A Dream Room

I'm sure at one point in their lives...EVERYONE has considered what their dream room would be like. Here's MINE :) Feel free to do yours in a comment, or even a blog post and link me it!

1. The Walls: I always imagine my room a Minty Green or Lavender color. I'd keep the ceiling white though... Here are the shades I like.....

Sherwin Williams 6973 Free Spirit:


Sherwin Williams 6744 Reclining Green:


2. Furniture: Very Important- It all has to match too! White furniture!

Vanity: Lilac Vanity by PBteen


Bed: Lilac Bed by PBteen...I guess they're supposed to match with the vanity...interesting that i liked them both :)


Dresser: Lilac 9 Drawer Dresser by PBteen...same type again!


Chairs: IDK if this would fit with the vanity..I just really like the chair. OOh la lollipop chair by wake up frankie


Couch: If I was ever lucky enough to have a massive room... Parisian Love seat... damask!


Lighting: Classic Iron Floor Lamp by PBteen. love it. white lampshade probz.


French Accent lamps by wake up frankie- SO cute


6 light black chandelier by wake up frankie- I know it doesn't really "match" the all white stuff- but I think it is necessary for contrast...and I've been inspired by black chandeliers ever since i've seen them at the FIDM debut party.


Shelving: Ikea BESTA shelf.Basic but nice :)


Linens: Classic Noir Damask Bedding...WAL MART?! its reversible too. epic.


Thats all I can think of for now.. tooooo be continued...

Spring Trends: White Ceramic Watches

Recently while watching YouTube Beauty "Guru" Lorraine Stanick, I have been paying much attention to her beautiful CHANEL Ceramic White Watch. I think a white watch looks classy, dressy, and hey, it tells you the time! ;)
Here are some CHEAPER options I have found for those of us who don't have thousands of dollars lying around :(

Michael Kors: White Oversize Ceramic Watch 5163
http://www.amazon.com/Michael-Kors-White-Oversized-Ceramic/dp/B002IVTFBY
I'm Lovin this one! Still quite expensive though...


Fossil: "Stella" Style White Ceramic Watches
http://www.fossil.com Search Term: Stella Watch
I am digging how similar this is to the real deal at only $95!


Toy Watch: White Plasteramic
http://store.jrdunn.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=TW0032208%2DWH
I like this one, but it's quite expensive as well and looks similar to the fossil one. But, this has a lot of celebrity recognition according to the site.


Those are my 3 picks........but browse around and you can find a bunch more! If you find any treasures link them below! :D
Which is your favorite?

Everday Makeup Look.

Here's my daily makeup when I'm not feeling creative.

Primer: Gotta Keep that CAKE FACE (not) ON!

Right now I use: Loreal Studio Secrets Primer


With NO 7 Boots Primer in my T zone (where I get oily)


Foundation: Time to cover the imperfections! (and I have A LOT!)

Currently Using MAC Studio Tech Foundation in NC15

It works pretty well. (not pictured in NC15)

Blush: Liven up those cheeks!
I like to use MAC's Style blush the most. It gives me a peachy glow and doesn't accentuate my redness or scarring as much as a pink toned blush would.


Setting Powder: Now let's set that foundation!
I use MAC's MSF Natural in Light.

I use Makeup Forever's HD setting powder in my T-Zone

Don't make it look cakey!

Eyeshadow Primer: Make that eyeshadow STICK.
I use Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion. I like it, It keeps it from creasing, but it makes eyeshadow a pain to blend.


Eyeshadow: I usually change up my eyeshadow from day to day, but for the days I'm running late and can't be creative, here's what I do to play up my brown eyes!

MAC Pigment-Shimmertime: You can't get this anymore... (ha ha? jk)
It's a beautiful shimmery light pink color.


MAC eyeshadows-Espresso/Carbon: I use these in the crease, mixed together to make a darker espresso color.

Espresso

Carbon

Mascara: Time to liven the lashes!
I am loving Smashbox Lash DNA from my lash stash. On a daily basis I switch it up though between the mascaras in there.


If I do my bottom lashes, I can't use the Lash DNA because the brush is too huge. I like using Urban Decay's Skyscraper mascara to pump up my bottom lashes.


Eyeliner(Optional): I don't often line my eyes with this look, but if I do it will be with Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner pencil in zero. I put it on my waterline and blend it down onto my lashline slightly. I only put it on the last half-ish of my waterline, not close to my tearduct because I have watery Eyes.


Lips: Pretty in pink lips to look kissable!
Chapstick- any type is good.


Lip Liner- I use the clear Maybelline one :) It's alright!


Lipstick- Now I often use VIVA GLAM GAGA by MAC. I can do one coat for a very natural look, or liven it up with multiple coats for that bubblegum barbie pink lip!



Thanks so much for checkin this out! What's your everyday look?

Etsy Finds

Etsy is a great website for a few reasons: Find HANDMADE goods, or vintage pieces!
I did some digging around and just felt like sharing things I'd buy if I had actual money ;)

1. Tortoise In Chains and Pearls

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=43690537&ref=sr_list_13&&ga_search_query=lady+gaga&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=3&includes[]=tags&includes[]=title

I love the flat top style sunglasses, and I love chains. these would be great to have with a simple outfit. I love the style! HATE the price. May just have to create my own........Let me know if you can get me some supplies! aka link it up!

2. Angels Fly 2-Finger Ring

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=43595984&ref=sr_list_28&&ga_search_query=lady+gaga&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=3&includes[]=tags&includes[]=title

These are really cool. Not in specifics this one ,just any. My aunt got me one of these maybe 6-9 years ago. I lost it and I'm really sad about that. I lost it like right after she gave it to me but I was young! These were used to carry poison to kill people, and sometimes momentos. How Awesome?!!?

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=37280325
I LOVE this. I'm a PC user So I'm really unsure if I can even use this? I'd imagine so, but theyre very specific labeling it for macbooks!

FIDM Debut Show

This week I had the privilege of attending FIDM's Annual Debut Fashion Show where they show off the work of their students! Although my major is obviously not represented (beauty), I had a blast! I went with my mom and my friend. But also ran into a few classmates.


They had a display with a few dresses. This one was my favorite.

At the Pre-Show party, they had these amazing red velvet cupcakes. I wonder who they were by....? Recipe Please!

The show's "Host" Was Nick Verreos- you may recognize him from Project Runway!-Here is some of his upcoming collection he previewed at the debut!






This was a designer named Sam Klemick. I liked her style so I took the picture, and then ended up loving her collection.











































I didn't dare try and put captions on each picture. But, I'll just annotate here.
The designer with the army of kids behind her is Meghann Alaina Fanara- She did a kids line-the only kids line, super unique!
The designer I mentioned previously-Sam Klemick- her line was the one with the bows and unicorn horns. Pink, White, Chartreuse, and Navy. I'm in love.
Every designer was really good and it was awesome to see what talent comes from FIDM.
I noticed one of the models is Brandise who is a model on this seasons Project Runway! :)
Last picture is me and Nick Verreos from project runway-FIDM Instructor, and FIDM Debut 2010 host. He was amazingly sweet!

xoxo
Olivia
