My Pin up Journey- Be bold

Lately i have been VERY into the whole pin up girl look and for the past few days i have been trying out different variations of the look that could work as one of my signature styles.

But things were lacking a little, i was never bold enough to go all the way. Mostly i was afraid of the red lip. Now maybe its because red is such a bold color and contrary to popular belief im not that bold. Or it could have been because i have very pronounced facial features (large eyes, a big nose and full lips) and i felt like putting bright red lipstick on my face would just be over kill. I dont know...whatever it was i was SCARED.

Until today, i woke up in a good mood and decided today would be the day that i would finally crack open that Revlon "Red Velvet" Color Stay Lipstick....and ladies it was the BEST choice i could have ever made. I got so many compliments on my look it was amazing and i felt beautiful!

So if any of you ladies out there want to try something new....my fashion tip of the day is: Be bold and take chances, if you want to try something just do it!

Below are pictures and descriptions of my 3 day pin up journey, i hope your inspired =)


Day 1: Pin up in training

On day one i was a little nervous about the whole look...i wanted to play it safe

-My hair is pin curled and held up with bobby pins
-I have a black bandanna tied around my head separating the back of my hair and my bangs
-I have feather earrings to add a sweet feel to the look
-My make up consisted of very light neutrals
-I wore a white see through button up a white cami, black shorts and black wedges (full outfit look to come)


Day 2: Rocker pin up

With the success of day one i figured i would kick it up a notch on day two and bring the pin up girl into the modern day
-I let my down from the pin curls and it came out full and bouncy so i was very happy
-The black bandanna is again a STAPLE in this look so i threw it on again to hold my hair back
-You cant see much of my jewelry here but its all very rockerish cross earrings, cross rings and bulky necklaces
-My eye make up consisted of shades of pink going from light to dark on my eyes and winged eye liner
-I wore a pink button up shirt tucked into a high waisted stripe shirt and threw on a cut off jean jacket to add edge and paired the look with army boots (not shown)

Day 3: Shes a pin up girl

FINALLY A RED LIP!

-I brushed my hair out a bit so the curls would not be as defined

-The bandanna again had to make an appearance

-My eye make up is non existent i just have a winged eye liner and a very faint coral color on the base of my lid

-The only jewelery i put on was earrings and they are stud pearls with a gold trim

-I finally put on the red lipstick =)

-I wore a black long sleeve tee shirt with a grey hoodie over it and the same jean jacket from the day before, regular jeans and black flats

-I wore the glasses as an accessory but took them off mid day
