I Want To Be An Actor!

Ever since I was a little girl, any time I watch a movie or television series, I replace a character or two with myself. I could always picture myself on that screen, telling different stories. I never believed in   myself enough to chase it as a child, because I never felt that I could truly relate to the girls I saw on my TV screen. 

I decided to create different dreams; more "realistic" dreams. I have always enjoyed  writting (my inner artist trying to shine through) and meeting new people, so I decided Public Relations is  the route for me! I fell in love with my major more and more as the years went by, but I felt that I needed  a place where I could express myself freely. Hence, my Youtube Channel and Blog are born!  

Creating these platforms and watching them grow are my favorite  joys. Being  able to influnce others in a fun, creative and positive way has always been my bottom line with everything I do. I  feel inspired everyday, because I know there are people watching what I do for inspiration. Again, I get that feeling of wanting to do more.

I became uninspired by what I was seeing around me. But, on January 21st, 2017 I went to go see the movie Moonlight, and my life changed. This film came out at the perfect time, was written perfectly, and left a mark on me. Slowly, but surely I was beginning to learn  that it was okay to have big dreams that most people don't chase. I was going to be that outlier. 

I've purchased several books to begin my studies. As I turn each page I fall more and more in love with the art. I know this is what I am supposed to be doing. I am going to create and inspire. I'm so happy to be bringing you on this journey with me. Let's see where it takes us!

Canary Velvet

                     

Jacket: H&M

Dress: Zara

Shoes: Converse

Choker: Forever 21

                     

                     

When I found this dress on sale on Zara's website, I added it to my cart as fast as I could! This dress was so affordable, that I decided to purchase another one! (In a different style of course) I only paid $7.99 for this dress, yes you read that correctly, $7.99! If you've ever shopped in a Zara store or online, you know that they can be quite expensive, but they sell pieces that you can wear for years.

I love the way this dress fits, because it's not too tight and it's not too oversized. I also love the brightness of this dress! It's an absolute closet staple. This piece is also very versatile, in that you can dress it up or down. Here you can see that I've gone for the more casual look with my converse sneakers, but if I wanted to dress this up a bit, I'd throw on some heels, add a silver necklace, and ditch the jacket (it's springtime).

What springtime trends are you rocking this year?

Reason's I'm Watching "Sweet/ Vicious"

On Tuesday, November 15th, Sweet Vicious premeired on MTV, and I was here for every second of it. I began noticing the advertisments for the show, while watching some of my other favorite programs. At first glance, noticed 3 of my favorite qualities in television: comedy, a cause, and 2 female leads. I knew that this was going to be a show worth watching. Sweet Vicious is about 2 college students (Jewels and Ophelia), who also happen to be vigilantes, out to put an end to sexual harrassment and rape on their college campus. The second episode premeired on November 22nd, and if you are still not conviced to give the show a chance, let me give you a few reasons to tune in:

1. Girl Power!

This show is action packed with girl power and strength. I am an advocate for women using their skills and strengths to make a difference in areas often over looked and dominated by the opposite sex. I guess I have the Spice Girls to blame for that! 

Jewels and Ophelia are no punks. The kick butt first and ask questions later, mainly because they already know their victims are guilty!

2. Sheds a light on an important epidemic

Numbers like these are scary to come to terms with. Some people choose to ignore the harsh realities of sexual assault, but "Sweet/ Vicious" is here with an in your face message, letting predators know that we WILL NOT stand for this.

3. The Satirism

There are so many funny moments in this show. Each of the characters bring their own sense of humor, but I have to say that Ophelia is the funniest of the crew. Her quirky comic relief never ceases to amaze me. Paired with that amazing teal hair, she is hands down a breath of fresh air.

4. Brandon Mychal Smith

Look at this gorgeous creature!! He plays Harris, a dedicated law student, and Ophelia's right hand man.  I love when shows give me a bit of eye candy throughout the season, and he is just what the doctor ordered!

Also, can we talk about MTV highlighting the racial profiling Harris received, which is sweeping the nation in episode 2!?

Hopefully you guys will give this show a chance, because it is worth it! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm watching episode 3 as I type this!

Star Crushed Minerals

I first heard about the brand "Star Crushed Minerals" on Instagram. Elenor Barnes aka @Snitchery on Instagram, posted a picture of some swatches on her arm, along with a promo code. From the look of her swatches, I had to try some of these products for myself. 

I hopped onto my computer, went to the website, and began adding things into my cart. I  unintentionally bought the colors of the rainbow and intentionally bought some glitter adhesive (shown below)! 

Left to Right: 

Top Row- Dune Buggy Green, Orchid, Blue Lotus, Aged to Perfection Champagne

 Bottom Row- It's My Party, The Great  Pumpkin,  14K

These shadows are highly pigmented, long lasting, and statement makers! I love that they are a finely  milled mineral formula, because this makes it easier to blend the  colors. 

FINAL  VERDICT: I will definitely be  purchasing more from this company, because not only do  they have amazing products, they also have exceptional customer  service!

If  you haven't  already, try these mineral shadows  for  yourself,  and let your inner unicorn out!
