Transitioning From Day to Night

 Finally, an outfit related post! It's been ages since I do one. Why haven't I? I've just been feeling more attuned to make-up and reviews, that and no one ever wants to take a picture of my outfits... Sad, really. Anyway! Since I did a collaboration with Desi, I decided to go ahead and do a transition outfit from day to night! If you're like me then you're always on the go and sometimes don't have the time to go an change for a night out. So this post is a bit of help on how simple you can take an outfit from a day casual look to a more night out look. Enjoy!

  Going to uni or anywhere sometimes entails being comfortable. I love being comfortable but stylish, which is an easy task. Here I took a simple polka dot peplum blouse, which gives me a more curvy appearance, and paired it with some simple blue jeans. To add another print into the mix, I added some leopard print loafers which gives the outfit a quirky touch. Tying my hair up into a bun gives me a more casual yet put together look, which I paired with my glasses. As for make-up? A simple cat-eye liner and a hot pink lippie did the trick. And add a messenger bag to continue that casual look.

 After spending your whole day in class, you want to unwind and maybe go out to drink with the girls. But wait, you don't have time to change! No problem, here's what you need to do. Adding a sleek pair of black pumps adds a much needed length. You can even un-cuff the ends of your jeans to add even more length. By letting down you hair you give a more mysterious feel to the outfit, which you can later pair up with a turban headband. Finally, ditch your messenger bag for a nice sleek black clutch. The pop of color in this outfit is all in the lips. Remember, black goes with everything, even the lips.

Quick Stop

 We made a quick stop to Wal-Mart yesterday so I could get some items for a DIY I'll be posting soon and I got two silly things. One, my Clinique foundation is now officially too dark for my face so I decided to get Revlon Photo Ready Foundation in 001 Ivory. Although my body has a slightly more yellow-ish tone to it my face doesn't, so I tend to be more on the pale side of cosmetics.  I'll be doing a review on it soon. Second,  I got a nail polish from Bettina in Candy Peppermint. It looks more pale  on the bottle than on but it's okay, it's still a really pretty color.

 Also, F21 is finally getting high-waist bottoms so I got a yellow high-waist short...color, I know! It's okay, I splash it with ridiculous amounts of black. It's a bit too short and rides up my bum but it's okay. Apart from the wedgie effect it's a very comfy short.

 And lastly, I'm going to be doing a giveaway soon, hopefully in time for Valentine's Day, so stay tuned for that!

Goodies!

 I had today off and went off to explore Forever 21 in depth. It's been some time since I really roam it, if you know what I mean. I found that they finally brought the Love & Beauty collection to PR. The collection as of now consists of nail polishes, face care products, nail care products, mirrors, hair brushes, etc. I know they're still missing a lot of the make-up you see in the online store but it's a start. 

  I didn't mind getting clothing items, I'm saving for winter wear but I did like the new goodies they have. I got a new wallet that can be used as a clutch since my wallet is slowly dying. This new one has a crocodile detail and it's a really nice chocolate colour. As for the space, it's pretty nice and roomy for now, I'll give it some time so I can adjust to the change. Next I got 2 jewelry pieces. The spike earrings were for $1.50 which I love about F21, accessible fashionable jewelery for less for that nice style detail so you don't have to invest in something that may go out of style. Also got a gold scuff ring which I adore. I've been making my peace with gold jewelry and this ring is just timeless and elegant. I'm hoping I can score a gold necklace too. Then I got some funky polka dot socks I thought would look spiffy (yes, I said spiffy) with my new Romwe cut out boots! Last but not least I got some Green Tea Cleansing Tissues so I could try them out. I've heard good things about them but each skin is different so I'm excited to try them out.

 I had to get a lap top bag since my school bag is now officially dead. Also I needed a discreet bag so I can carry my lap top with more ease. After some hunting we just went to Office Max to look as some bags and I was quite surprised. There were some lovely choices, they ranged from $40 to almost $90. After some pondering I decided to go with this Franklin Covey tote for $54 (I think). I didn't want something cheap that would cause me to get another one so soon, but I also didn't want to spend too much. I love that it actually looks like a normal tote, no lap top included. I'm quite happy with it, the room space is very nice. I just hope we get along for a long time.
