I LOVE how there are no rules for hair anymore! Styles from the 20's-80's are makeing a comeback! Here is a peak at my 80's inspired wedding updos Hope you LIKE!

These are just one of the styles I did for a wedding party I had!
I remeber looking at my moms wedding pictures and her hair was very similar to these girls I did...
I love how there is no specific "look" anymore people are just starting to style there hair to fit there face and body and thats the way it should be!

Here is a pic of the back......On one of the girls I did a bridal braid to change to look a little and it was amazing.....sad to say I dont have a pic of it but you can imagine ; )

Some girls had tighter curls and others loose curls It was so pretty
Well these are the latest and greatest for wedding updos hope you liked them!

 Ok, so I have been in Sephora about 100 times lately, trying to find the perfect foundation for my skin. I have combination skin with the acne prone skin. Funny thing is I have more acne prone skin now then I did when I was 16! Unbelievable! So, anyways I started with Make Up Forever and loved it so much. It gave me the full coverage and flawless look that I loved. Until I started to break out like cray cray!! That is unacceptable, so I decided to change it up and tried Cover FX. I am extremely pleased with their concealer, just not their line of foundation. The foundation was sticky and never seemed to dry. It also made my face feel dry and I broke out even more! Sooo..then I moved on to Smashbox Studio Skin. I thought this would be my answer since I love MAC's Studio Fix. I was insanely wrong. It gave me the coverage I wanted, but I still was breaking out! I was baffled I had tried everything. So, I ended up with NARS Matte Foundation which, is the best coverage and has helped my skin dramatically. I would honestly compare it to the MAC Studio Fix Foundation. Its 100% oil free and has buildable coverage. hearts <3



The best concealer to hide those under eye circles or blemishes would have to be Smashbox Camera Ready. I have struggled with dark circles my whole life and this covered them up in a jifffy.


I die for my new skin care regiment, PeterThomasRoth. It is simply amazing. My skin has never felt better. It also helps with any acne that might occur. I highly recommend you try if you have acne prone skin.

Hope you like these new products :) Go to Sephora and ask for some free samples !!

Hair braids and Sunglasses!!

Sorry for the lack of posting in the past couple of weeks. I have been packing for our big move to Las Vegas. I am actually in the car right now! I thought I would thought I would bring some style into the trip and give you the latest hair and accessory styles I have found.

First, hair braids have been all the rage. Whether it is a cute french braid or a side fishtail braid. They are all gorge. I love using a french braid to keep my bangs out of my face. It works great! Kim Kardashian wears both types of braids and  looks amazing !


I think I fell in love when I found these 2 tone sunglasses. They are in style for fall and you can find them anywhere from Target to Forever 21. Style can be cheap ladies!!

HALLOWEEN LEOPARD!!! Good for kids and adults

See the B4
And The AFTER


All I did was....
Used a darker foundation around the hair line, nose and around the mouth
Took eye liner around the eyes to give a cat eye effect and smudged around the eye with a smude brush
Created a cat like nose with eye liner and colored in the bottom lip with black eye liner
around the face I used the dark foundation to creat spots
Around the spots I colored around with the black eye liner
And I just back combed the hair for a fun cat look!
If you are an aduld trying to acheive this look....
Try false eye lashes and a red lip and if your daring use cat eye contacts!
Find a look that suites you and study it!
Dont be afraid! Theres always makeup remover ; )

How to get glam eyebrows!

As much as we don't want to admit it, we spend a lot of time in front of the mirror trying to fix our eyebrows. I have enlisted my friend Susan, who is an amazing eyebrow specialist, to show us how to get glam eyebrows! I know we can go to the salon and get waxed, but why not do it in the privacy of your own home with no mess!! This will not be the last you see of Susan. She will also be showing us how to thread eyebrows and so on! I would like to add that using an eyebrow pencil to finish the look makes your eyebrows look flawless. So don't forget to apply before you head out on the town!  It's time for the Glam Cam!  Hope you all enjoy~

Bleaching Frenzie!

This weekend Ashley and I decided to lighten my black hair! We decided to first bleach my whole head and then put a level 7 all over then we added highlights. After hours of toning, we decided that didn't turn out how we wanted. So,we made a haul to Sally Beauty and got a medium ash brown and a light ash blonde. That turned out great but we will be adding some more low lights in a few days! Loving my lighter color. Big thanks to Ashley for her hard work and time! We will also be posting our first video soon! Stay tuned!!

Cute girl baby shower ideas that I threw for one of my besties!

Obviously the theme was pink and zebra print my fav!
  • So on the left is a tin beverage containor that i filled with ice and pink drinks such as strawberry soda and dressed it with ribbon
  • I also went to the dollar store and found sparkly pink gift boxes that I filled with strawberry blow pop suckers
  • Its really hard to see but I found strawberry oreos that worked perfect for my theme! 
  • In the middle is another tin beverage holder that I filled with popcorn ball rattles that I made *Just add red food coloring and poke a sucker stick through the popcorn ball and tie a ribbon EZ!
  •  For the diaper cake I found a stuffed animal and dressed it with a tutu that I made for the new baby shhh...(It was cheap and easy to make ;)
  •  At the end is fruit punch w/ frozen cherries and cut limes!
 Most of the objects in the pics are self explainitory but I jus thought I'd share because I am so proud of this shower!

I went to Party City and bought a piggy bank bottle and filled it with gumballs and dressed it with zebra ribbon.......I also used this for one of the games we played at the shower!

The bottles on the top are filled with punch and I also used those for the bottle race game! I came up with this idea for the cake and called my local grocery store and explained wut I wanted and Its exactly wut I wanted! This was a big hit at the shower........I think I had more fun then the mommy to be ; )

Here is one of my bff's and mommy of a beautiful little girl! I didnt get a pic of the centerpeices for the tables but I bought glass cylinder vases and tied ribbon around them wrote out baby girl with sparkly pink letter stickers I got from the craft store and filled the vases with silver and pink hershey kisses for the guests to take home as a treat!
So if you ever plan a shower or a themed party I hope this gives u some inspiration or helps out I had so much fun throwing this party and got lots of compliments and the new baby got tons of gifts! win/win

New beauty supply and salon in Fargo!

Fargo welcomes Ulta to the neighborhood! Can't wait to gte our hands on their items! Check out their website www.ulta.com


Pinup girl looks! Great for halloween or photo shoots for your special someone



For this model I did a hi lite I call *raspberry* and a lo lite *black* for the makeup I did a cat eye with colors that compliment her eye color and outfit! And you cant be a pin up girl without red lipstick ;)

For the hair style I did victory rolls on the top, a pincurl in the back leading down to a french twist/side pony tail!

For the hair I used my curling iron to make the victory rolls and pinned them in place on the top half of my head. For the rest of the hair i just curled it! I did this in 20 minutes for a themed birthday party....It was sooo fun all the guys dressed up like Al Capone

For the makeup up I darkened my eybrows with an eyeshadow that matched my hair color to give it a bolder more arched look, I always use light eye shadow for a cat eye! I have small eyes so to make them look larger I used white eyeliner on my water line and black liner on my lash line. For the lips I did a fuscia pink liner to make my lips appear more luscious lol and I filled them in with a pink lip stick....and a beauty mark just for fun!
HOPE YOU LIKE
MUAH xoxo
