Dear Abby

Sure!

I was looking about Forever21, and American Eagle to find something that I thought would suit you, and stumbled upon these choices! I thought the colors light/dark blue, orange, and coral would compliment your blue eyes, and fair skin.


This dress is absolutely adorable, and fall perfectly on your petite frame! The slightly empire waist would emphasize your small figure, and the skirt would add a dash of chic to this beautiful frock ready for a warm summer or spring day spent with friends. This dress would look so cute with some golden layered necklaces, and few bracelets, and some cute (in your case, clip-on) earrings to match! This dress is $24.80 regular price at Forever21, if you like it!

This beauty is also from Forever21. I thought the halter straps and belted waste would flaunt your slim figure, and the burnt tone to it would set off your blue eyes. This dress is also available in navy, as pictured below.
The navy shade would also look great on you!

These dresses are available for $24.99 each from Forever21, as previously mentioned.

Since I know you only have 1 skirt, (crime against nature :P) I thought this blue one would make a great addition to your closet!
This full circle skirt would compliment your eyes, and showcase your athletic legs. The rich color of this skirt is gorgeous!

This skirt is $16.90 regular price at Forever21.

As my final piece, I present you with these cute shorts from American Eagle.
They are available in more colors, but I thought these would look so cute on you! The light pink would make your eyes stand out, and your hair richer. The color is just so chic, and they're midi shorts, so their modest cut would be perfect for school!

These shorts are $34.99 on sale at American Eagle, as I mentioned.

Have a beautiful dat!

ELF Brightening Eye Color Eye Shadow Pallets

I bought these for my Halloween make-up, although depending on the color in the pallet, it can be worn casually.

I bought the pallet in Punk Funk and Rocker because I found the colors perfect for my costume. (I was the Mad Hatter)

Ocean DreamsOcean Dreams

For my costume, I did "cotton candy eyes," (I'll showcase that technique eventually,) so mainly I used the first one, Punk Funk. The second one I used my sister, who was a doll-Alice, and wanted to look sweet and innocent. Overall, I found these to be extremely satisfying and it worked very well, especially for the price.

I got these two pallets for $1 each regular price at Target! ALWAYS TRY TARGET, MY FRIENDS!

Have a beautiful day!

AE Printed Shorties Review

On a recent trip to the mall, I stopped by American Eagle, and purchased these super cute shorts in both patterns available; black and white, and pink and orange.

AE Printed ShortieAE Printed Shortie


I am extremely satisfied with the earlier, and moderately so with the latter; for some reason, the pink and orange's waist band is a bit tighter. I am still in love with the print, and the chic design!

With the black and white, I usually wear a light pink shirt and grey-pink-gold converse, or for a more dressy occasion, I will wear an orange blazer, and black strappy flats. I haven't yet worn the pink and orange, as I am in the middle of a wardrobe-clean-out-session, and cannot find anything that fits, and compliments the bright color scheme perfectly.

Overall, this is a great purchase, and I would highly recommend it! They're very plush, and eye-catching! Great for a casual day outing with friends, or even a party!

You can find these on-sale in store or online for $29.99 each

Sittin' Pretty Ensemble

Hiya! So, I was browsing on ModCloth, as pertains to usual, and came across this cutie! I thought the chair print was so original, unique, and just so adorable!

This dress is a little pricy for the weak-walleted, such as myself.

It is $79.99 regular price from ModCloth

I thought this would just be such a cool item to have!

Make-up to go along with the look:

I would recommend to go with a darker brown shadow, a swipe of dark pink gloss, and your basics: mascara, and some concealer, if desired. If you're really dressing it up, you could go for some bronzer or blush, but I'd keep clean, if I were you.

Accessories:

This necklace is another ModCloth design. It's called "Icicle Elegance Necklace." It is a little bit of a short chain, however, so I would recommend adding a bit more for desired length, and removing a few crystals, since there are quite a few, and they're quite large. Earrings, I would just go with your basic silver-gems/rhinestone studs, or something very minimalistic, like the colorblock cubes below.
Earrings link: http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=f21&Category=acc_earrings_stud&ProductID=1000033317&VariantID=

The necklace $14.99 on sale from ModCloth, and the earrings are $4.80 from Forever21. (The earrings are clip-on.)

Shoes:

I'd say just wear your basic black flats, nothing TOO showy, because after all, our main focus is the dress and necklace. These just happen to be glossy, however, a suede shoe would also be very cute.


These are $16.80 regular price from Forever21.

However, if you want to dress it up, I'd say some basic black heels, like the ones below.

These are metallic trimmed pumps from Forever21. I would recommend platform shoes for that extra oomph.

These are $29.80 regular price from Forever21, as I mentioned.

Always remember to read the reviews before making a purchase, to find out if what you are buying is tailored to your shape, or liking! :)


Total Price Option 1 (w/first pair of shoes): $116.58
Total Price Option 2 (w/second pair of shoes): $129.58

My totals do not include shipping, or tax!


Total Price Range: Medium-High 


For those with a small budget for clothes, this is quite a dent in the wallet, but it's worth it :)

Have a beautiful day, and don't forget to write in to give me some suggestions/asking for advice!
