How to: Girly and Feminine Looks

So this is a post on how to pull off a girly and feminine look if you're just in the mood to dress up! Just some suggestions to get you going.

Dress up... literally

One way of being all girly is picking out a dress. You wanna go with pastel colors but I personally prefer nudes and peach dresses. They are very flattering on any kind of skin color and body build. Like this dress from Romwe:

Nothing says a girly girl than pink! If you have a larger tummy (like me) I think an empire cut dress would be more comfy. You wanna go with something flowy not super duper fit. If you're on the chubby side, it would still look awesome.

Try these other outfits if you're not comfy with dresses:

Makeup...

Blush is a key component in looking all feminine. It's important to pick a pink peachy blush with a more natural look than corals and reds. I love The Body Shop's Lip and Cheek Tint. It's a bit pricey (P795) but it looks natural and feels natural.

Go for tints. If you like powder blushes more, I recomment Clinique's blushes! I have a sample size of their blush which I don't have with me right now, but it kinda looks scary because it has shimmer, but once you put it on your face the shimmer disappears.

Softness is key, so I wouldn't apply a dark eyeliner over my eyes, maybe a hint of brown eyeshadow and mascara would be awesome.

You wanna focus on the cheeks and lips. I would wear a pinky almost your-lips-but-better kinda lipstick. 



So that's it for this "fashion" tutorial. Hope you learned a lot. :) I am actually inspired to write this because I am really in the mood to dress up as girly as possible these past few days.


A little commercial, Romwe is having another sale on skirts this time. Don't forget to drop by their website and just look at their awesome designs.

Stuff I would like to have if I ever had the money right now! Sequins are very dramatic and classy at the same time. Paring it up with  gold/bronze and black makes it all the more classy and sophisticated.

I especially love the sequin racerback tank with the blue at the bottom! It is super unique and I think shall go well with some faux leather leggings and sky high black booties of some sort. You can also tone down the "party vibe" of a sequined clothing by pairing it up with lace or chiffon fabric.

Like wearing the black sequined shorts with a white chiffon blouse or a peachy long sleeved sheer blouse. Then wearing a feminine pair of heels or sandals with a dainty color like peach, gold, white or a light brown.

Spending all day on polyvore is my happiness. It's like window shopping and I don't even have to leave the house! :)
