Urban Outfitters Earrings and Asos Shoes

Outfit 

Earrings +Urban Outfitters 

Top -self made

Flats +ASOS 

Bag-  Ross

When I'm feeling really lazy, I usually wear my loose print pants because they almost feel like pajamas but look ten times more stylish. I really liked how my outfit came out despite my laziness. I think that it helps to dress up nicely to help you feel more energized and positive for the day. At least for me, it does make me feel better if I like what I'm wearing. It kind of gives me a feeling of hope for a good day. 

That is all I have dfor today, hope you have a nice day and always stay positive!

Romwe American Flag Crop Top

Top: +Romwe 

Jacket +Forever 21 

Jeans : +Styles For Less 

Lipstick -MAC

 So for this outfit I chose to go with the American flag red color, and black to make it look tougher because I was feeling a little lazy that day and didn't want to give too much thought into my outfit. So I went with simple items that pulled off a great look.

I have to say that my jacket is awesome to style with almost anything, but the only downside is that it is not as warm as I would like it to be. But I am okay with that because I got it for a really low price last year. And for my crop I think that it is versatile and does not necessarily have to be a staple item for the 4th of July. I think that flag prints can be worn any time of the year. You just need to style it to your own taste.

For the makeup, I just have to say that Mac's lipsticks are good overall, but I would like them to be a little more stainless like the ones from Limecrime that stay on your lips and won't annoy you with random lip-stains. But appart from that, I like the color and how long they last.

I think that is all I have to say today, Hope you found this blog interesting or helpful. Sorry that I did not post last week, but am working on new posts for the future!

Asos Flats Review

Top +Choies 

Skirt +Charlotte Russe 

Shoes +ASOS 

Coat- Handmade by my grandma

I purchased these flats from Asos with a 30% discount. They arrived after about a week, and the box was a little open, but luckily nothing was missing.

I am a true size 6, but ordered a 7 because on their measuring charts. The size 6 is a little bit smaller than othershoe  stores, so I went with a bigger size. 

They fit me alright, not too lose nor too tight. But I think that a 6.5 would have been better for me. Sadly they do not handle half sizes. 

Either way thay are pretty comfortable and the soles are perfect for walking everywhere since the soles are quite rubbery and do not slip. 

If you are thinking about purchasing a pair of shoes from Asos, do not go by the number, but by the measurement in their shoe size chart. Measure your own feet to see which size is the best for you. 

I hope you found this review helpful. If you have any questions, suggestions, or anything to say, comment down below in the comments section. I would love te reply.

What's in my First Free Graze Box?

Top Left: Morning Energizer (dried pears, cherries, and walnuts) - 140 kcal

Top Right: Toffee Apple (Toffee sauce with granny smith apple slices) - 70 kcal

Bottom Left: Raspberry and Coconut Muffin (Amaretti drops, raspberry infused cranberries, almond slices, and coconut flakes) - 140 kcal

Bottom Right: Japanese Nori Crackers (Japanese seaweed rice crackers) - 60 kcal

I must say that I was pretty happy with what I got in my first free graze box. Everything was really good and most of all healthy. The best part about Graze is that you get to choose from a variety of snacks (more than 90) that range from granola bars and dried fruit, to tortilla chips with salsa and pretzels with peanut butter.

If you order a box from graze ($6) they will randomly select four different snacks that you have previously selected as your "try" options, and discard the ones that you have marked as "trash". For example I marked as "trash" a snack that had spicy walnuts and also another one that has unsalted popcorn because I don't really like any of those. But I did click on "try" on snacks such as pretzels with peanut butter and dark chocolate drops with walnuts and dried fruits.

You can also cancel your order before they have sent your healthy snack box (which takes them about a week) or you can postpone your order for later without any fee.

I got my first Graze box for free by using a code that I got from a magazine that I am subscribed to. I think that it was the best thing that I could have done because I got a box totally free and I got to enjoy four different healthy snacks of my choice along with my mom (I shared).

If you want to get a Graze box for FREE, feel free to use my code : MAYUT9Y9P

Just go to www.graze.com and enter the code before ordering so that you can get the box for FREE!

https://www.graze.com/us/p/MAYUT9Y9U

I really hope you will be able to get your box because it is totally worth it! It will make me really happy if you use my special code and get your box for free just like I did.

That is all for now, and thank you!

Oasap Review

 This is the first time that I have ever made a purchase at +OASAP and I was a little bit disappointed because of the material of the clothes. It is not a soft and comfortable material as clothes on +Choies that are really high quality. I think that the obvious reason is the pricing. While +OASAP has lower quality on the fabric of their clothing than +Choies , it is definitely a lot more cheaper in price. I was really satisfied with the fact that I could get this amazing shirt that I am wearing in the picture, I truly loved it and I think it was definitely worth its price, although it could have a better fabric.

 

I am also pleased witht he fact that +OASAP actually uploaded my picture to their website. If you would like to see I will provide you the link down bellow:

http://www.oasap.com/t-shirts-vests/39158-cat-patchwork-plaid-blouse.html

It is in the bottom left of the page and you just have to click on the right arrow where a video is being displayed and wait for a few seconds for the picture to load!

 

Overall I think that Oasap.com is a good place to purchase casual clothing that is not pricey for your wallet. They were pretty quick in their delivery and you get benefits from buying from them such as points that can be used for your next purchase and discount coupons. I do not think that it's a great place to buy clothing that will have a lot of use because of the quality of the fabric, which I believe would not as last that long. I would recommend sites such as +Choies,@chicwish and +Sheinside StreetFashion (these are my favorites) that are similar to Oasap, but do deliver clothing that will have longer wear

How to make a Layered Smoothie or Milkshake

This was my first attempt doing a layers smoothie, and it actually came out pretty good. I didn't use any recipe or anything, I just went with my instincts and hoped for the best. But I will list everything that I used and how I did it. 

Ingredients: 

1 cup of soymilk

1/2 cup of plain oats

1/2 banana 

4 strawberries

1 tbsp honey or sugar (optional)

Steps: 

1. Blend half a cup of milk, oats, and banana. (Pineapple is optional for color)

2. Pour everything in cup or jar. 

3. Blend the rest of the milk, oats, and strawberries. (Beet is optional for color)

4. Pour on top of banana milkshake. 

5. Decorate with a strawberry. 

Don't worry about how the milkshake will taste with the beet because you cannot even tanste it since you only need a small piece of it to give a lot of color (they are really pigmented and stain a lot!). 

I hope you enjoyed my original recipe for making a layered smoothie or milkshake. If you make one, please tag me and/or hashtag #mayugirl so that I can see how yours came out!

 Love, Mayu Girl

Gelish Nails?

For the first time ever, a good friend of mine did my nails with her +Gelish kit. It was really interesting for me because I had never seen such long process to apply any kind of nail polish, but it was definitely worth it. I don't know the steps required, nor the different types of things needed, but just broadly I can say that she applied a transparent coat, then the color coat, and finally another protective coat. In between each color coat, I had to put my hand below a blue light for the paint to dry on my nails. They came out really shiny and were long lasting compared to regular nail polish.
I only know that +Gelish is like a hybrid between regular nail polish and acrylic nails because of the thick smooth feeling. I hope you find this helpful, thank you for reading, and finally if you would like, please follow:

This is definitely one of my favorite nail art designs ever! I hope you like it too. 

1. I used false almond shaped nails and painted them with a nude color. 

2. Then I drew the heart shapes with a red nail polish.

Hair Care 101

• Only shampoo the top part of your hair by massaging your scalp.  This will help prevent your ends from getting damaged, since you only really need to get rid of the dirt and oils from your scalp. 
• Only apply hair conditioner on the bottom half of your hair. Hair conditioner makes your hair heavier so don't apply on the top part to prevent it from falling.  
• Dry shampoo and conditioner protect your hair from UV sun rays. This will help your hair keep its natural oils, which will prevent breakage and dryness. 

• Do not brush your hair when it is wet, wait for it to dry. Brushing your hair right after you take a shower will only increase the chances of damage and split ends. 

• Do not put your hair in a tight ponytail, loosen it up! Love your hair by not putting it on too much pressure. Hairstyles that require tightening your hair will cause your hair to fall off.

• Avoid hair dryers, straighteners, and curlers. Avoiding these tools will help your hair heal faster from damage. 

• Don't dry your hair with a towel. Leave your towel on but don't rub your hair with it because it will damage your hair.

Falsies + Studded Nails DIY

 

Steps:

1. Glue on nails-

I used the Revlon Color Allure Medium 91051. The little box contains 24 nails with different sizes, glue, a small file, and a little stick for cuticles. 

2. Glue on studs-

I purchased the studs from Forever 21 at a very cheap price. I think it was on sale then. To glue them on, I used the same glue I used for my nails. 

Be careful to not glue your fingers because the glue is very strong! I was honestly pretty scared at first, but it is pretty easy and worth it. By the way, the box says that the nails should be removed after a week to prevent nails from becoming weak and breaking.

Since a lot of people have been asking me how I do my nails, here is the link to the tool I got from Ebay . It is kind of like a pencil. You simply dip the tool in your nail polish and then you go ahead and draw whatever you want on your nails! I you can't purchase a tool like this, you could use a pencil or a pen to draw (I used to do that and it worked!) you just have to be a little more patient when making mistakes.

My Favorite Nail Polish

 

I do not feel like writing today. I think this is self explanatory.

Things to do on an Airplane

Outfit: Top&Shorts - Original by Mayu Girl

Two weeks ago, I sat on an airplane for thirteen hours! So here are some tips to helped me from dying of boredom and a flat butt.

The first thing that came to my mind was to socialize with this guy that was sitting two seats next to me. We were lucky because we had an empty seat between us so we had some extra space. We talked about a lot of different things. It was pretty fun to get out of my comfort zone and speak to strangers, lol. 

After that, I thought that I would watch a movie, but I discovered that for some reason the economy class had to purchase the earphones for two bucks. Unfortunately, I did not bring my own earphones and I did not want give up 2 bucks for some earphones that wouldn't even last me for a day. So I watched two tv shows and three movies without audio. That was pretty fun... 

Then during lunch, I ate as slow as I could to waste some time, I drank a lot of water, which made me go to the bathroom about five times.

After that, I think I just went to sleep. Oh wait no, I did some of my homework. But that doesn't count because it wasn't fun. 

That is it for today's story, I will be posting lookbooks in the future because I just got loads of clothes in my mail and I am pretty excited to show them to you, yay.

DIY "Eye Do My Nails"

Steps:

1. Paint nails with color of choice
2. Paint white almonds in the middle of each nail
3. Paint small blue circles inside the white almonds
4. Outline the eyes with black nail polish
5. Paint little dots in the middle of the blue circle

I felt really creative doing this design. I really wanted to do something different on my nails and went for the "eye spy" design. I think it came out pretty cool, except for the black lines; my nail polish kept on drying so I wasn't able to draw a straight line around the eyes (that's why they look all squiggly). Apart from that, I really liked the design.

On my Nails:

• 440 Mint Sprint - Sally Hansen
• 449C White - Wet n Wild
• 130 Blue Me Away! - Sally Hansen
• 11327 Black - Wet n Wild
