Aria Montgomery from Pretty Little Liars!

I love Aria from Pretty Little Liars, she is so spunky! Sorry for the weird 70's lingo I didn't know what else to put. Ok so I am gonna put up 4 outfits inspired by her, within this week, maybe even today! So now you can find all these things easily and that you can buy fairly cheap!

1) So this is her daily look kinda comfy something you could wear on a regular basis, a faux leather moto jacket from Charolette Russe,  http://www.charlotterusse.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11218125&cp=4078198.4238855 ,
a cute soft tank from Aerie  because Aria is into darker colors and warmer tones so I thought this would work well for her! And I think she would wear this with that jacket and shirt, so trust me if you try them on together you will love the result!

Some vertical netted tights if you want something that pops more get the black instead of gray.http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=acc%5Flegwear&product%5Fid=2083476942&Page=all&pgcount=25#

Now on to the bottoms. I was kind of stuck on what to do. I thought she loves skirts and jeans. So i didn't know what to do. But since I have to tights I went with this skirt.I love this skirt because it's very patterned and matches the blue top and brown faux leather jacket it definitely has that edgy look that Aria wears daily and it works!

Shoes are the hard part, most nice, decent shoes are more than $30, these are $30.80 just hardly over $30 and I think they are perfect I didn't want anything to tall or too short because it could have totally ruined the whole outfit. http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=footwr&footwr%5Fstyle=&footwr%5Fsize=&footwr%5Fcolor=&footwr%5Fprice=&product%5Fid=2083874004&Page=all
I hope you like my first Aria outfit! Other tips for Aria style, don't go to edgy add some florals and girly things like that, go with like ripped things too don't go to girly just a happy medium! Thanks for reading the next Aria outfit will come soon!!  xoxoxo G

Pretty Little Liars!

Is anyone a fan of that show? I just can't get away from that show it's amazing, it has pulled me in and there is no escaping! So i wanted to talk about their fashion on pretty little liars. I really love their clothes they are so cute, and I have found some real-life clothes that we can actually afford! Ok so this first outfit is based off of Spencer Hastings outfit, she is the goody-two shoes in the show the good preppy girl, or at least that's what we think. She is very vintage, and adorable. Now her jacket is a military/peacoat, it's probably 100's of dollars but the one I'm gonna show you affordable  I think it resembles her jacket very well, and is perfect, a subtle hint of military chic and perfect for this cold weather we are having! (FOREVER 21, $44.80)
Now these are skinny boyfriend jeans, not the exact same as Spencer's but you can just get a bigger size is you are in love with the more loose look,  these are actually and ok fit, don't ya think? ( HERITAGE1981 $24.90) Now on to the oxfords, those are hard to find, under $100 at least, I like these better than spencers and I could not find anything remotley close to hers' under $400. So I have chosen something even better Canvas Striped Oxfords, they are super cool! I love them, I would so get some :) If i had the clothes to match.  (Forever 21.com $22.80 Canvas Striped Oxfords) That's Spencer's outfit! Check back later in the week for Emily outfits, Hanna, and Aria! :) PS: I'm sorry I couldn't find the hat! I was just desperate to post this, but I will still look out for one just like that! :)

New Store Alert!!!

I didn't know- but I found out my state DOES have a Charlotte Russe! Last night we went to the mall to get my dad gloves for Christmas, and my mom and I decided that we were going to go to Charlotte Russe! I loved it, all the stuff was too cute, and it was decorated for Christmas so well, they had a ton of shoes and accessories, and practically everything was on sale! It was awesome. Next Thursday I am going to the mall with my best friend and her cousin, so I can't wait. Plus my Aunt sent me my $100! Thanks Susie!! Now I can't wait to spend it all in that store! Yes! Merry one week before christmas!

Well, I got my wish!!

Well it has officially snowed!! I am so psyched :) We got 3 inches and some blizzardy conditions. Sadly, not enough to cancel school for today. But, I am getting some more winter clothes soon since my Aunt is sending me $100 for Christmas this week! For some reason I'm always low on cute winter clothes.  I love shopping at Aerie, and my mom's boyfriend is getting me a $100 gift card there. Or maybe $50. The stuff there isn't on the cheap side so I hope it's $100. I gotta look cute for the guys at school! Enjoy this wintery wonderful week!

Only if it would snow..

I have been waiting..and waiting..and waiting for snow since October, patiently I might add, and winter is one of my favorite times of year, I especially love the holidays. So it's quite upsetting to me when we don't have snow sticking on the ground in December. Snow is just so beautiful. So I bet your asking, what the heck does this have to do with your blog? Well to tell you the truth I really don't know. I felt like I wanted to bring it up. OH YA! I know, I wanted to bring up some really yummy warm low cal drinks I have come across lately. Now, also, before I forget, my friend has suddenly had a very strong int rest in coffee, so this is also why I'm bringing this up now, maybe you like it too? Even though I detest  it, which by the way in french is detester! :) I'm taking french this year he he ok back to warm yummy drinks! Oh and, again, by the way the list will have higher and higher calories as it goes, ok enjoy!!


1. Gingerbread Latte- Starbucks 
 This closely resembles those delicious gingerbread cookies I love, or we all love. And it ( the small, 8 oz) is only 150 calories, and with Whole Milk it's only 40 calories more! Now, you really don't need to get the big one do you? No of course not. Eggnog Latte




2.Reindeer Drinks- Caribou Coffee


Now this is the company's description of it- "Our Reindeer Drink is creamy steamed milk infused with caramel, vanilla, raspberry, or any flavor you choose." Doesn't that sound pretty dang delicious to you? Well, sadly they don't have a picture of it so I have found one on trusty google! You know what, I found out trusty google isn't all that helpful sometimes, so heres a caribou! Oh right, and I forgot to mention this is 240 calories, check it out!

3. Mint Condition- Caribou
Sorry this is another Caribou Coffee!! But this one is minty and hot and delicious, but a surprising 640 calories! WOAH! But to tell you the truth it looks amazing!mintcondition and, it has ANDES MINTS! my fav ;) I freakin. love.those.things. :) they are so good. YUM!

Stay warm this winter i''ll be back with more wintery post's!

My fashion inspiration

Ya know, some celebrity's go to far with fashion *cough cough* Lady Gaga. But I really do admire her clothes how out there she is, but that is another topic far into the future- like next week. But who's closet I really wish I had, is Taylor Swifts, how soft, pretty, and floraly her clothes are is awesome :) i could just easily steal all of her clothes! I especially love this dress. It reminds me of a birthday cake I had :) It was an awesome cake it was light pink and had cherry trees on it. She looks so sweet and approachable. What celebrity inspires your fashion? I also love Jennifer Aniston's fashion sense she is so chic yet comfy, it's awesome! You know she's forty one, and they had her picture, in Seventeen! I would love to inherit this look when I'm her age! Thanks for reading!

6 things NOT to do while you shop!

  Now you don't want to feel down on yourself before you try on clothes, now do you?
 Here are tips to keep you from  being a downer in the dressing room.

1. Don't drink pop!
  Pop makes you bloat, which is bad for when you try on clothes, well duh because it doesn't fit you right!

2. No carbs, or fatty junk food!
 It lowers your self esteem and totally makes you just feel icky.

3. Exercise!
 When you exercise you feel amazing, I'll give you that, but it totally washes you out, now this applies to make-up a little more, but it makes you feel bad about yourself, and once again it lowers your self esteem.

Now here are some tips of what not to do in the dressing room:

1. Evaluate yourself.
 Look, I know it's hard when you are standing in front of that big giant mirror and you feel like you are too big, too tall, too short, too thin, too this, too that, and on and on. But it's horrible to grab your stomach, and be like " I want to loose this." it's bad for you! DON'T DO IT! Especially don't compare yourself to all those skinny, gorgeous girls. Don't even think about it.

2.  Nope.
 Just don't pick clothes and say "I'll look fat in this." That is a major put down to yourself. \

3. Be optomistic!
  If say, red, isn't the best color on you, try it on anyways. Don't expect it to look bad! Try new things, it might work.

Clothes that flatter every body!

If you need to fix somethings about your self you don't like, here are some easy ways to do that with clothes!

 Slim Curves: Use a black flouncy dress with an pleated skirt that comes in at the waist, it's very flattering and shows your smallest parts. Add a cropped jean jack you can wear with anything, it really is an investment.

 Look Taller: Look for all in one dresses, it raises your waist-line which makes it look like you have "spidery long legs".

Try this: Embellished Shimmer Dress $29.00 at Charlotte Russe stores

Create an Hourglass: Get a dress with a v-neck the shows off the bust with a front cinches at your waist, therefore creating an hourglass figure.

Try this: Satin Flower Print Kimono at Forever 21$22.80


Streamline hips: Extra volume ( bigger tops) on top balances you out to make your hips appear bigger!

 Try this: Pierce Banded Mini Skirt- Wet Seal

How to look cute for a sleepover!

So you hate looking like you have on a full face of make-up on, or looking washed out, at group slumber parties, right? You don't know the perfect medium! So here is exactly what you should do to look cute, and not over-done, at slumber parties!

1: HAIR-
   Flip your head over and put it all up in a high ponytail which is adorable, and comfy!

2: SOME makeup-
  Apply some blush onto your high cheekbones and if you have an oval face, swipe it up, across from your eye. NEVER EVER EVER put it in just a circle, you'll look like a clown, sorry I know, strong, but I'm saving you from some embarrassment.

2: Lips- Apply some light chapstick to keep your lips looking fresh and plump!

3:Clothing- Put on your adorable pj's!


4: Shoes- Throw on adorable comfy flip flops,



AND ENJOY THE PARTY!
