InStyle March 2012

Hey!  Today I'm posting about the March 2012 InStyle magazine, which I haven't finished going through (I probably will tomorrow) but thought I'd share the cover with you and my thoughts on a few of the trends.



First of all, LOVE this cover.  The colors are amazing, and Jennifer Aniston looks absolutely gorgeous!

Here are some trends that are featured, and my opinions on them.  What are yours?  Comment yay or nay :)

Bold eyebrows



I could not do this, my eyebrows just wouldn't work! haha :D  But it's OK, I guess.

Wild nail art














Two HUGE thumbs up!!  I love this trend and actually have a package of Sally Hansen nail stickers (many thanks to my bestie!) to try out soon!

Pleats

















My uniform dresses had pleats in kindergarten.  I think if you do it right, though, you don't have to look uniform-y.  For instance, I have a tennis skirt with a few big pleats in it and it's cute!  There is a way ;)

All white
















I know some people would look stunning in this, and I really like this trend...but I don't think it would work on me, sadly :(

"Wet hair" style















Ah...not really.  I suppose it could be done right (any of these could) but not my fave.

Suits with shorts



Surprisingly, I kinda like this one.

Hope you enjoy, I'll probably post more about spring fashion when I'm done and will definitely do a Polyvore post or two with springy outfits!

Cropped Tops and TOMS

I made my own crop top a while ago after I watched this video:

I was really inspired to revamp one of my old gray tees haha!  So recently I've been really loving them and think that they are great for spring/summer especially in the summer because you can throw them on with shorts or over a bathing suit or really whatever :)  Here's the crop top that I made:


Then a few weeks later I stumbled upon this cute one while shopping with my friends at Forever 21 and I was just thrilled!!!


I love this.  So much.  It reminds me of Harry Potter and Jack Sparrow and One Direction.  Whenever I wear it, it makes me happy, and it made me sad when it was still hanging up to dry yesterday and I couldn't wear it.

Another topic!  TOMS!


Yeah, I know that everyone has them and that it makes me look really lame because I'm so behind on the bandwagon blogging about them.  But I've gotten around to it finally because.....


I now have some!  My aunt gave them to me and I still don't know how to thank her!!!  Granted, I haven't had much time to think about how because she got them for me just an hour ago.  But I'm brainstorming hard because I've wanted some for a long time and she decided that she would get some for me and my cousin, isn't that just soooo nice?  Thanks so much to her!

The style is the canvas ash (pictured above) which is kind of the staple color that I see lots of people wearing.  I love the color though and it seems to go with everything!

Here is a Polyvore featuring crop tops and TOMS :)  Enjoy!

Sally Hansen Virtual Violet





Sally Hansen Virtual Violet is a vivid lavender color.  A close match of color in a lipstick by Lime Crime:


Smooth application, just like all of the Sally Hansen polishes I've tried, and I only needed one coat for these photos.  (The flower matched the polish, which is why it's there if you were wondering!)  This is a great shade for spring, the bright pastel is lovely :)  This will be on my nails soon!!

Team Spirit!!

Team Spirit!!




This is my set that I entered for a recent contest on Polyvore!  If you're interested I believe there are 8 days left.  I would totally wear this :)  Actually...I would totally wear most of my sets haha!  I wouldn't design something I don't like, what's the point in that?  If I say that every time I put up a Polyvore post, I'm sorry, but you'll probably hear that a lot ;)  Hope you enjoy!!

Gorgeous by Sinful Colors

Here are some swatches of the Sinful Colors polish called "Gorgeous".  The name, while not super creative, is totally accurate--this polish is definitely gorgeous!!  It reminds me of mermaids and the ocean, two of my very favorite things in the entire world!



I love the shimmer in this polish, the only thing (not a complaint, just a little warning) is that the brush seems to "store" polish in it, so that just when you think you've got the right amount in it, some more comes out from the brush.  This took me by surprise when I was first applying it, but then I realized that if you tap off most of the polish from the brush you get a great application.  I believe I used 2 coats for these photos.

This polish (along with a few others that I might show you soon) was given to me by a friend, so I'm not sure what price it is, but it is a great polish and I definitely recommend it!

PS-I love nail polish, so you bet you'll see more of these posts in the future!! :)

On the Plane

On the Plane




This would be a very good outfit to have, I do have the eyeshadow and it is AMAZING, would totally recommend it!  I believe you can buy Bare Escentuals products at Sephora, Nordstrom, and of course Bare Escentuals stores (you could also buy it on their websites).  See y'all soon!!

Alice's Adventures

Alice's Adventures





This was one of my cooler Polyvore collages...actually more collage-y than just the fashion ones, this was definitely a fantasy, not-exactly-what-I'm-gonna-wear-to-school look :)  More of a creative thing!  Thought you might like it so here it is!
