Hero Status: Elvira

There are a lot of reasons why I love Elvira (her punk dog, her bad jokes, quirky personality, love for all things spooky, determination, awesome clothes etc etc etc) but one of my absolute favorite things is how badass she is. Elvira dresses how she wants which is usually in her very low cut long black dress that shows off more than cleavage. She wears it comfortably and for no one else, she wears it because she wants to. However almost every person she runs into either chastises her for her clothes or thinks it's an invitation to sexually harass her. Naturally being the strong woman she is she takes none of this shit from anyone. If it's throwing a man out of her house, hitting her groping boss or pouring beer onto the laps of perverts she let's the world now that she is not an object for them to use. She loves her body, she belongs to herself and lives for herself. Her feminism and spookiness has totally changed my life.

After having a really hard week (panic attacks everyday) I was able to go to Walmart and Chapters with the help of my mom (I have very bad anxiety and depression) and got a few things! That Chapters I went to ended up having a small fire and we all had to get evacuated out into the cold. Five fire trucks showed up and everything was fine. We were all able to go back in and I spent a couple more hours looking at books.

From Walmart I got some body lotion and some wet n wild makeup (I'll upload that later) and got the Simple Eye Balm. I've heard some pretty good things for it and have been looking for an eye cream for my sensitive eyes. It has vitamin B5, vitamin E, bisabolol, Shea butter, and jojoba oil. It doesn't have any perfume or dyes. It comes out clear and you tap it into your eye area. I think it would be ok to wear under makeup.

My love for Laura Palmer is never ending, I swear. When going through 8tracks I stumbled upon a playlist with the song 'Laura' by Bat For Lashes and I'm totally obsessed with it. It's such a beautiful song. I think this song will always hold a special place in my heart as well as Twin Peaks.

There's something about looking at old photos of myself, when I was a little tyke, that makes me feel like I'm on some weird self discovery trip. It's strange to look at yourself so young, when you were hardly really a person at all, and comparing it to who you are now. How have I changed in the past 12+ years? How did I grow and change and become someone different right under my nose. Every picture feels like a little piece of a puzzle to show me who I am and how to keep growing. They show that there was a time before bad things happened. Back when the small things in life were life, and I regret to say things that I forgot about for so long. We forget and overlook so many things that we did when were younger that it feels like a part of us goes missing and we can't remember where or when we lost it or how to get it back.

Once Upon a Dream [Part 1]

As you all know the movie Maleficent is coming out as well as a Mac line dedicated to the movie and villain. You're probably just as excited as I am until you remember just how pricy Mac cosmetics are. The average for lipsticks are 20$ and up, nails range around the same price, and face makeup around 30-40$ and this is when it's not apart of a limited collection. I've decided to find some wallet friendly makeup that still gives that Maleficent villain vibe which is mostly green, purple and pink.

I really love when people draw on their bottom lashes. I would put down a good eyeshadow base around the eye first then use an eyeliner like Covergirl liquid Line Blast, and then set it with an eyeshadow. Of course you can try liquid eyeliner or even gel.You should of course use a waterproof formula. A bonus is to set around the makeup with translucent powder to absorb any moisture since moisture leads to creasing and wear. If you feel your base is too creamy you can lightly blot it. What's great about this look is that you can go bold and dramatic or blend it and connect the 'lashes' together with eyeliner and pop on some shadow on your lids. Really experiment with it.TRY drawing on the lashes slanted to make them look more natural.

It's Monday and already Justin Bieber has MASSIVELY ripped of Paramore. I have never in my 17 years off life seen such a obvious rip off. Justin released his new song called "We Were Born For This" (just like paramores "we were born for this") BUT it gets better don't you worry. He then stole paramore fanart for the cover.
