Fall Makeup Trend: Neogrunge Makeup

Hello my feisty readers! Fall makeup is looking very reminiscent of past trends, and one that particularly stood out to me was the comeback of grunge elements in this year's looks. I was flipping through a few magazines, and even noticed a few people on the streets wearing daring shades of lipstick that was more commonly found in the 90's.Rich chocolate browns and brownish plum lipsticks of yesteryear. How about you readers? Would you ever rock this past trend? Who knows, it may last for the rest of the winter.

Cute Spring Trends 2012

Hello my treasured readers! How are all of you today? I know there are many of you that prefer spring fashion and makeup more than any other season, so this post is just for you. I’ve compiled a list of my favourite trends for spring, and I hope you enjoy them as well. Keep reading to find out!

Full Fringe

This is one trend that I am currently taking part in. I did not realize its comeback until I saw others wearing it as well. This classic hairstyle boasts a more modern edge, as the fringe appears fuller and slightly wispy at the ends. It I best to have this type of fringe so it just skims your eyebrows. To get the most out of this trend, try either keeping your fringe nice and straight, or slightly mussed.

Peplum Skirts

Peplum skirts are perfect for this season. The full skirt manages to complete an outfit, without having over-accessorize. This peplum skirt (pictured below) is very feminine, and seems business-appropriate as well.

Pastels

  Spring and pastel colours are synonymous with each other. Soft pastels can be applied to everything this season, such as nail vanish, clothes, makeup, and yes, lilac hair counts as well. There are countless ways you can incorporate this refreshing colour palette into your life, so try them all if you can!

Hair Chalking

Hair chalking, is one method of dip-dying hair, however, it is temporary. This method is fun to use, as you can do it in your own home, with non-toxic chalk pastels, water, and a hair appliance (such as a hair curler) to set the colour. This method is perfect, if you desire vibrant purple locks, but do not want the long-commitment. I will consider a tutorial on this fun trend, so stay tuned!

Artistic Eyeliner

This trend is pretty versatile, as you can change up the look as much as you like. Modern versions of the popular cat-eye liner are making more of an appearance this season. If a mere cat eye is not your cup of tea, try getting a bit creative with your liner, by adding an extra wing, or making an intricate design. All of the options mentioned will do very well this season. 

Well, there are my favourite trends for this season. Young, vibrant, and fresh looks, that are sure to please even the toughest of critics. Thank you for reading my post, and stay tuned for more tips!




Happy Spring

Trend Update: Long Skirts

Hello lovely readers, how are you guys feeling today? I hope you're in the mood for my latest trend update. A classic summer staple, the long flowy skirt, gets a makeover this year. The overall shape of the skirt remains. The fresh look of the skirts involves the use of sheer fabrics, instead of the standard opaque shades. This fresh changes adds more of a care-free beach go-er vibe than ever before, as it makes it easier to just throw on an over-sized graphic tee and a flowy skirt. You can never go wrong with the original white skirt, it goes with everything.

If you`re worried about wearing a see-through skirt, don`t be, as some of these skirts have a built in half slip( available in thigh length to ankle length) to make this more approachable for the slightly modest folk. Another change evident among these skirts, is the use of more sweet-girly accents, such as lace detailing all over the fabric and pleating. The use of tulle fabric reminiscent of a ballerina tutu,is also popular among this skirts, which add a grunge feeling to this innocent staple. If you are an avid trend watcher, then look out for skirts with bright splashes of colour, but not neon, you do not want to over work the trend. Also,try to look for skirts with watercolour-like detailing, it give a more relaxed yet put together feel. These skirts can be worn with lace up boots, heels, basically anything. There`s the trend update,now go and get creative!

Happy Experimenting,
