Animal print make up!

Hello there! I promised another blog post involving make up done by me and here it is. I did 2 versions of an animal print make up, one it's a zebra and one is a leopard print. Don't know if there are this kind of make ups on youtube, I didn't check it out, but what's for sure is that I didn't follow any tutorials. This is my version . The zebra print one I think it's more wearable, like if it looks good on you, you can go out of the house like this without any problems and it can be done on any colors! The leopard print one is a little dramatic, like for costumes or Halloween or smth. But I love animal print and so it doesn't matter that is not wearable. Fashion is not about utility, right? Or...in our case, make up is not about utility..Or is it? You tell me! :)

Please don't mind my dark circles, I wasn't wearing any face make up, cause I did this indoor and washed it out after :P

You can draw any line as long as you want, I just did it the way it looks good on me :)


Different lightning

I like the way these colors look on my eyes and this is definitely a make up that would look good on any green eye, and usually, on some one that has a more warm face color (my face is very white...)

For the spots I combined a eye gel with a dark brown and applied it with a very small flat brush.


And my new Nails, the model is a inspiration fro Klair de Lys, but she did something different...

So tell me how you like it and, if you have any ideas on any kind of make up that you want to see done, just tell me, I'll do it, is so fun for me :D

Have a lovely week ahead!

10 things you can't leave the house without - my top!

I've just came up with my top of the ten things a girl shouldn't leave the house without. I know a lot of magazines have done this kind of tops but I didn't found one that had exactly this theme. I just wanted to share with you guys the things I consider to be a priority in life :)

I left the mobile phone off the list on purpose because even thou I am addicted to it, I don't find it as important as all these other things.The mobile is the next thing on the list :D

So please tell me what would you add or what would you take out of it. What are your most important things when leaving the house?

Here it is:

1.mirror

You have to be able to check the way you look all the time. This is a priority ;)

2.cash
Well, now, if you don't have any money, that's ok. But if you do have it, don't keep it all on your credit cards, because you might find a lot of situation in which you're dead without cash!

3.lipstick/lip gloss

Always keep your lip gloss of the day in your purse to be able to fresh up when ever is necessary !

4.a everyday absorbent
Do not, under any circumstance leave the house without it! Strange things can happen in the middle of no where and you don't want it to happen to you...

5.gum

You never know when you have to kiss someone, or stay close to someone and just talk to someone, and if you had a yummy garlic meal the conversation will not last long...

6.pen/paper


Even if today you can write anything on your mobile, there are situations in which you have to write something quickly and trust me, this situations happen to all of us more often than we think they do

7.condoms


If you are in a long term relationship you may not use them. Still, is good to keep one in a secret place, just in case you'll need it. And if you're not in a LTR you MUST have condoms all the time everywhere you go. (don't rely on him having one, because he might not have it and what do you do then?...)

8.(wet) wipes


To clean your hands, armpits, feet, even intimate zones. Today with all the craziness of the A1H1 flew is better to be on the safe side (even though wipes won't save you from the flew, but it'll keep you clean :P )

9.a book (in small dimensions?)

Be sure that no matter where you go and what you do, if you have a moment you can enjoy your current favorite book.

10.your camera

Not everybody owns a camera, but if you do, I hope it is smaller and it fits into a purse so that you can take photos of all he beautiful things you see and then share it with us !

P.S. If I would have done a 11 list of things, the 11 one would be a umbrella. We don't all live in England but we don't want our hair to get wet either, so here's a picture of Naomi at a 2006 Anna Sui fashion show, with an umbrella:

A Twiggy inspired make up for daily look

Hy guys! I wanted to share with you a make up that I did on myself and that I've been wearing for the past days. I love it so much! I first had in mind the Twiggy make up, which I saw done by Miss Chievous, she does some amazing make up looks on youtube, probably a lot of you already know her. I didn't apply false eye lashes or stuff like that, and my crease was not that dramatically covered in black, but it looks good and it is not so theatrical as the original one :D

I've also uploaded 2 pictures with the nail art I had on my nails in te past week. I love the blue one so much. I didn't came up with these models (and a lot other beauties), I found on youtube also. You can check them out the the following link (this girl does an awesome job!): Klairedelys.

Tell me what you think about it :D

P.S. I was having the worse hair day! My hair was going in every possible direction.

I really like the way I look with this make up on :D

A close up on the eye. I did not put a lot of mascara on because it was day time.

Diferent lightning
I love this nails. It looks like you have lace on your nails. So fun!

I think this is the best model I've ever had on! It looks like a fade out effect, but it's actually pretty simple to do! You can check it out on the youtube page I wrote above :)

The ED style

Hy guys! First of all I'd like to say "thanks!" to everyone who's commenting on my posts and all my followers and future followers. I am so happy that I have more and more visitors and, as you must know from your experience, it's such a joy to see people appreciating your blog!

Today I'm going to show you my favorite outfits from the amazing actor that is Ed Westwick! So, besides the fact that I would give anything for a night with Ed (which I don't think will happen very soon :P ) and that he is such a good actor I am a very big fan of his style! His way of dressing and wearing his clothes it's so laid back, so natural, so junky and still sexy and cool. This is definitely the type of style that I like in a guy and the kind of guy I like ;)

The thing is that I've always dated this type of bad looking guy, really good in their heart. Acting tough but being sensitive...Uuu...so hot... Maybe this is why I'm fascinated by Ed...
(do I sound like a 15 years girly girl or what?)

So tell me what do you think about his style ? (negative opinions do count!)

HOT AS HELL (I've used this expression in my previous post also, but I just like it so much :D )
Big fan of leather jackets and sun glasses

Who else can wear that cardigan with a leather jacket and a colored "cartoon like" t-shirt and make it look great?
He makes these V cut t-shirts look so masculine (seen here with gf Jessica Szhor. An A for the style also)
The man can get himself together and dress up too (at the "Model As Muse" Gala ) wearing Dior Homme

My version of Avatar inspired make up and a nice tag!

So here are some pictures of a make up I did yesterday evening. These are the colors that come to my mind when I think of Avatar. I know that all over the Internet people are doing Avatar make up, but I wanted to do a version that I could actually wear to a club or a special party or smth. (you can't really wear the "all face blue" version). Unfortunately the picture are very low quality because the camera that I usually use had a low battery and I had to take the photos with another camera that doesn't work good on macro mode.

I wanted to use pink in the make up because I am so in love with the "Avatar" nature of Pandora, where everythi g is pinky, shiny and sparkling. I just love those pink plants :x ...

Tell me how you like it :D

I used an Avon Magix Primer, colors from my Beauty Factories, Oriflame black eye liner, Maybelline Colossal mascara and another Avon eyebrow brown pencil (cheap products, as you can see, I used them basically because we can't find MAC, Nars, Urban Decay or brands like these in Romania...).

Sorry for showing you my hairy eyebrows, I was before tweezing. These are not my regular eyebrows :)))


I would also like to say "Thank you a lot!" to Michelle from Glisters and Blisters, you must know her, she is an amazing blogger (check it out!) and she just past me the following tag. It is so fun to do this, since I don't really write a lot of things about my life here and maybe it would be interesting for people to know stuff :P

This is what I had to do: write 12 likes, 1 love and 8 hates. Below, the bold words are the ones you must include in your post. Also, please link it back to me and to other 3 bloggers you admire!

Today is the Baptise Eve. Tomorrow we will celebrate the Baptise in Romania, a celebration of Jesus being baptised. Today the priest of the neighbourhood comes to everybody's house to bless it. It came to mine too :)
In some ways, I love everything.
It's less, of a thing to like, it's less distinct, it's less particular.
I like things that I like but I love everything.

New Year's Eve costume : Cruella de Vil !

Hy and Happy New Year!
I am so exited about posting my New Year's Eve costume as Cruella de Vil and also my bf's costume as Joker :D

We had so much fun at that party. It was just a small party with close friends at someone's house, but we danced a lot and laughed a lot because every character was playing it's role and it was crazy! They did had a little puppy girl named Madonna that they didn't bring to the party. They were probably afraid I will make a collar out of her :))

The make-up turned out ok even thou after doing it I realised that the eyebrows should have been a litlle more arched. I followed Kandee's tutorial on doing it and hopefully it was a good job. The hardest part was covering my eyebrows. I did the make up of the Disney cartoon movie, not the one from the actual real people movie :)

The hair was harder to do, don't ask me how I washed it out... I applyed a ton of hair spray and white spray but the fun part was that 1 hour before we left I realized I couldn't fing my bobby pins and I had only 6 of them holding all my hair! It was and adventure holding it together all night long...

I also put make up on my bf and that was even harder because we didn't have special wax for doing the scars and I just draw them :P

But all in all it was a wonderful night and I am so enthusiastic about 2010!

Have a wonderful year everyone and thank you so much for the people who follow me and comment at my posts! I look forward to reading your comments every moment of my day! They make me feel so happy! Hope 2010 will be bring me many many followers and hope this blog will get even better with your help :)

Cruella and Joker. Both evil characters :)))) The fur is fake thou, you've seen it before in some photos

This was my outfit. The dress is custom made for me :) The red gloves and the turquoise earrings are the Cruella signature :)

Simply miserable darling!... (I quite smoking in august, this was just for impersonating Cruella ;)

I love this pic, I feel so glam in it :D "I live for fur!"

The Joker and his business cards ;) Hope his make up turned out ok, but he kept eating and drinking his lipstick :))

A group pic. Company lady, Vadim Tudor (a very funny, crazy Romanian politician, we laughed so much with his impersonating!!), Arabic woman, Cruella, punk rock chick, a P.I.M.P., a couple that wasn't playing any roles, Catwoman, Joker and Zombie.

Tell me what do you think about me as Cruella :D ?
I surely enjoyed being her !
