10 Fashion & Style Dos & Don'ts

1. Don't wear two revealing clothing items at one time. The temperature outside is not an excuse to be overly sexy. Guys will appreciate you leaving some things to the imagination.

 2. Don't wear leggings as pants, unless working out. Just because you have a nice butt does not mean you have to showcase it in leggings. Also if you aren't in love with your lower half but leggings make your outfit, you can hide it with a long flowing shirt.

3. Don't pair different animal prints together. You don't want to step out of the house with the whole jungle on your body.

4. Don't wear too much jewelry. Let your clothes do some of the talking. Don't let your jewelry over power it.

5. Don't wear jeans that don't fit. You'll make your but look saggy just because your jeans are baggy.

6. Do DRESS FOR YOUR BODY TYPE! Sucking it in and poking it out can only do so much. Wear clothes that flatter You.

7. Do wear a camisole under any see through top so your bra doesn't show. Unless you're Rihanna, I am guessing showing the world your underwear (or even less in her case) through see through clothing is not on your "Things I Don't Give a F*ck About" list; so be aware of see through tops.

8. Do always wear black or your skin tone underwear under white clothing. *Refer to the joke in #7. Also always check yourself in a well lit mirror before leaving the house.

9. Do match your accessories to any buttons or bling in your outfit. The hardware on your purse should match the hardware on your shoes, which should match the jewelry on your neck, wrists, ears, and fingers. If that's complicated just remember, "All Gold Everything"!

10. Do step out of your comfort zone, and try new things with your personal style. Fashion is all about seeing what does and does not work and taking risk no matter what others think. Take a leap you just might fly!

No Matter What Career I Have, My Future Is Chic

          As a senior in high school, it's so hard for me to settle on a career path for me to take on my journey into the world of fashion and beauty. I have so many complex interests, that are just spouting from those two simple subjects.
         I love reading and writing about makeup, hair, fashion, and all of their trends in general, so should I be a fashion and beauty journalist or blogger professionally? I also have an interest in fashion design, so should I be a designer?  Then I also love shopping and putting together outfits for myself and others, so should I be a stylist or fashion merchandiser? It would be so much fun to shop for more than myself and with a much bigger budget! Then I am also pretty wise when it comes to spotting the next trend. I also think I would be good at coming up with campaigns and ways to get people to buy certain clothes, so why not be a fashion marketer? Although I am not the best at math so that may cut out the marketing part. Now when it comes to the beauty stuff I am the type of girl who loves to always have her face "Beat To Perfection" and her hair "Laid To The Gawds"! Makeup is my true passion; and the fact that I'm pretty good with hair too is a plus. It would make perfect sense for me to just go to Cosmetology school, perfect my craft, and fulfill my destiny as I have one head at a time, "Snatched"! The only thing is, that education would require extra money that I do not have and my mother is not willing to pay. There goes that dream (until further notice).
          In the end these are the thoughts that will not leave my mind. These are the decisions I have to make. I don't have too much longer to think, but I know no matter what though, My Future Is Chic.
