Pin of the Week!

This week I spent most of my time on Pinterest because its vacation time! Yay! With my very many pins I posted my absolute favorite was the one that I'm sharing with you. I wanted to paint my nails for New Year's Eve by adding a little sparkle to basic color of nail polish but I didn't want it to a be sparkled. I love how people do this half dripped sparkle on basic nail coloring. Most people call it a "glitter fade". This pin explains how to add a little sparkle to any nail without painting the whole thing. And that is why I chose this pin as my pin of the week!

Winter Party Outfits!

I just finished making my first ever fashion video! Yay! In this video I have a casual outfit, and a formal outfit for both types of parties this holiday season. I hope you enjoy (I will make better videos in the future, trial and error guys). Thanks for all of your support, happy holidays!

Pin of the Week!

     This week I have been looking for Christmas presents for everyone I know and how to make cheap Christmas Presents. I found a great one to make that I will tell you guys about in the next post, but first it's time for the Pin of the Week! This week's Pin of the Week is a super cute sweater from Forever 21!
     Miranda Cosgrove, from iCarly) wore this cute sweater in an episode and I wanted to find the exact same one for myself. Turns out the exact same one was from some place really expensive (I think J. Crew) for about $800.00. Who would spend that much on a sweater if they weren't rich!?! So, I spent about a month looking for a similar sweater, and I looked EVERYWHERE, literally! There were a bunch of sweaters with multiple hearts or sequined big hearts, but I wanted just one big huge one that was just plain. Since I couldn't find one, I just gave up.
     Last weekend I went on Forever 21's website, and guess what I found?! Yup, a sweater just like the one I wanted but it was for $27.00. Plus, it comes in 3 different beautiful colors too! I just had to pin it on Pinterest, and that is why this sweater from Forever 21 is my pin of the week.

     So, there are two pictures above. One with Miranda Cosgrove wearing the sweater, another of the sweater from Forever 21. I will also post the link where you can buy the sweater on Forever 21's website. I am making a video tomorrow about holiday party outfits, so stay tuned!

Pin of the Week!

     At the end of every week I will post one pin that I think is the best pin I've seen on Pinterest. This week I think it is this Instagram hanging collage. I just love taking photos on Instagram and the Best Buy commercial about how your gift from the holidays inspired something great in the world gave me the thought of looking up ways to express your Instagram life with accessories in any room. My favorite part of the Best Buy commercial is when the mom talks about how her daughter used her new iPhone to take a bunch of Instagram pictures and then to print them out and post them all over her bedroom walls. I just think that having pictures that you've taken all over your walls is an awesome idea! So, I became inspired to see how to hang these photos so you could make them look whatever way you want in your own home. Out of all of the pins about hanging Instagram photos in a collage style (and there was definitely a lot of them) this one turned out to be my favorite.
     I'm sharing the photo that came with the pin and the link of the pin with all of you who read my blog because it's such a great idea, and you will hopefully get inspired by such a creative way of expressing your self and your photos, like I did. Enjoy!

Pinterest

     Now I know it's been about a year since I last posted (besides last night) so I've had a lot of time to have some experiences with the world wide web, hahaha! There have been many outbreaking websites that have surfaced since I last blogged, like, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, all that junk. My favorite website I have used since I last blogged has been Pinterest. I absolutely LOVE Pinterest! I think that I use it at least once every single day. Pinterest is a website where you can create an account and then pin and like everything you see on the internet to your "boards" on your account. I love it! Not only do you get to see all these amazing ideas for Fashion, Makeup, DIY Ideas, holiday gifts, pretty much anything you think of, but you also get to find out more about yourself! I have developed my own fashion sense with these boards and I have also been able to see what's trending and whats not in every single topic of the world. Pinterest is just an amazing website! I would say that everyone should have a Pinterest account (specifically every female out there).

     All you need to do in order to get an account is go to pinterest.com and use your e-mail address to sign up. Sometimes you may go on a list of people who have signed up to get an account, but you can still look at all of the "pins" people have made as links to their Pinterest accounts. Once your account is made you can start going pin happy! You can also follow and invite your friends to your account on the website if you would like. I suggest that you follow me, as well. Of to the right side of my blog underneath my profile is a picture link that says "follow me on Pinterest" you can click that, or you could also just search for rachied10 in the search bar on pinterest.com. Happy Pinning Guys!

I'm Back!

So I have decided to come back to Blogspot and to blog some more. This time I plan on having the blog be even more personal. I am changing the theme from random favorites ( if you want to call it that) to whatever I feel like (fashion, makeup, hair, photography, books, movies, websites, video games, DIY, etc). Pretty much whatever I want to share that I think needs to be shared out with the world. I want to keep it all positive and to just spread the love of my favorite things in my life with all of you out there! I hope  you will enjoy!
