Where To Find 24 Cool Gifts For Women - Fashion Gift Guide - April 2021

Hi There..... Have you been waiting impatiently to see my new Fashion Gift Guide? 

I bet you are more than ready to find out what kind of cool gifts for women are coming up next. 😊

What if you are not? Maybe you are thinking, oh no, not another one of those. 😱

Ok, I will drop it. That would be terribly disappointing, though, for all those people I promised to feature in my gift guide. Would you really want that? Are you not the least bit curious to find out more about the cool gifts for women I found for you this time? 😲

No, of course, you don't want me to blow this whole gift guide off. You are a kind soul. I am sure of it. Nah, I can't say I am sure. That would be a lie. 😁

What I can say is that I have met a few of my readers, and they were very kind. No, not in person, through messaging online. I always love to get to know more about my readers. You know so much about me already, but I don't know that much about you. Although, some of my fellow bloggers are readers too, and a few share personal information about themselves. 😊

Many people have told me they love it when I get personal. It felt really weird in the beginning, but after a while, you get used to it. 😊

I have learned to be careful not to hurt any of my friends or the people I love. Sometimes I think of bad things that happened to me, but if it's hurtful to my family, I won't share it. But no need to worry. I have been around long enough to have lots of stories to tell. Surely you must have noticed those wrinkles I am so fond of. 😏

Enough small talk. Let me show you these fashionable gifts for women. 😎

EZ DRESS, LIGHT JERSEY $88.00



A.Lynn is an NYC-based sustainable fashion brand reinventing the sizing systems to reduce fashion waste. We are working to solve the trillion-dollar problem of returns and exchanges in fashion. Our goal is to end returns because our customers can find the perfect fit for the first time. And the proof is in the numbers. We have almost zero returns.

Not only are all our designs made from sustainably sourced fibers (our fibers use less water and are manufactured in a C02 neutral facility), but we are reinventing the traditional size scale to give women a more personalized fit on demand. More sizes for all women, like people under 5’4” or over 5’8”, who constantly have to get clothes tailored because designers only give women 'a size' (small, medium, large), unlike men who get neck and sleeve length.

It was this problem that our founder, Andrea Seemayer, stepped up to solve. After working as a director at brands like Zac Posen and Alice & Olivia, Andrea saw the incredible sizing gap for women’s height and length. So she worked to develop specialized sustainable fibers and a sizing system using 64 points of measurements, and A.Lynn Designs was born.

Meet the dress you throw on to run errands or conquer a night out on the town. EZ Dress hangs straight on the body with a high-low hemline to elongate the legs and create a flowing train of fabric behind you. Side slits allow for plenty of movement and plenty more attitude. Turn heads with our plunging back neckline the next time you bag your farmers’ market bounty or hail a taxi.

House of the Sun Necklace $ 80.00



A large part of Nina Berenato's brand identity rests on the designer's goal to use her gift for design to make all women feel powerful, beautiful and capable of anything. 

Since opening up her first retail store in Austin, TX inside of a re-furbished 1959 Airstream Bambi, Nina has become a fixture in Austin’s growing maker community. In 2017, Nina Berenato opened her first flagship store where she produces her namesake collection, teaches jewelry-making classes, and leads her team of 4 incredible Austin women.

In 2020, Nina Berenato Jewelry received Austin's highest sustainability honor, Platinum Green Business Leader, becoming the first fashion retailer to do so. 

The designer's involvement in the Austin community doesn't stop with her leadership in sustainable fashion, she uses her designs to raise money for local charities and regularly opens her shop up as a space to help other female artists grow and thrive.

Every piece Nina makes is 100% women-made, certified sustainable, and socially good.

You can layer this circular turquoise pendant necklace with anything. The delicate and dainty thin chain makes it a great addition to any jewelry collection. 

This necklace is inspired by the message of the indigenous Kogi people of Colombia. The Kogi say that their ceremonial "house of the sun" is mirrored after the first house, a circular building with a womb-like opening to the heavens. This first house was created by the mother who created the Sun with her own menstrual blood.

This necklace has a natural Turquoise stone set in the center. It comes on an 18-inch chain, however, we can make a different chain length for you at no additional charge if you'd prefer that. Just put your length request in the "Notes" section of your order. All bodies are good bodies and we want our necklaces to fall perfectly on YOU.

Music Cat Hair Clip $11.99



La Tiare is French for 'The Tiara.'

Tiaras are often associated with royalty and princesses, but that not true. From Persian origins, the word 'Tiara' is used to define ornaments worn on formal occasions, meaning anything could be a 'Tiara.'

The idea came from three founders, Janice, Nancy, and Jenny. They loved to discuss trending hairstyles, and fashion. They realized people dress up for clothes and shoes, but not for hair. It is such a pain to put accessories on in winter because it would cause rashes on the skin. There is no limitation on fashion. Why not put hair accessories on instead of earrings and necklaces? They believe hair accessories are a new trend of beauty expression. They do not cause any rashes on the skin and are easy to style.  

At La Tiare, we believe every hair accessory has a story to tell, and you are part of that amazing tale. We believe you should express yourself and your hair regardless of type, color, or length. Dress your hair the way you want, with La Tiare. 

Meow~~ Who doesn't love cats? If you are looking for something to please the cat lover in you, you are in the right place. The hair clip is sturdy and suitable for any hair.

Music Cat is a set of 2 hairpieces. Dreamy Cat Series ~ Starry Cat Hair Clip & Planet Cat Hair Clip.


The Paris Tank - Navy $84




In early 2016, Molly Shaheen & Huw Collins were considering opening a boutique, with both having an interest & enthusiasm for the fashion world. Huw had completed filming the TV show Pretty Little Liars, and Molly was looking to capitalize on her wealth of business experience.

During a trip to Paris, Huw had arranged a private tour of Coco Chanel's apartment, in the knowledge that his wife had long admired the enduring influence of the House of Chanel.

Whilst they walked through in the hallowed space, where Chanel masterminded a fashion revolution, Molly noticed many symbols and motifs of Wheat permeating the aesthetic.

They learned that after Gabrielle Chanel was born into poverty in the French countryside during Harvest in 1883. She formed a strong belief that Wheat represented an opportunity to transcend her circumstances, and keeping symbols of it close by would always bring her prosperity and abundance.

Moments after hearing the story, Molly suggested to Huw that they should name their boutique Wheat, using a painting by Dali from Chanel's apartment to inspire the logo design. Consecrating the plan in a space touched by the hand of Chanel, Wheat was born!!

After the success of Wheat’s inaugural location in York Beach, ME in 2017, a second location followed in Newburyport, MA later that year with Meghan Bonnano & Colleen Roy.

In early 2019, Wheat expanded to the West coast. Taking advantage of an opportunity to progress the brand to a new frontier, the third Wheat location was opened at Hotel Casa del Mar, in Santa Monica, CA.

One year later to the day, in 2020, Wheat opened a fourth location, its second on the West coast. Entering a partnership with the Four Seasons brand at the Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills.

In Spring 2020 came the introduction of Wheat 1.17, a luxury lifestyle clothing line encompassing the essence of the Wheat brand. This move allowed Wheat's loyal customer base to bring a piece of Wheat along with them on all their adventures!

Soft fabric and flattering lines come together to create the ideal tank, marrying aesthetic & practicality in perfect union.

Post Softly and Carry a Big Stick Shirt $35.00



Live Laugh Shirt is a shop created as a sarcastic mirror for pop culture. Ryan Lambert, the owner, loves absurdity, satire, and irony, and most of the creative elements rise out of that headspace. He also considers himself an archivist, collecting phrases, fonts, and graphics to blend in together and use as designs. 

The website serves as a lightning rod, to attract attention and support for his film and literary projects. He publishes a weekly newsletter that showcases all of his projects, a digest of writing and videos, clothes for sale, and more.

He is also hoping to grow Live Laugh Shirt into a collaborative effort, working with other thinkers and artists to create new designs. He uploads a new design each week, so there's plenty of room for fresh partnerships. 

In fact, he says he's open to anyone sending him an email with ideas or suggestions. He is not on social media, so that's really the only way to find or contact him.

This shirt pays tribute to the greatest of all personality traits: paranoia. [100% cotton]


No is a Complete Sentence. - Women's Tank Top $27.00



I'm Lindsey, founder of FerrisBuilt. I live in Seattle, Washington, with my identical twin daughters. I lost my company of 12 years due to Covid in the spring of 2020 (an event production company) and had to figure out a way to pivot and make a living when the industry that I've worked in my entire 25+ career - was shut down. As a single parent, this was a bit scary, to say the least!
I decided to pursue my creative side in July 2020 and see if I could make a go of my wood art and apparel designs I've been doing as a "side hustle" for a few years - and figured "why not now?" My motivation was to still be a business owner as I enjoy that challenge and find a way to have a work schedule that I can prioritize my time around my children's schedule.
My apparel & gifts are a way that I express things I feel strongly about with topics such as mental health, self-care, inspiring women, and current events. I also have one-of-a-kind wood wall art I create out of my woodshop in Seattle, Washington (part of my own self-care practice!)

No is a complete sentence design on a women's fit tank top.

The color in the main image is "Black"

The modern, relaxed fit and round neckline make this tank a must-have to go with your favorite jeans and sneakers. 100% airlume cotton (fiber content may vary for a few colors)


The end. Those were all the gifts I wanted to share today. Contact me if you want to be part of the next one. 😍

Social Movement for Acceptance for People with Down Syndrome - The GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge on June 5, 2021

Hi There..... Are you up for a challenge? Would you want to take part in a social movement to get acceptance for people with Down Syndrome?

As some of you may already know, at the end of the year, I always write a blog about a good cause. The end of the year is not nearly in sight, I know. As Franz Liszt said, Beware of missing chances; otherwise it may be altogether too late some day. 😄

Am I talking in riddles? Great, I love a good riddle. Sometimes things aren’t clear right away. That’s where you need to be patient and persevere and see where things lead. That’s another quote, but this one is from Mary Pierce. 😁

Gigi’s Playhouse is hosting a challenge on the 5th of June, so I couldn’t wait till the end of the year. They want to make the world a more accepting place for individuals of all abilities. 😍


Their motto is to change the way the world views people with Down syndrome and to send a global message of acceptance for all. 😊

This reminds me of an encounter I had a few years ago. I was in the hospital because I needed surgery on my knee. I booked a room for 2, with a view. Haha, yes, a superb view of the parking lot from the hospital. 😂

When I arrived for my surgery, they brought me to my room, and there was an elderly lady in the bed near the window. She was the worst, not only for the nurses, but for me as well. She was hooked up to an intravenous drip and wasn’t allowed to get out of bed. The nurses had told her to ring the bell if she needed to get out of bed. 😊

She was the most impatient woman I had ever met, and she kept calling the nurses for the silliest things. How the TV worked, how the remote for the hospital bed worked. I couldn’t get out of bed either, but those were questions I could have answered for her too. I was anxious to see what the night would bring. 😨

During the daytime, there had been little opportunity to rest, but nothing could have prepared me for the night. She still kept ringing the nurse’s bell for the smallest of problems. 😒

Have you ever spent the night in the hospital? Yes? Then you already know that there are fewer nurses during nighttime, so less time for silly requests. 😮

Suddenly, in the middle of the night, she got up out of bed. She didn’t think about the intravenous drip. She felt something hold her back. Instead of going back, she just pulled it out. 😲

Blood was spraying all over, but she just kept going. I woke up in an instant and rang the nurses. The room looked almost like a murder scene, and I was ever so lucky to have been a witness to it all. Can you imagine how sad I was to see her go? 😏

I prayed there would not be a new roommate. Well, you get what you deserve when you are a nonbeliever. The opposite, of course. Yay, I got a new roommate. 😟


I could tell she had down syndrome. That worried me because she was making a fuss. She didn’t want her mom to leave her alone in the hospital. By eight in the evening, her mom went home, and she asked if she could watch her TV program. I had no problem with that, so I used the remote control to turn on the TV. 😊

I had seen her glance a few times at the remote control but didn’t realize why. While she was watching her program, I took my crutches and went to the toilet. 😕

As I came out of the bathroom, I could see her hurry back into her bed. I noticed the remote control was missing. She had been rather friendly, and I wanted to keep it that way, so I acted as if nothing happened. When she went to the bathroom, I didn’t feel the urge to take the remote back. 😐

The program ended, so we watched the next one together. During the commercial break, I went back to the toilet. When I came back, the remote control was back where it was before. Again, I acted as if nothing happened. I could see that made her happy. 😃

They discharged her from the hospital the next day, but before she left, she did something unsuspected. Before she got out the door, she came to me and gave me big a hug. It was such a cheerful moment. Something I will always remember. 😍

Oh wow, it's almost 6 in the evening and I haven't even told you much about this challenge from GiGi's Playhouse


They are aiming to get 2,000+ or more individuals motivated to MOVE for change and inclusion. MOVE for your health and MOVE for global acceptance! From March 21 through to our Speedway event on June 5 you can walk, bike, golf, run, lift, play sports, swim, whatever! They challenge people to collectively participate in a physical and social movement for acceptance to prove that everyone is accepted for who they are.

How to Participate

Interview with Fashion Designer Heather Spears

Hi There..... Would you want me to cut to the chase? Ask no questions today? Start this blog post about another Fashion Designer Interview right now? 

Too bad, because I already asked you 3 questions. Did you even read them? 😨

Yes? Great, then you know I am giving some more insight into the Fashion Industry today. I love doing these Fashion Designer Interviews, and I sure hope you do too. 😍

Then again, maybe you would rather skip this first part, but you can’t leave here before you have satisfied that curiosity of yours. You have a burning desire to stay here and keep reading, almost as if you are under a spell. I bet you didn't realize that I could do that with you. 😁

It’s just like watching an extremely boring movie. The title sounds quite promising, so you get comfortable in your lazy chair to sit back and relax. You open your bag of crisps and lean back. 😋

The beginning is boring, but you convince yourself the exciting part will start soon. After half an hour, you have your doubts if it will get any better. However, you keep on watching. As the movie is past halfway, you need to decide what to do. 😯

The film isn’t getting better, by now you are no longer hopeful. You realize the movie will not get any more entertaining. Curiosity got the better of you. Will you turn it off or keep watching because you seriously want to know how it ends. Tell me, I have to know if I am the only fool that does that. 😱

Ok, let's pretend there was no beginning to this blog post and get right to the more interesting part about the answers Heather Spears gave to my questions. She is a 27-year-old independent Fashion Designer who makes costumes for clients. 😊


What kind of work do you do, or what are you studying to be?

I always jam my workday packed with a lot of different creative avenues; from design sketches to technical pattern making and garment construction and everything in-between. It feels like I am always on my toes!

Is fashion important to you? Why?

Fashion has always been important to me. I feel like it is a magnificent way to express yourself. What we wear can symbolize how we feel, things we love, and who we are. I feel like fashion has been an emotional support system for me and helps me feel good about myself, even when my mind is telling me otherwise. A cute outfit lifts my spirits more than it should, but I can’t help the fact that fashion makes me happy.  

What are your successes and how did you achieve them?

The fashion industry has been full of so many trials for me. It seems like finishing every project is at least a minor success, no matter how big or small, they each have their own little feeling of accomplishment. Being from a background of custom, more elaborate, and “out-there” creations, some of my favorite successes are on the whacky side.

They featured me on Vogue for their Met Gala Challenge from a recreation of Billy Porter’s 2019 The Blondes look. I did that a month before I designed a costume based on the animated series Rick and Morty for Adult Swim. It was a ball gown based on the classic scene of the characters jumping through the show’s iconic portal; this look is so zany, I laugh at it every time I see it. I don’t know if I love it or feel embarrassed of it, but a smile is a smile however it takes your face in the books.

Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy clothing?

The quality I wear is far more important to me than the actual brand name of the product. Brands are fun, but I feel they are something to be careful of. I don’t want to wear items just because of their name, but I wear what makes me feel my best.


Describe your personal style of clothing?

My personal style teeters between very outlandish and crazy to extremely dialed back and classy and nothing in-between. I either love to be that over-dressed showstopper or poised and elegant. I know those things don’t always walk hand-in-hand, but that is the best way to describe my personal style.
 

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look?

That might be my biggest trouble, I don’t think I ever found my personal style. There are people out there that make your jaw drop and you could point at something and know it’s so them. I have so much respect for that, but know it’s not me. I like so much about fashion that one ascetic will never be just me because I think highly of styling yourself in different ways. Maybe someday I’ll settle down, but for now, I’m going to jump from one style to the next until I can decide on who I want to be.

Do you have an influence on other people’s clothing style?

I am the go-to gal in my friend’s group for what to wear. I can’t help but talk about clothes so much that I think the answer to this one has to be as simple as “yes”. Now, I don’t know if I can take credit for being a good style influence… you can just call me the fun style influence if you want to (haha)

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?

Oh wow, that is a brilliant question! One of the big things I see I am in love with for spring/summer 2021 is painted denim bottoms. When you talk about fashion, expressing who you are, it doesn’t get better than painted denim because that can be anything. I have seen things like beautiful flowers on cut-off shorts to full pant legs done by hand from amazing artists. I love it all and hope to see this continue to grow in popularity; not only does it give an outfit some fun pops of casual color, but in just a second I can tell a bit about the person wearing them I may never know otherwise. I think that’s pretty cool.
 

What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment?

I am so not a fan of overly small bags. I know they are great for adding little bits of color, but when I’m carrying a bag, it’s like a black hole. You can pull anything out of that thing if you’re in a pinch. I can’t make good use out of a bag smaller than a decimal. As cute as they are in appearance, I don’t think they are functional enough for a girl like me who likes to carry everything and the kitchen sink.

What kind of fashion advice would you give us?

When it comes to what you wear, just be you. We live in a time where being yourself is more important and accepted than ever. I feel like fashion walks hand-in-hand with that. Wear what makes you feel good, wear what makes you feel beautiful or cool, be strange if you want to be as long as you can look in the mirror and see the wonderful person who you are looking back at you. When we see someone else killing it with being who they are; smile and know that their expression is a win for all of us.

Who is your style icon and why?

Gosh, there are so many impressive icons in style to choose from. I always lean towards people who go as far as their imagination can take them. Right now, I feel like appreciating Lady Gaga for every eye-turning moment she’s ever made possible through fashion, but also for her ability to keep a collected sophistication in her look. And you can’t forget about her overall support of others being their unique selves, either.

Is there something else you would like to share with us?

Thank you so much for the opportunity to talk fashion with you!

Thank you too, Heather, for filling in my questions. You should visit her Youtube channel. She has lots of love and passion she wants to share with the world on her channel.

Check out some of my previous Fashion Designer Interviews.

Do You Need A Stiff Neck Remedy? The Gigi Cosmetics - Electric Pulse Neck Massager

Hi There..... Do you also suffer from neck pains? Maybe what you need is a relaxing neck massage? Would you like me to tell you more about my stiff neck remedy? 

Did all this Corona madness make you feel tense, tired, hypersensitive, or even angry, perhaps? No worries, it’s absolutely natural in these times of crisis. 😵

There are places in the world where they have vaccinated lots of people, and everything is peachy. I wish I could say the same for Belgium. At the moment, only about 20% of the people have had a vaccination. 😟

All bars and restaurants are closed. If we want to go shopping, we have to book an appointment and get a maximum of 30 minutes in the store, except for the supermarkets and other essential stores. 😥

There is an evening clock, so we have to be home before midnight. I feel like 18 all over again. I always had to be home before the clock struck twelve, just like Cinderella. 😏

The fitness centers, hairdressers, beauty salons, tattoo shops are also closed, also the dancings, discotheques, and nightclubs. There are no theatres, movies or concerts. No need to go on. I suppose you get my point. Enough to get angry or unhappy about. Enough to cause stress on anybody. 😖

There are some solutions I can think of to release your tension. I could suggest you either take a cold shower to cool down, or a hot shower or bath to relax your muscles. 😁

You could go for a stroll and when somebody annoying passes, you could beat him or her up. Ah, maybe not the best idea I ever had, haha, and for all I know, you might strain another muscle. 😂

There may be a lot of solutions to this problem, but for me, the best stiff neck remedy still is a good neck massage. That's why it was such a relief they asked me to review this Electric Pulse Neck Massager from The Gigi Cosmetics 😍


First things first, though, ...

what does their website say about this device? 

Troubled by stiffness of neck and shoulder after tons of stress working overtime and lack of physical activities? Or constantly suffered from headaches, neck pain, repeated migraines, and sleeping disorders? Here is your solution:

Electric Pulse Neck Massager is an electric pulse massager that eases muscle tension and cervical fatigue.

The device has a streamlined design and its U shape was adopted in accordance with the human neck cervical.
 

The built-in magnets provide massage of human acupoints, thus benefiting the stressed muscle tissues and nervous system in general. Such magnetic therapy reduces stress and helps to improve our health via stimulation of the nerves endings by electric pulses.

Besides, due to 3D intelligent fit technology, anyone can easily adjust the electrodes according to their own neck. Also comes with a pair of electrode patches that can be used on multiple body parts, for example, neck, back, leg and waist, etc.

Order today and leave your neck pain and cervical fatigue in the past. Feel like you were 18 all over again!


Product Benefits

-Eliminates pain
-Relaxes muscles
-Promotes blood circulation
-Improves oxygen supply, microcycle, nutrition of the tissue cells
-Promotes metabolism.
- 3D intelligent fit technology
easily adjust electrode according to personal neck curve, creating a better coverage for massage
- 6 modes transferable and 10 kinds of intensity adjustable
Switch modes based on your own preferences!
-Best for relief on
Neck pain and cervical stiffness.
Arthritis in the shoulders.
Natural curvature problems (bone hyperplasia).
Irritability and fatigue due to sleep disorders (can be caused by cervical spondylitis).
Numbness in the arms and shoulders.
Edema and inflammation.
Dizziness and loss of balance.
Headaches (especially at the back of the head).
Cervical nerve pain.
High or low blood pressure.
Muscular spasms or shooting pains/ trigger points.
Knotted neck and shoulders.


I have a lot of joint and muscle problems and need to go to the physiotherapist twice a week. They recently tested my blood, and it seems there is more going on than just pain issues. They found a factor in my blood that suggests I have an immune deficiency disease. I am ever so sorry. You weren't expecting me to be ordinary, I hope. 😁

Certain days, I return from the physiotherapist and with one wrong move, my neck gets stiff all over again. Perfect time for me to test the device. 😊

How does it work

All you have to do is wet your neck with a wet towel and put the device around your neck. Turn on the device, choose between heat mode, acupuncture mode, beat mode, and massage mode, and you are good for 15 minutes. You can choose to do this one or 2 times a day. 😊

I will not tell you if it worked for me or not. Most definitely not. 😡

Ah, I got you. You thought I would not tell you, right? No, I was just fooling around. Some of you that have been following me for a while probably didn't fall for this trap. They know I always come true. 😎

Where was I? Oh yes, in the living room behind my laptop trying to write a review, and you are still patiently (or not) waiting for ...

My opinion

What can I say, it feels as if they made this neck massager especially for me? I just love the acupuncture mode, beat mode, and massage mode. 😍

The only thing I am not that fond of is the heat mode. If I read correctly in the book, the heat goes up to 42 degrees, and that's too much for me. Ah, I know, I am a scaredy-cat with heat. I am not a fan of a hot shower either. So the only problem could be me. 😏

There is a solution though, for my problem. When I put a towel in between my neck and the device, the heat is not that strong. 😀

I would definitely check out their website

They have top-quality beauty products. Here are a few examples.




Their mission is to elevate, enable, approve, and eventually assemble confidence in ladies around the globe through astounding items that empower both inward and external beauty and otherworldly edification while additionally giving chances to self-improvement and budgetary reward. 😊

Hope you like my blog.....Until next time.....Have a nice day

The Best Guide on how to perfect your makeup looks - makeup guide from Lipsticksmoothie

Hi There..... Would you like to perfect your makeup looks? Do you love to do makeup? 

No, no, not kiss and make up. Let me rephrase the question. Would you like to know more about some great makeup tutorials? 😉

Ah, now I got you interested, haven’t I? A lot of us like to do makeup, but not everybody can create stunning looks. Often I see pictures on Instagram, thinking how sublime is that. When I tried to recreate their makeup looks, it turned out to be a pure disaster. 😬

Like a lot of you, I never learned how. Back in the seventies, most of us only used one color of eyeshadow, and only on the eyelid, nothing above the crease. 😊

Oops, almost forgot that some of you may not know what this crease is. Your crease is the part of your eyelid that is between your eyebrow bone and your moving eyelid. So the only part where we wore eyeshadow in the seventies was on the part that moves when you blink your eyes. 😄

It’s also the part where the skin loses its elasticity and wrinkles and folds appear if you are my age. That’s why I am keen to do this now, before my crease totally disappears underneath the sagging skin. Oh my, I am imagining myself performing as a singer still and having to lift the skin on top of my eyes to show people my eye makeup look. 😂

Can you imagine how happy I was to receive this Makeup Guide from Lipsticksmoothie in return for my honest opinion?

I will first show you some of the looks I tried to make with the help of the makeup tutorials from the book.

1. Nude Look



This was my first attempt at making some of those makeup looks. You really get step-by-step instructions on how you achieve this nude look. 


There is a picture for every step you take, and what brush you have to use. You also get a lot of examples of variations on this same look. You can also take notes in the tracker chart. There is a column for your date, reaction (whether you liked it or not), your thoughts, and the colors you used.

2. Bold Look



For my second attempt, I tried to do a bolder look. There are a lot more steps in this one, and they are all illustrated with pictures.


The example showed more red and purple shades, but at the moment I don't have those in my stash. I suppose it is all a question of experimenting with colors until you get to the one you like best. Then if you know exactly where to apply the lighter, where the in-between, and where the darker colors you are on the right path. There are also a few suggestions in the book of combinations you can try.

3. Liner



My third attempt was a look that focused more on the eyeliner. This is a great everyday look if you ask me, although it took 8 steps also to get there. 

 

Practice, however, makes perfect, and my makeup looks may not be perfect yet, but I am certain that with the help of this book, I will get there.

This is such a great guide. Part 1 is an educational section that covers all the basics of makeup and techniques. I was so happy they included this in the book because there were so many things I wasn't aware of. There were so many tips and tricks, and what I liked most were the dos and don'ts. 

It's not just about the eyes, but you also get to learn about primers, foundations, concealers, highlighters, powders, contouring, bronzers, blushes, and lips. 

I have seen a lot of YouTube movies, but I found it so hard to recreate those looks afterward. This book was the best solution for me. I still have a lot of looks I want to try, so this book is guaranteed fun for so many weeks to come.

Hope you like my blog.....Until next time.....Have a nice day

Interview with Fashion Instagram Influencer Samya Mohamed

Hi There..... Can I make you happy today with a new Instagram Influencer interview? Yes? No?

If you are into women’s fashion, I am sure you will love it.

I only interview Instagram Influencers that are active in fashion. That being said, I would love to find a few more, because I am almost out. 😨

It’s not like I can go buy them at the supermarket. I wonder which rack of Influencers I would be on? Fun, somewhat crazy, wrinkled, or even kind, maybe? As long as it’s not the bottom rack, those are usually the things that are the least popular. 😉

Maybe I don’t have them lined up because I have made it a rule that they would have to have a minimum of 15.000 followers. Then again, why would I interview them if they were not special? Nothing interesting about an influencer with less. Ooh, that would mean I am not interesting either. Hm, Am I???? 😲

Maybe someday, if I ever make it to 15.000 followers, I might answer my own questions. Oh my, what on earth would I say? Ah, no need to worry. I may never make it that far. I could fall down the stairs this weekend and break my fingers, you never know. However, worrying may be better than having an accident? 😧

I remember my fall down the stairs a few months ago vividly. Not that I broke anything, except my nail, but it wasn’t the most enjoyable thing to do. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Not the most fun pass time. 😏

So who is going to be that special woman on my blog post for today? Let me introduce you to Samya Mohamed. She has an amazing 110.000 followers on Instagram. Let's see what her answers to my questions are. 😊


Do you have a day job? Full-time or Part-time?

Full- time Influencer And Amazon Vine Reviewer

How many hours do you spend on Instagram on average?

5-6 hours a day on average not including content creation

Is fashion important to you? Why? 

Fashion is very important to me. As a creator my entire life is based on how I feel, I do my best to create an overall fashionable environment for myself to improve my mood and creativity. 
To me, fashion isn’t just an article of clothing but more of a lifestyle experience, a feeling, a vision that only you can articulate and bring to life. It plays a big part in the Brands I collaborate with and the quality of styles and products I share with my followers. 

Fashion brings life to the content ideas I create for the brands, but more importantly, a fashionable lifestyle makes me feel powerful. 

What are your successes and how did you achieve them?

Here are two of my most recent achievements, which brought me to where I am today. The first big campaign I did was for Maybelline. It totally changed my business goals. 
I applied to the campaign thinking I wouldn’t get accepted because of my followers being low. They approved me for the campaign with a note to replicate some content I had previously created for another brand. 
That’s when I realized I was struggling with being a part-time influencer because I focused on all the wrong things. Being an influencer wasn’t about the followers or likes, which I had spent so much time on, and got me nowhere. 
The Brands wanted creative content, content that followers would engage with. This gave me an upper hand to focus more on my content and engagement with my followers. 
The second was an Event called BeautyCon. They invited me as a 'Guest Influencer'. It was and still feels surreal, one of the greatest moments I’ve had. I had been an influencer for less than a year then. I did not know what I was getting into. On that day I met so many incredible brands and even made some collaborations. It led me to quit my Day job and pursue influencing full time. 

Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy clothing?

No. As we all love the luxury of designer brands, I prefer creating looks using all or any brand I can find. What’s a vision for creation if you're limited to specific brands, right? 
The past year as an Amazon Influencer and Vine Reviewer has changed my entire perspective on fashion. 
I get the chance to try out and review so many small brands with such beautiful quality designs, then I share them in my shop for my followers that want to recreate my looks. Creating a shop that caters to my community's budget and style needs is priceless. I do have luxury items in my Amazon Shop for those who can afford the more pricy accessories.



Describe your personal style of clothing?

It’s definitely a mix between Tomboy, Chic & Artsy 

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look? 

My main style has always been Sophisticated, over time I incorporated comfort, sporty and chic. Nowadays, you can always find me in a Crop Top, High Waisted Trousers, Sneakers, and a hat. 

Do you have an influence on other people’s clothing style?

Surprisingly, I never would’ve thought so. However, I now have followers who purchase my styles through my Amazon shop or any Fashion collaboration Links I share. It feels fantastic to see others enjoy styles I’ve selected and reviewed. 

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?

I don’t follow Trends. I enjoy creating my own trends, all based on my expression. I’m the type of person who will go out in all white all year long. I will say, high-waisted jeans & trousers are always a popular trend in my eyes.

What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment?

I’m not a big fan of wide-leg pants, I feel it’s not a versatile trend for everyone. It’s a look that only a specific body can rock. 



What kind of fashion advice would you give us?

Organizing is key, knowing where all your things are, can make or break a look. Don’t look up trends or styles and try to compete with the market. By the time you reach a trend, it's moved on to another right in front of your eyes. You’ll only be compared rather than praised. 
Often I start with one item I want to wear then layer it with pieces until I get the look I want. Expand your creativity, you’d be surprised what’s in your wardrobe. 

Who is your style icon and why?

Karl Lagerfeld. Karl was and still is a Legend in my book. The depth of his creativity and fearless styles have always inspired me to do better.



She has quite an amazing story to tell, don't you agree? Thank you, Samya, for taking the time to answer my questions. 😍
