Cute Piercings!

Exactly 3 weeks until I'm out of school and blogging more.  Can't wait to be more active on this blog again!<3 Anyways here are some cute piercings I like.

Isn't this adorable?! Seriously, I would wear this.

I love this piercing so much.  I've probably already posted this.  I'm hopefully getting this done over the summer too!

My cuff earring from Hot Topic.  Everyone loves it, and I do too.

The captions say all.

Face of the Day - Ice Cream Flavored

Hey guys!

So my make up doesn't actually taste like ice cream.  I just chose a creamish color, light pink, and brown for the colors.  It reminded me of vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate ice cream and those are basically the main ice cream flavors.  Also a reminder, my eyebrows look hideous.  So here it is:

Both eyes, open.

Both eyes, looking down.

I loveeee this picture.  Except the eyeliner isn't as straight as I want it.

One eye, closed.

What do you guys think?

Outfit of the Day: Classy Spring Look

So this is what I wore on 5/11.  The dress is from Forever21, the belt is from H&M, and the shoes are from Charlotte Russe.  The dress is a classy navy blue high neckline dress.  It originally came with a red belt, but I decided that was too dressy.  So I dressed it down with my springy/summery orange-ish braided belt from H&M.  I added my "worker" heels to dress it down a bit more, plus I like the way they look with the belt and dress.  I wore this to school for a presentation, but I would honestly wear this anywhere on a casual day.  Also I threw my hair up in a messy bun and my make up was kind of natural.  So the focus was obviously on the outfit.

What do you guys think?

Ombre Nails - First Try

The colors I used.

Bottle shot!

The harsh lighting showed off the nails the best, despite the bad look of the photo overall.

Normal lighting.

This nail turned out best.

The mess.  It took all of those to clean the nail polish up around my nails.

So it's not letting me add text to the top of this post.  Oh well!  So I tried to make it look like a summery sunset.  I actually really like these.  They may not be perfect, but they're me.  I like subtle craziness.  I really don't know how to describe these nails, obviously.

I painted these Wednesday afternoon and it's Friday.  They haven't chipped at all.  Which is great because 1. I love them and 2. Normally N.Y.C. nail polish chips an hour after I paint them.  I hope these last me until next Wednesday at least.  I seriously love them. 

Oh and if you want to know the exact colors I used here they are: OPI Nail Envy Nail Strengthener, N.Y.C. Fuchsia Shock Creme 111A, Times Square Tangerine Creme 112, N.Y.C. Taxi Yellow Creme 114A, and OPI RapiDry Top Coat. 

I used the sponge technique to do this, and the mess happened because the sponge was too large.  Also partly because I suck at being clean while painting my nails.  I painted on the nail strengthener first, then the fuchsia shock creme (2 coats).  Then I poured the pink, orange, and yellow onto a plastic bag right by one another.  I swirled them a little bit with a tooth pick.  Then I dipped the sponge in and covered my hands, I mean nails, with it.  I repeated the pour, swirl, sponge steps a few times.  Then I added the top coat.  It's super easy, just less effective I guess. 

What do you guys think?  Are there any nail trends you've tried that you like?

Sweet 16's and Glittery Things

Hey guys!  So yesterday was one of my best friend's Sweet Sixteen.  It was so much fun.  We hung outside (the humidity killed my hair) for the first hour or so.  Then a caricature came and drew all of our pictures.  After the caricature left she opened her presents and we ate cake.  Then we went back outside and sat around a fire.  It was a great time.  So here are some pictures from last night. (Oh and yes, I know my eyebrows are bad.)

My make up!

Isn't it pretty?

And shiny?!

Urban Decay glitter tattoo.  It stayed on while I slept! Nothing messed up!

I really liked my make up last night.  I won a crownbrush palette recently, and I am loving the colors and pigment it gives off.  It's great.

What did you guys do this weekend?

xxoo,

Feeling Talkative: Life Update

Hey guys! I am super sorry for being so inactive in general.  I have been so busy in general this year.  I have around 6 weeks of school left (2 of those being finals and stuff like that), then I go to spend basically my entire summer with my Dad.  I can't wait! Well, obviously.

Anyways exactly a week ago, last Tuesday, I got my permit! So that means I can drive with an adult now.  Which is pretty exciting.  I'm going out for my first lesson with my Mom tonight.  I should be able to get my license on October 24th of this year.  I can't wait!

Also I've been trying to do better in school.  Last marking period I didn't do as good as I like, so I'm trying to step it up this marking period.  It's boring, but I need to do it.

Oh and I've been trying to work out more often and eat healthier.  The past three days I've exercised for at least an hour.  I'm really starting to get addicted to it.  I'm not doing this for anyone besides me though.  I want to be healthy.  I'm doing this because I love myself.  Seriously, it's one of the greatest feelings to have those thoughts. 

Anyways, I'm going to go now. I'm about to drive for the first time! Eep!

xxoo,
Claire.
