That's Not My Name

That's not my name
For realz tho I have changed my blog name like 10 times so if you were looking for a consistent blogger,  you should've looked elsewhere.
As we ring in the New Year, I solemnly swear that I am going to try my best to post on a regular basis.
SIKE
I actually will try because I feel that there are certain people who need my wonderful words of wisdom.
If you're ready come and get it
Most likely will post again next week after basking in the glory of my new presents.
Have yourselves merry little Christmases!
Peace and Love,
VI ZORA

Tuesday's Tunes (on Saturday!)


I am in fact a horrible blogger.
 I haven't written in over 3 weeks and it's not because I wasn't wearing clothes or anything it's just the first weeks of school can be extremely frustrating/hectic/exciting.
 So, to help you get your beautiful minds of all the homework you have, I created a playlist of all the music I've been listening to. I'm obviously a "cool person" so you can take my advice, the music is rad.
Prepare to feel like a major hipster after listening.
xoxo Liv
P.S. The next post will be tomorrow in case you are just dying to know what I wore to the apple orchard today, or not.
P.P.S You should check out A Bent Piece of Wire because Justina is a cooler me.

And so it begins...

 These badass babies were a great steal!
+Marshalls
Laid back mules like these, make walking the halls easy and chic.
@target

A versatile crossbody like this is a must-have fall staple.
 +Target
A cute backpack is the best way to show your style.

A colorful necklace is super chic with a patterned top.

Everyone needs a lil statement necklace.
+Deb Shops

A simple edgy faux diamond necklace can easily spruce up the oldest of t - shirts.
@Clothes Mentor 

This mascara is the best for luscious lashes (and it's cheap!).

This definitely curbs any late night studying/Netflix watching effects.

This little bottle thingy is the bane of my existence. Pimples beware.

The back to school spirit has officially begun to hit me as I reach my last days of freedom. I realize some of you have already experienced the grueling first day, but I don't start until Sept. 3. (which then I guess I should be grateful) But, even though we have to get ready for the oh so dreadful first day, we can at least enjoy the preparation for the upcoming school year.
1. Shopping!!!!!
Back-to-school shopping is one of the best inventions since...
 Instagram.
 Your parents actually have a reason to buy you new things. And the new looks of fall are usually the best fashion has to offer.
2. Supplies!
School supplies have come a long way from their basic primary color form.
Now stores are offering super stylish pencil cases, folders, and even things you don't need but want like three-hole punches. Check out these chic tools for a fabulous start to your year Best Back to School Supplies
3. Beauty Routines
Nothing is better than rolling through the hallways looking like a brand new you. This wonderful feeling is affordable and easy to achieve. 
Here's the how-to:
1. A blinding smile
use: Crest 3D Whitestrips before you go to bed for a dazzling grill.
2. Flawless skin
use: Biore Deep Charcoal Cleanser for a refreshed face before class.
3. New 'do
use: Ask your hairdresser for something new. It doesn't have to be a new color or a big chop but, a couple inches shorter or a shade darker might be just what you need.
4. Daring Make-up
use: Thick Brows are all the rage and they are the easiest way to spruce up your look! Try Urban Decay Brow Box for a subtle darker shade.
5. New found confidence
Over the summer you realized how truly awesome you are. You realized you are a piece of art and God made you the exact way he wanted. You realized how wonderfully rad you are:)
So take this brand new school year in stride and if the past is not who you want to be, change that. 
High School is the one place where you are constantly being judged and that takes it's toll on any human being, trust me. But, the one secret I can tell you, is it doesn't matter what people think of you. As long as you can find a group of people as cool as you, the world is yours for the taking.
So stay radical.

Channeling Your Inner T. Swifty

For a glowing look use Urban Decay Gilded on the apples of your cheeks
shirt: TJ Maxx, skirt: Kohl's Pulling an Angelina 
Taylor Swift is, by no means, a stranger to fashion and, in my opinion, she's has one of the best street styles
like ever.
(see what I did there)
So when the option of going to the farmer's market (where I'm sure Taylor Swift frequently shows off her retro chic style while picking fresh flowers or organic strawberries or something) came up I jumped at the chance to look just as fabulous as T. Swift while I stroll through my local market.
Facts: Strolling is way easier in comfy shoes
Sunglasses are a necessity
Raspberries don't do well in plastic bags
Some people do not understand the concept "personal bubble"
You will feel like a hipster. A cool one.
When trying to channel The Country Princess, try mixing classics with more modern pieces like a button-up with a patterned skater skirt and oxfords or a striped tee with a pair of high waisted shorts and a statement necklace.
You can also rock a red lip and maybe sing about boy troubles just for good measure.
Stay Fuchsia and Fabulous
xoxo Liv 
P.S. Unlike Miss Swift my clothes come from less fancible so they are affordable for the average teen so if you have any inquiries about the clothes I wear leave a comment and I'll get back to ya!
