I use every morning!
This palette has more warm tones than the Naked 2 palette. This is great for creating a fierce smoked out eye look. Though, of course, it also has more neutral tones for your everyday eye. This palette contains 12 colors including 6 exclusive shades (Sidecar, Hustle, Virgin, Buck, Naked, and Creep). These colors are great for darker or olive skin tones. Many of my close friends swear by this palette! This palette may not seem so but it is actually very different from the Original Naked Palette. It has a perfect mixture of cool and warm tones. There are a total of 12 colors including 5 exclusive shades (Bootycall, Tease, Snakebite, Pistol, and Busted). This palette has been known to work wonderfully with fairer skin tones. This one is my personal favorite which I use every morning! Overall, I believe that even with a $50.00 price tag, that either of the naked palettes are completely 100% worth it. I have had mine for over a year and it is still going strong. It is easy to travel with and don't leave you fussing around with eye shadow singles. Though this palette may look extremely basic for far away, these beautiful colors are very versatile and unlike any others. 1. Urban Decay Original Naked Palette, $50.00 2. Urban Decay Naked 2 Pallette, $50.00 3. MUA Undressed 12 Shade Palette, $6.00

It took me a while to sway from my neutral and darker fall/winter polish colors, but I am finally in Spring mode! Im in love with bright colors from blues to greens to pinks to yellows! I love it all! My personal favorite polish color of the moment is Lime Crime's Parfait Day, it is the perfect barbie pink. If you have never heard of Kate Spade, you are truly missing out! Her style is elegant and chic with bright colors anywhere she can add them! I just started my Kate Spade collection a week ago by purchasing a beautiful iPad case which you will soon see in my upcoming "What's In My Bag Video"! Oh my gosh, this completely amazed me! Just watch it, trust me! Oh Lana darling, not only is she absolutely stunning but her music is breathtaking. She has a voice that will bring you back to years before your time and seem to form memories that are impossible because you weren't there. Her voice is soothing and has a special quality to it that makes everything bad and toxic in life wash away leaving life beautiful and flawless. This quickly became my favorite movie of all time. It was visually stunning and left you wishing your were in the movie dancing the night away at one of Gatsby's lavish parties. This movie was a remake done absolutely right. It did not disappoint one little bit! I highly recommend checking it out! This lesson is an important part of beauty basics that not many girls know about and that is when to toss your makeup. I know it sounds crazy, that makeup actually has an expiration date! But it does and though you might think it won't do much harm, it can change the way your makeup looks and feels and even in some cases become harmful to your skin. Using expired eye products can cause infection to your eye. For example, mascaras are a liquid based product which is a great medium for all kinds of bacteria, by using the old mascara you are transferring the bacteria directly to your eye! Same goes with liquid foundation but instead of going to your eye, that built up bacteria is seeping into your skin which can cause acne breakouts, irritation and in some cases infection to your skin. A few signs to look out for that might suggest an expired product are a change in texture, color and even smell. When your foundation develops a weird smell and starts to separate toss it right away. Below are a few products with their corresponding "trash it' date. I would suggest keeping track of the day you purchase an item so you can refer back to it when the time comes to maybe get rid of it. Statement Necklaces have become a huge trend in 2013. It is all about big, bold, eye catching necklaces that make heads turn! It is a fun way to add some color into your outfit. It even adds a touch of elegance in some cases. These necklaces used to be for special occasions only, but not anymore! This year it is more casual than ever. You could even pull it off with a pair of denim cutoff shorts and a white v neck tee! If you are having trouble trying to figure out how to style this busy necklace then don't worry! I have created two different outfits using the same necklace to suit every girl! Whether you go for a more fancy style or casual and effortless these necklaces can work for you! Or should I say you can work the necklace! Necklaces 1.

You can even pair them with some destroyed denim shorts and a over sized pocket tee. If you did not see my post from the other day click here to learn all about why I am LOVING Zara right now! Oh my gosh! This is so funny! I don't know why it took me so long to find this. I also don't know why they don't have a full time show together. I was laughing the entire time. And they are actually surprisingly really great together! Truth is, there was a time when I didn't really care for Justin. My favorite movie of all time is the Social Network. After seeing him play, Sean Parker, I automatically stopped liking him because his character was a jerk! But after hearing his new album I have grown to love him again! Keep doing what you're doing JT! I mean really? How CUTE is this picture! I saw this in this month's In Style Magazine and fell in love! Not only because Diane Von Furstenberg is coming to Gap but this little girl is absolutely precious! If you have never heard of Zara before, don't worry I will tell you about it, and you will become obsessed. I am usually on their site three to four times a day! I get a lot of styling inspiration from their collection of amazing pieces. I especially love their handbags, shoes and accessories. Zara has the perfect mix between modern and classic pieces. It has the amazing high end designer look and quality without the high end price tag. They have items in the store to suit every type of girl! They even have a men's and kids store too. Zara pieces are timeless. You can rest assured that anything you purchase, especially handbags, will never go out of style. This has become my favorite store and I can not wait to start my personal Zara collection this weekend! That black bag below will be mine! 1. Office City Bag, $89.90 2. Wide Heel Sandal With Ankle Strap, $79.90 3. Suede Bowling Bag, $29.00 4. Golden Buffalo Head Pendant, $19.90 5. Shopper with Braided Handles, $79.90 6. High Heel Vamp Shoe, $89.90 7. Printed Fabric Clutch, $49.90 8. Leather Sandal, $89.90 9. Chain Link Necklace With Skulls, $29.90 The City Girl is all about the Neutrals. But starting with foundation, with running around all day you need a high coverage foundation that will leave you with a flawless finish. For cheeks add a hint of color that will last all day long by going for a cream blush or a cheek stain. The naked basics palette is perfect for the on-the-go girl! It has six great neutral shadows in one small compact palette. Great to throw in your bag when you are running around the city. Of course, along with the eyes, you cant forget a touch of black liner and some amazing lashes to pull the look together! Finish the look off with a bold red lip and a mist of your favorite elegant perfume and you are out the door and ready to tackle your busy day! Are you a beach babe? For a more fun and flirty look, go for some pops of bright color in lips and cheeks. For those two colors try to stick within the same color family to avoid clashing. For example, the two colors I picked are in the coral family but the blush is a tad bit of a lighter shade. Choose a foundation such as a BB Cream or a tinted moisturizer for a lighter more natural coverage and finish. Stick to a more neutral eye by sweeping a champagne shimmer across the lid and a couple coats of a mascara with great length and volume. Finally, finish up with a spritz of your favorite floral perfume and you are beach ready in no time! Or are you a Vampy Vixen? If so, you most likely go with an oxblood red polish and lipstick to round out the look, keeping it bold and daring. Though most girls wouldn't choose a red lip with a smoky eye, you do because you take risks remember? So don't play it safe! Work this look like no other girl can! City Girl Chic 1.
