Getting The Perfect Cat

Happy Monday I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

Today I wanted to talk about eye make-up and the Cat-eye look. Now if you know me, you probably already know I love the Cat-Eye look SHOCKING I KNOW. It is like my everyday look..hahaha. I really do love a good cat eye what can I say ? 😉 Depending on how thick and how long the tails of the cat-eyes are. You can easily go from chic to edgy is no time. They are perfect for casual settings or fancy dressed up parties or weddings. I myself tend to get a little bold and usually have a heavier cat (might be why I go through so many eye pencils and liquid eye liner so fast). It’s also because I’m so pale I feel like it really pops my eyes. I’m just a girl that can’t tan nor do I like too.

So, I went ahead and drew up a how to on how to get the perfect cat-eye! Follow these simple steps below and you won’t go wrong! perhaps you’ve been already been doing this look for sometime. Still look at the how to because I found it was a easier way than how I had been doing it.

I also included eyeliners and eye pencils that are my absolute favorites. Oh yes and a few different cat-eye looks that you should experiment with. Remember it takes practice so, if you make a mistake try again you will eventually get it. Oh yes and have fun! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog all the time and reading my posts!Cat1.| Starting your flick line should only be an extension of the lower lash and eye opening.

This will give a nice clean end tip of your cat-eye flick (that is important) 3.|After your line is drawn create a triangle. So from your first line start at the top and draw the next line going down to create a triangle like I mentioned. 4.| Starting in the middle and working forward in small strokes draw your line right next to your lash line. 5.| Now connect the line from the middle of your eye to the triangle. 6. Fill in the triangle are and and make make the line on your lash line as thick as you want. For beginners I suggest starting with a light easy cat don’t go bold as your still trying to get your technique down (but do have fun). Last and final step line your upper water line with a eyeliner pencil and add mascara to your lashes and your done! Continue Reading

Diamonds are a girls best friend right ? Well are you ready to be in awe of some beautiful jewelry ?  Knowing that every girl loves jewelry and especially the kind that sparkles including me! I wanted to search and share with you some of my favorite pieces that are sure to make any girl feel glamorous. So, here are some of my picks for bridal jewelry that is just perfect for any girls wedding day,  for any special occasion, or just because. I have also put together and styled a couple of necklaces and earrings that go well together.

Remember when choosing jewelry you always want to decide which piece is going to be your focal point. So if you have decided that the necklace is the focal point everything else should just compliment not distract, compete, or take attention away from it. Chandelier earrings, with a big bulky bracelet and bib necklace combined will make you look like you raided your grandma’s closet instead of helping highlight your beauty and complete your look.

More than anything just remember to have fun. Remember the key points above and you are sure to look amazing on your special day!
