Winter Date Ideas

Winter Date Ideas

Hi girls, it's Tijana! So I love winter dates! They are so cute and sweet! If you want to see what are the best places and ideas for a winter date, keep reading.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Ice skating
My personal favorite. It's fun, cute and it will make the both of you laugh. When you fall, he can help you to stand up, you can hold his hand if you're not very good at ice skating... It's so romantic, right?

2. A walk on the snow
This date idea is great if you want to talk with him a lot. Walk with him in a quiet park while the snowflakes fall on your hair, sit on a bench and watch the stars. Maybe you'll be cold, and he'll give you his scarf. Just imagine it!

3. Snowball fight
This is a great idea if you're planing a double date.
You and him, against your friend and her boyfriend.
It will be amazing, and eveyone is going to have a great time :)

4. Movie night
Movie night at your house is an idea for a long time relationship. You can get a few Christmas movies, some popcorn or candy, a blanket, and you're done! You will bond and have fun!

5. New Year
This date is just for the New Year's Eve! If you're not going to spend New Year with your family, go on a date! You can watch fireworks together, and don't forget about that midnight kiss ;)

6. Hot chocolate
If you want a simple, classic date, just get a cup of hot chocolate, sit on a bench and talk. That brings us to the idea no. 2 - a walk on the snow. Or you can just sit in a coffee shop.


That's all! Comment what's your favorite idea! And sorry 'cause the tip is kind od short, but I still hope it will help :) Good luck with your date, have fun!

Lots of love,
Tijana

Mockingjay review // Charlie

Mockingjay review // Charlie

Hey guys it's Charlie!
So this is my first review of the month and I figured as I went to see this on Friday that it would be a good idea.
So I LOVED this movie! I thought the whole thing was done so well. Normally if you read the book of a movie first and then see the movie it can be a major disappoint as they don't do the book justice but this was amazing. They made the whole thing so good and it was in my opinion just as good as the book. Another great thing about this movie is that I ship Katniss and Peta so I think this was great. So overall the movie was amazing and I don't want to say anything more incase I spoil is for someone who hasn't seen it and wants to. Even if you haven't thought of going to see it I will say that I highly recommend it to anyone pretty much.
Hope you guys liked this!

How to deal with... Annoying and mean classmates

How to deal with... Annoying and mean classmates

Hi guys, Tijana here! If you know, I'm now doing a tip series called 'How To Deal With...' If you don't know what's that, check out my last tip.
This HTDW tip was requested by @bonniemtndog ! Hope it will help xx

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Ignore them.
This is very important! They are being mean because they want to make you mad. Seeing you sad or frustrated, makes them happy. That's why you need to calm down and act like you don't even care. Don't fight with them, just chill, talk with your friends, and act like they're not even in your class.

2. Be kind
That girl is annoying you so much and you just want to slap her? Be kind and nice to her. Use that method to make her confused and never show that you hate her. Then, when she sees that you don't care about her at all, she'll leave you alone.

3. Be with your friends
They understand you and when you're with them, those mean students probably won't bother you. Also, your friends are the people that can make you happy and that can help you out. Always!

4. Try to improve yourself
Get better grades, eat healhy, play a sport, learn a new skill... When they see you being successful and happier than ever, they will be so jelaous and they won't be mean to you again!

5. Tell them what bothers you
If they really take it too far and you just can't ignore it, tell them that you don't like their behavior. But, do it calmly. And never (EVER!) yell or act upset. You don't want to sound like they broke you! No! Act normal and calm!

6. Be positive
Happiness is the most powerful weapon you have! Smile, make jokes, talk with people! That will drive them crazy! And if they still keep trying to make you mad, just ignore it!

7. Don't tolerate violence
If they try to do anything that can hurt you physically, don't tolerate it! Tell your parents, your teacher and your friends. That is very serious and it's not a joke!!

That's all for now! I really hope I helped! Also I want to be a psychologist when I grow up, so your oppinion would mean a lot :)

Lots of love,
Tijana

How To Wear A Beanie

How To Wear A Beanie
Hey guys, it's Hanna.

I've seen lot of people rocking this fashion trend this year and I decided to give you a few tips on how to wear a beanie.

01. Choosing the beanie

ϟ  Consider a neutral color. Bright colors and prints tend to look a little juvenile and will make your style significantly less chic. Black, white, grey, brown, or tan works best, and neutral colors are more versatile overall. If you do want a color, opt for a classic color, like red or blue, and choose a gem tone or a bold color without gravitating toward neon shades.

ϟ  Avoid styles with pompoms, beadwork, or zippers. A simple knit beanie looks classic and stylish, but styles with decorations or embellishments tend to look a little less sophisticated. If you do opt for embellishments, look for a subtle embellishment like decorative brown buttons.

ϟ  Gravitate toward loose-fit styles. Beanies with elastic in them tend to tighten around your forehead. Aside from being uncomfortable and leaving a red line across your skin, a tight-fitting beanie tends to look a little less fashionable.

02. Wearing the beanie

ϟ  Keep the beanie over your forehead for a casual, everyday look. The front of the beanie should be just a little over your eyebrows, and the sides should come down over your ears. Do not pull the beanie all the way down. Instead, leave it a little loose on top and in the back. Push your bangs beneath the hat, especially if they are a little greasy or flat.

ϟ  Add a little twist in back. For a fun little twist on the everyday, wear the hat over your forehead but give it a slight fold in the back. This style, called the "Peter Pan," causes the beanie to sit a little higher on your head and keeps it off your neck. The hat will only cover part of your ears as a result, though. This style works well with both hidden bangs and revealed bangs.

ϟ  Keep cozy by folding the beanie up. While not the most fashionable look, if you plan on being out in the cold for an extended period, fold the hat once around the entire opening. The beanie will be mostly pulled down and snug as a result, making this look more practical than fashionable, and it should cover your forehead, ears, and neck. Wear this style with your bangs hidden.

ϟ  Wear it off the head style. Wear the beanie at the scalp line of the bangs. This will give a fun sophisticated look and it is stylish. Wear white or a lighter peach color with darker or half darker hair and darker or lighter dark with light hair.

ϟ  Give your bangs a little sweep. If you want a look that seems a little more stylish than usual, wear your hat in a looser style further up on your head and leave your bangs out. Sweep them off the the side a bit for a playful twist.

ϟ  Let your bangs hang out. If you have short enough bangs, you can let them hang straight down over your eyebrows. The beanie will flatten your bangs out, though, so this style tends not to work if you have longer bangs that would come down over your eyes. It also works best if you have long hair rather than short or medium hair.

ϟ  Leave you hair down. The easiest thing to do to your hair when wearing your beanie is to simply leave it down. Leaving your hair down prevents any strange bulges from appearing underneath the fabric of your hat, and it also provides you with extra warmth on your neck and ears for the chilly autumn or winter winds.

ϟ  Wear a low ponytail. You can either braid your hair or leave it straight, but if you do decide to wear your hair back, make sure that the ponytail sits low on your head or to the side to keep it from creating an uncomfortable bulge beneath your hat.

More tips:

ϟ  Pack hair serum or hairspray if your hair is dry. People with dry hair tend to get static hair once they take their beanie off. A good hair spray will take care of basic problems, but if you have pickier tresses, you might want to opt for a hair serum, instead.

ϟ  When you know you will be wearing your beanie out, try drying your hair upside down. Doing so will lift the roots, preventing them from getting too flat or greasy when you slip the hat over your head.

And that is it. Hope you like it and try some of these out.

How to DRESS for LESS

How to DRESS for LESS

Hi guys, Tijana here! In this tip you will find some adivices that can help you dress fashionable and spend less money than usual. Hope it helps!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Buy clothes at thrift shops. They have some really cool items that are very cheap. You can find things from H&M, Forever 21 and other popular stores, that are not expensive! I once bought a H&M shirt for $3!

2. DIY things that you don't wear anymore. That way, you'll make them look new, and you won't spend a lot of money (or no money at all!)

3. Buy items that you can use every day. Yes, I also thought those neon pink, $40, 5 inch heels were cute! But you won't be wearing that to school so save your money and buy things that you'll use more than once!

4. Shop at online stores. Things that people sell online are usually not quite expensive. And you can find stuff that have 'free shipping' so you don't pay for the delivery.

5. Wear things you wore last year (if they fit you, of course!) I know some girls just want new wardrobe, and I do too, but wearing things you have for a longer time, can help you save money!

6. Accessorize. You can make an old outfit look brighter by just styling it with a necklace or a pair of cool earrings!

7. Go throught your closet and see if you have any clothes that you want to sell. You can earn money by selling items you don't need to a thrift shop, and use that money to buy some wardrobe you want!


I hope you liked the tip! Sorry because it's kind of short, but I still hope you'll use it sometimes :)

Lots of love,
Tijana

How To Be A Shy And Classical Girl

How To Be A Shy And Classical Girl

Hello girls, it's Hanna again.

In this tip you will get a few tips on being a shy and classical girl.

✿ Buy timeless ensembles that flatter your figure.

✿ Being shy and conservative is sweet, and its a natural charmer. When you talk, talk soft and delicate as if you were to raise your voice any louder your voice box would explode.

✿ Hygiene is important. Clip and polish those nails. Clear coat or pale pink ONLY. Keep your hair styled, trimmed, and neat. If you have long hair, wear it in a bun, french twist, or the half up-half down look.

✿ Have good taste in clothing: Be modest in clothing and avoid clothing of bad taste. Extremely low necklines, too short skirts, belly-bearing tops and revealing clothing can make a girl look like she does not respect her body and herself.

✿ Speak calmly. This shows politeness. If you talk very loudly, it will seem that you're desperate for attention. Being loud in public isn't just obnoxious, but also inconsiderate to the people around you. Listen to what people have to say and always make eye contact.

✿ Increase your vocabulary, and stay away from slang terms. Never swear or say racist comments.This makes you ugly on the inside and rude.

✿ Take care of more than just your appearance. Parents will appreciate a girl who cares more about her education and her work ethic than her nails.

✿ Always be kind and friendly to the people serving you.

✿ Be responsible. Classy girls leave their surroundings in a condition at least as good as they found them.

✿ Intelligence and maturity are what make you classy, not the clothing. Read classic literature such as Emily and Charlotte Bronte, Charles Dickens, Sylvia Plath, and other great writers. Study art. Research music theory. Update yourself on current world events.

✿ Value your virtues. If you have any good skill or kind of talent, such as drawing, or dancing, singing or playing any musical instrument, do not hide it, work it.

✿ Be polite and do not abbreviate words.

✿ If you must wear heavy foundation, by all means, DON'T wear one that is either lighter or darker than your natural skin tone. It just looks cheap and tacky.

✿ If you slip up, forgive yourself, apologize to anyone who may have been hurt by your not-so-classy behavior, and continue on your way. That's classy!

✿ Try not to wear bright clothing, it defeats the whole purpose.

And I just realised that this is one of the most boring and stupid tips I ever made. I (usually) don't do any of things listed above and if you don't do the either, it's OK. Anyway I hope it helps.

How To Organize Your Wardrobe

How To Organize Your Wardrobe
Hey girls, it's Hanna.

Today I will give you some tips on organizing your wardrobe/closet. This tips are also helpful if you are changing your summer clothes with winter ones.

 👠 Take out all of your clothes.

 👠 Put everything into three piles: donate to charity, keep or throw away.

 👠 Put everything you are throwing away/donating to charity into bags and put them to one side of the room.

 👠 Take all of the clothes you are keeping and sort them into clean and dirty. Wash what is dirty and fold or hang up what is clean!

 👠 Take all of the clothes you are keeping and sort them into sections of your wardrobe. If you have a clothes rail, you may want to colour coordinate everything, (Black with black, pink with pink, Etc.) If you have a wardrobe with sections you could fold T-shirts and put things that won't hang on hangers into the sections. If it's a set hang the shirt and pant on the same hanger.

 👠 Move onto shoes and accessories. Most accessories like belts/scarves will hang up on hangers with other clothing items. Shoes can be put into sections of the wardrobe or on the floor of the wardrobe, or you could put them into a shoe holder if you have one.

More tips:

 👠 Try and make everything fit in your closet you don't want to have a dumping area for clothes.

 👠 You could build a shelf into your wardrobe to store make-up, books, Etc.

 👠 If you have any blankets/bedding then you could also put them into sections of the wardrobe, or leave a basket/box on the wardrobe floor and store them in there.

 👠 You can buy cheap section hangers you hang from the clothes rail in your wardrobe. These are pretty cheap to buy and are great for shoes, accessories or other items such as books or jewellery boxes.

 And that's it! Hope it helps.

How To Stop Smoking

How To Stop Smoking

Hey guys, it's Hanna.

I know that there are a lot of underage girls on polyvore, and I hope that you don't have a problem with smoking. But if you do, and you would like to do something about it, keep reading.

★ Write a list of reasons to stop smoking. REAL reasons, things that worry you. for example, not "I don't want to get cancer" but "I don't want to smell like a big cigarette all day".

★ Make sum of the money you lose to buy cigarettes yearly. write a list of things you could buy with that money instead.

★ Try to stop smoking on monday. it usually is the worst day of the week. if you succeed, you'll feel so proud!

★ After you decided to stop, try to change the brand of your cigarettes. a different taste could help.

★ Don't keep cigarettes at home. if you're afraid you'll need an emergency cigarette, bring them at some friend's. the idea of having to run to your friend's house without advising him will make you desist.

★ Instead of smoking, try eating sweets. everytime you feel the need of smoking, eat a candy.

★ Distract yourself. go out for a walk, go to the cinema, do some sport etc.

★ Convince yourself you CAN'T smoke. repeat it everytime you feel the need. "I don't smoke. I CAN'T smoke. I won't smoke."

And that is all for now. Hope you find it helpful.

How To Dress Like A Hippie

How To Dress Like A Hippie

Hey guys, Hanna here!

Whether you're going to a costume party or changing your style, looking like a hippie isn't really all that hard; after all, one of the tenets of being a hippie is that natural is beautiful – and that your hippie clothes are a chance to express yourself, not enhance yourself. To dress like a hippie, try the following suggestions.

☮ Wear used clothes. Shop at thrift stores, flea markets, and, whenever possible, garage sales. Though you can find gear designed to look “hippie” in other places (like New Age stores and eBay), the whole point of hippie fashion was to stop buying what big corporations were selling in favor of used clothing that was purchased locally.

☮ Choose loose, comfortable, and natural tops. A simple tee will work if you have other accessories to dress it up with, but try to opt for faded, old, or used tees. Hipsters have largely claimed the ironic and retro tees, but that doesn't mean you can't dabble, too.

☮ Try out a vest. A vest is a great option for accessorizing with other tops. In the '60s, at the height of hippiedom, the suede fringe vest was a classic option for man and woman alike. There's a lot that says "hippie," but this screams "hippie."

☮ Carefully choose your kind of jacket. Although the vintage denim jacket is classic hippie, there are other options if you want to spice things up. If it has beads, embroidery, or patterned trim, go for it. Leather, suede, sheepskin, or even fur (although if you're an animal-conscious hippie, you may want to steer clear) are all fair game. An army jacket could also be appropriate in some situations, although some hippies might misinterpret the clothing. You could embroider peaceful slogans on it to make your intentions clear.

☮ Go for denim bell bottoms. Faded, torn, or patched jeans will work if the rest of the outfit is sufficiently hippie, but the holy grail of hippie bottoms is none other than the denim bell bottoms. Men and women both wore these; they're a staple of hippie culture.

☮ Get some denim shorts, especially if they're ripped or torn. Or better yet, rehab your old ones by fraying, ripping, or tearing them (although it's not strictly necessary).

☮ Choose the right kind of sandal or flip-flop. Though hippies made a point of going barefoot, they often wear flat sandals when this isn’t practical.

☮ Try on some hippie boots. Especially in colder weather, or if you want to dress up your outfit, you can try on some boots. Hippie boots are generally suede or leather and could almost pass for booties in a pinch.

☮ Put on select hand-crafted jewellery. Bonus hippie points if you make your own.

☮ Choose your belt. A wide leather belt, peace-symbol belt, or chain belt would work nicely. Anything that says DIY or vintage pretty much goes.

☮ If you don’t mind altering your clothes, add fringes. In fact, add fringes to everything you can get away with. Back in the day, this was done to pants, shirts, vests, jackets, or anything else that could feasibly be fringed.

☮ Grow your hair out. Whether you're male or female, long hair is the norm. This is mainly because you're not going to bother getting it cut! It should be clean (you still bathe!), but it doesn't have to be anything beyond that.

☮ Wear a headband. Wear your headband horizontally over your forehead, not vertically over your hair, and accessorize it with a flower (a daisy is classic).

☮ Style your hair minimally. Leave your hair long, loose, and low-maintenance. Don't put any chemicals in it. The less you style it, the better.

☮ Consider getting dreadlocks if you think you could deal with them. Getting dreadlocks is notoriously difficult, but they're definitely worth it if you think that you can pull them off. They're a labor of love.

☮ Keep the make-up to a minimum. For women, go practically bare. A bit of black kohl outlining your eyes is okay, but not much more than that. Stay away from lipstick and any outrageous, obvious coloring. You're a child of the earth, after all.

And this it it. Hope some of you try it out!

Things to do when it's raining

Things to do when it's raining

Hi guys, Tijana here! I know that fall and winter are really the rainiest seasons and that we have to spend a lot of time at home because of that, so I am going to show you some things to do when it's raining! Enjoy!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


1. Read! Reading with a cup of tea in your hand, on a rainy day is a true fantasy! Don't even try to say I'm wrong, just feel the magic!

2. Watch a movie! Is it comedy, romance or maybe adventure? It doesn't matter! Just lay down, turn on your TV or computer and relax!

3. Cook! Try out some cupcake recipes that are easy and fast, and serve the product to your family! Or you can just eat them all by yourself (lol).

4. Explore YouTube! There are literally thousands of YouTubers with amazing, funny and helpful videos that you will enjoy watching on a rainy day!

5. Chat with your friends! Seriously is there a better thing to do? Repeating: 'I know right, girl!' and gossiping about every kid that goes to your school is the best thing to do on a boring, rainy day.

6. Spend some family time! Forget about how annoying your sister is or how your mom doesn't get you and play some board games with your family, and trust me you will love it!

7. Sleep! Ever complained about how you don't have enough time to sleep and rest? Do that when it's raining! It's proven that it's most likely to fall asleep on a rainy day!

8. Do quizes! Try out BuzzFeed ones, because they have a lot of them, and also very much interesting articles!

9. Sing! Download a karaoke app and imagine you're on a world tour with Beyonce and Jay Z! I recomend app Sing! by Smule.

10. I know you will probably just grab your phone and a jar of Nutella, but still try out some of these advices!

That's it for now! Also I am sorry for not posting for a while, I was very busy with school! Anyway hope you liked the tip! || Question of the tip: What is your favorite drink? ||

Lots of love,
Tijana

How To Do Autumn Makeup

How To Do Autumn Makeup

Hey guys, it's Hanna.

Well it's not winter just yet, so I decided to make another autumn tip for you guys.

01. Prepare your makeup surface. Start by washing your face with facial cleanser, applying toner and then moisturizer. These are very important as they clean and freshen up your face!

02. Apply a small amount of foundation to your face. Make sure to blend down your neck and onto your ears. This way, it won't leave streaks or smudges. Try a brown foundation for the Autumn look!

03. Apply concealer to your under-eyes, the sides of your nose and any spots or blemishes. Be sure to blend in! Try a brown concealer for the Autumn look!

04. Line your eyebrows. When doing this, look carefully to see that the eyebrow pencil matches your eyebrow color. Blend in using an eyeshadow brush, not your fingers!

05. Dab your powder brush into pressed powder and apply to all areas of your face, neck and ears. This sets the makeup and gives it a long lasting finish.

06. Apply black mascara to your upper lashes, not your lower. This makes your eyes stand out more and makes you look more awake and lively.

07. Apply a neutral shade of lip gloss to your lips. This makes you look fun and exciting and ready for a good day, and gives you an Autumn effect! You will also feel happy and gorgeous!

Here are a few more tips and tricks that I like to do in fall time:

- Painting your nails either gold or beige will turn you into an Autumn model!

- Remember to remove your makeup before bed to prevent spots and other gross blemishes!

- Not necessary, but consider choosing an eyeshadow in a fall color. Some fall colors include: red, yellow, orange, and brown.

- I personally like using brown mascara in fall time, because I feel like it gives more autumn look.

- And lastly I use darker shades of lipstick. Dark red, brown-ish, darker shade of purple, nothing too bright or pink.

Hope this helps you guys!

xoxo

How To Make A Flower Crown

How To Make A Flower Crown
Hey guys, it's Hanna.

Floral crowns are super easy to make and super cute to look at. Here is how to make this fall fashion trend.

✿ Pick or buy fresh or fake flowers. The beauty of making a flower crown is that you can use any type of flower you like. Stay true to the season by picking bunches of wildflowers from the side of the road, or go to a flower shop and choose gorgeous hothouse stems. To make this simple wired crown you can pick enough flowers to circle your entire head or just the sides and front.

✿ Cut the stems to 2 inches. All the stems should be the same length, so that the finished crown will look neat with no stem ends visible.

✿ Create the wire base. You'll need a few feet of floral wire, which you can find at any craft store. Choose either green or brown, depending on your taste. To create the base, simply measure the circumference of your head with a measuring tape, then cut a length of wire twice as long. Loop it twice, then rest it on your head. Adjust as needed, and secure the wire loop with a piece of florists' tape that matches your wire.

✿ Arrange your flowers in a pattern. Lay out the wire base and place your flowers around the wire in the arrangement that you like best. You can alternate different shapes and sizes, or consider placing the largest flowers in front and tapering the smaller flowers toward the back of the crown.

✿ Attach the first flower to the taped part of the wire. Centering your first flower over the part where the wire base is taped is a convenient way to hid the seam. Attach the flower by aligning the stem with the wire base, then looping a piece of florist tape around to secure it. Make sure the flower is firmly in place before continuing.

✿ Lay the second flower next to the first one. Arrange it so that the stem of the second flower slightly overlaps the first flower, and the blooms are seated right next to each other. Don't leave a gap between the two blooms, or your crown won't look as full.

✿ Continue attaching flowers. Keep securing flowers to your crown in this same manner, working your way around the circle. Check to make sure the blooms rest against each other, and ensure there are no gaps along the way. Keep going until you've used up all of the flowers you laid out in the beginning.

✿ Try on your crown. If you see any gaps or places where you want it to look more full, gently part the flowers, insert another one and tape it in place. Tie on a long ribbon in the back for a pretty effect.

And that's it. Hope you girls try it out.

How To Enjoy The Advantages Of Autumn

How To Enjoy The Advantages Of Autumn

Hey girls, Hanna here.

Autumn is here and it is one of my favourite seasons. Here are a few advantages of fall. Hope you enjoy.

✌ Spend time with your family. With this weather you don't have to go out that much and you can make some family time. Have a game night instead of watching at the TV or talk with your family about your family members projects.

✌ Get out and photograph everything. At this this time of the year the light is perfect to make great pictures of the trees, especially since their leaves are coloring beautifully. Go out to your local park ans start photographing!

✌ Get some time for yourself. Now is the excellent time to read or watch any of your books and movies you couldn't watch during the summer. Get yourself a cosy place at the fire with a hot coco.

✌ Get yourself shopping. This is the perfect time for shoppers to get warm winter cloths for yourself and/or your family usually at this time of the year you have a lot more choice and it's cheaper. Get yourself a new winter coat and of course don't forget to buy that matching outfit and shoes.

✌ Remember that time when you complained so much about the heat during the summer? The temperature during Autumn is just perfect. So you can easily go out and take a walk in the park if the sun is shining. Just don't forget to bring your umbrella in case it starts to rain.

✌ If you have a dip, don't think too much about everything you hate during autumn, but be happy and think about the fun moments you can have. Or you can read this article to remind yourself about it again.

✌ A rainy day walk in Autumn can be very enjoyable! Just dress warmly, and wear a raincoat and carry an umbrella. Drinking something hot (like hot cider, tea, or hot chocolate,) is the perfect way to warm up when you go back in!

What is your favourite advantage of fall season?

Winter outfit ideas + some style tips

Winter outfit ideas + some style tips

Hi guys, Tijana here! Your reaction to 'Date outfit ideas' tip was really good, so I decided to make another one! Enjoy! And remember to join our new taglist, by just liking that set!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. CASUAL
For the first outfit I went with a simple, everyday style. A pair of cute, pink Uggs completes the whole 'comfy and casual' idea. This is a perfect outfit for a long day at school, and it takes just a few minutes to style!

Sweater ~ pinkqueen.com
Jeans ~ newlook.com
Boots ~ stylebop.com

TIP: Use sweaters with different prints to give your style a nice, yet a comfortable look. I recommend getting some winter themed sweaters (with snowflake, reindeer, lollipop print) just to give your outfit a cute, warm touch.

2. FANCY
For the second outfit I picked something that's more for a special occasion. It's also very adorable, and it's super cool if you're going on a sweet winter date. I also think that curled hair goes perfect with the whole look, and that it really looks amazing under a beanie.

Dress ~ H&M
Beanie ~ houseoffraser.co.uk
Tights ~ francescas.com
Boots ~ yesstyle.com

TIP: Use skater dresses as a cool combo with beanies. It looks stylish, but it still goes very well for a special event. Skater dresses go well with different boots, like wedge or platform boots.

3. CHIC
For the third outfit I used things that scream: COOL! Along with our tip 'How To Be Cool At School' this is just the best look ever! The necklace is very small and it goes pretty nice with the orange details on the boots.

Shirt ~ johnlewis.com
Jeans ~ pieces.com
Boots ~ aeropostale.com (Bethany Mota's collection)
Necklace ~ manictrout.com

TIP: Use different accessories to make the details on some items pop out. Like I did with the details on the boots and the necklace. That gives a cool and unique look to a regular combination.

That's it guys! I know it's not winter yet, but the weather looks like that, for sure! Go and like the 'Taglist' set to join our new, winter taglist!

how to jazz up a plain ponytail

how to jazz up a plain ponytail

Hey guys it's Charlie!
So basically this is just telling you a few random ways to 'jazz up' or make a ponytail look a bit cuter. They are all really simple. So here they are...

How to: Jazz up a plain ponytail

Start by brushing out your hair and then take for small sections of hair from equal places on the top of your head. Split each section into three and braid it. After you have done this to all four sections then secure your hair into a ponytail. The ponytail can be low or high but I personally think that it looks best when it’s not super high. I’ve seen this on a girl at dancing and it seems to hold really well and I think it looks awesome.
Brush out your hair and secure it in a ponytail. It can be high or low. Take a small section of the hair from the back of the ponytail and wrap it around the hair tie. When you run out of hair or the hair tie is completely covered then secure the hair in place by using a bobby pin and pinning it into the back of the ponytail and it won’t be seen. This is super cute and it honestly takes 20 seconds if not less and it just adds a little bit extra.
Brush your hair and put it in a high ponytail. Braid the ponytail. It isn’t really a ponytail but it still has the original structure of one and I think this looks really cute and is a bit more formal then a normal ponytail.

So that's it. I hope you enjoyed this and it helps somebody!
Charlie


How To Be Cool At School

How To Be Cool At School

Hey guys, it's Hanna here!

Pretty much everybody want to be cool at school and in this tip I will give you a few tips on how to do that.

1. Making A Good Impression

ツ Get clean. One of the easiest things you can do for your popularity status is stay fresh and smelling good. Kids in school tend to judge a book by its cover, and being smelly is a one-way ticket to the reject table. Take showers regularly, brush your teeth, floss, and use deodorant. You'll look more attractive, whether you're a guy or a girl, too.

ツ Style your hair. In addition to not being clean, you also won't attract a lot of friends if you looked like you just rolled out of bed, regardless of what age you are. Take a few minutes in the morning to style your hair however you think it looks best. A little bit of effort goes a long way, even if it's just a bit of gel or a couple rounds with a flat iron or blow dryer.

ツ Pay attention to your clothes. Every school is different, and there is not one individual look that ensures you'll be cool. At some schools its the rebels who are "cool," at others it's the "jocks." The only thing you can really do is pay attention to your clothes and make sure you walk out the door with a look you know you like.

2. Making Lots of Friends

ツ Join a handful of organizations. Being cool isn't just about being popular, it's about being known. And what's the easiest way to get your name and your face recognized? By joining groups at school, of course. Try to join a few that don't overlap – that way you'll meet the most people and have a wide variety of interests.

ツ Observe. Try to identify who's where on the "social ladder." It's not that big of a deal (being cool is about being liked, which is different than being popular), but it will help you know how to identify with people. It's a good idea to be friends with people on all rungs of the ladder – you never know where you'll end up.

ツ Be friendly with everyone. Again, being cool doesn't necessarily mean you're popular. There are plenty of "popular" kids that are mean and not actually liked. Being one of them won't get you anywhere. Instead, aim to be popular and cool by having people legitimately like you. To do that, just be friendly and nice to everyone you meet.

ツ Don't try so hard. Just about every adult will tell you that when you grow up, you'll realize that being cool doesn't really matter and if they would've known that being cool is about not trying, they wouldn't have stressed so much. Though it's easier said than done, try to relax a little. If you're trying too hard, it's a turnoff and people won't think you're confident and that you don't like yourself.

ツ Avoid being a bully or the victim. Don't be mean to other people in your school just to make yourself seem cooler. In fact, people generally hate bullies, they're just too scared to admit it to their faces.[2] In time, the bullies lose their power and then they're left with nothing. It may be tempting now, but in the long run it will only do you harm.

3. Being Friendly, Confident And Likable

ツ Be open-minded. Remember that part above about how being cool is about being liked by lots of different people? Well, to get all these different types of people liking you, you've got to like them. Open your mind and try to see that not only the coolest kids have value – that everyone does. You'll come off as a friendly, more likable, happier person – and that's the type of person most of us want to be around.

ツ Respect people. Being respectful to others even if they aren't your friends shows that you don't discriminate people based on anything because they are not your friends. You'll develop a positive reputation of always being kind and considerate and being friends with everyone because they can rely on you and that you won't judge them. That definitely sounds pretty cool.

ツ Keep it positive. If you want to be a magnet for people, to get all of them liking you, stay positive. Keep your chin up, be willing to laugh at yourself, and spread your positivity and awesomeness. Other people will end up flocking to your side so it rubs off on them.

ツ Stay true to you. Though the phrase "be yourself" is pretty cliche, it doesn't mean that it's not valuable advice. In fact, it should be pretty clear between "don't try too hard" and "stick to your own sense of style" that being yourself is where it's at. Being yourself means you're comfortable with yourself and you're more confident. When you try to be someone else, you're just an imitation, and imitations are definitely not cool.

And that's it. Hope it helps!
