Tough Girl

This is also a combination I like very much... You can make your own skull T-shirt, and I've even added the tutorial for it, so you might have fun while making it... :D 
Anyways, I think it's a nice combination...

VISUAL KEI

Another interesting style, Visual kei.
"Visual kei ("visual style" or "visual system") is a movement among Japanese musicians, that is characterized by the use of make-up, elaborate hair styles and flamboyant costumes, often, but not always, coupled with androgynous aesthetics.Some sources state that visual kei refers to a music genre, or to a sub-genre of Japanese rock, with its sound usually related to glam rock, punk rock and heavy metal. However other sources state that visual kei is only a fashion, with its unique clothing, make-up and participation in the related subculture being what exemplifies the use of the term."

Examples of Visual kei:

Interesting Nail Art

Just wanted to share a few really fancy looking nail art designs. Most of them take a bit more time and patience, but look very good. I somehow always come back to number VII, though... :) Not that much work, and looks pretty good.

Have fun! xoxo

Fancy Miss Black and Red

I love black and red combinations, because they appear sexy and classy at the same time. I don't really do classic clothes, so I always tend to add up some cool accessories. Lately I'm very into wedge ankle boots, preferably with spikes. Awesome! :D




Old Hollywood Makeup

What I also like on occasion, is old Hollywood makeup. It looks pretty simple, I think, and yet so beautiful. I  used that look when I went to some serious events, where I was compelled to behave like an adult... Haha!

It's something like this:

















I don't usually follow tutorial instructions for this, but I found a couple of tutorials, in case some of you might be interested in recreating this look and are not sure how:

Enjoy! :D

Pink with a pinch of Purple

Another cute combination I'm rather fond of. I was trying to combine a bit of semi-seriousness and the cute Kawaii. I think it turned out rather good, but that's just me... :)




Red Hot

Love this combination! Red is a beautiful rich colour associated with passion, fire, blood and danger. 
Sexy bow jeans, knit above belly button shirt and classy wedges + cute Kawaii glasses + a tiny tiara, star earrings and nice bangles + blood vial necklace... LOVE IT!




Hair Bow Tutorial

I love this hairdo, so I thought I might share it with you... :D
This is a photo of the hair bow. Unfortunately, this awesome hair colour's not mine... :(




If you like this hairdo, here's a link where you can find a tutorial (I used that one the first time I did my hair bow... :D):

KAWAII

Since I already mentioned I like Kawaii, I might as well say something about the style. Just a note, cause I'm no expert. XD And some links...
Kawaii is the quality of cuteness in the context of Japanese culture and it became an important aspect of Japanese popular culture, entertainment, clothing, food, toys, personal appearance,behavior, and mannerisms. 


If you're interested in knowing something more about Kawaii, you might check this out:







Abbey Dawn

A bit of Abbey Dawn... :D Absolutely love Avril's style! Fresh, unique and fun!




Classy Rocker Chick

I saw something similar to this outfit somewhere, and I wanted to do it myself, cause it looked bloody fantastic! :)




Cool Tomboy

I absolutely love varsity jackets! I love combining them with all sorts of things... :)




Pretty and Bad

This is actually one of my favourite combinations... :) 




Rebel Princess






Wrapped In Pink

Even though pink is not exactly my favourite colour, I've been told it looks good on me. :D
Pink is definitely good for a "cutie pie" look, which I do a lot, so my first combo will be:
I. cute pink ruffle mini skirt
II. black and white, above knee stockings
III. pink high heels (I actually like rhinestones, hahah)
IV. white above belly button shirt, which are one of my favourites
V. light pink cardigan
VI. pink top hat (loving it)
VII. and what I've been a bit obsessed with the last few days - Kawaii style accessories! Absolutely love those! :3 

This is basically how I pictured it: 





Hope you like it! :D
Feel free to comment and give suggestions, or share ideas! :D

At the beginning...

Hey, you guys! :)
I just want to say that I'm no fashion expert, nor am I trying to become one... All I'm doing here is sharing some of my outfit combinations... :) My style is a bit mixed up, I try not to be stuffed in just one drawer... :) I wear whatever I consider nice... Also, I might be writing about all sorts of things, like makeup, hairstyles I liked, books I enjoyed reading, music I love, etc. This is probably going to be about a bunch of different stuff, so I hope you won't get lost in all of it... :3
Anyways, I'd like to hear your opinions, so feel free to leave a comment... 
Thanks, and I hope you have fun... 
xoxo
