C2C: A OOTD and the First Snow in Seoul

Hello

You probably don't know that I am currently in Seoul in a study abroad program. Anyways, today was the first day of snow in the city and for me its always a love/hate relationship thing. I slipped and fell, and hurt my toe. I did get beautiful pictures from the scenery and decided I wanted to share.

I also wanted to show my outfit of the day since I appear in one of the pictures.

What I am wearing:
- Coat: Zara Basics
- Beige Sweater: Forever 21 (bought it almost two years ago in a sale though)
- Light blue (T-shirt?): Street sale in Seoul
- Black Shirt: Zara Basics
- Plain black leggings with skirt attached: Street sale
- Boots: Ugg
- Necklace: Tous


I opted for a very natural barely there makeup look



How was the weather in your city today?

C2C: 3 Highlighters (Review)

Hello!

A definite must-have for me during the winter are my face highlighters. It makes me glow like a twilight vampire. For the winter time everything becomes really dull so a little bit of shimmer can really spice up your face.


I love to use highlighter everywhere (not at the same time though!) but I really enjoy using it on my inner corners -that's a whole different review- on my high cheek bones and as eyeshadow when I want a pop to my eyes. I also enjoy using it on my cupids bow in my mouth.

The three highlighters that I will be showing today are one of my favorite highlighters I have tried. These are the three that I currently own and have in Korea, but I do not think I need more either.

MAC Mineralize Skin Finish- Soft and Gentle


 This gorgeous Skinfinish from MAC is one of my favorite highlighters of all time. It is very shimmery and can even have a glittery look to it if you apply too much. However, the right amount of this product will make your skin look like its glowing from beneath. I have used this as an eyeshadow, on my cupids bow, on the arch of my brows and of course on my cheek bones. It is a must-have for me and my dull winter skin.


Nar Orgasm Highlighter

This is a love hate relationship for me since I find it to be very pinkish. I love mixing this with my foundation to give it a bit of a shimmer.

Countdown to Christmas: How to keep warm and fashionable in Winter

Heyoo:)

I am starting this new Countdown to Christmas in which every single day there is going to  be a post that can be related to fashion, beauty, or my randomness. Christmas is definitely my favorite time of year since it is all lights, carols, family, and friends. So in this segment you will find OOTDs, holiday tutorials, vlogs, holiday giveaway ideas and so much more. I am sooo excited to be counting down to Christmas stay tune for a lot of surprises as well!!!!!!

Days to Christmas: 22

When trying to be warm for the winter a lot of us (ahem me) can forget how to include being fashionable. Instead we kind of lean towards being more cozy and comfortable. What most of us do not know is that we can be all cozy without risking not being fashionable. I definitely like having both on my side.


Tip #1:

A Pop of color:


I love wearing all black outfits with a pop of color. I like black because it is not overpowering with layering and it also doesn't make me look like a grizzly bear just walking around the city of Seoul.

For the pop of color choose a scarf with a really cool pattern. Check out one of my favorite fashion icons (Blake Lively) rocking this tip

If you are not the scarf type of girl choose a handbag or purse that will stand out. I also love wearing different colored shoes with my all black outfit.

Tip # 2

Bulky it up on different sections


Its winter time and I love my uggs. That doesn't mean you will see me also wearing baggy sweatpants, uggs, and a slouchy sweater. In the contrary when using bulky pieces such as uggs I like to wear pixie pants or warm cozy legging to even out the look.

In this photo I am wearing a skirt, pantyhose and my uggs making the look more fashionable and girly. Its a little bit colder in Seoul now than when this picture was taken. But if I had to take a picture today I would wear my Uniqlo Heattech leggings beneath it.

So these are my tips for today stay tuned for this Countdown to Christmas series and for A LOT OF SURPRISES!!!
