I'm honestly not a big makeup user. On most days my routine consists of swiping on some waterproof eyeliner, and sometimes mascara if I have the time. I'm actually quite content with my skin because I rarely get pimples/zits and it's very smooth. The only negative thing about it is that I always have to lather on lotion after washing since my face gets quite dry.But of course, no one has a perfect complexion. I thought on days...

I don't know how many of you have heard of the online store dubbed Bleu Dame. I actually first became exposed to it through one of the very first fashion blogs I used to read (unfortunately it's hardly updated now). They carry the "latest in designer inspired sunglasses, celebrity jewelry, gauze scarfs, hair accessories, bags & more." All of this for a budget friendly price.I've been lusting after a pair of classic Ray Ban...

Have you heard of the new line of shirts Forever 21 has launched? "Inspired by the cool kids of Tokyo and Paris, Shibuya Mon Amour is girly, street, punk and fashion. Live it, love it. Shibuya Mon Amour."When I heard, I had to check them out since I love myself some graphic tees. They only have a few up at the moment, but the line consists of simple, animal illustrations on black, gray, and white tops. Another plus? The price...

Although you might not be thinking of lace in a weather like this (rain, anyone else?), it definitely eases my mind about what's happening outside by shopping for some Spring clothing. Lace was blatantly evident in Diane von Furstenberg's Spring 2009 collection, and it would be a great light, feminine piece to add to your wardrobe. I'm not sure about you, but I've never been too fond of the idea of lace till I looked at some less...

I love finding new stores to check out. I recently "bumped" into Tobi, which sells popular and some upcoming designer goodies. Of course this means that I can't afford more than half of what's on this site, but that doesn't mean I can't do a bit of "window" shopping. (You can indeed find things for a steal, such as sunglasses for as little as $35, but you've gotta browse).1) Prairie Underground Mothette Dress, $253I'm always on...

I don't know if you guys remember my Secret Santa wishlist that I shared with you, but there was this black and gold clutch on there that I loved. Well, I did like the gifts that I received from my gifter, but I didn't get the clutch on there. I checked it out at the store and realized I didn't like it as much as I thought I did. But I did find seven that I fell in love with from different websites. Now if only I could choose...

I remember seeing the most beautiful Dolce & Gabbana hand-painted dress on Kate Bosworth on her way to a Regis and Kelly interview. So I was excited when I saw a similiar version for much cheaper. And since we haven't featured a formal outfit yet for one of our "Chic for Cheap" posts I thought this would be a good one to start with!Kate lets the amazing, art-work of a dress take the full attention by keeping everything minimal....

I'm assuming many of you made New Year's resolutions. I made a maximum of three (I definitely wouldn't be able to keep more than that), and one of them included eating healthier and working out whenever I possibly could. And this happens to be one of the most popular New Year's resolutions, so I thought this post would be appropriate!Now I don't know about you, but looking cute definitely puts me in the mood to get myself off...

Now that the holidays are officially over, it's back to work and school. Getting up early and dragging myself out into the cold makes it harder for me to choose fashionable outfits, instead of just throwing on that old sweater. But with the help of some chic and warm accessories (and maybe a blast from the heater) it makes changing out of my pj's a whole lot easier.I've already mentioned scarfs about a hundred times in this blog,...
