Request && Audition!

Heyyyyyyo !
It's riiicooo !
Just kidding.
It's Allison.
I've been watching too much Hannah Montana lately. ^.^
 
Anyhoooo. Who is as in love with "Red" as I am?! AH! It's amazing, flawless, perfection. I'm gonna do a song by song review, and also let you know which ones are my favorite :) Comment your favorites and your opinions below!
 
O1: State Of Grace.
// "And I never saw you coming, and I'll never be the same." // ♥
 
This song is so cool -- it's a totally different sound for Taylor. It reminds me of bands like Imagine Dragons and Coldplay. I really like how she used her voice in this one. It's super unique and the song in itself is breathtaking.
 
O2: Red.
// "Loving him is like trying to change your mind when you're already falling through the free fall." // ♥
 
Being the title song for the album, you expect this song to be one of the / best / on the album. And ladies.. it sure is. It's literally / flawless. / One of my favorites, for sure. It still has some country twang in there with some of her new sound as well.
 
O3: Treacherous.
// "This slope is treacherous, and i, i, i, like it." // ♥
 
This song is so peaceful and beautiful. It's a stunning love song that really captures the whole picture of love. It's hard, and it takes effort and passion, but it's worth it.
 
O4: I Knew You Were Trouble.
// "I guess you didn't care, and I guess I liked that. When I fell hard, you took a step back, without me." // ♥
 
This song is / nothing / like any of Taylor's old stuff. There's even a bit of dubstep in the chorus. But for some reason... I love it. Something about this song just gets to you and you cant stop listening to it.
 
O5: All Too Well.
// "Cause' here we are again in the middle of the night, dancing round' the kitchen in the refrigerator light. Down the stairs, I was there, I remember it, all too well." // ♥
 
This one is a lot slower than most of the songs on her album. It describes how a couple is still heartbroken after they broke up, and are trying to move on, but it's hard because they are still holding on too the amazing memories they had with each other. Just like all of Taylor's songs, you can relate to it. Many girls have gone through heartbreak like that, and this song describes it perfectly.
 
O6: 22.
// "It feels like a perfect night to dress up like hipsters, and make fun of our ex's." // ♥
 
I'm still not sure how I feel about this song, haha. It's cute, and I think it describes Taylor really well. You never really hear her sing about going out and just having fun, so it's cool to hear that in one of her songs. This ones super catchy and upbeat, I think it's one of those you either love or don't.
 
O7: I Almost Do.
// "I bet it never, ever occurred to you, that I can't say 'hello' to you and risk another goodbye." // ♥
 
This song is also, surprise surprise, about a couple who broke up and the girl is having troubles moving on. It's about her longing to tell him she's still in love with him, and she has a hard time trying not to tell him, and she's tried to call him many times. It's a beautiful song and has a lot of her old style in it.
 
O8: We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.
// "Then you come around again and say: 'Baby, I miss you and I swear I'm gonna change.'" // ♥
 
Ahhh, I think everyone on the planet knows this song. I used to love it, and I guess I still do.. but it's so repetitive and catchy that I have a hard time listening to it sometimes. You either love it, or hate it! It's my four year old sisters favorite, haha :)
 
O9: Stay, Stay, Stay.
// "That's when you came in wearing a football helmet and said: 'Okay, let's talk.'" // ♥
 
THIS SONG IS SO CUTE. ASLKfsflghkflkgh. You guys', omg, so cute so cute SO FLIPPING CUTE. Defffff one of my favorites. She's singing about a guy who has treated her well, put up with her, and still loves her after she does something wrong or gets mad. I adore this song. So. Much. alkdhgs.
 
1O: The Last Time. ft. Gary Lightheart.
// "You wear your best apology, but I was there to watch you leave." // ♥
 
The first time I heard this song, I was speechless. I dropped everything to listen to it. Stuck my headphones in and blasted it. I have no words for this song except: UTTERLY FLAWLESS. By far my favorite on the album. It's so beautiful, like, aklghs. It left me in tears the first time I listened to it. It's that good.
 
11. Holy Ground.
// "Darling it was good, never looking down. Right there where we stood is holy ground." // ♥
 
This song is really cool. I love the tempo and the lyrics, it's great. I actually like running to it, it's the perfect pace and type of song for that. It describes how she felt like she was on top of the world when they were together, but she's not heartbroken, she's just grateful that it happened.
 
12: Sad, Beautiful, Tragic.
// "Cause we had, a beautiful, magic, love affair." // ♥
 
This song, to me, is a lullaby. I listen to it when I'm falling asleep. It has a beautiful melody, and the lyrics are amazing. She has such a good way with words and telling a story. Yes, it's another breakup song.. what else do you expect from her?!(;
 
13: The Lucky One.
// "You took your money and your dignity and got the h e l l out." // ♥
 
I absolutely adore this song. It tells the story of a teen celebrity who just wanted fame, she wanted to be the girl that everyone admired. But she didn't like it when she got it, so she packed up, took her dignity, and left. She then sings about how she herself is in that place, and how sometimes she longs to be the girl who left, but she knows she's lucky to be in the place she's in. It's an amazing story, and an amazing song.
 
14. Everything Has Changed. ft. Ed Sheeran.
// "All I know is you held the door, and your eyes look like coming home, oh." // ♥
 
ALKDSHGLSKDFHG. No. Words. Ed Sheeran & Taylor Swift in the same song?! Say it ain't so! You guys, it's amazing. So perfect. In every way. I squealed when I heard it first and kept hitting replay, replay, replay. So gooooooooood.
 
15. Starlight.
// "We snuck into a yacht club party, pretending to be a duchess, and a prince." // ♥
 
I llooovveee love love LOVE this song. It's one of those feel good, dance around your room in your pajamas singing into your hairbrush, type of song. It talks about dreams and feeling like you're on top of the world. You can just imagine the setting that this song describes, and it just gives you a warm feeling. It's sooo perrffff.
 
16: Begin Again.
// "I've been spending the last eight months thinkin' all love ever does is break, and burn, and end." // ♥
 
I'm sure most of you have heard this song, too, since it was also a single for this album. I fell in love with it the first time I heard it, and I still do. I love how she sings about finally moving on and starting over. Getting that feeling that makes you forget about the heartbreak you were feeling before you met the person. It's a beautiful concept. I love how she compares how the guy is so different then her ex, and how she realizes that love isn't just a tragedy. The song is f l a w l e s s.
 
~ ~ ~
 
That's all the songs!
 
My favorites are:
"The Last Time" & "Stay, Stay, Stay" & "Starlight."
 
Tell me your favorites and your opinions on the album in the comments!
 
xxx,
Allison. ♥

So I had a few questions about boy related things, so I thought I would answer that in one Set.♥
 
HOW TO COMPLIMENT HIM ♥♥
{requested by; @lolitsmolly, thanks }
 
Want to compliment a guy with a line that’ll leave him with a wide grin and an instant attraction towards you, just use these 25 compliments for guys.
 
It’s easy to make a guy fall for you or make him feel more affectionate towards you.
 
All you need to do is compliment him with the appropriate line at the appropriate time.
 
Compliments make girls feel good about themselves.
 
But to a guy, it does more than that.
 
It leaves him thinking of you and your compliment for a long time.
 
Compliments for guys and why they work
 
Compliments make anyone feel happy.
 
But when you’re a guy, you don’t get complimented too often.
 
Men may crave for compliments, but that’s not because they’re needy or attention seeking.
 
It’s because they hardly ever get complimented.
 
Guy friends don’t usually compliment each other unless they’re playing an aggressive brute game, and women friends only compliment a guy in a flirty way when he’s treating them like he has a crush on them.
 
So when you say something nice to a guy now and then, be it a friend you like or your new boyfriend, he’ll definitely remember it and feel more appreciated too.
 
25 compliements that always work (:
The best way to compliment a guy is by acknowledging his traits or manly behavior. While telling a guy that he looks good can make him feel awkward and yet good about himself, there are many more things that’ll make him feel even better.
 
Here are 25 traits of a man that you could compliment, and he’ll remember you and your compliment with fond adoration.
 
#1 Advice. Ask a guy for advice and thank him for it. Guys love suggesting solutions when a pretty girl asks for help. A line like “I can always count on you for the best advice” with a cute and flirty wink will make him feel six inches taller!
 
#2 Charm and speaking abilities. Is your boyfriend a nice conversationalist? Then compliment him about it instead of just watching him in awe. “All my friends love you, they think you’re such a great guy to hang out with” is a line that’ll make him beam with pride.
 
#3 Driving skills. Every guy thinks he’s a better driver than those guys on the F1 circuit. The next time he’s driving you around town, use a smooth swerve in the car to compliment him for his classy driving skills.
 
#4 His physique. Guys spend a lot of time trying to look better for the ladies. Well, at least most guys do. One of the best ways to appreciate a guy sexually without overdoing it is by complimenting his physique. Don’t be vague. Get specific in your compliments, be it his guns or his well rounded shoulders.
 
#5 When other women check him out. Walking down a street with your man? Don’t hate him or dig your nails into his arm if other women check him out. Instead, point it out. He’ll enjoy your compliment when you say that you feel lucky to be in his arms.
 
#6 His bar skills. This isn’t about law school, but about his refined taste in liquor. If the guy you’re with knows his drink well or if he suggests drinks or combinations that taste great, compliment him about it.
 
#7 His dreams and ambitions. Guys make big plans from a very young age. Talk about his dreams with him, and if you find his castles in the sky really fascinating, compliment him about his vision. He’ll feel closer for having shared his dream with you and like you a lot more because you appreciate his dreams.
 
#8 Sense of humor. Every guy knows that girls dig humor. And so they spend a lot of time trying to get better at being funny. If you’re dating a guy who makes your pee your shorts, make sure you place your hand on his cheek, look at him sideways and compliment him about his sense of humor.
 
#9 His ability in bed. Is your man great in bed? If he is, don’t stop telling him about it. The more you compliment his sexy abilities in bed, the more adventurous and sexy he’ll become in bed. And that’s good news for both of you.
 
#10 His chivalry. Did he hold the door open for you? Or did he just step aside so you could enter the elevator first? Flash your cutest smile and compliment him for his chivalry. He’ll love the fact that you noticed his good manners.
 
#11 Protective instincts. Evolution has trained men to protect women. If you say something like “I always feel safe around you” when you’re walking down a street late at night, his chest will swell and he’ll feel really proud of himself.
 
#12 His bond with his friends. The male bond between guy friends may be hard for girls to understand. But nevertheless, if he has a great bunch of friends with whom he’s really close, try your best to get along with them. And later, tell your man just how nice his friends were. He’ll love it, especially when he thinks his friends are a reflection of himself.
 
#13 His work. Is this guy a workaholic? Or is he a slacker who always finds ways to complete his work on time? Hearing you say “I love what you do, it’s so meaningful…” will make him feel as appreciated as a promotion.
 
#14 His strength. Ask him to open a tight jar. Or ask him to help you carry a big bag up a flight of stairs. And when he’s all glistening with sweat, compliment him about his awesome superman strength.
 
#15 The way it feels when he’s inside you. “God, you’re so big it’s hurting me” will make him swell even more. Guys like to know they’re making a big impact when they enter a girl. If he’s making just the right kind of impact when he’s going in, make sure you let him know everything you feel.
 
#16 His brains. Are you dating a smart guy or a guy who seems to have the perfect answer for anything? Compliment his knowledgeable side and let him know just how awesome he is. A smart guy would love to know that you appreciate him for his brains too.
 
#17 A good long stare. Stare at him like you want to eat him up when he walks up to you. Even if you don’t say anything, he’ll know exactly what’s on your mind. And he may even blush or feel happily awkward about it!
 
#18 His clothes. You may be helping him pick out his wardrobe, but when he comes out to meet you looking like a gorgeous mannequin on the move, go right ahead and compliment him about it. It’ll make him feel really good too. Guys don’t get too many compliments about the way they look. After all, his guy friends just won’t walk up to him and say “hey, you look good today!” So compliment his appearance and he’ll never forget it.
 
#19 His principles. A man of principles is a great catch. So if you’re dating a guy who holds his moral principles firm and close, say something nice about it. “You know, I’ve never met a guy who’s as just as you. You’re such a man of principles” will definitely make him feel proud.
 
#20 His tastes and choices. Is your guy a refined gentleman with impeccable taste or preferences? If you like the way his place looks or if you like his movie collection, compliment him about it and make him feel special.
 
#21 Compare him to a famous celebrity. Now don’t go comparing your guy’s appearance to the best looking celebrity of the year in the world because he’ll assume you’re just trying to flatter him *unless he does look that hot*. Instead, compare his traits or personality with a really good character in a movie or even a celebrity. It’ll seem more believable, and he’ll appreciate it a lot more.
 
#22 Ask for his help. You need him. You’re so helpless without him. And that’ll make him fall harder for you. Ask him to help you with something that you know he’s good at. If he enjoys it, he would be able to please you and have fun at the same time. You’d feel good about it, and he’ll definitely feel good about it too.
 
#23 Boast about him. Speak highly of him in front of his friends or your family. He may behave like he’s embarrassed about the flattery, but secretly, he’d love the fact that you’re speaking so highly of him.
 
#24 Compliment his voice. Compliment his voice, especially in bed. Does your man have a deep baritone that gives you happy gooseflesh when he whispers in your ears? Compliment his voice and he’ll remember your words every time he says a word.
 
#25 His leisure skills. A guy participates in many leisure activities to feel relaxed and rejuvenate. Some guys like playing on the Xbox while others like indulging in an outdoor sport. It may be a leisure activity, but it’s something all guys take pride in.
 
When you watch him play, cheer for him and tell him just how awesome he is at the game. He’ll love the fact that you appreciate his games instead of telling him to avoid it and spend time with you.
 
I hope this helped ♥
 
HOW TO SEND SIGNALS THAT YOU LIKE HIM ♥♥
requested by; @gothickittie, thanks (:
 
Telling a guy that you are interested in him can be extremely difficult. No one ever wants to put all their cards on the table to, only then, get rejected. So instead, here is a how-to guide on giving your crush signs that you like him.
 
Enter his social circle. By entering someone's social circle, it becomes easier to spend more time with them. This will give you two a chance to grow comfortable together.
 
Give him a comparison. By spending more time with him, he can pick up on how you act differently around other people that you are not interested in. This will make it easier to see that you only act flirtatious with him.
 
Show interest in his likes and dislikes. By becoming interested in his favorite things, you are signaling that you two are compatible. This creates a mutual feeling of like-mindedness that is associated relationships.
 
Praise him and compare him to other men. Compliment the qualities about him that you like and don't be shy to compare him to other men. Show him that in your mind, he is "different" from other guys you know. Flirting with other guys is a way to show that others find you desirable (and that he should too), but don't this can also send mixed messages that you are flirtatious with everyone. So follow up flirting with other men by clarify why you would much rather be with someone more like him.
 
Example: "That guys was really great, but I would never date him. I think I much prefer a guy with a great sense of humor--like you."
 
Use the right body language. This is a subconscious way to flirt with him and display interest without having to verbally express yourself, which can be hard. All of the following body gestures display interest but have subtle difference in what they are attempting to subconsciously provoke.
Direct eye contact shows that you are listening. This is a direct way to show that you are genuinely interested not only in the conversation but also in him.
Slowly nodding while you are listening says that you "agree" with what he is saying. This signals that you are "compatible" in the way you think, and that you two would likely be compatible in a relationship.
Moistening or parting lips draws attention to your lips. This subconsciously implies you are preparing to kiss the other person--showing interest.
Looking sideways and upward creates an illusion of "doe" eyes. These signal vulnerability and interest in the conversation.
Feet pointed straight at the other person is a natural display of interest in him. This direct stance implies a lack of interests in everything else around the other person.
Legs crossed "into" him is showing a subtle interest in only him and that you are closing your legs ("self") off from other things.
Sitting or standing closely (0-18inches) sets an intimate space between the two people. This implies that it is more than just a casual conversation, but in fact you are sharing intimate details with him.
Mirroring implies "compatibility." By mirroring his gestures you are encouraging a mutual feeling of trust in what both of you are saying.
Preening or grooming yourself, shows a desire to look presentable to the other person.
Frequent touching evokes a sensory feelings between two people. This is a strong showing of interest in the other person.
 
Tell him how you feel. This is the hardest thing to do because people are often scared of rejection. Being direct, however, is the best way to create a conversation about your feelings for each other. By saying "I like you," he will be forced to confront how he feels about you. While you might not hear what you want, at least you will clear up any confusion that exists.
 
Tips;
Try leaving anonymous love notes for him(or her) in a good spot.
Never say "I hate you."
Try to be really nice and fun.
Invite him (or her) over to do something fun, or invite him (or her) to your birthday.
 
I hope I helped (:
 
THINGS TO TALK ABOUT WITH YOUR BOYFRIEND ♥♥
@iva99 thanks (:
 
Don’t know what to say when you’re spending time with him? Use these perfect things to talk about with your boyfriend when you have nothing to say.
 
Conversations can be a difficult task, at least in new relationships.
 
Both of you may be excited to talk to each other, but may hold back your thoughts because you don’t really know what to talk about.
 
On the other hand, even seasoned relationships can go through this ordeal now and then when you feel like both of you have exhausted all things interesting to talk about.
 
if you’re in a new relationship with your boyfriend, and want to awe him with your conversation skills and help him open up to you, look no further than this.
 
Things to talk about with your boyfriend
 
If you’re having a hard time coming up with things to talk about with your boyfriend, in person or over the phone, learn to relax.
 
You’re not alone.
 
You may have many things to talk about with your new man, but as both of you don’t know each other too well just yet, you may be confused over the right things to talk about.
 
But almost always, there are a few things that connect all guys together. Just keep them in mind and your conversations with your new man will be a lot easier than you can imagine.
 
10 conversation tips to use with your boyfriend
 
Firstly, there’s something you need to remember. Silence is not a bad thing. Don’t feel awkward or shuffle your toes when both of you aren’t talking. Just take a few calm, deep breaths and relax.
 
At times, silence can be a perfect thing to help both of you fall more in love with each other. After all, silence in a conversation is the best sign to show that both of you feel really comfortable with each other and don’t need a constant barrage of words to feel at ease in each other’s company.
 
Initially, it may be hard to avoid feeling uncomfortable when there’s silence because of the constant eagerness to prove that you’re great company. The awkwardness could also be accentuated because of the sexual tension. But over time, you’ll learn to feel relaxed around each other.
 
But for starters, use these tips given below while spending time with your boyfriend. By using these 10 tips, you can have better conversations with your boyfriend, get along better with him and make him realize how smart you are, all at once.
 
#1 Questions to get to know him. At times, as corny as a list of questions may sound, they can be your perfect solution to a dry spell of conversations. Even if both of you have emailed each other the answers, you can remember a few of his shocking or hilarious answers and talk about it when both of you meet each other. It’ll reveal a lot of details and bring both of you really close in just one conversation.
 
#2 Current affairs. Random bits of gossip and news are always great things to talk about. Have you been watching the news lately? Or perhaps, some celebrity dirt that both of you are interested about? There’s always something interesting to talk about when it comes to things happening around the world.
 
Talking about current news that interest you can help both of you get to know each other’s likes and dislikes better. And at the same time, it can lead to intellectual debates or expressions that can make your boyfriend realize how smart you are.
 
#3 Ask for advice. Guys just love giving advice to people. They always think they have the answers to everything. If you want to bond better with your new boyfriend, ask him for some help, be it about your work life or an issue that’s more personal. He’ll appreciate you a lot more because he’ll feel more dependable and better about himself.
 
#4 Talk about his day. At the beginning of a new relationship, everything’s new and fascinating because both of you are trying to know more about each other’s lives. The best way to get to know him better is by talking about his day, every day. When both of you know about each other’s lives, you’ll feel more connected to each other. And one conversation will usually end up leading to many other conversations.
 
#5 His passion and hobbies. Does your boyfriend have any hobbies or passions that he likes to pursue when he’s got time to spare? Find out about them and seem genuinely interested in knowing more about it. When your boyfriend sees that you’re interested in his passions, he’ll be more excited to spend time with you and talk to you.
 
#6 His ambitions. What are his dreams and what does he want to do in life? Guys love talking about their dreams. Ask him about his dreams, and give your suggestions and pointers on how he can achieve it.
 
If both of you connect better over these conversations and he feels like you offer a lot of valuable suggestions, he’ll start to depend more on you and look up to you for advice and help in his own life.
 
#7 Naughty things. This is something that all guys enjoy, and your boyfriend would love a naughty conversation too. You don’t need to get too racy and bold during your very first naughty conversation if you don’t want to. But whenever you feel like the time is appropriate, ask him a few naughty questions about his fantasies or what he thinks of you sexually. It’ll turn both of you on, even if you’re just texting each other and learning more about each other.
LOL
 
#8 His friends. Guys almost always have a good bond with their friends. Ask him about his friends and find about more about all of them. He’ll enjoy sharing his funny stories with you and at the same time, you can get to know more about all his friends too.
 
And the next time you meet his friends, remember the stories and talk about it. His friends will enjoy your company, and your boyfriend will beam with pride for having caught such a fine catch as you.
 
#9 Games and cars. Now this may be one of these clichés, but most guys are passionate about games or some mode of transportation. Is your boyfriend a fan of any games? Does he love spending time playing games at home? Find out more about his interests when it comes to games and cars, and if you find something in common, both of you will have a lot of common interests to talk about and bond over.
 
#10 Your perspective. Use these same questions and add your own perspectives to them. While you’re asking your boyfriend more questions about him, tell him more about yourself too. In a new relationship, it’s very important for both partners to test their compatibilities as early as possible.
 
By adding your pointers and views to the questions you ask, it’ll give you a lot more to talk about and help him get to know you and your intellectual capabilities better too. After all, great looks may snag you a man. But you do need more than just looks to make a man fall madly in love with you.

by Janina {@thebestcookbook}
 
what you will need;
Base Coat
Dark nail polish for base color
Light color for base of nebula
Two to three bright nail polish colors to create nebulae
Cosmetic sponge
Piece of paper
Glitter polish
Top coat
 
what to do? (:
APPLY BACKGROUND COLOR AND FIRST NEBULA'S HIGHLIGHT
Using a dark shade, preferably a deep blue or black, apply one or two coats of nail polish on top of your base coat to serve as the base color of your space design. Then sponge on your first layer of light color (we used a pale green) in thin layers and allow to dry. This serves as a starting highlight in the background of your nebula.
 
CREATE THE NEBULAE
Use a sponge to lightly dab a thin layer of a bright color (we chose pink) onto the base of your nebula. If you get too much polish on the sponge, just dab it off on the paper. Wait one to two minutes between each application so that the colors can dry. When you put another coat on top of a color, the lacquers re-activate and are easier to blend because the layers are wet again. Repeat process with as many colors as you want.
 
ADD GLITTER AND TOP COAT
Add stars by applying one or two coats of a glitter polish on top of your design. We suggest using a nail polish that contains different size glitter to give the illusion of dimension and distance. To make sure your new space-age manicure will last, apply a top coat and you’re ready to blast off!

Anything & Everything!

Hello, this is Janina ♥

Shoot from the Shoulder
Whether you're using your camera or smartphone, you don't want to have it in the frame. Instead, hold it away from you at shoulder level and twist your body toward it, pushing your opposite shoulder toward the camera. Then crop the arm that's holding the camera out of the pic.
 
Follow the Rule of Thirds
This is a little photography secret that most professionals use. Start by mentally dividing the frame into thirds: Instead of being in the middle of a picture, put yourself off-center, so that you either fall in the first 1/3 or 2/3 of the frame. It makes the shot look more interesting.
 
Get Other Stuff Into the Shot
On a gorgeous beach? Get the water behind you. At a cool concert? Shoot the stage in the background. Just like the rule of thirds, scenery makes the shot look more interesting (and not like you're just shooting yourself at home because you're bored). And when it's more interesting, people will eyeball it longer...
 
Tilt Your Head
People generally look better when they're not looking dead-on at the camera. It's better to have a slight turn of your head or a slight angle, so tilt your head down a little and angle your eyes up toward the camera.
 
Angle Your Bod
If you want your full body in the frame, always tilt your hip, put one leg on tiptoe, or shift around to get a slightly off-balance pose—it visually slims your bod and makes it look sexier.
 
Think Outside the Box
You don't always have to have your face in the frame for a hot pic. If you want a shot of yourself laying on the beach, a la Heidi, bend your legs like she did. The move flattens your stomach and keeps your legs from looking distorted. You can also take it up a notch by angling your hips to the side a little.
 
Use Flattering Light
Shooting outdoors? Avoid taking a pic between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.—the midday sun is harsh and will show off whatever tiny imperfections you might have. The best light is in the morning or around sunset—the orangey glow makes everything look better.

♦ How to shop ;
 
This style is really popular right now, so you can find different indie // hipster pieces at almost any store. But if you want the whole "vintage hipster" look, thrifting is the way to go.
 
♦ What to look for ;
 
+* FLORAL. ~
 
Lots & lots of floral! Mainly skirts // dresses, because they're easiest to style, but really anything. You can wear it with any solid colors, neutral colors work best though.
 
+* CARDIGANS. ~
 
Loose // baggy ones are the typical cardigans you see in this style. You can wear thin ones as well, whatever you feel comfortable in.
 
+* TIGHTS. ~
 
Opaque, polka dots, flowers.. black.
 
+* HEADBANDS. ~
 
Braided, bandanas, bows..
 
+* MOCCASINS, LOAFERS, COMBAT BOOTS. ~
 
I think that explains that :)
 
♦ What to keep in mind ;
 
+* LAYERS. ~
 
Coats, socks, cardigans, denim..
 
+* HAIR. ~
 
Be unique!
 
+* STAY TRUE TO YOUR STYLE.
 
You can mimic styles, but make them your own. That's what hipster is, "unique."

Sorry for the lack of tips, yo. c:
But tbh, I've been really busy with school & well, BOYS.(:
what boys like kayla?
that's what i said too lol xD

Okay, so I know our account has like 279836 relationship/boy tips right now but I decided to make one too because I recently discovered how much I like my crush { does that sound weird..? xD } and I actually found out that he likes me too, so.. c':
 
Let me tell you the story of me & my crush and then I'll get to the advice part.(:
 
So, I've liked this kid on & off for the past year and a half but I never told anyone because I liked someone else too. When me and my other crush, let's say his name's David, grew distant over the summer and new crush, hmm.. let's say Tyler, came into my life, I decided for a fact that I liked Tyler. He used to message me on Facebook all the freaking time { hehe i love it } and say things that were just so adorable. Anyways, so Ty is really good friends with my best girly frand Emily, so when she came up and asked me who I liked I was like, 'Um.. David.' She asked me if there was anyone else and she's my best friend so I said, 'Tyler' and she told me he likes me too.
When I got home that night Tyler messaged me saying 'hey(:' and we talked for a little while about school that day and then I brought up my conversation with Emily. He didn't act obvious about his liking for me, and so I told him I'd tell I'm who I liked if he told me. So I said him & he said me.
LET ME TELL YOU WHAT
I LITERALLY SCREAMED OKAY I DID
Anyways, so I asked him WHY he liked me and he said it's because I'm cute & he liked my personality a lot. I was like asdfghjkl;' ♥
But yeah, so now we're super close & nothing important has happened like him asking me out or anything but I'm perfectly fine with our friendship right now. I can really trust him.(:
 
NOW, I CAN TELL YOU WHAT LED UP TO HIM TELLING ME HE LIKES ME.
these:
 
- We talked on the phone on Saturday from 10:26 to 3:33 in the morning. We discussed school & siblings & what we were doing Sunday. I know that sounds really weird to talk that long but half the time I was like, asleep so.. xD
 
- I told him this one joke a while back from The Office I think. xD
Me: It smells like upsexy..
Him: What's upsexy?
Me: LOLOL. NOT MUCH, YOU?
Him: Oh my gosh..
 
- Then he used that joke at like 11:30 on Sunday night when he said 'You upsexy? LOL' on facebook when he wanted to talk.(:
 
- We talked a lot on Facebook. A lot. It made us closer. c':
 
Alright, I'll be posting an advice set later or tomorrow, depending on what I have to do.
