Hurts like Heaven-OotD (12/04/2012)
Top:Forever 21(Similar) Cardigan: Torrid Jeans: Dots(Similar) Hat: Target Boots:GabrielBrothers(Similar) Earrings: Forever21(Similar)
Uh hey guys. Yes this semester is nearly at it's end! I've worked a show, I've failed a class and I declared my Major. It may not have been the best semester for me but it's certainly been one of the more exciting ones.
Oh today is my birthday! I'm officially 25! I had a mini "oh god that's my age?" freak out for like two seconds. Then I realized that age is just a number. I'm happy where my life is right now. I've grown leaps and bounds since last year. So here's to 25!
Now that my closet has expanded I hope to do more outfit of the day posts and more face of the days. What do you guys think of this look? I really love my polka dot top. Probably the best ten bucks I've ever spent ever. See ya soon!
Helen

The Good Witch (October 11,2012)-Ootd
Dress:Torrid (Similar Cut) Cami:Dots Sweater: Lane Bryant Boots: Kohls (Similar) Cuff: Hot Topic Bracelet: Craft Store Necklace: Gift
My friend loved this outfit. She said I looked like a kindergarden teacher that was actually a witch. She then went on to develop a whole story where I taught the children of my class how to call faeries and perform magic through dance. That's what you get for hanging out with writers all day long.
So whatcha think of this outfit? Boho or no go?

Purple Haze (Or some such creative title.)-fotd
So purples are really in right now for fall. If you know me I wear purple all the time no matter what season it is.
Lately my life has been kind of stressful. For the first time I have a job and full time classes. I'm not used to this much stress! I don't know how you people do it.
Eyes-
TFSI
Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner pencil in Ransom (Royal purple used as a base. Some what patchy.)
Urban Decay Fun palette
-Freakshow (Dark royal purple patted on the lid and smudged lightly on the lower lid.)
-Fishnet (Lovely purple blended into the crease and smudged on the inner corner of the lower lid.)
-Sellout (New favorite highlighter used on the inner corner of the eye and brow bone.)
Almay liquid eyeliner in black
Urban Decay 24/7 in Perversion
Mascara
lips-
Rimmel lipstick in In Vouge
Estee Lauder Pure Color High Gloss in Flash Dance
My friend and I bought the new Tarte palette together (since it was fifty eight bucks!) which means, you guessed it, swatches! The eyeshadows are really great but the last power isn't what I expected. I'm thinking it was just my base failing but I still have some more tests to do. I also have another outfit of the day planned to post on Monday. Hopefully I be able to take some none blurry pictures.

Working Girl-Outfit of the Day (September 27,2012)
Shirt:Target Cami:Dots Jeans:Dots Boots:Candies
Also know as: Where Helen cosplays Sam Winchester
I missed you guys! I haven't blogged much because I recently got a job working at Lane Bryant. I've also been going to school full time. It's a bit stressful and sometimes I'm unsure of myself but so far so good.
The simple make-up you see before you has become my uniform for school and work. It's easy to slap on some ivory shadow and brown in the crease with a little liner. I miss apply colors though.
Okay I know these pictures are blurry as hell around my face. Bare with me here, I've never taken ootd pics before. I had a friend help but she's not used to taking full body shots either. I'd love some more tips to taking full body shots!

The Moose Winchester-fotd
This look is based off of Sam Winchester the youngest brother. He's the "heart" of the duo, good to the bone. Sam is smart and extremely witty even if his hair is a bit floppy in some of the seasons. Despite the fact that Castiel is my favorite I feel the most connected with Sam. Even though Sam has gone through hell most of his life he's still a good person. He still tries to do good and help others. Before he started hunting again he wanted to be Lawyer. Sam is just lovely! I chose mostly greens for this look because he wears a lot of it, plus his eyes are green. The purple on the lid was actually an accident. I was trying to do a smokey look but the eyeshadow changed on me! Dang duo-chromes.
What I used:
Eyes-
TFSI
Wet n Wild eyeliner in black (Used as a base all over the lid.)
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy (Just a tiny bit.)
Darling Girl e/s in Sultry Siren (Appears to be a pretty olive green turns purple on black bases apparently.)
Mac e/s in Jealousy Wakes (A medium emerald green widely blended into the crease and run along the lower lashline.)
Sugarpill e/s in Acidberry (Acidic chartruse blended into the emerald green.)
Fyrinnae e/s in Nijiro (Shimmery ivory used to highlight the inner corners of the lid.)
Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Perversion
Almay Liquid eyeliner in black
Mascara
lips-
Wet n Wild lipstick in Black Orchid (Used along the outer corner of the lower lip to add smokey depth to the added pink.)
Wet n Wild lipstick in Fuschia with Blue Pearl (Used on the inner pout of the lip and along the top lip.)
Dean's is going to be hard. My friend suggested I do a neutral but dark smokey eye because the show it's self is pretty dark. I mean every other character dies in this show. Don't get overly attached or you'll find yourself covered in tissues with to many feels. What other characters should I do from the show? I was thinking Crowely, maybe Lucifer as well as Castiel and Bobby. Any suggestions?

Dark Side of the Rainbow-fotd
I found an editorial on Tumblr of a model showing off her cute purple nails next to her extremely done up eyes. I tried to copy the look as best as I could considering the young lady has a very different eye shape then me. The model was wearing more yellow on the inner corner of her eye but on me it would have looked like a bruise. I haven't been able to find a link to the look but it's on my Tumblr some where in their. (Among the Supernatural gifs.)
What I used:
Eyes-
TFSI
Nyx Jumbo pencil in Milk
Sugarpill e/s in Afterparty (A turquoise leaning blue patted on the lid.)
Sugarpill e/s in Dollipop (Bright hot pink swept along the lower lid and crease.)
Sugarpill e/s in 2AM (Red based purpled used in the crease to deepen the color a bit.)
Sugarpill e/s in Mochi (Aqua mint patted in the middle of the lid on top of Afterparty.)
120 palette (Primary yellow patted on the inner corner of the eye.)
Nyx e/s in Black (Matte black used lightly to deepen the crease slightly.)
Sugarpill e/s in Poison Plum (Perfect purple lightly used in the crease.)
Too Faced e/s in Silk Teddy (Shimmery sheer pink used to highlight the inner corner and the brow bone.)
Almay liquid eyeliner in black
Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Perversion
Mascara
Lips-
Wet n Wild lipstick in Taj-mauve-hall
Supernatural looks are coming soon. Sam's look is done but I'm having a hard time with Dean. How the hell do you do make-up based off of male characters? Oh gosh!
