Spring trends

MAKE UP FOR YOUR EYES
Hi everyone!!! Which article is better than make up to start off with the blog? NONE. Because make up is a very important part in every girl's life, as it can make the worse of dark circles a beautiful and iluminated look. To make sure you take off the most out of you, you've got to take into account the colors of your face, because not every kind of make up suits you perfectly. Here, I'll show you some tricks for those of you who don't have a clue of which are their best colors.
Dark eyes
Brown eyes are beautiful, but you have to know how to make them look special. This is done by making it look bigger and catlike. First of all add a white or pink eyeliner at the bottom of the eye, this will iluminate it and make it look bigger. Then, its up to you. If you want to go natural, add first on the eyelid a pale brown and on top a darker one, making the line wider where the eye ends, to make the eyelashes darker, therefore longer. If you want to go to a party, do the same but instead of adding a brown, add grey and then black. If you can, try to find eye shadows that have shine on them. Nude is always perfect for you girls, you look natural, trendy and at the same time perfect!





Green eyes
To make your eyes look greener you have to add on simply green shadow. The tone? It doesn't really matter, just add of the one you like. A color that suits very well is yellow. It is a new trend and it is starish!!! Follow always the step of putting white eyeliner to make the eye bigger and then add the shadow.



Blue eyes
Blue eyed girls can use black, blue or green, depending on the situation. Always start with the white eyeliner to make the eye bigger and then start. If you want to go to a party and to highlight your eye use a black shadow, it is better if it has shine on it. Then, green or blue, in a very light way, when you want to go more natural, it makes the eye have more color. The brown is not very suitable for you because it makes your eye look really boaring and not-special.




YOU CAN ALWAYS EXPERIMENT WITH SHADOWS, THEY ARE MUCH BETTER THAN EYELINERS SINCE THEY DON'T GO AWAY AS QUICKLY AS THEY DO.
It is important to add the shadow first on the centre of the eye lid and then, with the brush, make the movement of thecar windshield, in order to mix the shadow and the skin.



THE TOP 5- MUST & EEEWS

Here we are with the week's top 5, Must and Eeews, hope you enjoy them and find them useful!

MUST


  1. A denim shirt. Why? Because it goes well with everything, it can be worn everywhere and it is soooo nice! It is simply FANTABULOUS. D&G's new collection has one that is really cool, but a little too expensive. There is an alternative from Zara, that is also cool and cheaper, as I say, low chic.

  2. Military jacket. It is one of those items that you see and you don’t know why, but you fall in love… THE ONE!!! Every celebrity has one, and it can be worn in summer as well as in winter. In green or in brown are the most common ones, but there are also the ones that look like a captain’s jacket, they are very nice too. The jacket green of brown can be found in Zara for 30€ aprox. and the other one in H&M for 35,90€.

  3. Doctor Martens. They come originally from war, but recently, it’s starting to become an IT in every girl’s closet. Celebrities like Agyness Deyn, and bloggers like Lisa Olsson wear them with leggings, jeans, skirts… practically everything. Also, for the shorter girls, you can put inside an internal heel which will make you look taller without, apparently, wearing heels. The nicer colours are black, white or dark red. You can find them online, or imitations from almost all the brands, including Zara and H&M. The original ones cost approximately 100€, while the imitations between 50€ and 80€.

  4. Faded tops or with colors in degradé. Bluemarine's new collection consists on this with very bright colors, but there are cheaper ones in Comptoir des Cotonniers. They can be used eigther for parties or casual look. For parties with skirts of high shot, and casual, with jeans, leggins etc. WHATEVER!!!

  5. Plastic converse. These aren't new, but they are very modern. What's cool about these shoes is that they can be the color you want by changing the sock. They are very very very cool!!! You can get ones online, because they are very rare and they cost about 60€. They are inside the top 5 because this spring, plastic is taken into account a lot since Versache did the plastic skirts, I'm looking forward to seeing some in the cheaper shops!

EEEWS
  1. Small heel high heels. This might sound silly, but the high heels that have small heels are really ASCO, I mean it, high heels are done to make you taller. This kind of shoes are not only ugly, but uncomfortable and unuseful. So why suffer and not look as good as you should?
  2. GO-GO tees. These are really fluor but without prints, which is the trend this spring. They have letters and strange pictures in.... AZKO!!! You should wear something else according to fashion if you want to look good. Forget about those tees you find at a shop all over the place but they are so cheap you've got to buy them...it's a waste of money, I mean it!!!
  3. Ball necklaces and big pearl earings. They are old, and make you look old and serious. This spring's trends are fresh and radiate youth. If you have one of this items, I recommend you as a friend to through them out the window and open your heart to chains: military, short... and hoops as earings.
  4. Hair with wet effect. We are in the era of the chic boho, we love dried hair full of natural curls, very discreet. The curls which look very provocated and wet, like made with foam are absolutely OUT!!! Let your hair be hippy and happy!!!
  5. Too many color in your face. Keep it simple, one color at a time, if you mix too much you will look like a bowl lolita. So don't use for example, a very exagerated blue shadow for your eyes, very dark make up base with very pinky cheeks and a very bright red, or brown or pink lipstick. Make the picture in your head. Isn't it a complete Eeew?

THE LOOK OF THE WEEK


I was having a little walk with my dog yesterday afternoon, when I met this girl with this fabulous look. She was wearing a very casual sport look but at the same time she was very stylish.

Jeans- Zadig & Voltaire 190€

THE IT..... FILM & BOOK

The novel by Nicholas Sparks, Dear John, is the week's IT. The film is very good, and also very sad, but the book is 1000000 times better. The story is changed completely, so I recommend you to read the book, you'll love it!

THE END

And that's all for this week. I hope you've enjoy it and you've learned some tricks. Send me your looks and the best one will appear in the week's look analysis, or e-mail me with your suggestions, ideas etc....
