Ootd

Today's outfit of the day I decided to go all black because it's finals week and it's been all rainy so I fit in with weather and final week vibe. My shirt is from Tillys and I just got it the day before from my aunt and I'm in love with the pattern on the front! It is also perfect to wear leggings with because it is long in the back. So obviously I'm wearing leggings and they are from Pink. My scarf is just a regular scarf made into a infinity scarf simply by tying the ends together and my head band is from American eagle. The combat boots are from Shiek shoes and if you are even wondering my socks are from old navy not like it matters but they were so comfy! I have my hair in a knot bun kept up by my cream and gold button knot hair ties. I hope everyone is super excited for Christmas because I know I am! 

Weddington Way New Years Eve Wedding

  

     Ive had an amazing opportunity to participate in this style challenge for a New Year's Eve Wedding! I don't know about you but when I think about New Years Eve I think about Black, Gold ,and GLITTER  so for this wedding that is the colors I choose to go with. I went with the cream long sleeve lace dress because it fits the season and theme just right, it could be used for an outside wedding or an inside wedding. A long sleeve dress looks good on all body figures and chest sizes so everyone can feel comfortable and modest. So now we are gonna work are way

from the top to the bottom in all the fun outfit details. For the hair, of course we have to follow the rules
                                          Strapless= all hair down,
                                       V-Neck=half up half down,
                                              Halter=up do, and a
                                        One strap=side pony/braid
but since the dress we choose has sleeves you can have the choice of an up do or all hair down. I choose the relaxed all down beach wave because it looks great with long or short hair. I believe the most important thing when planning bridesmaids outfits is that you have to find something that will look great on everyone body type and also what hairstyle will look good with every length and beach waves is one of those unique styles. Even a side twist for the bangs or a braid to pull hair out of the face is perfect. We don't want the bridesmaids hair to be overdone and extraordinary because we don't want it to enter fear with the bride to be.


Usually the bride goes with a more natural look and nothing to out of the world with the eyes so I say its a perfect opportunity for the bridesmaids. I choose to tie in the colors of the weddings into the eye makeup by not going over board. With the cream color of the dress a smoky eye with a shimmery gold will look great.
Also back to making sure everything looks good on everyone this eye makeup looks good with every eye color. We are going for a natural face makeup with a bold eye. A soft nude lip will also look fabulous! Everyone knows that before a wedding you have to get your nails done so for the nails I choose something a little different. Instead of doing the traditional french tip I
choose a nude polish with a gold tip                                         to match the eyes and the colors of the wedding.
               

Now lets get down to what every girl cares the most
about, SHOES! I picked out a gold glittery ankle boot  stiletto which is way out of the box but it looks great!! I've learned that in fashion sometimes you have to get two things you would not ever put together and I just put them together most of the time it works in a weird way! It adds a touch of fabulous and screams New Year's Eve! It can also be worn with a ton of other outfits and is just a fun shoe! Now for the little details that make a world of a difference. The jewelry I choose are all from forever 21 and is a great place to get jewelry for cheap when you are on a wedding budget. I chose simple teardrop rhinestone stud earrings. For the necklace you can go either way, a statement necklace close to the neck or one that hangs a little. You don't want one that hangs really low. I picked a tight pearl  and gold statement necklace and a pearl and diamond necklace with a gold chain. Both tie into the wedding trend I am in love with which is the broach bouquet. I wouldn't necessarily have the bride have one, unless incorporated with flowers but for the bridesmaids I love the idea!! They are so fun and different and come in so many different ways. A New Year's Eve wedding would be so fun and there is a millions ways you could plan it. This is my bridesmaid fashion breakdown and I've had a blast doing it! I'm thankful for the opportunity that Weddington Way gave me, so a huge shout out to them and if you have a wedding coming up go check them out! A special thanks to Alex for emailing me in the first place and picking me to participate in this amazing December style challenge!

Start of Something New...

 I am so excited to say that I have been working on new things and am so excited to share them with you! I have been working on designing and up cycling a lot of new clothing and wanted to start out with something simple that is way cute and super fun! I am obsessed with these and I am so excited I have my very own collection of them now. I am talking about the knot hair ties and boot lace. Almost every time I wear my combat boots I wear boot lace with them. People ask me all the time where do I get them and I say that I got my first pair from my mother who bought them for me at a boutique a long time ago but now I make my own! I also love the knot hair ties and have worn them in my blog post before so now I decided to make my own collection of them to bring a little bit of my style into yours. Christmas is right around the corner and these are great for stocking stuffers or just great gifts for friends. There is so many ways you can wear them and I will be putting up a bunch of outfits so you can see how I wear mine. They can come in all different sizes for the boot lace Kids for $8.00 and Adult sizes Small, Medium, Large for $10.00 they also come in four different colors Grey, Navy Blue, White, and a Peach/Cream. If you order them and take a picture of the outfit you wore them with I will be putting them up in a highlight blog post. I am so excited and can't wait to see how you style them and all the cute hairstyles with the cute hair ties! To order email me at brookharris0@gmail.com!!

My mans sweater

Okay so we all know that every girl loves to wear their boyfriends sweater to bad I don't have a boyfriend so I have to shop in the boy section at buffalo exchange and don't care how many people stare when I say I'm not buying this for my boyfriend I'm being this for myself. No matter if your boyfriend gave the sweater to you or you bought it yourself boys sweaters make the perfect outfit for winter! This sweater I am wearing here as I said I bought from Buffalo Exchange and it is originally from H&M which is the perfect place to buy a boy sweater for girl use. The men's sweaters from H&M are not to baggy and do not have big baggy sleeves, watch out for baggy sleeves because that is what you do not want when wearing a mans sweater on a girls body. A men's sweater is best worn with leggings or high top socks not with jeans so make sure it is long enough to cover up everything. Wearing it with leggings or high top socks gives a lay back cozy feel while looking fabulous!!! Try to get fun patterns and different materials so people know it is not a lades sweater. Mix up colors with the sweater and the leggings, make your twist on the outfit unique. I have also been in love with the flash tattoos so instead of wearing any jewelry I used the flash tattoos in odd places to be different. I loved the shoulder cap one so I made that side of my sweater hang off my shoulder to show it off. You can get the flash tattoos from online but Aeropostale has a rocking deal for a packet of them for only four dollars! It was the perfect outfit for a perfect weekend in Flagstaff with my best friends! So the Sweater is from H&M, the leggings are from Victoria Secret Pink, the boots are Shiekh Shoes, the purse is from Target, the lace socks are at any holiday boutique, and I got the flash tattoos from Aeropostale.

Being caught wearing the same outfit will never happen again!

   The college life has been seriously so crazy and I haven't been able to post in a while, and I'm working on some really fun projects! Ive learned so far from college is that you make the best out of what you got and not only is that very relevant in life it also is in fashion. When your in college your poor simple as that. You have to think out of the box for new outfits because you can't just go buy a new one. The black skirt I am wearing is actually shorts. I was in need of a black skirts and I loved the lace trim on these shorts so i decided that i would safety pin the bottom layer up into the shorts so that the lace trim that went all the way around would just show making it appear that I am wearing a little black lace skirt. Personally I could not wear a skirt this short (without having a very embarrassing moment) unless I had shorts underneath so it was a win win situation! That just a little fashion tip secret I have under my belt that I had to share with you. I alter my outfits all the time in order to get a new look each time without repeating the same outfit again and again cause who wants to be caught doing that? Every look is a new look as long as you let it be, that's my key phrase every time I get dressed in the morning. Be creative and think outside of the box! For some reason I'm in love with tying a knot in my tank tops lately so of course that what I did here, I personally think it gives your outfit a little attitude. When I was doing my hair for this outfits I had a bohemian look in mind so I incorporated a lot of brains, I also had braid in the back of my head going down into my side braid. Finally the most exciting part to me in this outfit was my jean vest that was up cycled by yours truly! I have a tutorial on how I made it coming soon if you guys are interested. So lets get down to business the tank top is from Old Navy, the skirt is from Shasa, and the jean vest is from the Goodwill and up cycled by me, I am also wearing a penny bracelet from Designer Blvd, and a key bracelet from Forever 21.

Crazy for pink Victoria Secret contest!

If you don't know already Pink by Victoria Secret is having a crazy for pink contest to win gift cards to Victoria Secret and my sister and I thought we would join in, so we had a little fun with it! there is an amazing place just down the road from my house that i love to take pictures at. It is a old barn with a big nice field. It was just one of those sporadic moments where we both said "hey lets go" so we got our smiles on, threw on some Victoria secret clothes, did a little makeup and hair and went down to the barn! Oh yeah we also had to somehow get are brother willing enough to take pictures of us, that was a little challenging. It was just once again another random photo shoot we do in the Harris household but like all the photo shoots we do it was a blast! It's all about having fun, letting loose and trying new things! We also thought it would be pretty awesome to say we had been Victoria Secret Angles!!!

                          

RED! RED! RED!

Red is the color of energy, passion and action. A red outfit grabs attention and needs to be flaunted! If you watched my video I talked about the shirt I am wearing and how excited I was to find a perfect outfit for it, so here it is my perfect outfit I found for it! I love wearing red and cream together because it is the perfect balance of a loud color with a soft one. Your outfit speaks louder than words and defines who you are. A put together outfit lets others know that you yourself are put together and makes it easier for others to approach you. A lazy slap together outfit tells others you are unorganized and makes people think you don't care. Always add your own touch to every outfit to make it scream you! Comment to let me know if you have a questions or things you will like to see! The red skirt is from Hollister Co., cream peal shirt is from Buffalo Exchange, and the shoes are from Not Rated
