Spring Beauty Trend 2013: Bright Eyeliner!

Hello beautiful rays of sunshine,

I hope you're having a wonderful week so far! I know I'm not... Exams galore and last minute grades going into the gradebook. >.<

My birthday's TODAY (happy birthday to me..), but I'm not very excited this year. I have two exams and additional homework from other classes. I might have to get up early to go to a math review session at school... 5:30am on my birthday, woooot~

Anywhoo, on a much brighter note (ehehe), I've been honestly seeing this trend EVERYWHERE lately, on celebs, on the runway, on the street, legitimately everywhere I go. Bright eyes, a brilliant pop of color along the upper lashline. It makes your face look youthful and adds some color. You can play around with the look, whether you want it subtle or dramatic, it's entirely up to the person.

Moschino Cheap and Chic Spring 2013

Donna Karan Spring/Summer 2013

On the runway, the colors were being worn on the upper and lower lashline, accentuating different parts of the eye, but still bring attention to the eyes in general. Another way of wearing the bright eyeliner is just a ring around the eye.

Spring/Summer 2012 Trends for Less: Neons and Brights

Hello, readers! Today I will be sharing some Spring/Summer trends that you can get for less than runway prices. A major S/S 2012 trend is NEON NEON NEON. Hopefully we won't get all the way overboard and back to the 80s, but I think I can find a way to incorporate it into your wardrobe.

Spring 2012 Beauty Trend: Red Lips

Hello readers! Today's post will be about the ever in style red lippies. I'm sorry I haven't posted in such a long time!! I'll try to make it up with more posts today, I promise. I've been really busy, unfortunately. Homework can really suck.

Anyway, red lips are no surprise. It was seen all over runways, from bright corals to deep burgundies glossed on model's lips. Red lips are being taken to new heights, every shade of the red spectrum have been seen everywhere. They have been pulled back from the vintage pinup era, and put into the 21st century. This Spring/Summer 2012 (S/S 2012) has been filled with the message: Combine vintage and modern styles to create your own and unique style. Shine and let people know you are here.

At least that's what I think. ;) Read more after the jump!

COLOR-BLOCKING

Well, spring's here, and summer is up coming, and I wanted to fill you guys in on the clothing I've seen on runways, the red carpet, and streets alike. To see more, look at my Pinterest board under Spring/Summer 2012.

So, apparently fashion is taking a book out of the '60s and '80s and popping it onto the 2012s.... wait, what? Would it be called the '12s? Or the '10s? Or... ANYWAY. Color-blocking is here! I'm happy, because the drab colors and frilly designs (shivers) of Autumn 2011 are gone, and bright color blockin is here!

Obviously, color blocking is a big trend right now. VERY big. People are wearing it head to toe, sometimes coordinating their outfits, or just little things, like shoes, purses, or a top. But it's the latest craze that you can see almost everywhere. Here are some examples:
