This came out way cooler than I thought. I had lost a bet so my "embarrassing" thing I had to do was put temporary tattoos on my arm that I would have to wear during this shoot and I actually really like way it came out since I didn't have any festival make-up to accommodate this look. Kimonos are great for festivals because they are light weight but still provide some warmth and having a bustier allows you to get an even tan. But always make sure to wear sun screen! Boots are my thing at festivals because I don't like sand getting into my shoes to tennis shoes and sandals are a big fat no for me. You can never go wrong in black and white.

Watch the video for all three looks.

DIY Sea Shell Bra

I made this bra back in April, I don't know why I didn't make this post sooner.

Materials you'll need:
1 fitted bra
2 large shells
3 different colored pearls
1 bag of clear marbles
1 bottle of Gem-Tac Glue


Although this may feel awkward, put on your bra first. Put the glue on the cups and then place on your shells. I made the first mistake of trying to fit the shell to the bra without having it on so it didn't form to the cup. If you can find lighter shells (I bought mine at Michael's), I would also recommend that so the bra isn't as heavy. If I had my choice, I would have picked a regular bra NOT a strapless so it can support the weight of all the materials you put on it. But the only old one I could find was a strapless one. Once you have your seashells on there's no particular order on how to organize your materials. I would recommend the larger pieces first so that way you fit the smaller pieces between the larger pieces so it looks filled out. I stuck with more blue pieces, but you can really use any ones you want and to get a more shiny effect, put rhinestones throughout the shell and the straps of the bra.
Check out my version below:



So because I had the issue with the cups not fitting onto my body, I ended up using bandaids as pasties which was a bad idea because it just looked like a nipple anyway. -_-
Oh well. If you do make a strapless bra, it'd go with a pasty route rather than putting another bra under it (especially the sticky boobs). It just looks tacky, disjointed and awkward. At least I felt that way. Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable. Good luck! xx

I'm back bitches. I told you. Dead girls can't smile. Stop looking. -A

Have you seen her teeth?
She can't smile cause she's dead.
She's got flowers in her eyes
and roses growing out of her hair.
Your secret's safe with her
as long as she's in her grave.
But if you dig her up,
will she be there?

Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful?

During the middle of making the #pinkbookselfie contest, I decided to take this opportunity to make another look. I'm seriously in love with this hair!! I wish I could have a wig that looked like this all the time.

Yes these shots are really similar but I thought they capture different aspects of the make up or the entire shot itself. As I've mentioned before, hair was inspired by Lana Del Rey from the H&M photoshoot as well as the make-up from multiple live performances of her with a similar style. HOWEVER, because of our different eye shape and features it looks different. I did take a different approach to it and the outlined eye-shadow met up with the cat-eye instead of the crease line that Lana has. Her's tends to be darker and more defined as well with a cat-eye that reaches almost to her eyebrow.  If I get a chance to redo the look I will post it soon.

Put your hands on up for me and feel the paranoia lookbook

I absolutely adore this look because it's so simple and works for multiple occasions.

This dress is great because it's a maxi and it has an embroidered pattern on the back to make it look a bit dressier. Yeah I know, I need new sunglasses and earrings for my looks. I added my flower to the dress to accent my hair and give more color. (Yeah, right it was on my head and I wanted to put the hat on and put it there and took the picture forgetting to take it off.)
Inspiration behind this look was Ella Riot's Karma. So love this song. If you haven't heard it check it out.
