It's Finally Here : Wales Palette #2


So I finally received my Wales Palette in the mail. I'm still so shocked that got it for $2 (gotta love ebay!). It was brand new; the only thing was that the top was damaged during shipping. I haven't had an opportunity to try the colors out yet, but I'm going out tonight so maybe I'll break them in. I'll take pictures of my various looks and keep up all posted!!!!!!!

Daily Holla: Cato's Knock-Offs

Yesterday I went to Cato to return a sweater, and I noticed that they sell knock-off brand perfume. Now I never purchase knock-offs that are blantenly knocking off a designer, but this something great for those of us on a tight budget. They have knock off brands of all the popular perfumes like, Ed Hardy, Paris Hilton's Can Can, Baby Phat Goddess, Burberry, and many others. The gift sets are only $8 and the large bottles are only $3. Now even though have knock-off sounding names like Tattooed (Ed Hardy), Yes Yes (Can Can), and Bamberry (Burberry), they smell excatly like their designer counterpart. Checkout http://www.catofashions.com/ to find a store near you.

Real Talk: Shopping Plus Size.....So Irratating!!!!!!

Hello everyone I just want talk about the shopping pains of the young, full-figured and voluptuous. As much as I love fashion, I really hate shopping. Some of you may as ask, "girl why is that?" Well my darlings, that is because I deal with the issue of finding things that fit me correctly and don't make me look older than I am. Real talk, I'm kind of tired of people thinking I'm 29 years old with kids. I can dress the hell out of other people but when I comes to myself....don't get me wrong I'm known as one of the best dressed females, but it's not as FIERCE as it could be. Now it just really pisses me off that I can never find a pair jeans that fit correctly. If you know me, I LOVE leggings...why? Because I was blessed with a few extra in the middle and jeans just push it up creating an unwanted roll that pokes through shirts. NOT CUTE AT ALL. Now, I know us Thick Madames, have always been told to wear long shirts and empire tops.....I don't know about you, but that just makes me look bigger and pregnant. SO NOT WHAT'S UP! Now, what I have found effective for me and other young women in that gray area between juniors/misses and plus/women's: tops with large ruffles, and tops with banned bottoms work with our body type nicely. And if you are heavy in the chest area, please avoid trapeze tops at all cost! But back to my fustration, the one thing that really grinds my gear is that plus size items are just so expensive! I understand that the price would be a little more because of the need for extra fabric, but if I'm going to pay more I don't want it to look like I got it from the sales rack at Deb's or Rainbow. Now for my more voluptuous diva's, there is a store, Torrid that has trendy plus size clothes, it a little high but that have nice clothes (check out http://www.torrid.com/) But as for me, if anyone has any solutions to this issue that plagues me so, fell free to drop a comment LOL. Love you all!

Daily Holla

Today's holla is about Milkyway 27 pcs. I've done them before, but I've done the one on my own head  for the first time last night. I really like it, it came out kind of FIRECE! (I will be posting a video on the look soon) It's only $12 a pack. For my ISU student's, it's only available at Kim's on Market. The good news is you really only need one pack of hair. This hair is so versatile. Endless possibilities!!!!

Make Me Over, Make Me Nice: Wales Palette Vs. The Icing



Ok so I'm addicated to Goldenchild789's channel on youtube, and one of the palettes that she mentioned she uses Wales palette. So I found some online that were like over $20. You know I'm always looking for a deal so I when to http://www.ebay.com/ and bidded on a "Wales" 96 eye shadow.  I ended up winning it for like $2. (What a deal right?) So I'm waiting on that. I did go to the Icing to day and they also have large eye shadow palettes (not sure how many colors but they have different sizes). The largest all shadow palette I was $20. If I get a little extra money, I will try it out. I will keep you all posted once I recieved my palette and post some pictures of some looks.

Daily Holla







Today's holla is about Outre Duby. This is the best $15 you will ever spend. For my ISU student's in Bloomington-Normal it is only available at Beauty Maxx on Rabb road and I believe it's $25 per box (so you may want to head to Chicago for some). It's pre-bumped hair that gives you that natural layered wrap look. I love it be cause it doesn't tangle! I used in a quick weave with an invisible part. Once I get my natural hair long enough to braid I'm going to do a sewing with it. But you should mos def try this hair out. I promise you'll thank me later. LOL.

You can check out this video on youtube by jamise79 to see what it looks like in a quick weave style. Thanks girl for the info!

New Found Love

Being a college student on a limited budget a had to cut a lot of expensive that I had in high school, including getting my hair done every two week. With my experience working as a shampoo girl in my aunt's shop, and my love of experimenting, I picked up on lot. Soon doing hair became my little side hustle. I decided to create a blog page about, hair, make-up, and fashion not just because those are the things I love, or because I want to just bring more publicity to my little "mini business" but because I want to help all young women to bring there inter beauty out.
