describe

Describe your beauty routine? Shower, dress, brush teeth, brush/style hair, cover up, powder, eyeliner, eyeshadow, mascara, little lip gloss and go! LOL

Describe your hair? Shoulder length-ish, dark red, layered. Usually tied back. Wavy/curly.

Describe your personal style? A little bit of everything. Lots of layers, fun socks. Love stripes. (A bit fruitsy, I guess?)

do you...

Like metrosexual boys? Sure.

Like accessories? Not too many. I just wear my rings, mostly, and hair clips.

Like high heels? Yes, since I'm tiny. But usually just short ones.

Like matchy matchy, or mix and match? Mix!

Spend a lot of money on beauty products in general? Not tonnes, though probably more than I should.

Shop online for clothes? Socks, mostly. lol

Steal style ideas from friends? If they have a cool idea.

favorite...?

Article of clothing in your closet? My white skirt. The one that flares. Not the other four. lol

Makeup line? Avon. They're the only company that makes a base that's pale enough for my skin!

Skincare line? Biore.

Perfume? Healing Gardens' green tea.

Colours to wear? White, brown, black, light green, pink.

what stuff

What is a trend you dislike the most? People who where their pants around their knees.

What is your fashion philosophy? Have one focal point.

What kind of shoes do you like? Ballet flats or low heels.

What is your biggest fashion problem? Not being able to buy things I like because my boobs keep them from fitting right.

What old trends do you think should come back? Victorian garb! lol

What one piece are you dying to add to your wardrobe? More corsets/older style clothing.

misc.

How long does it take you to get ready in the morning? from waking up? 1-1.5 hours.

Ever been to a fashion show? Amateur ones.

Would you ever go out in public without makeup? If I'm just doing something like grabbing something from the grocery or am having a particularly lazy day.

Who do you think has great style? Emilie Autumn, YUKI, Kanako.

If you had a fashion budget of 1 million dollars, where would you shop, and why? I would love to hit up some boutiques and markets in Europe. I found some great stuff when I lived out there. (But could only afford to buy a small bit.)

Is there anything you absolutely CAN'T wear? Anything that you can't wear a bra with.

If you had to pick one designer to wear for the rest of your life, who would it be, and why? Probably someone like Vivienne Westwood. Though, really, I'd hate to have to stick to just one thing.

Want to tag 5 people to do this, too? Nope. :)

Oh yeah, I'm tiny. I get teased about it all the time. Mind, I joke about it too.

Haha. Yeah. I just love the corsets and lacing, I think.

I get mine at shoppers (though I think it's also at Wal-Mart?). They've got a few flavours and do soap and stuff, too.

I have to admit I love makeup. It's like a movable mask.
