The Hunger Games!!!!

Oh The Hunger Games! How I ADORE  The Hunger Games! They're so much better than the Twilight series, but then again not quite as spectacular as Harry Potter (but then again, what is?)! I really wanted to go see the movie at midnight but I was unable to so instead I'm going today. I can't wait!! But if I DID go at midnight, this is my ideal outfit, hehe!

 

Bake You Pies V-Neck - districtlines.com

Aha. This shirt is a line from a youtube video parodying The Hunger Games. It's too funny. Really.

 

China Glaze Capitol Colors in Electrify - ulta.com

Oh man. I want this bad boy sooooo bad. The color is FANTABULOUS! Or so it appears. I'm sure it's even better in person! 

That would be my ideal outfit paired with some skinny jeans and maybe some flats or sandals. I can't wait to see it! 

Have any of you readers seen it? Please, feel free to comment and share your thoughts! ;)

Changes.

Hello lovelies.

I have recently made a few changes to my blog. Since I haven't done a very swell job keeping up with what I originally wanted this blog to be about, I decided to change it. I didn't want to keep going on saying it was a "blog to help teenage girls find whats hot in fashion for less" even though that's what I originally intended. But that's ok! I'll still do posts on fashion related things, just thing I like - my style. Stari Style ;) I hope my readers keep reading, but if you don't I understand. Here's to a new start! :)

Feelin' Blue

I found this nice blue polish on sale at Walgreens for $1! Yay! It's a brand I've never tried before, Sinful Colors. I used the shade Why Not. The polish comes out darker than on the Walgreens site, as you can see below. I really liked this blue and it WASN'T GLITTERY SHIMMERY OR SPARKLY. I KNOW, RIGHT? It's so pretty though :D

Ooh, ahh... nice, right? I love them! So much!

*Sparkle Sparkle*

So I got a pretty cool new glittery top coat recently (shocker, right?), Pure Ice Cheatin. The polish itself is clear but it has LOTS of little purple glitters and the occasional blue glitters. It's fan-tab-u-lous! <3

 

Because I wanted my nails to be more purpley than blue I used Sally Hansen Purple Potion.But another day I'll try it over my Sally Hansen Blue It for a more blue effect.But ya it's pretty glittery and sparkly and gorgeous and I paint my nails way too much, hehe :)

I'm Obsessed - Divine Swine

Hello Fashionistas! 

I'm finally doing a post on my favorite glitter polish, Divine Swine by OPI!!!

AMAZING, RIGHT?!?!? Well actually I don't think the pictures do it any kind of justice... I used either two or three coats of Divine Swine over one coat of Wet n' Wild Frosted Fuchsia. It is so glittery it's ridiculous. It's like, blinding on a bright day. It's probably the greatest thing ever. Pictures will never be able to do it justice so why don't you do yourself a favor and go buy it and paint your nails? ;)

I Have Little Watermelons For Toes.

Buenos dias/tardes/noches Fashionistas! 

The other day I guess I was missing the wonderful warm weather and bright colors of summer because I painted my toes like watermelons! <3

 

TAH-DUMMM!! 

I used Wet n' Wild Dream Poppy for the pink and Pure Ice Wild Thing and some plain black nail polish, a black sharpie would work too! and a clear top coat. I did two coats each of the pink and green. :)

I LOVE MY TOES!!!

My favorites are probably Electrify, Riveting, Harvest Moon, Smoke and Ashes, and Stone Cold. They're all so fabulous!!! 

But I gotta get me some Electrify. I think it will go well with the Bake You Pies shirt I plan on buying for the occasion xD

Anyways, so which colors do you plan on buying? Ulta and Sally Beauty Supply should be selling them for around $7 a pop.

Do Me A Favor, Lovies?

Hey again Fashionistas!

I really want you guys to check out this video because this girl is AMAZING! She's talented not only with playing guitar but also she has a beautiful voice! She's one of my bestest friends and she wrote this song (with some help ;) And it's totes preshhh. It's adorable. It's fantabulous to the infinite degree! So by all means, watch it and share it and love it! 

Now try to get this cute tune out of your head. Seriously. It's been stuck in my head since likee, summertime. And now I can't go anywhere and see red n' white converse or a guy with blue eyes and brown hair without thinking of this song. 

So watch it a few times, sing along, and share with all your friends! :) <3

Shoppin At Ross

Hey Fashionistas! 

I don't know about you guys but I like to shop at this store called Ross because they have clothes for a lot cheaper than other places. Basically they buy clothes (and other things!) from retailers for cheap because they either had an over stock, things are now out of season, or other various reasons. A lot of times you can find super cute things for cheap! So I thought I'd share some of my favorite finds!

  

I got this green v-neck for about $6. It's all see-through so I have to wear a cami underneath. But It's pretty cute and casual! It has cute little stars all over it too as you can see in the close-up! :)

I like to think of this shirt as my princess shirt because of the poofy sleeves ;) It's a grayish-purple burnout shirt (like the star one above) and it has a pretty floral pattern but you can't really see it in pictures.. but I paid $7 for it!

I probably paid somewhere around $10 for this drapey sweater (?) thingy. Although it's not really a sweater, but I don't know really what to call it but I LOVE it! I love the gray and black stripes and it looks super great with a plain solid cami underneath, like pink or blue! :)

EEEEEEKKK! I love these shoes! They are Steve Madden ballet flats with a leopard print and peep toes and a big black bow! And they are shiny and pretty! <3 I also paid $9 for them! $9!!!

I got this faux-leather bomber jacket for $20. It's so awesome! And warm!

 

I also got this really pretty cream coat/jacket. I've always loved white coats! It also has pretty ruffles on the back and it was only $15! And like the bomber above, I got them both in the summer, so they were pretty cheap!

Funny story about this one.. I went out of town for Thanksgiving but forgot to bring a coat! It was supposed to be cold! :O So I took a quick trip to Ross and picked up this jacket. It's so cute and plaid on the outside but the ENTIRE inside is all faux-fur! IT'S SO FLUFFYYYYYY!!! And very warm. <3

So those are my favorite things I've bought at Ross! But they usually have a good selection of different things like clothes, shoes, dresses, toys, house stuff, electronic accessories, purses, wallets... I could go on and on. 

Hope you enjoy shopping as much as I do!

But then paint them like how I did. seriously. It's MeSmErIzInG O_o
