Hey there! Unfortunately I haven't received any comments to the question of where do you shop? So I will not be able to have a question part of this post. However, feel free to type your answer right now because I can find you super cute outfits! So let's start off with the outfit of the week.
Outfit of the Week: A high waisted skirt with a solid tank top or V neck with leggings and short Uggs. This is a preppy and girly outfit that's totally chic.
Hairstyle of the Week: Put it back with a girly headband. Try the ones with cute little bows or patterns. This looks good with wavy, curly, or straight hair. Straight hair looks the most put together while curly and wavy hair looks girly and cute.
Accessory of the Week: Headbands. They have really cute ones at Forever 21 and Forever, Forever 21's accessory store. The ones with bows or patterns look the cutest.
Make-up product: Blush. Get perfectly flushed cheeks with Maybelline Blush. They also have great blush at MAC. They have tons of colors and you'll be able to find one that looks good with your skin tone and it stays on all day!
Product of the Week: http://www.abercrombie.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&catalogId=10901&productId=675081&langId=-1&categoryId=13058
This skirt from Abercrombie is chic and girly and looks great with leggings and Uggs but it's still casual. Perfect for the outfit of the week.
Shoe of the Week: Short Uggs. They look great with leggings, jeans, even sweatpants. I have the chestnut ones and I love them.
What not to wear: Knee high converse. They kind of remind me of those knee high socks and honestly? No sneaker should be more than two inches above the ankle. It just looks bad.
For my thanksgiving outfit: I'm wearing jeans (dark wash, of course) with an adorable floral print tank top (however, the floral print is larger and it has a fading color look that is in so it's not too springy) and a dark blue cardigan. I'm also wearing my knit grey cardy Uggs. Hope you all have a happy thanksgiving!
Everyone, please please please answer the question: where do you shop? If by the next post I still have no answers I'll do a different question, but it would be greatly appreciated if you answer. Also, if someone needs individual help on selecting an outfit for an occasion, I will gladly help you.
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Weekly Posts Again!
Hey! So I'm going to post more like once or maybe even twice a week I'm sorry I didn't post for so long!! I've got some great new trends to post in the next few posts and I'm adding some new sections.
Outfit of the Week: Dark wash skinny jeans (a classic) with a tank top (they've got some on sale at Pink and they have them in lots of colors!) and a hoodie (they have cute hoodies at Hollister.) This is a very casual outfit so if you're a little more preppy then this might be more of weekend wear to you. For others this is a great outfit to wear to school
Hairstyle of the Week: Glossy, shiny, and frizz-free. Here are some tips on how:
~ Use Garnier Fructis Glossing Spray. It makes my hair shiny and completely frizz free
~ Leave-in Conditioner. It adds extra nutrients to your hair which boosts up the shine. I like John Frieda Collection Frizz Ease Leave in Conditioner Spray
~ Hello Hydration Shampoo and Conditioner also gives hair the nutrients it needs to be beautiful. It's what I use and it really works
~ If you rinse with cold water it seals shine inside the hair cuticle so always rinse shampoo and conditioner out with cold
~ If you skip a day before washing your hair again it lets the natural oils in your hair add shine (I don't mean skip a shower. You should take a shower (obviously) just don't wash your hair everyday. Also, if you have very thin hair that gets greasy easily then you might not want to do this but if you have thick or medium thick hair you should)
Accessory of the Week: Layered bracelets or thin bangles. These look cute and add some pop to a plain outfit and they also make a little jingling sound every time you move your wrist. Adorable!
Makeup of the Week: This is one of the new sections. Each week I'll post a makeup product that I love and what makes it so great. Revlon eyeliner pencil - it comes on really easily, it's waterproof, and never smudges. Tip: Putting eyeliner on both your bottom and top lid makes your eyes look bigger and rounder.
Item of the Week:(In this section I'll include one article of clothing per week and say why it's so great.) http://www.hollisterco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10251&catalogId=10201&productId=712662&langId=-1&categoryId=12631&parentCategoryId=12552&colorSequence=02
This pullover hoodie from Hollister is great because it's warm but not bulky, comfy, can be worn with jeans and a tank top (classic) and it comes in 15 different colors.
Shoe of the Week: (This is kind of a given but I'll post a different shoe each week and say why it's so great and list a couple ways to wear it. Usually it will also be in the outfit of the week too. This weeks shoe is: Ugg knit cardy.http://www.uggaustralia.com/ProductDetails.aspx?gID=w&productID=5819&model=Classic%20Cardy Note: In the picture on the website they are all the way up but I would reccomend to always roll them down because it looks a lot better. I just got them in grey and I totally love them! They are super cute and can be casual, girly, trendy, or whatever your style is. They look great with skinny jeans, leggings, skirts, or even dresses but personally I like them best with skinny jeans. They also work well with different colors of skinny jeans (like pastels) except grey of course.
What not to wear: Jumpsuits. They make you look lanky and kind of remind me of those guys on stilts. They are - in a word - unflattering.
This week I am asking the question where do you shop? Please name a couple stores and I'll find an item or maybe even an outfit from those stores.
Be sure to comment! I'd love to here from you!

November
Omigosh so hard to believe it's already November! (Sorry I kind of abandoned this blog a while ago but today I was bored so I decided to check up on it. I'll start it up again now)
First off, thanks for all your comments. Much appreciated
Outfit of the Month: Try dark wash jeans (a fall classic. You can get these almost anywhere) with suede boots (these were a trend last year and are back again) and a solid henley with a cute tank top underneath
Try a solid V-neck (those never seem to go out of style) or a tank top and pair it with a high waisted girly skirt. Wear with leggings and short Uggs. This is fairly preppy (where I live at least) and super duper cute
Instead of doing a hairstyle of the month I am going to post a hair style for each of you that commented that I think will go with your hair type.
Very thick hair: Do you know how many people want thick hair? Own it! You can try braids or clip part of it up. My friend has very thick hair and these styles look great on her.
Dirty blond hair that's straight as a pin: Lucky! Straight hair looks so good that half the people at my school spend half an hour straightening theirs every morning. I always like it when people with straight hair clip part of it up. Also, have you considered getting side bangs? It sounds like they would look very good! Have you tried the Dangerously Straight shampoo and conditioner from Herbal Essences? It works really well.
Straight brown hair (two people said this so I'm adding two styles): Try a messy bun! You can also pair this with a cute headband! If your hair is thin, this can add volume. Also for thin hair: Try volumizing shampoo. I love the kind from herbal essences. Another style idea would be a fishtail braid but this only works for very thin hair. It looks adorable though!
Accessory of the month: HATS! Particularly knit hats look great over curly or wavy hair. I'm not really sure what it is but they have a way of making hair look glossier and fuller.
What not to wear: Shirt-on-shirts. I'm not talking about camis I'm talking about having a long sleeve shirt under a short sleeve shirt (ewwww.) Wearing this will make you look like your five so don't do it!
I promised you an alternative to a hot oil treatment that you could do at home (and I've tried it and it really works!) and here it is: Mix two part conola oil with one part hot water and apply to your hair as you would shampoo. Leave the mixture on for five minutes and then shampoo out. This can last anywhere from a couple days to two weeks, depending on your hair thickness.
Next month I'm gonna talk more about products for making your hair more shiny, glossy, and frizz-free. I'll recommend some more products for you to use and little tricks to help you achieve better hair. I'm also going to include some cute and comfy weekend wear (sweats, yoga pants, etc.)

Now for this posts question: Where do you shop? You can use a few examples and I'll find outfits from those shops and post them. Also, do any of you have a polyvore account? If you do, please post your username so I can add you (I just got one) and I'm think of making a group called "Trends to Try". What do you think? I'm also happy to take suggestions on how to make this blog better anytime (keep it nice constructive criticism of course)
