TIP Tuesday!

So today is the first of many "Tip Tuesdays". Every Tuesday i will be posting a tip on fashion, beauty, saving money, and just about everything. So if you need a tip of anything just leave a comment here on or the official Everyday Glamourista Facebook fan page. (just search for "EVERYDAY GLAMOURISTA). So moving on to today's tip...

So i know many of you looove jewelry but many of you are also allergic to it. So if you want to wear the very cute jewelry pieces from places like forever21, H&M, and Charlotte Russe just keep reading my tips!

Step 1: For rings, necklaces, and bracelets you can apply a thin coat of clear nail polish. This will help with the skin irritation or green color some fake jewelry can leave on your skin. I normally do apply the clear polish to most of my fake jewelry pieces even tho I'm not allergic because it helps prevent tarnishing and losing stones. The longer lasting the nail polish is the better it is.

Step 2: Unfortunately its not such an easy fix for earrings. Sometimes the only thing you can do is try to find hypoallergenic earrings. Besides that you can sometimes buy hypoallergenic or silver earring earring hooks and replace them. Sometimes its possible and sometimes its not. You can sometimes pick them up at Claire's, jewelry stores, and craft stores.

So i hope this tip helped some of you out and sorry for not putting up pictures ILY ♥

DIY: Fringe Crop Top

So I have been feeling under the weather but that’s no excuse… so I got my rest and came up with today’s post! This is a bit more hands on but I thought it was a fun idea to share with you all especially since its so easy. Basically its putting two of summers fun trends: the crop top & fringe. Like I said, its super easy and resourceful. So lets put some life back into that old t-shirt. Enjoy ♥

SUPPLIES: T-Shirt, Scissors, White  Eyeliner or Pins

Step 1: Start by picking out a t-shirt. I don’t recommend using a good one on your first try in case you mess up. I usually just pick an old one or buy a cheap one. One that if I ruin I wont be mortified over.

Step 2: Start by putting it on and measuring 1) how high you want the fringe to go, 2) how wide you want the neck line (regular, v-neck, or off the shoulder). I went with off the shoulder in this case. I used a white eyeliner to mark it because it will come off when washed. For a white shirt you can use pins to mark it off or you can eyeball it.

Step 3: Cut the neckline and the bottom hem of the shirt. Remember that its easy to over cut so do it little by little. A tip for cutting the neckline is to have the lowest part be at the same level as the original neck line. You don’t really have to worry about the hem being neat because its going to be cut anyways.

Step 4: Begin cutting you fringe. I like to keep the side seems of the shirt so I cut the back and front edge into one piece. Just cut the fringe to your liking. Some higher up and some lower down the shirt, but don’t cut the length of the individual fringe just yet. The widths don’t have to be consistent. 

Step 5: So after cutting you may notice that the fringe is flat (picture 1). To get the rolled fringe just tug each individual fringe from base to tip. You can also tug along the neckline to get a neater finish. VOILA! Your done.

Bonus Steps: You can trim the fringe to different various lengths. You can also add fringe to the sleeves. All I did for mine was cut the sleeves hems off and tugged on it to have it roll up

I REALLY HOPE YOU ALL ENJOYED THIS D.I.Y. TUTORIAL. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FEEL FREE TO ASK ♥

Top 10 under $10 {Beauty Tools}

So today's post is about carrying everything including the kitchen sink with you lol. Well maybe not quite. But these are definitely some essentials i like to carry around. You can always tailor this list to your life style. And i do have to give credit to my friend Wendy for this blog post idea :]

Ok so one thing I try to always carry is a mini sewing kit. You never know when you might lose a button or rip you favorite top. And somehow these things always happen at the most inconvenient times. With this kit and a quick trip to the bathroom... problem fixed:]
I picked mine up at Dollar Tree but they sell them just about everywhere.

Maybe your ears need to be cleaned or you need a quick make up fix... IDK but they are super handy. You can pick them up in the travel section of most drugstores for about $1.99.

So we all know this isn't the best brush but it get the job done. And it being able to fold in prevents random things from getting caught in the bristles(?). And I love having the mirror with it so you do always have one. You can pick one up anywhere. I just got my Hello Kitty one from Target for $1

These are soooo cute. They are emery boards in a match style package. They are small and easy to carry. I don't usually carry nail clippers so i like to have a nail file. You can usually find these for around $2.

Simply put double sided tape thats safe on your skin and clothes. Best uses for this are falling straps, low cut necklines, and gaps on shirts (button to button) $1-$10 depending where you find it... I do like to keep this inside my sewing kit.

I try to always carry baby wipes. They are good for sanitizing but gentle enough for makeup removal. I like the Huggies Naturally Refreshing Cucumber Green Tea (not in picture) wipes because they are thicker and smell nice. At home i have a full size box but for my purse or travel i like the 16 count. Its smaller and easier to carry. You can also get the refillable plastic case but i prefer the bag style because its more flexible and can fit in more of my purses. $1-$1.99

Carmex is a must. I know its not Vaseline but it can be used for the same things. I use it for chapped lips and if I'm my skin is dry i even use a little for that. I find this is easier to find and carry than the travel size Vaseline. You can usually pick up for under $2

So idk if this is a world wide thing but in my culture we believe that putting your purse on the floor is bad luck (money wise) and on top of that it very unsanitary. So lately the biggest  craze are these purse hooks which are a genius idea! I know you do have the option to hang it from you chair but i had a friend whos purse was stolen when she did that so i don't recommend it. Anyways... you can usually pick one up for $10. And as of today i know Old Navy had some on clearance for $1.99!

Tampon & Pad cases are a must. 1) I work with alot of guys and dont need them to know my personal monthly business  2) I dont like having to rummage through my purse when i really need to use the ladies room and finally 3) they wont be ripped open when i don finally find it in the black hole i call my purse. So yea. Kotex sells some really cute pre-filled ones for about $5

And lastly band aids! They aren't just awesome for cuts but for hurtful shoes. Just place them where you need extra protection. I personally like the Hello Kitty ones from Target for $1.99 but you can get the regular ones for $1. But that extra dollar is worth it when a guy friend needs a band aid lol

... let me know your must haves in the comment ♥

Yay! A crack in your nail can be a good thing 0_o

A couple months back O.P.I. came out with the Katy Perry line of nail polishes. The line was pretty cute but the one polish everyone went bananas over was the "Shatter" polish. It was a black topcoat polish that made a crackle effect on top of any other polish. So it seemed almost impossible to get your hands on because of the high demand. I was fortunate enough to get mine almost as soon as they came out because i was on the list. Well now the crackle effect polishes are being offered by other brands in various colors and with high supply. So here is what i have come across ♥

This is the original crackle effect polish. It's OPI's "shatter"...
It came in ONLY one color!
$8.50

The second round of crackle polishes just recently came out but this time in various colors...
Broken Heart (pink), Crushed Candy (blue), Black Mesh (black), Cracked Concrete (grey),
Lightning Bolt (white), Fault Line (purple).
$5.99-$8.00

Today I went into Walgreen's and saw this brand spanking new display. Its the newest line of crackle effect polishes. They are by Sally Hansen and therefore alot easier to get your hands on than the OPI and China Glaze brands. This is also the largest variations of colors...
Snow Blast, Fractured Foil, Antiqued Gold, Distressed Denim, Vintage Violet, Fuchsia Shock, Cherry Smash, & Ink Splatter.
$6.99

This isn't a crackle polish but I thought I would share it because it looks awesome under all of the crackle polishes (except silver & grey). This is Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear nail polish in "Celeb City"

well i hope you all enjoyed my quick post. and make sure to leave any questions or comments down below :]
