Beyonce!

Who knew Beyonce Knowles, was pretty fashionable! Last time I saw one of her music videos, she was stomping around in a puffy vest, bra, short shorts and stiletto boots. Well, she has defiantley changed! Enjoy these few looks of Beyonce, and the last one is different than normal! What do you think of it?



It's the end of the Hols, and I'm sure some of you have a few more places to go, so why not wear this? Exchange the heels for some flats, and your ready to hit the plane, or the car! You'll look fab getting out, as well as in :)

Top: JCrew
Jeans: Forever21 (Onsale for 12.50, and they're amazing!)
Scarf: Brown's Fashion, also H&M and F21
Shoes: Boutique, Macy's has similar items
Necklace: Forever21



Not going to lie, I love love love this look! How cute is it?! So perfect for running to class, or to catch a bus!

Top: Abercrombie
Cardigan: Abercrombie
Pants: AE
Beret: Urban Outfitters
Shoes: Old Navy
Necklace: Forever21



So, this is my suprise. Get Beyonce's MAKEUP look. A little different than normal, but decided I'd try it! You can find all these products at your local drugstore! The simple way to get Beyonce's gorgeous look! First, apply eyeliner to above, and below eyes. Swipe on one layer of lash primer, and two of mascara. Dust a bronzer on the apples of your cheeks. Swipe on the gloss! Here's a little trick to make your whole face glow; stick a little bit (and I mean little) of vaseline on the tip of your nose! It'll make your whole face glow!

For her hair, wash, and dry until 80% dry. Stick mutliple hair curlers in your hair, in the largest size. Blow hair dry .... Take out curlers, and finger comb your hair . Spray with Dove Hairspray (leaves hair feeling uncrispy!). For her bangs, take yours and with a hair straightener, and straighten them, but at the very end, bring the hair straightener towards your head, giving it the little curl at the end!

There you go! You now look like Beyonce!

Miley Cyrus

Oh, Miley. What can I say about her. With her scandalous pictures out every other week, and the things you hear about her... you wonder goes on in her pretty, little head. Although I do like her music ;) Miss Miley might not be the best rolemodel, but she does have some damn cute clothes! Here are three! These will be the last for awhile; I'm leaving for camp tomorrow, and won't be back till Friday evening!

Miley



Miley is always in on the trends. Shirt dress, oversized glasses, boots, and a belt around the waist. It has potential to be overkill, but on her? Perfect.

Dress: Oli
Boots: Urbanoutfitters
Belt: Wetseal
Bag: Forever21
Sunglasses: Forever21

Miley II



Not going to lie, and easy outfit to recreate. I've seen these pieces so many times, it's insane. It's a cute look though. Simple, but cute!

Shirt: Urbanoutfitters
Tank: American Eagle
Shorts: Hollister
Shoes: Hollister

Miley III



I find it so fun to take generic stores, like AE and HCO, and and make an outfit using them, that doesn't really look like there from those stores. Maybe that just makes sense to me, but I love it. A great look for shopping!

Shirt: American Eagle
Jeans: HCO
Bag: American Eagle
Shoes: Forever21
Necklace: Forever21

That's all for now! Please comment!!

Stay Fashionable,

Lauren and Rachel

Well ladies, this will be my last post for a few weeks. I'm leaving today for a week, than I'll be back for 7 days, than I'm leaving for five days, than I have a bunch of stuff with my friends planned, so who knows when I'll post something next! I've decided to do my two favorite ladies for this post; Lauren Conrad and Rachel Bilson.

LC



Not going to lie, I love this! The shirt would be tucked in the the skirt, with the cardigan overtop, exactly like the photo! Perfect for lunch with grandma, or walking by the beach!

Top: Abercrombie
Cardigan: Forever21
Skirt: American Apparel
Shoes: Steve Madden
Glasses: PacSun
Bag: Urbanoutfitters

Rachel Bilson



She is too cute! She always has the best clothing, and cute hair, and she's gorgeous! This outfit totally looks hot on her!

Mischa and Reese

One of my favorite viewers wanted a few outfits by Reese Witherspoon and Mischa Barton, especially for Keds. Here are the outfits I made for the lovely, Zoe.

Reese Witherpoon



I can't lie; I am extremely biased towards the lovely Reese. She is beautiful, amazing, funny ... and she's always my hair cut picture. This outfit is perfect for walking around downtown, or a luncheon with the family!

Dress: Wetseal
Cardigan: Delia's
Shoes: Target
Bag: Topshop
Necklace: Forever21

Mischa for Keds, Part One



Yet another cute look from Mischa Barton. Yes, this one has been staged, since it's an advertisment, but it's still gorg... and extremely risky!

Coat: StyleFinder
Shirt: Alloy
Jeans: Topshop
Belt: Macy's
Shoes: Keds

Mischa for Keds, Part Two



I love this look! Especially since it's so accesible from my wardrobe! Most girls have flare jeans, a screen tee, and some form of converse/keds. Than just a dangly necklace! It's such a simple outfit, but it looks absololutely perfect, and comfy. Great for a "lazy day".

Shirt: Delias
Capris: Delias
Shoes: Keds
Necklace: Wetseal

Beach Wear?

The Beach. Wear most teenage girl spends 99% of her summer. Cute boys, sand, cute boys, water, and, of course, hot boys! You need to look cute, but also be practical. Guys want girls that aren't afriad to get a little wet, and play, versues laying there tanning. So get swimming, in these outfits! Ya for corniness!

Audrina:



Absolutely perfect for listening to your iPod, and playing sand volleyball. Tip: To get Audrinas gorgeous locks, spray a salt spray ( I suggest Sunsilk Waves of Envy, $4)and scrunch. You'll get effortless beach waves.

Swimsuit: Amazon
Shorts: Hollister
Sandals: Abercrombie
Sunglasses: Dior, Target has similiar ones as well!

Kate Beckinsdale:



Perfect for walking around with your daughter, or hanging out while your nannying. Maybe just switch the heels for sandals, or better yet, barefoot.

Dress: Net-a-Porter
Heels: Topshop
Sunglasses: Instyle - Wetseal

Kate Bosworth:



I love this. She just got out of the water, and the swim suit looks awesome on her! Perfect for her small frame. And may I say, her abs are insane!


Swimsuit: Net-a-Porter, Gap or Target

That's all for now! Please comment :]

Stay stylish,

Lauren Conrad (and a lil Hil)

She has just a lovely fashion sense! It's clean, simple, modern, and absolutely gorg. So here's a whole post (inspired by Kate) of LC. Plus, one of Hil.

Work



This is the absolute best look for a work day. It's cute and trendy, but it's more intresting than a boring skirt and shirt. Plus, the jeans are amazing. They are nice enough to still look professional.

Top: Abercrombie
Jeans: Urbanoutfitters
Shoes: Net-a-Porter
Bangles: Oldnavy

Casual Saturday



This outfit is also a winner. It looks totally put together and beautiful. Perfect for wandering around town, or hanging out with your friends.

Missed Me?!

Hopefully you did! Sorry for the lack of posts; about 2 monthes of 'em! I've been buy, and kinda forgot all about this. So heres a few more I've made.

Nicole Richie



I personally, love this look. It's taken a spin on highwaisted pants. She made them look cool, which is hard to do in every day life.

Top: Forever21
Shorts: Topshop, also at UO
Shoes: Net - a - porter
Glasses: UO
Bag: Gucci


The Hills: Season One



This is what results when I'm bored: 4 outfits in one. I love the girls styles, and there all so different. I thought these were perfect for work... besides Audrinas.

I would love to tell you wear all these things are from, but it would take forever. Click the link, and it'll tell you on the right hand side of the page. :]

Vanessa Anne Hudgens



Maybe it's just me, but I'm really starting to like V.A.H's style. It looks really nice and put together, but it also looks like she didn't spend 896476 hours trying to put it together.

Top: Miss. Selfridge
Jeans: AE
Scarf: Newlook
Shoes: Abercrombie
Glasses: Oldnavy
Bag: UO

Miley Cyrus



I think Miley is just like V.A.H. Both had risque pictures out, both I wasn't a huge fan of... both have great style! I love this look, it really makes a raglan sleeved top look good! Now I know how to wear mine :)

Top: Forever21
Jeans: Charolette Russe:
Shoes: Barney's
Necklace: Target

Rachel Bilson


I love this look! Rachel looks cool (literally!), classy and feminine. It's a great look for running errands early in the morning and not wanting to throw on a whole gorgeous number! But the great thing about this outfit is that it can be worn out for a nice day as well. It's very versatile.

Jeans; Miss.Selfridge
Shoes; Zappos (similiar things at Forever21, DSW and UO)

This look is great! It's chic, put together and sophisticated. It's great for going to a party or out to an opera.

Dress; Oli
Cardigan; JCrew
Shoes; GoJane
Bag; Macy's

Last Look



Again, another very strong, chic look. This is so similiar to the first one; it's a fast throw on outfit, but it can also be worn to school looking nice and put together. Rachel really knows what she's doing!

Dress; Forever21
Belt; American Eagle
Shoes;JCrew
Bag; Topshop

That's all for now! Keep posted!
