Pimp my calculator!

Hai my fabulously frugal fashionistas! I'm sorry that I've been MIA for like ever! I'm going to try my best to keep up with the blog because I just joined the cast of my high school's production of LEGALLY MUSICAL (thats legally blonde if ya didnt know!). I will be playing Brooke Wyndham ;) so I wont have a lot of time. but here's a quick tutorial I thought you all might like.

OK so as you all may or may not know, I'm currently taking ap calculus -__________-. And when you take AP Calculus you are required to have an over-priced Texas Instruments Graphing Calculator (TI 83 Plus REPRESENT, it was cheaper than the TI 84, ayeee). And as boring as AP Calc may be, I found a way to make life easier :) BEDAZZLE YOUR CALCULATOR COVER

OK so this is what you're going to need.
Bucket O' Bling (http://www.walmart.com/ip/Kids-Crafts-Bucket-of-Bling-Assorted-Acrylic-Jewels/17753258) this is what I'm referring to..
A hot glue gun
Your graphing calculator (or a standard scientific calculator)
IMAGINATION.

Okay, so here's a picture of what I sort of mean..
but completely covered :D
Dizerections!
-Take the cover of your calculator and sit it on a shopping bag/towel to protect your work area
-while your glue gun is heating up, lay out your gems in the pattern you want and take a picture of it using your camera phone.
-glue the gems on & clean up your calculator for excess hot glue :)
-ENJOY.

Intimate Moments: Football game fashion


Okay girls, I know that school is back in session, which means it's football season!! Ok, I just wanted to sit down right quick and discuss the do's and dont of what you shall and shant wear to a game.
 
 
Shall:
Okay, it is okay to wear denim shorts, jeans, yoga pants, heck even skirts and dresses are cool, just nothing too fancy.
Fringed tee shirts are AMAZING. I even have a blogpost on how to make one right here http://fashionsonadime.blogspot.com/2012/06/how-about-you-do-it-yourself-fringed.html
sneakers, sandals (might get kinda itchy on the grass tho), pretty much anything FLAT.
JERSEYS, duhh
 
Shant:
-HEELS. ermegerd, I cannot express how much I hate when girls wear heels in inappropriate settings.
-fancy clothes - ok you're here to watch football and socialize, not go to the opera.
-white- football games are so gross, its just asking for a bottle of resolve
-expensive jewelry- yeah, thats exactly how you get that junk stolen
 
So here's the skinny:
while I AM pro-doowutchalike, I'm also anti-wear-stuff-in-the-wrong-setting so dont think I'm contradicting my POV here, just being sensible.
 
 
 
love peace & do your homework!
$ky.

Fashion Icon: Kreayshawn

If you haven't already guessed who this post is going to be about, I'll give you a hint: she's kreay-krey kute! Gave up? All right I'll tell you....its KREAYSHAWN!
Yes, this post is dedicated to none other than that kreay-zy girl that told us that gucci, louis, fendi, and prada were for basic chicks and she don't even bothaaa! (thank God for my amazing improvised censoring skills lol). I REALLY wanna tell you how inexpensive her look is & how adorbs she is :)

NOW LET'S GET IT CRACKIN UP IN THIS PIECE. (too much rap?)

okay, let's break down her gawwww-gous makeup (and face)
-Kreayshawn(which btw is a unique way of spelling 'creation', see how crafty she is?) goes nowhere without her signature cat-eye! I would personally suggest that you use a liquid or gel liner, but a fine brush dipped in water and black eyeshadow will do the trick! She has been quoted as saying that she's used Wet N' Wild eyeliner since the beginning of time! You can find it at any drug store or even like a convenience store (is that what you call walmart and target? if so then yes!!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8dieL6KLrE HOW TO DO A CATEYE.
-NO EYESHADOW. Point blank kiddos.
-She seems to wear a good full coverage foundation. I'm personally a fan of MAC, Bobbi Brown and Maybelline FIT ME, but we're just going to focus on the FIT ME product because its the perfect drug store alternative.
-Her lips are always cute, but if you're going for a "Gucci, Gucci" look (if you've been under a rock & not seen it, here it goes lol http://www.mtv.com/videos/kreayshawn/668829/gucci-gucci.jhtml ) a nude lip or just some chapstick is ideal because her lips definitely are just matte, no shine. But for this picture, a red lipstick would be your best choice. MAC's Ruby Woo is the best red I've ever used, its about $14 (correct me if i'm wrong) & last FOREVER! I've had it since December and haven't run out yet! It's definitely a good investment, but it shouldnt be a priority! If you have a red you like, just use it baby squirrel!

now let's briefly talk about her threads!
-Kreay is definitely about self expression and wearing whatever you think is cute, so just doowutchalike (digital underground reference)!!
-I've seen her wearing button ups, graphic tees, denim vests, skinny jeans, shorty shorts, crop tops, leggins, everything under the sun! But one thing about kreay is that she doesn't sacrifice comfort for fashion, she is always wearing sneakers because heels KILL HER FEET.

DEM JOOLZ!
-oh my baby back ribs, she has the coolest jewelry EVER! It ranges from bamboo earrings (check out my previous fresh prince post, it talks about it), multi finger rings, name plate necklaces, charm bracelets & whatever the heck her itty bitty heart desires.

Yes & let me briefly touch on her hair!
-its two toned, and flipped. Now isnt that how you spell $waggggg???

welp, I'm out of stuff to write, any suggestions, just comment and I can address it in a comment or new post ;)

PEACE OUT GIRL SCOUTS,
