TREND ALERT: Shaggy Fur Vest

My winter wardrobe always calls for an absolute need for layering, mostly to do to with the (literally) freezing temperatures. Unfortunately this can sometimes result in me looking like a marshmallow or a snow man ( not that I have anything against snowmen....OLAF!). You have to find the right balance between the need for warmth and the need for style. I already talked about the return of the turtleneck but I have spotted another trend on the rise.

The "shaggy fur" vest as like to call it is actually quite a stunning piece I have to say. It really catches your eye and it is the perfect statement piece to top of any winter look. This vest is great for the edgy ,eclectic girl and the fashionista alike. Personally, I feel like I would get so distracted by the movement of it and knowing myself I would probably would get it all wet and dirty. These vests have always symbolized high fashion but now they are making their way into junior fashion as well. I love that high fashion is influencing the younger generation. Love Ya <3 Stay Fabulous <3

Turkey Day :)

I know I have a couple readers coming from different countries however for us Americans, Thanksgiving, or "Turkey Day" as I like to call it is just around the corner and I would like to take the time and reflect what I am most thankful for. For one thing I am so extremely thankful to have a loving and supportive family. They are so awesome and I love them so much! I am thankful for my church family and my theater family and all of my friends. The friends I have met this year are so amazing and fun and really truly excepting. They see me for me and they really don't care how insane I am on two cups of coffee :). Of course I am also thankful for the friends who have stuck with me through and through. Some friends may come and some friends may go , but the friends who ACTUALLY are their are the friends you need to keep.

The list goes on and on but I also wanted to express my thanks for You guys who have been their from the very beginning! I know I lost a lot of readers when school started and that's okay ( I really hope they find their way back). This summer was probably the best ones I have ever had. I loved blogging almost everyday. I wish I still had that opportunity ( and the free time). But you guys have just kept me going and I want to give something back to you!

Lets talk!
I want to reach out to you. I really want to converse with my readers. In the comments section below, ask me your questions. It can be about anything at all! Keep it you know...PG... please :)

Happy Thanksgiving all of You Beautiful People!

TURTLENECKS?!?

I never ever ( EVER) been a fan of the turtleneck. To me they always seemed so constricting, and well very nerdy. Honestly whenever I saw someone wearing one I thought of Howard Wolowitz. Then one day it all changed for me and I fell in love. That's right people the turtleneck is back, and just in time for the cold weather.

\LITERALLY TODAY WAS BELOW FREEZING!

I've seen this trend popping up everywhere. I recently noticed some of my favorite YouTubers sporting this cozy invention, however their not the type I'm used to seeing. These new turtle necks are bulky and super edgy but girly at the same time. I can't even find the words to describe how much I am in love.

I am so glad that these bad boys are making a comeback and I look forward to some more trends that will hopefully make a reappearance! Have a good week and ....

Fall Outfit Inspiration

Hello Beauties (Bringing it back the old days),

     You all know how much I love the fall time, so I figured it was time for another Outfit Inspiration. If you don't remember or you are new to my Blog I did a summer inspiration post a while back:  http://www.just-be-fabulous.blogspot.com/2014/07/outfit-inspiration-dressy-summer.html.

I am in love with this outfit. I have to say it is pretty  "On Point" and great for the fall time.

       First off I kept my makeup simple with some gold and brown shades and red lips because, fall...duh. Starting from the bottom, I am wearing some light brown combat boots with gold accents from Rac Room Shoes. These are super comfy and they give me and extra inch ( making me taller than I am already). Combat boots are perfect for the fall and go great with my Wallflower dark wash skinny jeans. Next I paired a black tank top with my red-white-blue flannel from Aeropostale. It is actually made out of cotton material so it is very light and form fitting. Over top of that I am wearing this amazing brown leather jacket from WetSeal . It has detailing at the elbows and it is pinched in at the waist giving you a very flattering look. My nails are in the shade "through the grapevine" from Wet and Wild. It is a great mauvy (?) color and complements the look nicely. To top it off I am wearing a burgundy infinity scarf from WetSeal as well. Lastly I am wearing my large diamond earrings from Aeropostale. 

If you like this look (as much as I do) you can follow me on my Instagram: @fabulouslyme21 and like it. Comment Down below your number one, absolute, without a doubt, must have fall essential this season! I hope you were inspired by this look and if your looking for some more fall inspiration I have a  Fall Inspired Makeup Tutorial on my channel now ,so be sure to check it out. 

*Extra posts may be on the way this week so be on the look out!

Body Confidence

* Before Reading this, get comfortable

You need to see this:

Recently Becky Hopper on Twitter tweeted out this image of a Topshop mannequin. The girl to the left is her friend Georgia who is a size 8. The models thighs are approximatley  2/3 smaller than the average women. Isn't that just heartbreaking.  It is images like these that cause so much body insecurities throughout the teen and female community in general.

Body confidence is such a large issue today. It saddens me so much to think that there are people out there that are so insecure and non confident in themselves, partially do to images like this. Sure this may be a blog for de-stressing ideas, makeup and fashion tips, and some gif trails now and then, but if I don't use my platform to encourage young girls, then I am really taking the internet for granted.

The thing about body confidence is that its different for everybody. For me I am naturally on the skinnier sized of the spectrum. However with that comes smaller "features". So songs like Megan Trainors " All About that Bass" really upset me. Her talent is undeniable, but the song is suppose to be about female empowerment and self confidence, but with lyrics like:

• Yeah, my mama she told me don't worry about your size
  She says, "Boys like a little more booty to hold at night."
• 
  I'm bringing booty back
  Go ahead and tell them skinny b****es that

Make me feel like because I don't have a big butt, that I'm not good enough, and that's it's a bad thing to be skinny. Every body type whether tall or short, curvy or thin, is beautiful. The thing is, we are each unique and so stunningly gorgeous in our own ways. Everyone gets mad at models on magazines because they don't show " the real woman". What is the real woman? Why should people get mad at them because they are naturally on the skinny side? Sure I understand their are cases in which they may of had a little "help", but if they're naturally like that, then are they not a "real woman".

I may not have the largest cup size out of my friends, I may be able to see over the tops of all of their heads, I may not have the butt to fill my jeans (thank goodness for belts), I may have the largest feet out of almost every single girl I have ever met, but I have come to learn that I .am. beautiful. You are so, so beautiful ( or handsome if you prefer). I have been wondering what I want to do with my life, and though I still may not be sure, I feel like God is pushing me to do something where I can empower girls and make them feel beautiful.

Homecoming just past for me, and even though I didn't go
 I went to a friends Quinceañera. You dress just like 
homecoming. 
If you have been reading my blog you know I love 
to do makeup.

 I also have a real talent for doing other peoples makeup.
So anyways I had a friend over for the first time and 
she asked if I could do her makeup for the event, 
because she doesn't know how to do her own very well. 
After I finished I could just tell that she felt 

so beautiful and I loved making her feel that way. 
We had so much fun that night. 

Its important as a female that we cut out the feeling of
 competition. Instead of wishing you had her full lips, 
or feeling insignificant because you haven't found a guy...
 try to build someone else up . If you like what that girl is 
wearing, 
compliment her. It might be just the thing to lift her spirits.  

This week I challenge you to give out 10 compliments. 
Encourage them do to the same. Lets just keep it going. 

See how you feel! Let me know your stories in the comments
 down below. And don't forget...

<3 Stay Fabulous <3
