Retouched

Hi everyone,
 I know, back so soon but I feel like i have so many ideas and I can't wait. I know I am really late on this  "trend" of photoshopping pictures. Before today I never used any kind of photo shop (besides cropping or rotating the picture). I found this great website called, ipiccy.com, which you can basically become a new person in your pictures. With some of the features, i couldn't even recognize myself. And don't get me wrong with photoshopping the picture, it was really fun. But do we really need photo shop? When you upload a picture onto social networking sites, most times the viewers are going to know when you changed the picture. However, we look at the after photo and say "omg yeah, that looks so much better". Someone please tell me, what is wrong with the before picture.

Before              &               After

 You can clearly tell the areas I changed. I am a ginger, there is no way I could ever be that tan. And my hair and eyes are not that bright. Lastly, I whiten my teeth because there was a feature for it. Emily Dickinson said "Beauty is not caused. It is". Every girl should feel beautiful without going through all this work. Go look yourself in the mirror and tell yourself "you are beautiful". Because it is true. Have a lovely week.

Pinterest is my interest

Hi everyone,
  Even if you live under a rock, you heard about Pinterest. I love in the beginning of every school year, teachers are usually a like "what are your hobbies"? Uhm I am pro pinner.  To say it is adicting is an understatement. Pinterest is the ultimate inspiration website ( and a great way of killing time especially during study halls).  My favorite board is 'My Style' board, I have over 2,000 pins on it. People's outfits on the site are beyond perfect and how some people can make their nail so pretty, I can't even understand. I plan on trying all the DIY pins I posted for the upcoming weeks. Lets all cross our fingers that they work out.
If you want to check out any of my boards, you can search 'cinnamon30'!

State of The Union

Hey,
As I was watching "The Carrie Diaries" on onDemand, it really inspired me. Its ironic that this show takes place in the past but it makes me excited for my future.I think we has girls, look at Carrie Bradshaw, because whether it is in the the "Carrie Diaries" or "Sex and the City", she is never afraid to take a chance. We are always told take more chances because you only have one life to live, blah blah blah. And for some reason the New Year has struck something in me. I feel so inspired, and I just want to get out and do everything possible. I am making my own prom dress, my best friend and I made our own YouTube Channel, and I will be spending St. Patrick's Day in Ireland!!! So Thanks Carrie Bradshaw for getting me off my butt and letting me make 2013, lucky 13!!!

Beauty Favorites

Hey,
Like I said in my post yesterday, this blog will be a mix of everything. I thought I would show you my favorite make-up products and hair accessories. I am far from a make-up artists or expert. I still end up poking myself in the eye with the eyeliner. But anyways here they are!

Ta-Da

Revlon ColorStay (01 Copper Spice). Goes great with blue eyes!

Vera Wang Princess. I love the light, girly smell. Plus the caps can come off and be worn as rings.

These are my two favorite nail polishes. On the left,  its Maybelline New York Color Show(170 Pinkalicious). And on the right, is Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear
(360 For Sher-bert) 

MAC Superslick Liquid  Eye Liner(On the Hunt), I love MAC products.

Anywear Hair Remington(Shown in Silver, Brown, and Light Pink)

I like this lipstick because it is double-sided,  so you can choose what look you want!  I got this in my Birchbox.
Laura Geller Makeup(Caribbean Kiss).

Clinique High Impact Mascara(01 Black). I got this as a free sample from Sephora with my 'Beautyinsider' points. When i wore this today I got a lot of compliments on my lashes.

The Start of Something New

Hey, 

My name is Maggie. I recently made a bucket list of things I want to do before I go off to college. So one of  things on my list is to have my own blog. I am not sure how to blog really because its my first time doing anything like this. I think my blog is going to be a mix of things. I want to post every time I check something of my bucket list, hopefully it will motivate me to finish the list. I also plan on posting about fashion, which I will be majoring in college. And lastly, I want this blog to be playful and fun, and all around girly!
