Fashion Inspiration: Lauren Conrad

Whenever somebody asks me, "who's your fashion inspiration?", the answer is easy. Lauren Conrad's casual yet super girly style is exactly what I strive for. As a fan of The Hills I can appreciate Lauren's growth in personal style. From early 2000's grunge to classy and feminine, Lauren Conrad has blossomed into a fashion icon.
What I admire most about Lauren's style is her ability to make causal so chic as well as the simplicity found in her outfits. She can throw on a dress and some heels and looks completely put together but not over the top. Overall I think Lauren Conrad has impeccable taste and she is definitely one of my fashion inspirations.

What do you think about Lauren's style? Who is your biggest fashion inspiration?

Thank you for reading!

Fall and Winter Fashion Haul: Forever21 and H&M!

My sister and I recently went on a little shopping spree whilst we were out of town for Thanksgiving. The town that we live in does not have a Forever21 or an H&M, I know, unbelievable! So we took the chance to go to these two stores when we were in Spokane and we found so many adorable pieces for very reasonable prices.

We made a haul video and put it up on our YouTube channel and it would mean SO much to me if some of you checked it out. I find haul videos so entertaining and they make me very relaxed for some reason, so we just had to do a haul video after our amazing shopping during Thanksgiving break.

I hope all of you had an AMAZING Thanksgiving!!!

Hello Halloween!

If you know me, and I'm assuming not many of you don't, you will know that I love dressing up...like a lot...I also have a huge sweet tooth and a deep love for candy, that makes Halloween the perfect holiday for me. Although I did not have an extremely exciting Halloween this year (unless you count eating candy and reblogging pictures on Tumblr exciting) I had a great time experimenting with costumes throughout the Halloween season and taking many a "spooky selfie".

1) My first costume is a 1920's Great Gatsby inspired look! A bob haircut, dramatic makeup and pearls really give this costume a "flapper girl vibe".

2) My second costume is the one and only Miley Cyrus. This look was by far the easiest, wear all white, put your hair into space buns, slap on some red lipstick and you are ready to roll! Don't forget to stick your tongue out though!

 

3) My third and final costume was basically all done with makeup! Just use liquid latex, tissue paper, white face makeup and some fake blood and you will be transformed into a hideous zombie!(Watch Michelle Phan's YouTube tutorial for specific instructions.)

I hope all of you had a happy Halloween! 

What did you dress up as this year? :)

Autumn as proven to be an extremely beautiful time of year, not only in terms of the gorgeous landscapes but also the adorable outfits that come with the cooler weather!

Recently my sister and I have shown our YouTube channel some fall love with a couple of fall themed videos!

This second video is one that I made on my own and it is a "Get Ready With Me" style video and of course it is themed around fall!

I hope you check out these videos and if you do comment below:   "Michelle's blog sent me :)". 

I hope you find these videos entertaining or helpful and that they inspire you to "fall" more in love with the fall season! :)

That's it for now.

Love,

FALLing in Love With Fall Fashion

There is something very comforting about the fall. Not only is it chalked full of warm sweaters, yummy smelling candles, and delightful seasonal drinks but it is a season where I always feel like I get a fresh start, maybe it's the new school year, the new cool-weather-clothes or maybe even the leaves of the past year falling to the ground, but all of them put together make fall seem like the perfect season to start all over.

Today my friend, Riley, and I went to take some fall inspired photos on our University's campus, where we had a wonderful time enjoying the gorgeous fall weather, pulling a few weird body parts while using self-timer, and being stared at awkwardly by passersby. Of course we also got some great photos that documented our fall inspired outfits as well as the lovely time we had this morning.

Often times people think that cooler weather means saying goodbye to dresses and skirts, however, this is not the case at all! As you can see with Riley and I's outfit choices we are not letting go of our dresses anytime soon. Just make sure you choose a "non-sundress" dress and layer up your pieces with warm cardigans and tights/leggings, this will make sure you don't get cold as well as creating a more autumnal look.

You can never go wrong with boots as your foot-ware of choice throughout the fall season,they are cute, go with everything and keep you warm!

My cowboy boots
are a fun addition
to any fall outfit!

Riley's adorable ankle boots are the 
perfect touch on a feminine outfit 
during the fall.

For our earrings, Riley and I both chose fall colored jewelry. Deep greens,coppery colors,golds,topes and browns are great colors for accessorizing throughout the fall season!

Fall fashion is definitely one of my favorites, whether it's a cute girly look with a dress involved or just a chunky sweater with leggings, fall fashion is super comfortable and absolutely adorable!

What about you? What is your favorite thing about autumn and what are you excited to incorporate into your fall wardrobe?

Goodbye September

Goodbye September and hello October!

Wow...September seems to have just flown by, where did it go? How did that even happen? Although I am extremely excited for all of the wonderful occasions that are ahead now that it is October, I don't want to forget all of the lovely little memories that I made in September. I think it is very important to treasure even the smallest perhaps "insignificant" moments in life. The start of a new month is the perfect time to remember all of the great parts of the month that has just come to an end.

I really enjoyed making this little collage of
my September. I think I am going to make it a
monthly tradition,what do you think?

If you didn't already know, my sister and I have a Youtube channel, TwoYearsEightMonths, the name came from our age difference, I am exactly two years and eight months older than she is..Clever, huh? Anyways I really wanted to share this portion of my life with you because although it isn't completely related to fashion (we do have a selection of fashion/beauty videos though)it is important for me to document some other passions of mine on this page and hopefully you guys will enjoy it too! We just started around 6 months ago so we definitely have a lot of improving to do but we are very excited about our channel and have a lot of ideas for future videos! Here is my most recent video of my September favorites.

I hope you all had a superb September and have an even better October!

Love 

Michelle
