Outfit Post: Skater Stripes and Crop Top with a flash of red!

Hi lovelies,

As I put this post up, I have a confession to make: I am a crop top addict. I have been living in them nonstop for the last few weeks. I think I have also accumulated a trillion of them. And my husband isn’t of any help either when it comes to this addiction. He himself at several occasions came home with a handful of them for me to try and keep. I know come winter time I will have to remedy this addiction. My second addiction also came out of nowhere. I hated stripes! yes I said it I hated stripes. I would always wonder who wants to buy these but this year as the stripes hit everywhere, I have become a big fan of them especially the typical black and white one! so simple yet there is so much you can do to upgrade it. Now lets take the skirt for this example! I first saw this h&m skirt on the website and I awaited its arrival eagerly….only to find out it will never make it to the stores in our state. I called all 3 stores near me and no one had seen the skirt. The skirt was sold out online except in size 2. SCORE  i thought only catch- lately I have been in between 2 and 4 size at H&M….sometimes I fit a 2 and other times a 4. I mustered up courage and placed my first ever online clothing order. By the time I placed the ordered I had already looked for the skirt for over a month. All of a sudden it was spotted in a nearby mall and I decided to just try it on. WHOOPS i cant fit a 2! I decided to buy the 4….only to come home and realize I placed the 4 back on the rack and brought home another 2! Finally after owning two of these skirts and having to return them with my size not available in the store anymore, I finally spotted a 4 again online on the website! I immediately ordered it and thankfully this time everything worked out beautifully. I love the skirt and everyone who has heard about the fiasco of this story agreed that it was worth the drama. I mean girls who have heavier bottoms (aka me) just dont fit right in skater skirts and dresses. There is no twirling room but this skirt is perfect for our body type. So i had to have it! Unfortunately couple other family requested I find this for them only….well the skirt is nowhere to be found anymore to everyone’s disappointment.

Let me know what you think about it- was it worth the hassle?

Smooth your Fine Lines and Wrinkles – 15% off Coupon Code included

 

Hi Lovelies,

I have another wonderful opportunity to share with you all today. Our friends at Eu Natural sent me a life size bottle of their Clarity Vitamin C Serum to try out and review for on my blog. I wanted to wait a few days to give it a shot so I can report my results accurately. Here goes:

Clarity Serum

The Serum is all natural and contains Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Hyaluronic Acid, and Herbal Extracts. The benefits that they mention that you will have by using 5 to 6 drops of the serum on your skin every morning directly will be a smoother skin, cleared dark spots as well wrinkles and fine lines will start to disappear.

I was super excited to give this product a try and used it diligently. My face doesn’t have any wrinkles or fine lines thankfully as of yet. I am hoping using this everyday will deter them from coming period. So I will report in the future if this actually holds true. But I did notice less visibility in a few dark spots on my face. My skin started to get slightly more glowy and most of my friends and coworkers noticed a change.

My next concern was what will happen to my extra sensitive skin? I break out very easily with new products but lo and behold over a week later my skin has only gotten better, no problems in that area either. The bottle of the serum compared to other brands selling similar product is very affordable at $39.95 (I also have a discount code for your orders at the bottom of this post to further reduce the price). The bottle comes with a dropper so you can easily get 5 to 6 drops out, rub your hands together and apply to cleansed and dry face. Simple, easy and fast! The serum is water like in consistency and is odorless, so I din’t have to worry about it making my skin smell a certain way as is with other all natural medicine smelling type products out in the market.

I give the folks at Eu Natural 5 stars at creating such a wonderful product and let me test it out for all of you guys. You will not be disappointed in this product if you are looking to reduce fine lines, wrinkles and correct some dark spots.

In the words of the company their mission is: At Eu Natural, our goal is to provide you with the purest nutritional products based on the latest health research. It may cost us more, but we manufacture without the use of any extra fillers, binders, or excipients.

Hi lovelies,

I am super excited to share that I was contacted by one of the most innovative makeup website to work on a project with them. I was among the first few bloggers to be selected to test the website prior to their launch in the US and share my experience with my audience. This tool is like a dream come true for me because I have suffered for years from the problem of continuously going and buying the same exact shades of lipstick and eyeshadows over and over again.  Or just buying the cutest shade of makeup only to come home and find out it doesn’t look cute on me at all. The packaging has been ripped open by then and I have already put it against my skin. There is no way I am returning that stuff. Then ofcourse their is the mystery of how would something that my friend or coworker is wearing, would look on me? You can’t go around testing products in the store or asking your friends to share them with you. No thank you that just sounds a bit gross too. Sharing makeup leads to alot of different infections. It is also useful if you are someone who never wears makeup, now is your chance to see what it will look like on you without having to buy all the products right away! So how does GlamSt resolve this issue?

GlamSt lets you upload a picture of yourself and I would suggest taking a good quality facial shot with no makeup on for best results. And choose from famous brands of makeup that we all know about, to apply to your picture. Okay I know how it sounds. I thought it would look tacky too just like those old hair style applications that were popping up on the internet in early 2000s but the IT person in me was completely taken aback by how real the makeup I was applying to the picture, looked. I even realized that my thought about not ever buying lipstick with a more orange tinge in it was a bad idea, they actually look great on my complexion. You can even see the details of the eyeliners and the mascara. And when you think that is it you can even apply different shades of concealers, blushes, face powders and foundations to your face. All and in All you get to play with makeup from top brands like clinique , Dior, Bobbie brown, NARS just to name a few. The options are endless and the results are very real life like. You even have the option to buy the products directly from GlamSt.

ChiclyCute GlamSt

GlamSt means alot to me not only because it is something that I find very useful and had been struggling with my entire life with but also because it was started by two women Engineers. Yes us techie girls love fashion and makeup too and its good to see other ladies using their skills to apply it to the makeup and fashion world.  I would like to also let you all know that I have not been paid by GlamSt in any way, shape or form. These opinions are all mine and true. If you don’t believe me head on over to http://www.glamst.com and try it out for yourself. Feel free to share your pictures on my facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/chiclycute or just leave a comment with your GlamSt link below! I would love to check them out.

I am Back!!! Leather, Metal and Snake Print!

Hi Sweeties,

Today was one of the warmest days of 2013! I was a little worried because I have been extremely sick for the past 3 days and I was scared that I might be in bed all day today instead of going out and having a ball. Thanks to my hubby who fed me pretty well the last two days and forced me to get out of bed and shower in hopes it will make feel fresher mentally. IT DID! not only I got to go out but I also recorded my new haul video!!! Sooo excited to edit and share it with you all soon this week.

I decided to wear my latest edition to my closet the H&M tweed dress. I just love how it fits on me. We still dragged along my spare wool jacket incase I feel cold or start getting sick again. I did have my moments when I felt faint but it was a beautiful day. We went to one of the oldest part of our city which is literally my backyard! I am excited because its full of antique shops, cute lil stores, coffee shops etc. We stopped by Bean Hollow and I had the best ever Chai Frappe! We also bought a humongous Cherry cheese danish to share! We took all that fun stuff to the park. Walked around and ate. After that we went to my fave burger place and I stuffed my self with some delicious food 🙂 All in all a productive day….hopefully this will not wear me out to make me sicker tomorrow…lets keep our fingers crossed.

Spring Makeup Tutorial Day or Night: Coral EyeShadow!

Hey lovelies,

I haven’t been able to post for a past few days. I had been incredibly busy with random stuff, work and personal life related. Not to mention I hurt my foot 😦 It’s still healing but I spent most of yesterday working from home on my bed and couch. Trust me sitting for hours would drive you mind numbingly crazy, if you weren’t sitting down by choice. The good thing though is I got to do a lot of video editing and such for the blog and my Youtube Channel: ChiclyCute

I am putting a tutorial on how to use a current makeup trend/color Coral, that I am currently in love with for the Spring and Summer. It seems to go well with so many different outfits! It doesn’t look over the top whether you wear it during the day time or night! The secret is using a Purple Eyeliner instead of an all black. It doesn’t make your eyes super dark making this look wearable to work or daytime funzzies 🙂 Enjoy

Makeup Product Reviews: Grow your Eyelashes longer? Elf pressed powder, Victoria Secret items, Comb that Saves lives(of hair) + more!

Hi again lovelies. So my energy has been off the charts lately. I am actually enjoying it a lot, no more falling asleep at 10pm like I used to while watching tv with the hubby! The more I do the more energetic I feel. I understand I might be running on lack of sleep but there are always weekends to catch up on that.

So here is my first makeup product review video! I have to say I honestly love every single product except one I felt meh about it. Please let me know if you use the same products and how your results are using them!

Earrings that turn into Bangels, Grape and Orangecream dream tucked in and tucked out :)

I can’t believe it is the end of the weekend already and beginning of a new work week! Over all the weekend was fun hung out with a few friends and had a movie date with the hubby. The Avengers rocked! And as always Captain America won my heart (you know: small person making it big after several failed attempts and saves the world! story of my life still looking on ways to save the world! lol)

Sadly my outfit pictures didn’t turn out the way I wanted them to. The pants are much prettier in person, also they look alil too white in the pictures (time for a new camera fund) and I have also featured them in the last youtube Haul video. So Check the video out as well since it would be alil more clearer in the video 🙂

Anyhow who ho is currently drained out and has realized its only just beginning of the week? Come on ladies speak up you know you need to let it all out 🙂

PS: I had pulled out these cute hoop earrings to wear, only to decide last minute that I am not going to wear them as earrings but as Bangles! They are clip on style hoops so they are complete circles and so far everyone at work hasn’t picked up that they aren’t hoops! They are astonished when I tell them. Ah another trick to add to the bag, try it wear your hoops as bangles 🙂

Scroll through the post for the picture of the hoop earrings worn as bangles, up close and personal 🙂
