Nicki Minaj Multicolor eyeshadow look //THE RIGHT WAY!//

There's alot of amazing tutorial on YouTube but not everyone does what you want the right way! Well i found this girl on you tube who has the best tutorials for hair & makeup hands down! I love her videos! 

I found this video tutorial to be quite interesting because there' alot of females who do the multicolor eyeshadow look but the blending is #Turrible! Everyone likes Nicki (except me!) so this tutorial is a perfect example of the multicolor eyeshadow look! You will need certain supplies to do the job but trust me they will be worth it! WATCH THE VIDEO!!

What I put in my hair

FROM CURLY TO BONE STRAIGHT

many females ask me what do i put in my hair to keep it soft and curly. My hair is actually dry and damaged but i maintain it. Well first of all i use alot of leave in conditioners and foreign products. Once my aunt, a hair stylist, used Matrix Hair Texturizer in my hair to lengthen and loosen my curls (as you can see from the first pic at the top) make sure if you get a texturizer that a professional does it. Most of the products i use are from salon supply stores or from Colombia. But i got yall and sharing my secrets...

The Products

    //Carol's Daughter Healthy Hair Butter//
I use this as hair moisturizer when my hair is dry. Its kinda like Luster’s pink oil moisturizer hair lotion but not as oily. This hair butter is thick but works well. I also use a shine gloss to my hair when its dry. you can buy this product at Dillards, Sephora, or at carolsdaughter.com


//Salerm Capilar al germen de trigo//
This is another Hair conditioner but this one is from Spain. Its made from wheat germ and my favorite brand! I use this frequently, but right before I get my hair straightened. You wash your hair then add the product to your hair, then sit under the dryer for a couple of mins then rinse off your hair. You could use this as a leave in conditioner but remember a little goes a long way. [TO BUY THIS PRODUCT] Check out Salerm’s other products! ** i recommend the Salerm combination package set that comes with great shampoo, the wheat germ, and leave in conditioner for $49.95 at Bluebeez.com [BUY THIS PRODUCT]



//ALTER EGO Marrow and Placenta Hair Treatment//
Alter ego is from Italy and this is another rinse out hair treatment. Its made from bone marrow and hair placenta to make hair soft and shiny.






                 //La Bomba Deep Treatment//
So this product is DIVINE! Its from the Dominican republic and its made from some of the oddest shit ever, but I PROMISE is guaranteed to leave your hair A1! This is a rinse out hair treatment. [BUY THIS PRODUCT]









//Generic Value Products Concentrated Leave-In Treatment//
You can find this product at Sally’s beauty supply. This brand is the generic products of the expensive hair products and they work just as well & 5 times cheaper ($5.99). This is a leave in conditioner which perfect for daily use.












//Capibell's Tratamiento Baba de Caracol//
This is a Colombian hair conditioner that could be used also as a leave in hair conditioner. Its supposed to be made of snail slime but TRUST ME is smells wonderful. Use it after you wash your hair or when your hair is wet. [BUY THIS PRODUCT]











//Silk elements MegaSilk Moisturizing Treatment //
//Silk Elements Luxury Moisturizing Conditioner//
You can find Silk Elements at Sally’s beauty supply. Theses 2 products are conditioner treatments that smell like heaven but they are meant to be rinsed! I would mix both of them together and leave in your hair for awhile then rinse. Prices range from $7.99-$10.99.







So you can find majority of these products at Sally's Beauty Supply or at bluebeez.com i like to mix alot of these leave in treatments in my my hair let it sit for awhile under the dryer or without heat for about a hr and rinse it out. i hope these products work out for you!




DIY bleached cut off shorts

summer is still here and that sun is blazing hot! everytime i look at NastyGal.com and see theses cute cut off short like this....

i wanna get em but im not finna spend $60-$120 for sum tattered shorts! so i figured let me make my own

I patrol the internet and my favorite sites all the time and found how to make the shorts!
bitchielife.necolebitchie.com has a tutorial on how to make ur own cut off bleached shorts!

i made one and it came out like this...

If you want you pockets to be exposed make sure you cut the shorts asymmetrical and put frays in them to expose them and you could or dont have to make a cuff to your shorts!

I made my frays and holes using a steak knife and scraping it against the shorts. I would practice first on the cut off piece of the shorts to get it right!

GOOD LUCK GIRLS!



Shoes under $40

I totally understand some females are not all that thrilled about spending more than $30 for shoes. Im hella guilty for spending more than $90 on some pumps...

but I got some sites where you can find shoes $40. If you from Houston then you can see some of these shoes is kinda like what you gon find on Harwin dr. L0L

GoJane.com they got alotta shoes for cheap (i dont recommend the clothes tho!)

amiclubwear.com just like the site above i dont recommend the clothes!

lovemyshoes.com some new site i found

lulus.com a site i recommend for clothes and shoes




Stop the "Nude Lipstick Abuse!!"

#StopTheMadness.com ive seen way too many females take advantage of the fact that nude lipstick is in and yet they abuse it! Nude color is for everyone girls! First of all different shades of lipstick are meant for different shades of skin tones. Nude lipstick is meant to give a "natural" look and not a "caked on" look...and we shouldnt see it like for instance...


  
NOW...If your nude color makes ur lips look ashy like Tyrone Biggums then...

YOU NEED TO STOP ABUSING & Shawty that a #NoGo!

i suggest you should check out FashionBombDaily.com for tips on how to find the perfect nude lipstick for your skin tone. [CLICK HERE FOR THE LINK]


EXTRA TIP: Please oh Please! Mother of god DO NOT to CVS, Walgreens, RiteAid, or Walmart and purchase nude color lipstick and hope it looks good on you! Take ur behind to Mac, Sephora, or whatever makeup store and ask the professionals to recommend a nude lipstick for you!


How i feel about online shopping

i believe online shopping is essential when....


you live in a small town like Lubbock, TX like i do! 


when you go out u recognize clothes you seen before 


everyone u pretty much know shops at forever 21


you have a big day coming up and the nicest thing you can find is under $40



now when i online shop i dont like to buy certain things because im a picky person. For instance certain jeans look right on me.... i have to have a butt in my jeans and not all of them can do that!
im also picky about shoes.... I always go by my biggest shoe size which is a 7 1/2.
i also take a look at the material the clothes are made out of. sometimes looking at the picture doesnt tell you if the dress or whatever it is will look cheap or fit you tight like you want it to.

Example: you looking for a bodycon dress? Dont pick a dress thats entirely made out of cotton! It has to have some elastic in it!

Where i find my music...

so for new hip hop, rap, R&B music i also hit up different sites... im not a fan a piracy but i do believe in giving the album or what ever the case a test try... Neways i look up these sites for my music...


dopehood.com


hotnewhiphop.com


hiphopearly.com


they pretty much all have the same music but sometimes the links dont work so u mite have to go to a different site to get the song.

vibrant lipstick

so this curvaceous video vixen named Keyshia Dior, which u mite have seen her on Yo Gotti's video with the green lipstick, got her own makeup line... she has many different shades of lipstick... but this aint ur mama's usual lipstick....



im thinking about copping me one or too... idk how its gonna look on me but it doesn't hurt to try!

Not feeling the club tonite??

so if your not the type to be in the club everyday of the wkend there are some other stuff to do.. some of this might be hella obvious but it works!


  1. find a hot tub or a pool and invite some friends over along with ALCOHOL (of course!) for a late night swim! who know someone might get outta control and get bootyass naked! LMAO
  2. make nachos and have a movie night or play video games
  3. find a student college apt complex or a neighborhood for college student and raid a party! I suggest to party with white frats or just white ppl! they hella friendly and always inviting ppl over! (no offense to my white ppl but yall are friendly!) 
  4. if your a fashionista and ur bored at home...play dress up! mix and match clothes and find different outfits to wear.
  5. give your self a relaxing time with a bubble bath, wine, and music.....
  6. BEER PONG!
  7. hit up a random bar or place you never been before and meet new ppl! dont be shy! i do it and meet random ass ppl and they cool as hell!
  8. try a jazz bar... you might like it

Music to my ears

so all those who kno me know that i love music and have a good ear for it! i like rap, hip hop, old school, R&B, salsa, pop... shit a wide variety of music. Right now on my itunes im listening to.....


//Cocaine 80s : The Pursuit// its not rap music...more like a abstract of hip hop with R&B. its pretty #niceeee [CLICK TO DOWNLOAD]


//street king - Trae the Truth// rap music... Texas at its finest! Yo Gotti, Wayne, Jadakiss featured on there and its madd #niceee! follow @TRAEABN on twitter and go buy the album 


//Mischief mixtape - Miguel// so if you like Miguel here's more music thats great! its not like his songs on the radio... these are 10x better! [CLICK HERE 2 DOWNLOAD] and follow him at @migmoney


//Section .80 - Kendrick Lamar// i love it! the beats is crazy on this album! 



Fall fashions 2011

so fall fashions are now up for grabs at all online stores now.... online stores are already in stock for most fall stuff!


Tops

what i noticed is pretty hot again is Pussy Bow Blouses which look like this...
fun and flirty huh??? Prices can range from 30$-400$ depending
on the material used

I suggest dark colors or colors that blend well with a dark blazer like chic down there...

See i even got one! [bow not as visible in pic..SORRY!]
i got it at bebe for 89$

WHERE CAN I GET PUSSYBOW BLOUSES???

ASOS my absolute favorite site ;) they got a million of em 
[the link HERE will take u 2 all of the pussybow blouses]

Lulu's got some too... here are the links

Blazers
while watchin basketball wives the other day, i got an idea from Jennifer! That pink blazers she wore was nice. idk where she got it from but if you want me to find out i will. Neways so i thought colorful blazers should be in play, but i would go with pale or soft dark colors....

click link to get this blazer --> akira's royal blue cuffed blazer


click link to get this blazer ---> akira's coral cuffed blazer

Sequence Blazers are also cool i got one in white..... 
copped this BCBG blazer at dillards it was 119$ 

EXTRA TIP: you can also just go to a thrift store and find some funky old blazers and remix them. Or go to a store like Papaya or Wet seal. 
You can REMIX your blazers by...

  1. change the buttons on the blazer. Go to JoAnns fabrics or any fabric store and find some buttons
  2. add a pocket chain to the top blazer pocket...again go to JoAnns
  3. add a Handkerchief to the pocket using silk or some variation of fabric 

  

where to find accesories!?!?

I have a couple of sites where you can find accessories besides at forever 21 LoL!

GirlProps.com you can find some weird cool things on there

aldoaccessories.com yeh they sell accessories as well! pretty pricey but they are nice!

HotTopic.com kinda off they wall but you can find some great couture stuff!


MissWax.com this some dope shit... i just found it!. They got those long earrings everyone's rocking.

or you can be like me and make your own by exploring Hobby Lobby or Michael's... or have ppl make them for you! EITHER WAY! GOOD LUCK!!

Similar Gucci's 2011 spring line collection dresses

gucci.com

color blocking is the theme for the spring line. Now i know i know... spring is over and the skirt is 2,000$ and the top is also 2,000$, but if you really loved this line like i did, you're in dire need of it in your closet and u dont have 2Gs i got the solution for you! 

UPDATE!!! i just found this dress on CelebBoutique.com
it looks exactly like the Gucci spring outfit Kim K. had on!
Unfortunately its only on Pre-order but well worth it!
$171


shop.akira has dresses similar to this like the ones below


shop.lulu also has a dress similar to the gucci line but with a slight twist


EXTRA TIP: you could also just match up a colorful blazer with colorful trouser pants and call it day! Dont forget to add that touch of gold to the outfit!
