3 Summer Hairstyles


With summer coming on, I can only think of pulling my hair up together and making a bun out of it. Easy. Period. However, something fancy would do too, as long as its simple and in this process accessories go a long way and so does simple hairstyles.



 Twister

-o- Section the hair at the back of your head into 8
-o- Starting from the right-most section start twisting it into a bun and pin it up.
-o- Take the next section and twist then wrap it around the first.
-o- Similarly take the section close to the middle partition and twist into a bun. And then take the section next to it and wrap it around.
-o- Don't worry about the extra loose pieces, as they will actually add up to the look.
-o- Accessorize if you like or let it be.


The Sidekick

-o- Take the entire hair to one side
-o- Twist it and form into a bun
-o- Secure it tightly
-o- Accessorize.


Braided
-o- Take the entire hair to one-side.
-o- Make a french braid
-o- Tighten with a rubber-band
-o- Accessorize.

Wear to Work - Orange

If you remember one of my earlier posts, I claimed orange to be a big color this season. But how could it be if I didnt keep my own word, and never used it. So here is another addition to my Wear to Work series where am gonna suggest wearing 'Orange ' to work! yes, you read this right.

What if I told you that you can wear orange eye shadows to work. And I am not talking only about those who have the privilege to be funky at work, but those who have dress codes to follow. Yes, its doable. And here we also, have to keep in mind that we are gonna have very limited time to do this. Rush hour guys. So, lets find out how:




Once you are done with your foundation, concealer, powder routine start with your bronzer at the hollow of your cheek. Keep blending in circular motion on both sides till you have blended it all evenly.


Apply a shimmery light color like silver or another neutral subtle color that compliments you.


Apply the orange now, starting at the outer corner of your eyes. Do not be too generous with the color, as we want to keep it subtle. Also, be careful about choosing the orange, and pick up the one that goes with your skin tone.


Similarly apply it on the lower lid


Apply mascara on both upper and lower lids


Apply lipstick. I used a neutral, brownish shade that compliments my skin tone.


Products that I used

Bronzer - No7 Perfectly Bronze
Eye Shadow - Urban decay electric palette (Revolt and Slowburn)
Mascara - Covergirl Lashblast fusion
Lipstick - L'oreal 180 Silky Java
White shirt - MNG See here
Pair it with a grey trouser and black jacket (coming soon)

Lip Tar - So Vivid!

Lip Tar Trio Set Vivid in Nylon | Harlot | Trollop

I have started liking bright vivid lip colors. It not only compensates for the other make up components on our face, but also, makes out pictures look better. Talking of brighter hues, I have observed, that if the bright colors do not have enough pigment, it might fall flat due to the underlying skin color showing through it. However, in case of Lip Tar I noticed that the pigment is so strong that just a drop is more than sufficient to cover your entire lips. Its extremely long lasting an effective. There is just one drawback according to me, and that is its dry. One needs to support them with a nourishing lip balm for more comfortable lips. But I think that's worth it. And guess what? Its vegan too!!

Tory Burch - Happy Smell

This perfume reminds me a lot like my favorite perfume for a very longtime. Clinique Happy. I bought this 0.2oz roller bottle from Sephora today and the moment I sniffed it, I knew that I wanted this. A very happy floral Peony/ Tuberose yet citrus kind of fragrance. The instance I applied it I felt so lively that I decided to get a bottle for Spring.

I'm My Own Muse

I dont know if I can call myself an artist, but I do have ideas. Ideas that I want to bring to life. However, these ideas are always around me. I must be about 4 years old, when I used to borrow (read take away) my mom's lipsticks, paint my little lips, wear her clothes and the idea was always to see myself in these looks. As I kept growing up, the ways to do that changed, although, even today I borrow her lipsticks and put it on. But I have always continued  to be my muse. The biggest advantage of being one's own muse is just not being self-involved (in a positive way) but to constantly motivate oneself, and show a never-dying confidence in oneself. And also, the fact that One always has the free-will to do what one likes. I am my own Muse, and I amuse myself with that.

I have decided to call my blog I'm my own muse. Its more appropriate and its what I want it to be called. Tell me what you think.



White Top - Old top from Zara
Denims - Mango
Ring - Forever 21
Watch - DKNY

Dear Life!

Dear Life!

Thanks for being with me. I like the way you write your own scripts and keep yourself so interesting. We are all learning. We all want to be like you. We call you unfair, difficult and all that, but then as you and I know, that you are the one we love the most. We are ever-fascinated with you so.

Some day, I hope, and I really hope that I sit together with you and discuss how you do it, over a cup of coffee. Do you think that you would have time? After all you are a busy person. So many people, with lives sketched so differently. Tough job, but you do it so well. 

Meet me some day. Please.

Your's Truly
