Billboard Awards Beauty and Fashion



Miley Cyrus

Carrie Underwoods

Jordin Sparks

Katy Perry

Zooey Deschanel

Now the Billboard Awards are definitely more casual than most awards shows and holds a room full of young and hip stars. The outfits for the Billboard Awards go from princess gowns to funky tights and sneakers. Personally I love watching the award show's red carpet to discover new party styles, popular color schemes, and gorgeous beauty looks. Miley Cyrus was very revealing at the award show, but her beauty look was even more striking! I love the tousled hair, thick eyebrows, long lashes, and glossy lips, very Marilyn Monroe-esque. Carrie Underwood went total princess decked out in jewels and lots of pinks and purples. Carrie's look is a complete dream fit with magical wavy hair. Jordin Sparks' look is my favorite from head to toe. The lace dress is trendy while still be dressy and casual at the same time as well as her cute side pony and accessories. Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel's outfits were not on my top list, but I love their use of glitz and glam while still keeping a low key vibe. They are definitely trendsetting with the light, diamond colors and sparkling shimmer and glitter.

Get The Look: Summertime Perfection

Miranda Cosgrove in Teen Vogue

I received my Teen Vogue magazine in the mail today and I am completely mesmorized by Miranda Cosgrove's cover look. Miranda has the total summer look with a nude, bronzed glow and slick hair. The white shades and dress give a gorgeous contrast to her tanned skin making her stand out. This look is great to look fresh during the summer while still having a fierce vibe. All you need to recreate the look is a great foundation, bronzer, nude gloss, eyeshadow(that matches your brows), and for the hair a light hair gel.

1. Begin with a clean face and conceal any blemishes.
2. Apply foudation all over the face. Make sure it goes on smooth with no streaks.
3. Take the bronzer and apply it like blush. Start at the lower apples of your cheeks and into your temples. Blend to prevent harsh lines.
4. Fill in your brows and create definition by using an eyeshadow close to your brow color.
5. Apply a nude gloss and 2 coats of mascara.
6. Apply a gel or serum throughout the hair and comb it backwards for a slick and sleek hair look.

Remember practice makes perfect and rock the look with lots of fierceness and confidence!

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!

Alert: I'm In Seventeen Magazine!!

I am majorly, extremely, off the walls excited! I received my June issuse of Seventeen magazine yesterday and as I flipped through I saw my nail design. I was super surprised because I didn't know my nails would be featured for the #YOLO article and when I saw it I immediately pulled out my phone to compare the hands. They were an identical match! Ahhh! I am just soooo happy, even if it is just my hand, I always knew my nail designs would be featured somewhere! I have 100% faith that next time it will definitely be a full body and maybe even an article! A little dream of mine is to be in the Seventeen Magaine style council and even one day have my own fashion and beauty magazine! What are some of your dreams or goals? Be sure to take a look at page 148 to see the picture of my YOLO nails!

Love Her Look: Miley Cyrus



Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus' style is evolving more and more and she grows in age and this style has got to be my favorite. I have noticed how much Miley loves to wear high-waisted jeans and shorts, vintage band tees, and fitted strapless tops. If there were ever a chance to have Miley's closet I would definitely want to be the first to win! Miley's acid wash jeans are taking it back to the late 80's and early 90's while still holding a modern edge because the acid look is back in. I love that she tucked in the futted black top and how it fits and covers her chest just the right way. The red blazer is a perfect accent to the entire look and pulls the outfit together and adds a pop of color. Donlt forget her new signature circle shades that give off a cool quirky vibe.

Fashion 101: Rock the Maxi Dress

Lauren Conrad

Rachel Bilson

The maxi dress is sometimes a difficult piece to wear because it can either look too long and baggy or resemble a pajama dress. The best ways work a maxi dress start off with your own posture and overall look. Be sure to stand up straight so that the dress elongates your body rather than shorten it. You also want to be aware of having your hair combed and face cleaned to prevent a "just got out of bed" look. Now that is all taken care of  begin by adding an accessory to your maxi to help cinch your waist. Lauren Conrad cinched her waist by using a thick black ribbon while Rachel Bilson threw on a jean vest that ended right at her waist. A great pair of wedges or flat strappy sandals work well with maxi dresses because they help lengthen you out even more and wedges prevent the dress from dragging. Don't forget to add personal touches to make the maxi your own and rock it on casual sunny days!

Fashion 101: Structured Rompers



Solange Knowles

Solange Knowles is totally rocking that romper and it's perfect any day out. I have never seen a structured romper, but Solange's is amazing and fits a sleek frame extremely well. The color of the romper is a greeat color for summer because it acts as a neutral and can be accesorized with pops of color. The small, gold belt gives a hint of sparkle to the outfit while the shoes add a Grecian mood. The perfect dose of oomph was added into the outfit by adding a birght red bag. Solange has got the spring/summer casual look down and trendsetting with her structured romper. Try out a romper look lady and don't forget to accessorize!
