(Sorry if the picture is a little blury.)
Sometimes you might feel a bit insecure about yourslef. You might be thinking, "Oh, I need to wear something prettier, I'll never be like those models." Well, you're wrong. You are gorgeous from head to toe, and you don't need high fasshion to prove it. I mean, look at the set above. Tank top, leather/denim jacket, ripped jeans, clutchbag, and boots. Nothing fancy, but it will get you noticed. See what I mean when I say you don't need expensive clothes? You could wear your hair in loose curls like Beyonce's (below).

This is a really springy outfit, considering all the yellow I've put in there. :D I was originally planning to make it a summer outfit, but the jacket would have been too much. It's pretty simple a acquire. All you need is:
~a yellow ruffles tank top
~ some ripped blue skinny jeans
~ yellow-brown heels
~ yellow leather jacket
~ Hair : Whatever you want really. I suggest you curl your hair and put it on one side of your face, leaving no hair for the other. But that's just my opinion. Pretty much any hairstyle will go with this outfit, seeing as how it is very simple, nothing special.

SHOUT OUT: Kira is making an all new website about Monkey Quest, an AWESOME game! (But I haven't played it. Shhh.... don't tell anyone. =D) Be sure to write POSITIVE comments on it, when it comes.

Are you still getting over that horrible breakup? Well, stop being so miserable! He probably didn't even deserve you, anyways. My friends (you know who you are) always keep bugging me on how I don't have a crush and stuff like that, but I'm pride that I'm a SOLO ACT!!! And you should be, too! Here are my tips on how to show off yourself, and that you're proud to be what you are!
~ Some ripped jeans (to show your rebellious side =))
~ A blouse (it doesn't have to be exactly like the one from above)
~ A pair of cute sandals
~ A pair of colorful earrings
~ A pair of sunglasses to show off =)
~ A bag of your choice (this is definitely optional)
*NOTE* - You can choose any outfit to show that you're a solo act, but this is just the outfit that I'd choose. Here are some songs that really connect to this theme:

This style is kind of flirty, preferably for a date or a special event like that. It's not just your average springtime outfit because it's meant for something more special. I'm not really sure how to explain it. It's just kind of to impress that special guy you're going out on a date with. Yeah, I'll stop talking now and cut to the chase. Here's what you'll need:
~ A flirty dress, preferably one of the hot colors, like red or hot pink.
~ A pair of flats, or high heels (my sister would definitely choose high heels, but I'd choose flats, I'm not really the heel type)
~ A white or creamy-colored clutchbag (in case your date forgot money and you have to pay :D, or some emergency makeup)
~ striking makeup, such as red lipstick, black mascara, etc. Here's a link to a look that is sure to grab the attention of everyone around: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ditvu8AJzJM&feature=related *NOTE* - I'd suggest adding a bit more mascara and slightly darken the eyeshadow, as well as choosing a darker shade of lipstick
~ as for the hair, a waterfall braid will look just as striking as your makeup. Here's a tutorial on how to make it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=8JSuiZwJL4g&NR=1

Do you want to really wow your friends? Well, this look will blow them away. Along with the accesories and makeup, you'll be the center of attention anywhere you go. All you'll need to fulfill this look is:
~ a pretty dress (doesn't have to be purple)
~ a white blazer (to add an 'official' look)
~ high heels
~ a golden-colored clutchbag
~ some freshface makeup (ex. light pink lip gloss, light blush to match your skin tone, clear, brown, or black mascara that's not very intense, some light-colored eyeshadow and eyeliner)
~ the hair is up to you, but I'd suggest some kind of fancy braid to top it off, such as the one below:
~ a pretty dress (doesn't have to be purple)
~ a white blazer (to add an 'official' look)
~ high heels
~ a golden-colored clutchbag
~ some freshface makeup (ex. light pink lip gloss, light blush to match your skin tone, clear, brown, or black mascara that's not very intense, some light-colored eyeshadow and eyeliner)

This is an example of the beautiful herringbone braid, also known as the fishtail braid.
Here's a link to how this braid is made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pH-YBVhFh9A

Which Way to the Beach?
By: Monika =)
Well, it's summer, so I thought of designing a summer outfit! Summer is all about expressing yourself, having fun, and pretty much doing anything you want! So why don't you show all those beach bums what you're made of, which is pure fashion! All you're going to need is:
~ a bathing suit (two-piece or whole; it doesn't matter, as long as it's your choice)
~ a cute beach dress to wear on top
~ some flip flops (or sandals)
~ a neckalce to show off =D
~ a hat of your choice to protect your head from the sun's rays (optional)
~ sunglasses (optional)
~ a beach bag to put all your belongings in

Gaga Style: Be a Little Monster!
5/23/12
By: Kira <3
You don't have to be BORN THIS WAY (HEYYYYY! lol) to get the Gaga look! You simply need to obtain many articles of clothing that are: glitzy, colorful, unusual, bizarre, decorated with weird shapes, glittery, flashy, and somewhat provocative. Also, you will need to have very dramatic and extreme makeup, like bright lipstick, blue blush, multicolor eyeliner, rainbow eyeshadow, and so on. You can even paint your nails Gaga. I reccommend Deborah Lippmann, as shown above. This brand has very sparkly and daring polish. You'll also want according jewelry, like as follows:
~ GIANT earrings
~ rings with big jewels
~ anything cross-themed
~ necklaces with big, colorful pendants
~ peacock feather earrings
~ MANY more!
To get Gaga-ish hair, dye your hair bright colors, throw on a wig, or even get a bizarre hair cut, although that's pretty extreme and long-lasting. Just use your imagination! Also, you should watch some of her music videos for ideas. I've provided some links:

Glasses: Super Stylish
5/23/12
By: Kira <3
Recently, I got glasses. (Read more in my blog!) At first, I was nervous about if they would look nerdy on me, but, luckily, I had had nothing to worry about at all! :D Glasses, I found, are really quite stylish and can add a LOT to your look, if you pick the right glasses for you. Mine are Coach glasses that have tortoiseshell side frames (that hook around your ears) with gold framing on the top half of the lenses, which are oval shaped. You sshould pick out a pair that really looks good with your face and natural coloring. With glasses, you'll look intelligent, cute, and fun!

The Hunger Games, both a series of books and a hit new movie, is full of unique fashion ideas. From the poofy, wild style that Effie Trinket rocks to the simple hunting style, you can get these amazing styles for yourself!
EFFIE TRINKET:
Effie Trinket's look is very bold, colorful, and outrageous. To get her special style, you should fill your closet with clothes that are poofy, glitzy, and wild. Some things you might consider are:
~ poofy tutus/dresses
~ glittery clothes
~ outrageous head accessories (big bows, furry hats etc.)
~ giant earrings (like chandeliers)
~ silk products
~ clothes that are pink, gold, turquoise, and other bright colors
Just use your imagination, and don't be afraid to stand out!
HUNTING:
~ poofy tutus/dresses
~ glittery clothes
~ outrageous head accessories (big bows, furry hats etc.)
~ giant earrings (like chandeliers)
~ silk products
~ clothes that are pink, gold, turquoise, and other bright colors
Just use your imagination, and don't be afraid to stand out!
HUNTING:
It's easy to get Katniss' simple, woodsy look, with a modern twist. If you want a very similar look, try to obtain a brown leather jacket, black shirt, ripped jeans, and hunting boots. Also, for extra similarity, braid your hair. Above, I made a version of Katniss' look that would fit this era. I also made the look a bit more glitzy, with jewelry. To get the basic hunting look, try to follow these:
~ green, brown, black, and cream colored clothing
~ ripped jeans - look like you've been through the thorns or attacked by an animal
~ boots are a must-have
~ Braids, buns, and ponytails
~ Simple patterns; solid colors are best
~ Nothing too glittery, crazy, or bold
~ earthy colors and clothes
As a cool Hunger Games touch, why not add a mockingjay pin or maybe even mockingjay earrings?
THE GIRL WHO WAS ON FIRE:
~ green, brown, black, and cream colored clothing
~ ripped jeans - look like you've been through the thorns or attacked by an animal
~ boots are a must-have
~ Braids, buns, and ponytails
~ Simple patterns; solid colors are best
~ Nothing too glittery, crazy, or bold
~ earthy colors and clothes
As a cool Hunger Games touch, why not add a mockingjay pin or maybe even mockingjay earrings?
THE GIRL WHO WAS ON FIRE:
This is really more of a fancy look. This look is perfect for a prom or formal party. For this look, you'll need:
~ a bright red dress, preferably a princess style off the shoulder
~ mockingjay jewelry or even just gold jewelry of your choice
~ Burmillian, orange, or red nail polish
~ Katniss-style braid
~ red lipstick
~ gold eyeshadow
~ rouge
~ black mascara

This you can where any day. Basicly, you'll need a red shirt, jeans, red shoes, and gold jewelry. It's as easy as that!
IN THE ARENA:
