Update Your Favorites for Valentine's Day

Did you get asked on a last minute V-day date? Before you go out and buy a whole new outfit take a look at your favorite items in your closet first. Here are some fun, flirty, and feminine ways you can update your favorite essentials into a charming Valentine's Day ensembles. 

Update: Your Favorite Little Black Dress

Start with your favorite LBD, whether its fitted, flowy, short, or long. Add shiny red lipgloss, classic red pointy-toe pumps, and a gold, sequined clutch and you have yourelf a simple yet glam Valentine's Day outfit perfect for a night out.

Update: A Casual Denim Shirt or Jacket 

Get this feminine, casual look by starting off with your most lived in and loved denim shirt or jacket. Layer under this shirt or jacket a fun light pink graphic tank. Throw on your fave dark wash or black skinny jeans and a girly pair of sky-high wedges. I love these ones because the color and bow detail are perfect for Valentine's day. To top off your flirty casual look put some volumizing mascara on your upper lashes only. 

Update: An Edgy Leather Jacket

Take your favorite faux leather coat and a pair of skinny jeans (red ones would look awesome). Accessorize this basic combo with a fun scarf, high-heeled ankle booties, and dark red nail polish (the name of the one shown is Valentine!). This pairing will give you a romantic, edgy outfit.

BOO-tiful Celebrity Inspired Halloween Costumes

It's one of my favorite months of the year, October! The reason why I love October so much is because Halloween happens to be my favorite holiday ever. I love the spooky decorations, horror movies, and most of all the fun costumes! Whether you go trick-or-treating with your friends, attend Halloween parties, or are going to an event at school that you need a costume for, the following celebrity looks should provide you with some inspiration for Halloween.

Poison Ivy- I absolutely love Kim Kardashian's Poison Ivy costume. The reason I love it its because it's creative and super fun! You could very easily DIY your own Poison Ivy costume. All you'd need is a masquerade mask, a green dress (you could probably find one at a thrift store), fake plants/ leaves, and a glue gun! Just hot glue the leaves to the dress and mask and accessorize with gold jewelry and a red wig. So cute!

Cleopatra- Cleopatra is a Halloween classic. Not only is it super glam it is also very easy to recreate. All you really need is a white drapey dress. You could even make one out of cheap cotton fabric or a sheet! Then just apply some shimmery gold eyeshadow and wing out your liner. Pile on gold jewelry, a sparkly headband, and a belt and you're good to go!

Batman / Peacock- I love Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greenes' costumes. I especially love Kellan's. Here's a perfect costume for the boys. All you need is a black t-shirt with the batman logo on it, black jeans, the batman mask, and a cape. All of these things are very easy to find or make yourself. Ashley's costume is a bit more intricate but not impossible to recreate. Just find a black corset, a black tutu, and some peacock feathers. Then you could just hot glue the feathers onto the corset. So chic.

Minnie Mouse- Here's a picture of Lauren Conrad rocking a super cute Minnie Mouse Halloween costume. The awesome thing about this costume is that you can probably find all of the pieces in your wardrobe. All you really need is a polka dot dress or separates, white ankle socks, and black heels. Most importantly don't forget the mouse ears! You can probably find a pair of those at any costume shop.

Halloween costumes can be a bit pricey but with a bit of creativity you can create a unique costume that all your friends will be jealous of. Most of all have a fun and safe Halloween, boo-tiful!
