FIND YOUR STYLE FOR THE 8TH GRADE

Choosing an outfit for the first day of school can be stressful many students.  Below I list some key points to think about when you are choosing that perfect outfit. 

First day of school outfit:
  • Find an outfit that you truly fall in love with and will make a truthful statement about who YOU are.
  • find something that makes you feel confident AND comfortable. 
  • choose your outfit based on your personality...do you like subtle or bold colors? or are you stuck wearing a uniform like me?
  • If you wear a uniform, you can always accessorize with: hair ties, scrunchies, earrings, chokers, rings and bracelets, cute socks and funky shoes. 
Im more of a subtle color kind of girl.  Minimalist, I like simple and clean.  So from time to time I will post things that will be bright and funky, and more than likely, they will come from my sisters' side of the closet.

Makeup or no makeup?

Truly, and honestly I would wear a 'clean face' of makeup and make it  super natural. You never want to go to school, especially in middle school, with a full face of super cakey makeup. Trust me, cakey makeup never looks good. Cakey make up also leaves room for people to talk about you and spread rumors (trust me rumors spread fast in middle school), and you don't want to be known as the girl with the super thick/black eyebrows or foundation.  Like my mom always says, "a little goes along way", which is so true, with a little makeup you will make a great impression of who you really are.

Makeup tips:
  • wear BB cream instead of heavy foundation because BB cream give a clean fresh slate for a teen girl. Its basically a mix of foundation and moisturizer together and even has sunscreen inside!!! #faceprotection
  • get a liquid or cream blush because you could also use that as tint for your lips, followed with chapstick or lip gloss right over your tinted lips so you have that fresh dewy look
  • put very little eyebrow makeup and put brow gel to hold your brow hairs in place. #onfleek
  • curl your eyelashes and put very little mascara on so you still look natural
  • put a light orange/beige eye shadow on so it doesn't look too bold but still fresh and pigmented 
Stay tuned for the next blog on the 8th grade!
