It gave me an Infinity within a number of pages

The fault in Our Stars
I'd like to dedicate this post to none other than Hazel Grace Lancaster. I absolutely love her style, since it's casual, and Hazel Grace pulls the look off very well. Hold on, let me just fan girl a lot before I continue.

YOU NEED TO READ THE FAULT IN OUR STARS NOW. LIKE RIGHT NOW. IT GAVE ME AN INFINITY WITHIN A NUMBER OF PAGES.

 I'd recommend these for casual weekend looks, and I absolutely love the look of a basic tee paired with jeans and converse. Personally, I would wear this everyday, especially if you're running late for school one day.

 Amsterdam oh Amsterdam. Hazel wears and adorable deep green pea coat. I love this color show much, since it's classic and bold. It adds an element of sophistication to her usual outfits, and I thought it was just an extremely elegant coat. When combined with the skinny jean and plain tee, it balances out everything perfectly. However, I just absolutely love how Hazel wears these black pointed flats, since it really ties the outfit together. It's just something about the pointed element, that changes the vibe.

 Now, I read THE FAULT IN OUR STARS and it CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER. It was just the most thoughtful, tragic, yet hilarious book out there, and it kept me very entertained. It made me feel grateful for what I had, yet it thought me more about Cancer and I learned a lot from this book.

Okay?
Okay.


“People will say it’s sad she leaves a lesser scar, that fewer remember her, that she was loved deeply, but not widely. But it’s not sad, Van Houten. It’s triumphant. It’s heroic. Isn't that the real heroism?” - Augustus Waters

“What else? She is so beautiful. You don’t get tired of looking at her. You never worry if she’s smarter than you: You know she is. She is funny without ever being mean. I love her. I am so lucky to love her, Van Houten. You don’t get to choose who hurts you in this world, but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices. I hope she likes hers.”

Spring Hair

hair ideas
Welcome friends! I haven't posted in a long time, but it's now or never. Today, I'm dedicating my post to hair.

FIRST OF ALL I'd like to point out affordable shampoos and conditioners. Personally, I've tried out many types of conditioners, including high end ones. However, I BELIEVE that these work just as well.

Recently, I've cut my hair, and short hair is the best thing ever. I chopped off about four inches, so my hair is shoulder length. The beauty of short hair is that it's easy to manage, and in my opinion, looks fresh and polished.

I'm not all for the messy Alexa Chung curls, which she does rock, since I try to minimize as much heat as possible. I wash my hair about every 3 days, but before you freak, I shower everyday, I just don't wash my hair because every time you shampoo, you are stripping it of your natural oils, and it deteriorates hair after a while. I also don't dye my hair, so it's all natural, but if you are looking for a different color, try lemon juice. Just simply apply juice to strands of hair, and step outside and soak up the sunshine for about an hour. The UV rays from the sun are able to soak deep into the hair that way, bleaching it naturally. I believe deeply in keeping everything natural, and I never put any products in my hair, since it can cause build up.

Since I dislike heavy and oil stripping shampoo, I use the Pantene Aqua Shampoo that contains no sulfates, and it's light, so it'll give you lots of volume. Sulfate shampoo rids the hair of gunk, while keeping it healthy.

For conditioner, I love using Dove and coconut based products. I find that you do need conditioner in your roots or the scalp, since it keeps it at a healthy level of moisture without letting the scalp dry off and flake or having over oily hair. If you add a little bit of conditioner, it keeps your hair looking healthy.

STYLE:
Now that it's Spring, I love the idea of bohemian hair bands with flowers and braids. Of course, it would look gorgeous if you had long hair, and you can experiment with lots of accessories. Bows have an element of girlishness and I recommend it if you're dressing up.

PS. I'll be back
