Fashion Friday...my favourite looks of the week

As of February 7th, 2014 I have officially launched my first and newest segment called "Fashion Friday" in which every Friday I will countdown my favourite three looks of the week!
Carrie Underwood
Carrie Underwood looks beautiful and elegant in this Pamma Ted Baker knee length gown she wore at New York Fashion Week. Everything from her white clutch, silver pumps and short hairstyle flows perfectly. I love the soft pastel pink of this dress and the little designs on the shoulders give the gown the perfect amount of pop that it needs.
Because the look is so delicate, I'm glad she went light and natural with her make-up. Her nude lip and light eye make-up are soft enough to not overpower the dress and not wash her out either.
The white clutch she chose is the perfect size and colour
that once again does not complicate or busy the ensemble. My favourite part of this look would be her hairstyle. I think it's such a cute, vintage-y do that frames her face perfectly.
Carrie won't be slashing my tires anytime soon because I chose her as my number three look of the week!

Perrie Edwards
Perrie Edwards from Little Mix looks stunning in this patterned navy blue pant suit. The solid grey peacoat creates a striking contrast against the pattern and brings the whole outfit together.
 Her blue strap purse and aqua pumps make her eyes stand out beautifully. I love the way she tied her hair back so that it looks casual but still has a dressy feel to it. Perrie's ensemble is fun and exciting, yet can still be worn to look classy professional at a business meeting.
Choosing to leave the peacoat open was a good way to keep her warm, yet still show off her cute outfit to the cameras. She looks confident, classy and ready to sing her heart out on Good Morning America.
Salute! to you Perrie. You are my number two pick of the week!

1 Nicole Scherzinger
Nicole rocked this edgy and sophisticated outfit while walking the streets of London, England. Firstly, I have to mention the absolute sass that Nicole has in this picture. She looks hot and she knows it.
*Finger snap*
Referring back to Perrie's outfit, grey peacoats/jackets seem to be the accessory of the week. Her silky, black camisole and tight black leggings go from casual mall look to red carpet ready look with the addition of her silver necklace. I really love her black and grey opened toe pumps, they match perfectly with her coat and surprisingly don't make this look a summer outfit. Her silver necklace and red-orange lipstick add the perfect 'pops' to this grey and black outfit, and give the look the bit of brightness it needs. I love, love, love this look! Nicole definitely makes your girlfriend wish she was hot like her and that's why she's my number one pick of the week!

hello!

Hello!

So I've always wanted to start a blog because I love writing and I love fashion, makeup and celebrities as much as the next person and I also love to state my opinion on things! Basically this blog is just going to be me telling my thoughts to you about anything and everything! 


First I'll tell you a little bit about myself...


My name is Alexandria, Alex for short, I'm 19 years old and I live in Toronto, Canada. 

I love anything to do with fashion, makeup, beauty, hair, nails, clothes, photography, magazines, books, celebrities, movies, music and basically anything else girly. 

My mother always tells me that I talk way to much and I have opinions about everything, so instead of tiring her with my rants and stories, I thought I'd write them out and hopefully make someone smile, laugh or even think!




This is me! ^  Except I don't actually have a cross tattoo.. I just really want one but at the moment I'm not allowed, so I like to pretend I do by using a wonderful, black permanent sharpie! (It's actually kind of fun if you think about it because you can give yourself a "tattoo" and then once you get tired of it, you can remove it and give yourself a different one!)
