O-Mighty James Franco Top and ZooShoo Platform Sandals

Top: omighty.com
Bottoms: Japan
Cardi: +Forever 21
Shoes: +ZOOSHOO 

I just wanted to share my opinion on the online stores O Mighty and ZooShoo, since I have recently made purchases through these websites for the first time, and wanted to review their products for those who are unsure about purchasing products through these websites. 

1) O Mighty Top:
Super comfortable fabric, very good quality, but definitely and expensive website to purchase products. I think I got this top on a day where they were offering 50% discount last year, which is extremely rare for O mighty to offer any discounts. But it was totally worth it because it is a unique and fun top to wear on casual days.

2) ZooShoo Sandals
These sandals are very very comfortable and I am very happy that I purchased them because on top of being super comfortable, they were very inexpensive compared to Birks. At first I was nervous about ordering these shoes because I had never ordered any shoes from +ZooShoo but I have realized that they are a pretty good online website to purchase shoes from since I have also bought another pair of shoes which are pretty amazing, in my opinion.

So overall I had a very good experience with both websites and do recommend them for those in search of unique clothing from O Mighty and shoes from ZooShoo. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, please feel free to comment on my blog. 

Have a great one!

Missguided Shoes, Urban Outfitters Socks

Tops: Japan

Skirt: +Charlotte Russe 

Socks: +Urban Outfitters 

Shoes: +Missguided 

I think it is the first time that I have ever worn a matching set in my life, and I love it. It is so effortless yet it looks so nice. I kind of tried to match the color of my top with the socks, which I think worked out nicely. So you will probably see me doing this more often, I mean wearing sets and matching stuff haha.

As for the shoes from Missguided, I though that they would go along well with my sheer socks from UO. I also wanted to say that the shoes are super comfortable because they have a heavy sole. I don't know if that makes sense but it feels really comfortable. I got these from the sale section and they were worth it! I believe that they are no longer available but they do have really nice and cheap shoes on their webpage. So yes, I would recommend Missguided shoes to those who are not familiar with the breand and are thinking about geting a pair of shoes.

And for the socks, I love them to death. The only thing is that I can't find any socks like these anywhere and I wish they were available because I want more! They are just perfect for the warmer weathers and don't make your feet feel overheated.

Influenster Blossom Vox Box

This month, +Influenster sent me a free box complimentary for testing purposes. It was a big surprise for me because they had never sent me anything bigger than a bag of fruit, so I was really happy and excited when I received it.

Inside the box there were a few coupons included as well as a card that described each item included in the box or #BlossomVoxBox 

1. Hair Food Root Cleansing Shampoo ($9.99)

This shampoo smells like strawberries with a hint of ginger. It is a shampoo that claims to detoxify your hair and scalp by removing buildup. It really does do what it says from what I experienced. My scalp felt super refreshed and my hair felt really soft and smelled great. I would really recommend it because it does what it says and because it is made with healthy ingredients that will benefit your hair.

2. Australian Gold Sunscreen SPF 30 ($7.99)

This sunscreen smells really good at the beginning but as time passes by, it becomes a little too overwhelming. It gave me a headache when I put it on my neck and cheeks. I think this is best for the body and not parts that are too close to your nose or you may feel dizzy like me, I did like that it did not feel greasy and that it did not smell like regular sunscreen, at least they are trying to be different!

3. Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs (13.99)

4. NYC Color City Proof 24 HR Shadow (Tribeca Taupe; $2.99)

I was not really happy with this product because it feels as if I'm drawing my lids with crayola because it feels really sticky and not very smooth. It also came out of the tube while I was applying it. So from what I experiences, I would not recommend this product...

5. Beanitos ($3.49)

I was really impressed with these chips because they are really really good and are made with healthy and natural ingredients. I really liked these chips because of the thick, perfectly round chips, that were so delicious and flavorful. Definitely give them a try!!! @Beanitos #AllinaBagofChips

I ate these chips with a small salad and it almost reminded me of a decomposed taco. I really enjoyed this healthy snack from Beanitos.

6. Bear Naked Granola ($10.49/ 12 oz.)

These granola bar pouches seemed pretty normal except for the fact that one of them had a curry flavor, which was pretty interesting. The granola alone was crunchy and flavorful. I think they are a good option for healthy snacking. The only thing that was disappointing was the fact that the pouch on the left only had one small cube of caramel and the one on the right only had two pieces of almonds, everything else was granola. I wish they had included a little bit more of those extra ingredients other than granola. @livvebearnaked #livebearnaked #contest +Influenster 

7. Nasoya Pasta Zero Noodles

I am really happy that +Influenster sent me these pasta noodles because they are really healthy and do not feel heavy. They are only 15 calories per serving which is half of the pouch where they come in. Which is why they are filling but won't make you bloat. So this is how I used them: +Nasoya #nasoyapastazero #contest

1) Cook Vegetables

2) Follow instrution in package to cook noodles. Cut noodles in shorter length.

3) Mix vegetables and noodles with water.
4) Add in fish powder for flavor

5)Add chicken and lemon flavored soysauce

6) Serve with rice.

Sheinside/Chicwish Fuffy Black and White Jacket

Top and Cardi from +Sheinside StreetFashion
Watch +CITIZEN WATCH
Lipstick +MAC Cosmetics (HEROINE)
Eye Shadow +Pixi by Petra 

After dying my hair darker, I noticed how well it matched a lot of my monotone clothes and added a little bit of an edge, although it is not a bright or striking color. To be honest, at first, I hated the color of my hair because I wanted to keep it red like before, but I have slowly started to like it even more because I can see how it contrasts and defines my face nicely.

As to my outfit, I want to tell you that Sheinside is a great place to find fashionable and unique pieces at a very low price compared to other high end stores. I really recommend it because not only is it fashionable but also has great quality to the fabric they use. For example, the jacket/ cardigan I am wearing is really really warm and the top is very soft and is not see through.

Forever 21 Tribal Sleeve Faux Fur Jacket Coat

Outfit info:

Jacket +Forever 21 

I love this jacket because of the tribal print of the sleeves and the faux fur lining. I got this jacket last year, I believe and I have been loving it ever since. The only complaint I have is that the jacket came with holes in the pockets so I lose anything that I put in there (for example my rings or other small accessories; or money)

Top +Choies

This crop top is really nice because of the smoothness of the fabric and the turtle neck, which makes every outfit a lot more sophisticated and fashionable. It also goes along well with anything! 

Skirt +PacSun 

This burgundy skirt is from the brand Brandy Melville. I got it last summer and I can only say that it is really thin and it does not feel like it covers enough, so by using tights underneath or shorts, fixes everything.

Flats +ASOS 

I got these flats a few months ago and I have been loving them ever since, At the beginning I was not sure wether or not to get them because Asos does not have a reviewing system so I was not able to see what other people thought about this product. But now that I have purchased them, I can tell you that they are worth every penny. The sole of the shoes are very thick, so it really gives you a surface that will not slip or hurt your feet after standing for a while. They also go with almost every outfit because of its simple design.

That is all for this blog, hope you liked it, and if you have any suggestions, leave a comment!

January 2015 Ipsy Makeup Subscription Box

1. Nourish Organic Renewing Eye Cream Sample

    I have been using this product and all I can say is that it does not irritate my eyes like other facial moisturizers. There is  no re freshening feeling but it does moisturize. It also does not have a strong scent and it does not feel heavy. I would recommend it to people with sensitive skin because it is light enough and does not include harsh chemicals for the skin around your eyes.

2. All Over Shadow Brush ($9.99)

   I love this brush because of the color and because of how soft it is. I would really recommend it if you like to apply your eyes shadow with a brush. I can't believe I finally got a make up tool!

3. Malin + Goetz Mojito Lip Balm ($12)

I love this lip balm because it is really easy to apply and very moisturizing. The tip is shaped like a lip gloss applicator and the balm itself is transparent but  has a thick texture almost like a lip gloss.

4. Bella Pierre Shimmer Powder ($14.99)

  Since I am not into loose powder eye shadows, I can't say that I love it. But looking at the price of it, satisfies me enough to feel that it was worth my $10 for Ipsy this month.

5. Pacifica Natural Mineral Coconut Powder Sample

  This is the product that everyone got in their Ipsy bag. Again, I do not have much to say because I have not used it and am not really attracted to using it.

Overall:

I think that this month's bag was really good because it was worth $36.98 (it costs $10 to subscribe!), and because I loved that they included a make up tool for the first time in my bag and because I really liked the lip balm and the eye moisturizer. I can't really complain about the bag itself either because it is really versatile and I love the colors of it!

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.

Forever 21 Blue Jacket Outfit

Jacket +Forever 21 

Top +Styles For Less 

Skort Japan

Tights +Forever 21 

What I love the most about the winter, is different jackets and coats you can wear because I love how cozy and fashionable they can be. 

For this outfit, I really loved the contrast between the white lace of the skort and the black tights. I also liked that I actually matched my outfit by wearing navy blue. 

The only disclaimer is that my hair is not always this nice. It's usually frizzy and dry, but I guess miracles happen. Lol. 

See you soon,

Choies Plaid Trousers and Forever 21 Cardigan Outfit

Top: +Choies 
Cardigan: +Forever 21 
Pants: +Choies 

Personally, I love this outfit a lot because I love crop tops and high wasted pants. And I have to confess that I took inspiration from a Beauty blogger named Leanne Lim-Walker. I saw one of her pictures on Instagram (@leannelimwalker) and she was wearing these pants from Choies with a black belt and a bustier. 

I also have noticed that +Choies has been lowering its prices. It is probably because of all of the other competitors such as +Sheinside StreetFashion and +DressLily, who have almost the same clothing and accessory items, but sell them at a much cheaper price. And this is really good because we get to benefit from their competition. 

That is all I have to share for today, hope you found my blog inspiring and/or interesting. You will be seeing more of these kinds blogs in the future, but for the meantime, you can follow me through Instagram and Twitter @mayugirl1 with a ONE at the end!

Le Tote Box subscription Review

Le Tote is a monthly subscription box for $50 that sends three clothing items and two accessories in each bag, along with a free tote and a measuring tape in the first box. 

For my secong free box, I got items that I really did not like, and that I would never use or wear. So I guess I am glad that I was able to cancel this subscription because it was not for me. 

I would recommend this subscription box to people who spend a lot of money in brand clothing and accessories and would like to receive an unlimited amount of rented clothing a month. And can keep them by paying a little bit more. 

Le Tote is a sophiaticated subscription box that is not for people like me who would rather have nice and cheap clothing over expensive brand clothing that looks the same. 

I am not saying that it is a bad box, because they have really nice clothing items; but it's just a little bit expensive for me. 

That is all for this review,

November 2014 Ipsy Subscription Box Review

Ipsy is a makeup monthly subscription bag for $10. Every month Ipsy sends its subscribers a small makeup bag along with four to five full and sample products that match your preferences. These preferences are different for every person, since you have to complete a survey at the beginning of the process to personalize your Ipsy bags. For example you can choose to mark as favorites eye shadows and facial masks, while leaving off lipsticks and mascaras. Of course this does not mean that you will never get these products, but instead  Ipsy will try to provide you with the product you prefer and sometimes introduce you to products that you thought you would never like, but end up liking (like me).

Also after sending their monthly bags, Ipsy provides their subscribers with special discount coupons for the products of the month!

1. Pixie Dust Oil Roll On Perfume Oil (.29 oz.; $0) http://www.demeterfragrance.com/772733/products/Pixie-Dust.html

2. Elizabeth Mott you're so FINE Eyeliner (0.1 oz.; $17.99)

3. L.A. Colors Chunky Lip Pencil (0.095 oz.; $3.50)

4. Nicole by O.P.I. Nail Polish (0.5 fl. oz.; $5.99)

5. TEMPTU S/B Highlighter (0.1 fl. oz.; $0)

http://temptu.com/

Total Cost: $27.48

I really liked everything in this month's Ipsy. Especially the eyeliner because I was in need of one! And I really liked the smell of the roll on oil perfume, it was definitely a great first experience using this type of perfume. The highlighter and the nail polish are obviously really good, and last but not least, the lip pencil was just okay.

Le Tote Free Subscription Box Review

Le Tote is a monthly subscription box that sends three brand clothing pieces and two accessory pieces in a box for $50 a month. 

Every subscriber has the opportunity to get unlimited number of boxes each month after returning the items to Le Tote. The perks of this box is that if you decide to keep an item, you just don't send it back and then they will charge you for it; or if you send everything back, you will get another box with different items withput ant additional cost. 

This past month I tried the free trial for Le Tote and they sent me my box in about two or three days later. My box included:

1. BCB Generation Top ($58)

2. Joan Retro Dress ($67)

3. Beatrice Statement Earrings ($18)

4. Industrial Bracelet ($18)

5. Kate Maxi Skirt ($34)

This top was really  soft and comfortable, I almost wanted to keep it on forever. I loved the high low shape at the bottom necause it gave a flowy and edgy look. I really loved it. 

I fell in love with this dress and earrings. I am really pleased with the products because of the high quality and comfortability. And the best part is that I got to try them for free. 

This bracelet was really nice, but I don't really use any kind of bracelets, so I didn't even take it out of the package. 

This one's last only because it was huge on me, both width and length. They sent me the smallest size, but it was still too big for me. If it fit, It would have been perfect because I have been loking for a black maxi skirt for a long while now. But it's hard to find the perfect size because I'm not that tall. 

 I think Le Tote is a great subscription box for those who like to change their wardrobe frequently, but do not want to spend too much on new clothes and accessories. I would not recommend it for those who actually like to keep their items and use them repetitively because it's going to become too expensive in the long run. 

If you have anybother subscroption boxes that you would recommend, please comment down below! i would like to try new boxes. Or if you would like me to review a box, please tell me (:

Hope you liked my review!

Thank you,

O Mighty Grinch Top/ Pacsun Mom Shorts

Top : O-Mighty 

Shorts: Pacsun

I bought my top from the sale section for $10, which was super cheap compared to the prices of their regular products, which are priced around $45. O-mighty is a quite expensive online store, but it is definitely worth it because the quality of their clothing is really good, or at least the one crop top that I have from them does have a good quality and is very comfortable.

The shorts I have, I purchased in stores during the summer, it was quite expensive, but totally worth it because of the soft and comfortable denim and perfect sizing. I do not remember how much it was exactly, but I think it was around $30. After about a week of my purchase, there was a sale on all of their shorts and I felt quite angry about the fact that I didn't wait for the discount, but I do feel good about having bought them before, because during the sale, these shorts were not available anymore, so I assume that they sold out (?).

That is all I have to say from this outfit, if you have any questions, please comment down below. And thank you very much!

Charlotte Russe Butterfly Print High-Low Skirt

After a couple of years, I finally decided to wear this skirt. I don't know why I hadn't used it before because it's gorgeous and I love it. I actually bought it during "Happy Hour" at +Charlotte Russe, which is the time where the store gives random discounts to costumers for a limited amount if hours during the weekend. I think I got this skirt for half the price or so, and I also got myself another orange/lace high low skirt that I haven't used yet...

Also after sending their monthly bags, Ipsy provides their subscribers with special discount coupons for the products of the month!

So in the following images, I will show you each product I have, along with its retail price, and calculated price (if the product I received was sample sized).

I loved the color of the lipstick and how smoothly it can be applied. It is not a really pigment, which perfect for those people who don't like bold lips.
 This nail polish is the bomb. It dries pretty quickly and it doesn't smell like nail polish usually smell like. And the color is gorgeous. In love!

Overall I LOVE this month's Ipsy bag. I couldn't have been more satisfied with what I got. Everything is good quality and goes beautifully with my skin. The price that this bag would have cost me is around $50. I can't beleive how much I got with only $10. I truly recommend you to try this monthly subscription because you will not regret it!
