Keep a tomboy chic look girly by adding voluminous curls to your hair. Add hints of blush and mascara to make your face glow!

Add stylish pops to color to your look with fun sneakers! You can even make your look even cooler with a patterned or printed top. A top with a cool logo or saying is also a great conversation starter.

Beanies are always cute and practical in the cold weather. Mix and match your loo with lots of prints to keep your look fashionable, not boring. Also, prevent a tomboy look from being too baggy bu tucking the front piece of your shirt into your pants.

Love Her Style: Katy Perry Print Obsession

Katy Perry has always caught my eye from her catchy music, crazy hair color, and of course her quirky style. Lately I have been noticing Katy wearing lots of crazy prints that look super cute and wearable for everyday. Below are my top three favorite print-tastic looks from Katy and why I love them.

Who would think a skirt with man with mustaches could be so chic? The silhouette of this outfit is just so cute and perfect for spring and summer days. The print is so unique and fashionable which creates interest in the look. The visual interest in this look is what draws me in because it goes above and beyond everyday cheetah and zebra prints while still being wearable for everyday. I am also loving Katy's long flowing hair, gorgeous!

The print does so much for this chic a-line dress. This dress is perfect for a formal occasion, especially if you still want to look young, current, and fun. The lace sleeves help the dress to be a little more conservative while still showing a tad bit of skin while the blue sheer flowers add a girly cuteness to the look. Katy's shade add a fun factor to the look while her shoes go great with the grey/white under part of her dress.

This look is great for music festivals and causal weekends in the spring. I love her use of texture and pattern in this look as well as her vintage booties paired with peekaboo socks. The top is very boho with the flowiness and small flowers while the crotchet skirt gives off more of a vintage boho vibe. The belt makes sure that Katy's waist is not lost in the look while her side braid keeps the look simple and the hat adds a fashion edge and sun protection to the look.

Hair Obsession: AnnaSophia Robb

AnaSophia Robb

AnnaSophia Robb

I am obsessed with AnnaSophia Robb's blunt bob hair cut. The cut has such edgy and chicness to it while still being able to transform into so many looks. AnnaSophia's bob is a little bit longer than a traditional blog which makes it easier to curl, wave,clip, and even pull up into a small bun. The versatility of her hair makes me obsess over it and even have a moment of wanting to cut my hair to match the look.

Hair 101: Sleek Chic to Messy Waves

All throughout Fashion Week I saw sleek hair, messy hair, braids, buns, everything! However sleek hair and messy hair have always struck my interest and I love going back and forth between the two styles. Vanessa Hudgens knows exactly how to switch it up and look amazing! Plus Vanessa has the wavy hair down pat for the short/medium length hair girls. Keep on reading for tips on getting sleek and wavy hair.

Sleek hair gives off a look of chicness. The best way to get your hair super straight is with the use of a good flatiron, but make sure you keep the heat low so you don't burn any hair off. Now, to get the ultimate sleek look you do want to use a serum so your hair will all brush in the direction you want while staying together and very sleek. Be sure you don't apply too much to the ends of your hair or else your hair will lose its movement and appear weighed down. The sleek look can also be transformed into a bun or ponytail because the hair is straight and together. 

Messy wavy hair does need a little product to hold the curls which is perfect after wearing your hair in a sleek look. My favorite way to create wavy hair with minimum to know heat is by braiding my hair. The closer to your root you braid, the more hair will be wavy and the smaller and tighter the braid, then wavier and bigger your hair will be. Leave the braids in for a couple hours or overnight for the waves to form and take them out one by one afterwards. Never brush the waves, use your fingers or a very wide tooth comb. If you need to, use a wide barrel curling iron to perfect some of the waves.

The do' also has slight volume at the top of her head a distinct middle part.

Get The Look: Gabrielle Union

Look #1

Look #2

Fall is all about skinny jeans, boots, and jackets. Leather jackets, booties, and skinny jeans other than blue are all the rage with fall fashion and can be worn in so many combinations. Look #1 is a fun and youthful look while still being chic. The pink pants and neon zebra clutch with the  leather jacket balance out an edgy yet fun vibe while the tee and boots add chicness. Look #2 is all about being edgy which is why the look is all back, grey, and white. The colors may be considered "dull", but altogether they make an impact especially with the height of the shoes, design of the clutch, and the leather jacket. Try out one of these looks for an easy and cute transition into fall.

Trend Alert: Sneaker Wedges

Sneaker wedges are the latest trend in shoe wear and perfectly for the girl who loves heels or wants height while still being casual and comfty. Sneaker weddges come in so many styles and heights, you can go from basic black to a wild cheetah print to match your style or outfit. Don't forget you can even change the shoe laces to go with anything!

The sneaker wedges she is wearing are a sleek black which means they can be worn with casual, chic, sleek, and edgy looks very easily. For the girls who just like the easiness of the shoe, a good bit of sneaker wedges come with just a Velcro strap which means they are very easy to get on and off.

Beyonce
 

Beyonce is sporting a very similar, if not the same exact pair of sneaker wedges as Alessandra Ambrosio. However, Beyonce shows the edgier side of the show even though she is still looking casual with the addition of her oversized coat. Besides the cute, chic fashion aspects of the show, Beyonce must think the shoes are pretty comfortable for the day. She's carrying around a baby and that gets heavy! As of right now I am all over the sneaker wedge, they are cute, chic, comfortable, and trendy!



Dakota Fanning

Dakota Fanning brings out the more young side of the shoe which is great for teens and young adults like myself. I love that she choose a softer more neutral color, especially since most people go for the darker colors. Like Beyonce, Dakota paired the sneaker wedges with leather pants although Dakota has made the look completely different and ultra chic. The bag and shoes definitely make her outfit.

How are you feeling about the sneaker wedge?

Fashion 101: Blake Lively

I love surfing through pictures of Blake Lively, she always dresses fabulously and is her own stylist! This white dress is so classy and chic while not looking too old. The length is perfect for a special occassion where you don't want to show too much skin and the sleeves add flair.  The sparkly low-heel shoes, the dress accent, and the ring and bracelet look very magnificent and give a very classic vibe. The beachy waves and soft barely there makeup allow the outfit to stand out even more.

Get The Look: Sofia Vergara

Look #1

Look #2

Sofia Vergara definitely shows a love of colorful scarves and a super cute bright yellow bag. Sofia is not only showcasing a great fashion tip of dressing up a white but her outfit is a perfect look to recreate. In Look #1 Sofia wears a sheer,loose white tank top that contrasts with dark wash skinny jeans. I love that she cuffed the jeans to show off her fabulous pumps and threw on a colorful scarf that matches her bracelets. The yellow bag is a perfect pop of color and big enough to hold any nessecary items. Look #2 has to be my favorite because Sofia took a basic white tee an paired it with gorgeous wide leg jeans which may even be considered casual trouser pants. Once again Sofia added a bright scarf and her neon yellow bag. She added more accessories like a long statement necklace, chuncky bracelets, and a cocktail ring. Sofia Vergara is definitely rocking a simple look and making it fabulous and chic!

Get The Look: Beyonce

Beyonce looks very urban and chic with this look. She always gives off a glam vibe and walks in sky high pumps like their gym sneakers. Beyonce is also one of the only people I have ever seen to be able to totally rock suspenders. This look is great for a day out shopping, an afternoon at the movies, or even lunch with the girls. I love that Beyonce is wearing straight leg high waisted jeans as an alternative to skinny jeans, they prevent the look from being too sexy. The plaid button down is super cute especially since it's fitted. Beyonce even warms the look up by throwing on a trendy jacket with a fabulous collar which is perfect for winter. I just love Beyonce's footwear, the color of the pumps are awesome and the height is magical. She also adds a long statement necklace, a small cocktail ring, suspenders, and a white oversized purse. This look is great for anyone wanting an urban, chic outfit for an everyday street style.
