Celebrity Marketplace: Spring Collections

Happy Wednesday! :D

I know there are a lot of celebrities out there who have their own fashion lines, but I don't really have anything from any of those collections.

Have you bought anything from any celebrity fashion line?

Here are some items that caught my eye from some celebrity Spring collections:

Jessica Simpson Collection:

Tulip Tunic Dress, $128

This dress is soooooo pretty! I can imagine this worn to a graduation, or a casual summer backyard wedding. :)

Naomi Satchel, $108

This bag is available in other colors, but I really love this yellow one.

Cactus, $79

Wedges are great - they give you height while still being comfortable.

Olsenboye for JCPenney:

I'm not sure if this line is just for teenagers, but they have really cute stuff (and so affordable too!).

Lace Ruffle Dress, $24.99

I think a dress like this should be a staple in our summer wardrobe. :)

Bow Front Tank Dress, $24.99

This one is cute for a day out - shopping and running errands.

Isabelle sandals, $40 (on sale for $29.99)

House of Harlow 1960:

Oval Finger Ring, $35

My classmate was wearing this ring the other day, and it looks so good when worn!

Tribal Circle Pendant with Cabochons in Gold/Coral, $145

I love the combination of gold and coral.

Coin Drop Earrings, $97

I can imagine this worn with simple jeans and a white tee - make sure the earrings take center stage! ;)

LC Lauren Conrad:

I love Lauren Conrad's style! I love her California girl look. Her clothes are the kind of clothes I wear. :)

Eyelet Peasant Top, $44 (on sale for $33)

Cuffed Linen shorts, $40

Ruffle Blouse, $34 (on sale for $25.50)

Floral Satin Skirt, $44 (on sale for $33)

Maria Sharapova by Cole Haan:

Air Jasmine Gladiator, $168

Perfect for summer! :D

Ivanka Trump:

"Verena" Thong Sandal, $139.95

*Ummm, I just realized I forgot to look at Beyonce's Dereon line... ooops... maybe, next time?*

But anyway, have you bought any items from any of these celebrity fashion lines? Which of these did you like the best?

Spring's Top Trends: A Recap

Happy Thursday! :)

I've been totally off this week - yesterday I thought it was Thursday, today I thought it was Wednesday! Weeeeeiiird. And I didn't know that it was American Idol's finale last night, but anyway, yay Scotty! ;)

I am excited that the semester is almost over! One thing I'm gonna miss about going to school though is planning my outfits, haha! But that's okay, there's a whole summer for me to dress up.

These past few months I've really tried to change up my style - I started wearing clothes that I would never even think about wearing before, I started using some of my bolder accessories that I haven't touched in years... And it's fun! :D

What about you, have you been changing up your style?

These magazine pages from People go through Spring's top trends, which I'm pretty sure should spill over to Summer. Are there any new Summer fashion trends?

1. Fun Stripes

2. White Shirts

I have some white blouses and plain white tees, but I don't have button-downs. I need to get some. :)

3. Bright Colors

I started wearing my colored jeans again, but I have yet to try wearing bright colors a la Camilla Belle.

4. Trouser Jeans

I don't really have trouser jeans, but my sister gave me some of her linen pants that are on the long side - I was able to wear them like high-waist jeans. :)

5. Pretty Florals

6. Maxi Skirts

I have to get some maxi skirts - but, I am wearing a midi skirt right now. :D

7. Animal Prints

Another trend I love, but my closet lacks!

Which of these seven trends do you like the most? Have you been sporting any of them lately? :D

2011 Cannes Film Festival

Happy Friday!

Yay, the weekend is finally here! Only two more weeks left 'til summer for me! :D

I kicked off my summer posts with Swim Guide: 10 Best One-Pieces, and I was gonna make some Polyvore sets for a day at the beach, but I just wasn't feeling it. Has that ever happened to you? Like your creative juices just wasn't flowing, do you know what I mean? ;P

But anyway, I was looking at photos from the 2011 Cannes Film Festival. So, while I am suffering from "blogger's block" (hahaha, get it, writer's block?), I thought I'd just share some photos from Cannes.

Kirsten Dunst - Looking at her photo, I realized something: I miss seeing her in movies! The last movie I saw her in was... oh gosh, I can't even remember, Spider Man 2?

I think she looks pretty here. I am loving everything about this look. :)

Zoe Saldana - Gorgeous! I love this dress on her. :)

Gwen Stefani - A lot of the articles I read raved about Gwen Stefani's Cannes looks.

And well, she does look amazing!

Rachel McAdams - Love her! :D

Johnny Depp and Penelope Cruz - My favorite Johnny Depp character has to be Willy Wonka, haha! What about you?

And Penelope Cruz = wow!

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt - Not my favorite look on Angelina, but kudos to these two for showing everyone that they really are the real deal. I really do hope they stay together forever.

Dev Patel and Freida Pinto = awwwwww! :)

Blake Lively and Leonardo di Caprio - So, I guess they're together? They're flirting?

Why does Blake Lively get everything??? Hahahaha. ;)

I love her outfit, though! :)

So, yup, that's about it for this post. I really gotta get my stuff together -- gotta plan my future blog posts. :)

Oh, I just finished reading Emily Giffin's Something Borrowed... although reviews aren't that good, I'm gonna go see the movie one of these days. Then perhaps, a post on the book and the movie? :)

Have a lovely weekend, everyone! :D

Beauty Watch: Get Sexy Eyes Now

Happy Saturday, everyone! :D

I hope you are all having a lovely weekend.

And I hope all the Moms out there are having the best weekend ever because after all it should be all about them. :)

----------------------------------------------

Some of you may remember from some of my older posts how frustrated I am when it comes to eye makeup - specifically eyeshadow. I don't know, I just can't get it right, but I know one day, I'll get it! I can now apply mascara better than before... eyeliner and eyeshadow, you're next! ;)

If like me, you still need practice with eye makeup, I hope these tips from pro makeup artists help you. For those of you who are really good with eye makeup, let us know if these tricks work for you. :)

Lash Curler - gently curling bare lashes will give them a "beautiful curve"

Eyeliner - to add depth to your look, apply liner to your inner lashline

Shadow - keep lashes the main focus with neutral tones, which blend easily into skin

Highlighter - as a finishing touch, apply on lower lid to make lashes pop

Pointed Tips - use to separate clumpy lashes and spot treat mistakes

Do you have any tips and tricks to add to these?

I've also always wanted to wear falsies, but I have no idea how to put them on and such.

Here are some tips from Kim Kardashian's makeup artist, Joyce Bonelli:

- Short individual lashes give the eye a "feathery, yet natural look". Apply where lashes are sparse, beginning at the inner corner of the eye.

- Tilt your head up while looking into the mirror to expose the top of your lashline and blend falsies in naturally.

- Don't apply mascara to lashes before your falsies are in place. Once lashes are in place, apply mascara sparingly.

Do you wear falsies? Any other tips?

Style Watch: Kate Middleton + Happy Easter!

Hey, guys!

I hope you're all having a wonderful weekend! :D

Ever since Kate Middleton's engagement to Prince William was announced, I noticed that her style has been put into closer inspection. I know some people think her style is boring (ehem, Vivienne Westwood...) and she has some looks that are more miss than hit, but I think that most of the time, her style is classic and beautiful, and fit for a princess. :)

What do you think of the future princess' style?

Oh, and I forgot to ask you guys, did you watch the Lifetime movie William and Kate? I know, I know, it was more bad than good... oh, who am I kidding, it was bad, haha! The proposal scene made me laugh! But the actor who played Prince William is wayyyyy more good-looking than the Prince, don't you think?

Anyways, that's it for today. I wish you all a

!!!

:D
