Browsing around different websites, blogs, and fashion shows, I've noticed that hair will be very natural and effortless this spring. Each look takes about 2 minutes at the most, and it really gives us a break from scorching our hair with heating tools.
1. Buns Messy, neat, curly, straight, low, high, braids, no braids, it's your decision how you want your bun to look. Don't be afraid to get creative and find the perfect look for you.
2. Volume
and nothing but.
to get volumized hair, just check out YouTube videos. I've listed a few for you:
If your hair is thin, hard to volumize, or if you don't want to tease it:
3. Braids
I thought this tutorial was so simple, creative, and cute! It's definitely something you can wear.
4. Wavy, messy hair
Embrace your natural waves! I hate seeing girls with gorgeous waves, but they always fry it with a straightener! Wavy hair is beautiful and not everybody has the same waves. Give your hair a break, and just let it flow. 5. Deep side parts
6. Big clips
I like how this look also incorporates a sleek, low bun.
Cute idea, but I wouldn't wear this for Valentine's Day. It's a bit too much in my opinion. But then again, wearing a usual red or pink is typical and you'll look just like every woman at the restaurant your boyfriend treats you to. How do you stand out and look stylish without looking like you agonized over what color to decide on? I have a few choices fit for all ages and personalities :) OPI's Katy Perry "Teenage Dream"
Cute and sweet. The sparkles add a fun mix to the color. The Katy Perry collection comes with 4 colors, each titled with some of her songs on the Teenage Dream album. Listen to each of the songs, and it matches perfectly with the colors.
Sparitual's "In Pink"
The thing that I love about SpaRitual is that not many people know the brand, and it's eco-friendly.The colors are absolutely gorgeous. They're my absolute favorite and it's the only nail polish that goes on my nails, seriously. I find that it lasts longer than all of the other brands, and the colors look beautiful with my skin tone. Take a look at their other collections, and try these polishes. I promise you, you will not regret it.
Nicole by OPI "Have A Heart"
Deborah Lippmann's Razzle Dazzle
I absolutely love this color! I think it's so gorgeous. It's glittery, but it's a dark raspberry color; different from typical Valentine's Day light pinks, reds, and purples!
Chanel's Le Vernis 475 Dragon
The previous colors I posted were soft, girly, and glittery. If you're looking for something simple and a bit darker, Chanel's no.475 Dragon is perfect. Along with:
Essie's Lollipop
and the rest is pretty much any one of these colors
Whether or not you have a Valentine this year, I encourage you to try these out! It doesn't have to be just a solid nail color; add glitter to it, a design, or do a French tip, an instant classic! Don't be afraid to do a different color for the French instead of white. Get fun and creative with your nail color this Valentine's day; you and your date will appreciate it. :)

So many girls and women make these common mistakes; don't be one of them!
Did you see the gorgeous colors in this Stila palette?
A $108 value for only $15 at Sephora, online only!
I actually bought two Stila travel palettes online two days before Christmas. It was a $65 value on sale for $10. In fact, they still sell them. There are 3 different themes: Fabulous in Fiji, Trendsetting in Tokyo, and Adventurous in Aspen. Hurry up and get them though; it's online only and limited edition! I bought Fabulous in Fiji and Adventurous in Aspen because it seemed more of the colors I'd wear.
I'm dying for the palette that's now on sale now. Check every week to see if there are any good deals, because Sephora has weekly specials! It ranges from product samples to actual mini beauty products that's usually in a under $25 price range.
If you already haven't, sign up with them, join beautyinsider, and spend $365 each year to be eligible for their V.I.B. as well. You reap what you sow, and you'll love what Sephora will give back to you :)
