Skater

I'm trying out a new style I've always liked: Skater. I know this ain't extremely skater but it was a school day. Materials:

Blue Tiger Shirt (slightly see-through, got it from Wal-Mart)
Jeans (I think their from American Eagle or old Navy)
Black High tops (J.C. Penny)
My Turquoise ring
A copper chain necklace I made from an old earring
Black and white checkered wristband (Hot Topic (Not seen, my hand was in my pocket))

Now, wear that and let your hair dry naturally. You can have some black eyeliner and mascara but I, per usual, didn't wear any make-up.

Scene: Hair and Make-Up

I may seem like a poser but I tried my best, I only did this for around three days so I wasn't that great at it. Anyways, er, materials:

  • Black Eyeshow
  • Black Eyeliner
  • Pink Sparkly Coral Lipstick
  • Comb
  • Hair Straightener
Now, straighten your hair and then tease it where the roots are of the top layer, mine went a little curled at this stage. Also, side sweep your bangs, it makes it look more scene. Then I tried to substitute black eyeshadow for black eyeliner but then when I wiped it off it looked like a hot mess so you can do then then put actual eyeliner on and then you put some lipstick on and then it should be complete, my way.

Chinese Girl

Alright! I know this is late, but I've bombarded with homework, a lot of reading. Anyways, this was an old picture (you can tell by the long hair) but this is how I looked like a Chinese waitress or something when I was being weird and cosplaying with my BFF. Materials:

  1. Chinese Dress (I got mine at a car show that was a dress booth. Costed $50.00 for the dress which I was the only one who fit in it and it is really from China. The material is green with floral patterns on it and a slit on the left side)
  2. Ponytail Holder/Rubber Band
  3. Duct Tape Flower
Alright, put on your dress (doesn't have to be like mine. You can sew one yourself or find a replica in a store or online. Maybe you could even travel to China and buy one there) Then you put your hair in a ponytail, then take the duct tape flower you made from duct tape and a straw (you can find tutorials online/on youtube, my friend made these) and you don't have to make the flower be black, that's the only duct tape I had. You can even put on some make-up (I didn't) but you can have red lipstick with some purple eyeshadow (Lavender colored and lighty dusted on, so it looks somewhat natural) and then you take some black eyeliner (I would imagine liquid eyeliner would work best but I've only used pencil but my older sister likes liquid eyeliner) and then you make a small 'flick' or 'cat tail' or whatever you call it.

Fashion: Soc and Greaser Style Combined

Today I got my hair done and I felt like a Greaser/Soc from The Outsiders because I now look like Cherry Valance...Anyways, if you can't chose between a Greaser or Soc style, then look no more because I managed to combine the two!

  • Light blue polo shirt with the three buttons undone
  • Denim Mini Skirt
  • White Vans (I think that is what they are called, they kinda reminded me of Cherry's sneakers from the movie so I wore them)
  • my turquoise ring
  • My yellow beaded 'Minato' bracelet
  • my dad's middle school necklace
  • black tank top
You obviously know how to put this on...Also, for the shoes don't wear any socks because it would look weird, also, tie the laces then tuck them on the inside or else it'll also look pretty weird...



80's Style Punk

Warning, this isn't historically accurate! I was just wearing neons with black and it was my second choice for the Breathe Carolina Concert and I liked the other one but this could be better with different combinations. Anyways, here is the outfit pieces:

Black Beanie/Baret from Hot Topic
Black Halter Top from Old Navy
Black Skater Skirt from J.C. Penny (I think)
Green-Yellow Neon Ripped Nylons from Hot Topic
Green-Yellow Neon Fishnet Glovettes from Hot Topic
Black High Tops from J.C. Penny (I think)

Now, you just wear that and you should be good to go, the beanieberet is styled in the same way in the other Punk Breathe Carolina thing I already did :)

Basic Native American

I titled this Basic Native American because I have no idea what to call it but I do look like a Native American so I just decided to title it that...anyways, this is a make-up tutorial with the jewelry part thrown in there with how my hair turned out like it did. Anyways, here are the materials:

Black eyeliner
Black mascara
Blue and Pink Native American Choker Necklace (Got it from Trees of Mystery, located at a national park (I think it was redwoods) in Northern California)
Comb

Now, you apply the black eyeliner to your top lid in a thinnish line, put mascara on your top and bottom lashes, then you tie the choker on your neck (not too tight or anything) and then you can start on the hair.

Take a shower and put your hair up with a clip. Then, once you get dressed, you can comb it out straight and comb your bangs straight and make sure your bangs are plastered there or they'll go all curly (this is based on my naturally curly hair but if you have naturally straight hair then ignore this) and I just let it air dry. If you have a different hair type then you can curl your hair in loose curls all around your head to make it close to mine.

Rock N Roll Hair and Make-Up

Alright, another rock thing to go with the style one! Yay, okay, anyways, in the reference picture I am not wearing any make-up but I will still tell you how to apply the make-up so you aren't confused or anything. Materials, per usual:

  • Bandana (Mine was red but you can make it any color you want)
  • Black Eyeliner
  • Black Mascara
  • Black Nail Polish
  • Hair Curler or Straightener

Alright, first you wanna straighten or curl your hair, this is obviously optional but my curls are natural in this but it looks like Stacee Jaxx (Rock of Ages) or Axl Rose (Guns N Roses) if you straighten it. Now, you apply black eyeliner like normal on your top lid, however you do it. Next is apply the mascara to your upper and lower lashes to make it pop. You fold the bandana as thick or thin as you want it (thicker if you are going for a Stacee Jaxx look like I did) and you tie it around your head like the Original Karate Kid kind of or like a Ninja Turtle (my stepdad called me both, as a joke) and then you pull your bangs out (if you don't have bangs then a strand that looks like bangs or something, it looks better this way, I've tested it) and then you finally paint your nails back and you are done!
