Layering Up For Fall

Fall is here and all those warm sweaters and all that layering is a must for that fall weather. This outfit is a perfect example for layering things that you never actually thought you could. 



I layered a sequins collard long sleeve shirt from Forever21 for $25.00CAD with a cropped knitted sweater from Forever21 for $29.00CAD and just folded my sleeves a little and also added a big chunky bracelet. I also found this thick pair of high waisted tights on sale from The Bay for $40.00CAD. I love these tights I found and the are perfect for the fall because they are thick and I can still wear cropped shirts with them with out freezing my butt off! 


I also added this thick belt just to add a little more. I got this belt as a gift but it was from Aldo. 


Having that little bit of sparkle can add more glitz to your outfit. Everyone needs a little sequins in their outfits! 

Hope you enjoyed this OOTD!

Pretty In Pink


This a new OOTD that is more on the classy side. 
I got this new skirt as a gift and I wanted to wear it so bad, and I finally did. I put together this cute outfit for church this past Sunday and it is one of my favorite outfits I have ever put together. My silk shirt is from Jacob and it was $15.00CAD and my skirt was a gift but I know it was from Maciano. 


I love how this skirt is pleated and has a sheer overlay from the light pink underneath. It comes up to my knees and I find the length perfect for me. I paired it with some studded flats and a collar necklace to complete this look. 


I got this choker from Aldo for $20.00CAD. 

I hope you enjoyed this cute outfit!

Wedding Fever


This is a new make-up look I created that would be amazing for a Indian/Cultural or a traditional wedding. These two looks are completely different because every girl is different and every girl has a different make-up routine. These two looks I created are great for those bridal pictures and emphasize anyone's natural beauty. 


This first look is perfect for a Indian/Cultural wedding. Depending on what you are wearing, the eye shadow colors can differ. Adding a dark contour color for the crease can really complement the eyes and really shape the eyes. I have a video you can check out on my YouTube channel that shows you how I contour and highlight the eyes. To make this look even more beautiful, adding a medium/thicker "cat eye" liner look with fake lashes can take the smokey eye even further. 


With a heavier eye you want to still keep it as natural on your wedding day. I did a very natural highlight and contour all over the face to bring out the natural features. 


This is a beautiful more natural look for a traditional wedding. With the eyes, use more natural skin tones to bring out the eyes more. 


Using more earth tones can really make that natural look even more beautiful. Keeping the liner on the thinner side and adding fake lashes can easily complete this more natural bridal look. For the lips, a very natural/glossy lip would look perfect and complete that natural look for your big day! 

Tips for Bridal Make up
If you are going for a more natural look, you still have to add a little more than what you would wear on a normal day. Packing on the make up isn't a bad thing in this case because in pictures or in videos, the camera doesn't pick up as much as you think. With adding a bit more eye shadow or darkening your liner, that can make a big difference to how your pictures will turn out. It might feel like you have a lot on, but in your pictures it will look flawless! 


I hope you enjoyed this special make up look!

Still Enjoying The Sun!

This month has been amazing to me so far and the weather is also a part of that. The sun has not disappointed and had done its job coming out everyday and making each day more beautiful than the last. Today's outfit was airy and something I quickly put together last minute before I had to rush out the door. 



With a rustic feel I felt a little collage would be in order for you guys to get an idea of today's outfit. 


I wore a long sleeve collared jean shirt I bought from Winners for $39.99CAD. I tied it about half way so I could pair it with my maxi skirt. I got this polka dot maxi skirt from Forever21 for $24.00CAD. 



I got this choker necklace as a gift, but I wear it with everything collared. I love this look and have been wearing it all summer. I love that little extra it adds and I think it completes the outfit. 


I decided to braid my hair today and did this cute french braid that goes behind my head. It was cute and simple and really easy to do. I wanted to do something a little different than just putting my hair in a ponytail so I decided to do a quick braid. 

I hope you enjoyed this look for today!  
You can find me also on my Facebook page to keep updated and see some awesome makeup looks I've done!

City Park Life

Summer is coming to an end and I am trying to enjoy those sunny days that show up randomly. I haven't posted anything for a while and I am sorry for that, but this post is just showing some beautiful scenic roots around where I live. This summer for me has been amazing. I would of liked to do more but there is always next year. 




My friend and I went around some farm land and visited a local park to take some pictures and just enjoy the day. 









(I dressed like I was going hiking, but we were just walking through a city park). 







We were going up this hill and started to hear scary noises, we were scared to keep going on but at the top of the hill was more power lines and a empty gravel area... 

This is just how I spent my day out and about in my city. If you ever have a free day and have nothing to do, get out and see what your city really has to offer. It beats staying at home!


I hope you guys enjoyed this post!
There will be more looks and beauty posts coming soon!
