Bloom: A Girl's Guide To Growing Up Gorgeous Book Review

Hi everyone! Man, it has just been waaaay too long since I've posted. I have been pretty busy on the weekends, but other than that, just plain laziness has gotten in the way of me posting.

Anyway, I recently went to the bookstore and bought this book by Carmindy. It's titled Bloom: A Girl's Guide To Growing Up Gorgeous. Beforehand, I had never even heard of Carmindy, other than that she chose not to give her last name and was writing something beauty-related. Now, after reading this book, I have found that she is an extremely talented makeup artist and writer as well.

I HIGHLY recommend this book to all teenage girls. Besides the makeup tutorials, Carmindy explains that inner beauty and outer beauty have a connection, and how your outer beauty is worthless if you don't have inner beauty as well. This is something that I strongly believe in. When I wear makeup for special occasions and get all dressed up, my inner beauty bursts with confidence and I feel great on the inside and the outside.

Throughout this book, Carmindy gives you advice on skincare, tips for applying your makeup just right, what makeup products to use, and an everyday makeup tutorial called "The 5-Minute Face," which is great for girls who don't like to wear a lot of makeup (me!!!). Bloom is definitely a great book for makeup beginners and girls who want to sharpen their skills. 

What do you think about Bloom, ladies? Comment down below! Remember to stay beautiful and be yourself!

See ya around!

My Top 5 Fall Clothing Favorites!

Hi guys! As you know, Halloween was last night, and I hope everyone got a mountain of candy (I sure did)! I am extremely tired, because, who goes to bed early on a Halloween Friday night? 

Fall is slowly coming to my city, and I can't wait to start wearing some awesome fall clothes! I don't know what it is about Autumn fashion, but everyone's in love with it (including me). You know why? You can get away with being both stylish and comfortable--my favorite style of all time! Today I will be talking about my top five favorite fall clothing items, and-who knows? Maybe you can relate to a few of them!

5. Knit hats

Knit hats not only keep you warm, but they look so cute! Beanies, slouchy beanies, berets, etc. 

4. Knee-high knit socks

These socks look adorable paired with boots and skater skirts-and they are super warm! 

3. Infinity Scarves

I don't know what it is about these scarves, but they can make a simple outfit look absolutely stunning! Just wearing a T-shirt and jeans with an infinity scarf can boost the look to make it more stylish than casual. 

2. Leggings 

For days when I don't want to wear pants, these are a life saver. Leggings are super comfortable and easy to move in. You can wear these almost everywhere--whether it be a super casual workout at the gym or a night out with your friends! 

1. Sweaters

There really isn't an explanation why I love sweaters so much. They are both  comfortable and stylish. Enough said. 

I hope you enjoyed reading this blog post and have a nice Halloween hangover!

See ya around!
