BACK TO SCHOOL

It's almost that time again! It's time to go back to school! Although most of you may have started school already, others (like me) still have about a week to go. If you're like me, you've probably been thinking that same question, that DREADFUL question, WHAT DO I WEAR?! We've all been there. In today's article, I'll be giving you some back to school tips on how to get back to school in style (as lame as that sounds). 


1. Make-Up:
If you're a boy, you can skip this part, unless you like wearing make-up to school! That's cool too. Most of you probably want to have that flawless face for school but also give off that minimal make-up look. For a flawless base, try a sheer foundation or even a BB cream which gives the right amount of coverage to still look natural. Nowadays, power brows are so in. (Cara Delevingne, anyone?) A girl's eyebrows are her best feature. If you have AMAZING eyebrows, do you really need to worry about anything else? To make your eyebrows stand out a little more, try a brow pencil a shade lighter than your actual brow color, so they don't look too harsh. For the eyes, eyeshadow may be a bit too much for school. So to make your eyes stand out without having too much product, try tightlining your eyes with a black liner, to really make your eye color pop out. And for those who like a stronger look, go for a black cat eye. For the cheeks, go for a warm, subtle color, just to give off a little color in your face and not have your whole face one shade. Lastly, find the perfect everyday lip shade that is close to your natural lip shade, so it's not too vibrant but still gives a little pop of color!

2. Outfit:
I prefer stores like Zara, H&M, Brandy Melville, Topshop, Urban Outfitters, and sometimes Forever 21. I personally prefer a more dressed up look, which is why Zara and Topshop are my favorites. If you live in America, you might not find a Topshop, but luckily they have an online website which is equally as great! Online shopping is convenient too. One of my favorite online stores are Nastygal and Dailylook. Dailylook is great to see complete outfits, so you don't have to put pieces together yourself! Here are some of my favorite outfits put together by Dailylook.






For the guys, I love stores like Zara, Topman, H&M, and Urban Outfitters. I love a grunge look on a guy, but I also love a well put together outfit. The classier, the better. Here are some of my favorite outfits put together by Urban Outfitters.





I hope you all enjoyed these tips and figure out your back to school outfits! Good luck!
