Love Affair With Vintage

My love affair with Vintage started around december 2011... When i got my first vintage top from a flee market in Nigeria. I styled the top with a pair of acid wash jeans and a pair of black charlette russe heels. Once i got back to Chicago ... No job, or Money i decided to go to my first thrift store. (Village Discount). Love at first sight . The rest is history

Recently i visited Unique Thrift Store and found these two dresses ... Can you say yum yum

Just For Fun

Make Over Hot Pink

Lately i'm inspired by everything...

Primer...Primer

Makeup can get very expensive. From foundation , eyeliner, primers, powders,shadows, blush... Makeup artist spend large amounts of cash to keep their kit up to date. I may be late on this but while watching youtube i came across a video. Milk Of Magenesia as primer.

Magnesium is a naturally occurring mineral. Magnesium is important for many systems in the body . Magnesium hydroxide also reduces stomach acid, and increases water in the intestines which may induce defecation. (sorri guys :(

Ladies this product works i've been using it for 1 month now and honestly its my go to product for brides, photoshoot , and prom girls. It keeps the face matte all day. Depending on your skin,
you may have to powder 1st.

DIY

Take two bottles one with a spray lid and the other with out. Mix the one with the spray lid half/half ...mix and use.

Ebony

Im loving the new cover girls. The boy is mine ladies looked stunning in pink and yellow. Thumbs up to the makeup artist.

Poetic Justice...

DIY... SKIRT

We've all seen the skirts, party in the front, study hall in the back. As gorgeous as look, they can get pretty expensive. I took the liberty of visiting one of my fav thrift stores and got a $1 skirt to recreate the look.

What you need:
Skirt
Sewing Machine or Needle & thread if your good
Scissors
Design Inspiration

Games Of Thrones

GOT is one of my favorite shows. I watch it faithfully every sunday at 8pm HBO. Love all the characters and Drama.... Could do without all the sex. My favorite Character from season 2 is the Red head Priestest. Honestly she as one of the smallest roles to me, but i Love the line she repeats " The Night is Dark and Full of Terrors".. I guess this look was inspired by her.

Inspire Me

I was looking at flowers all day, and dreaming about summer vacation. I came across this gorgeous flower and decided to do my makeup. Here is what i came up with !

lips NYX pink push, Eyes Manly Pallette, Eye Brow NYX brown pencil.

Sewing (DIY)

I got my Sewing Machine and i love it. Its an old Singer Machine. What does this mean? DIY  projects! can't wait to make some adjustments to my vintage Digs.
