What You'll Need: 5 Camping Must-Haves!

Many people go camping during the summer, whether its Ina tent, trailer, or cabin, so you have to look your best, but it can be difficult at times. 

Here are a few things to help you look your best as your camping:

Dry shampoo: using dry shampoo, like Batiste, will help you have good smelling, clean looking hair for the week, without needing a shower. Yeah, it's probably not the most hygienic option, but its better ham going a week without anything in your hair.

Foundation with SPF: Using a SPF foundation/bb cream will make your skin look better while it protects your skin from the sun. If your gonna be camping, you'll most likely be outside, so we don't want any sun damage on your face!

Sea salt hair spray: If you'll be in water, pick up some sea salt spray for your hair! The spray will give your hair some natural beach looking waves, so it looks more controlled when it dries!

Sun protection spray (for hair): protect your hair from the rays of the sun with a sun protection spray.

Facial cleansing/make up removing wipes: If you can't properly wash your face, bring some cleansing wipes to freshen up your face at night and in the mornings. 

Those items should be at the top f got lists! Most of these can be picked up at local stores such as target.

DIY: Half Denim High Waisted Shorts



What You'll Need:

-Scissors
-Bleach
-Warm water (sink water)
-High waist jeans (long pants)
-Tweezer
-Sandpaper (optional for distressing)
-Large bucket or use kitchen sink.

What to do:
1. Cut your high waisted pants (you can find many at Goodwill lol) to the length you will want the shorts.
2. Use the tweezers, sandpaper (optional) and your fingers to pull the threads out of the bottom of the shorts. (As you can see in the picture, they are distressed. You can easily do this with a tweezer. The shorts might distress a little more on their own after bleaching them.)
3. Distress any other areas of the shorts you want. (You can make rips in the front, or whatever)
4. Fill your bucket (You can also use a plugged kitchen sink to do this) with 2 part water, 1 part bleach. Make sure the water is warm.
5. Put the WHOLE shorts under the bleach, in an even position. Hold them in there for around 10-15 minutes, until the the whole pair of shorts are a light denim color, as seen on the right side of the shorts in the picture above. (Make sure that if your hands are in the bleach, to wear gloves)
6. After the shorts are that color, ring them out. Then hold only one side (in the picture the right was done) in the bleach/water. You can watch the color until it changes to the shade you want them to be.
7. After you find the right shades, you want to wash, then dry your shorts alone in the washer & dryer. You can use laundry soap, but don't use bleach.
8. After they come out, you can wear them! You can also add any lace or other things to the shorts. 

Email me your results & how you wear them! FashionGeek0@Gmail.com You can be featured on here!

What I've been watching, where I've been shopping, & what I've been eating!


Well, I haven't posted in a while, but just to catch you up on the latest things I have been doing Fashion related..

What I've been watching:

I have been obsessed with Americas Next Top Model for the past year or so, and I have been watched new episodes, and reruns of the show non stop!
Also, I've been watching Project runway, which is one of my favorites, as well!

Where I've been shopping:
I've recently been to the mall multiple times, checking out the different stores to shop at, and I've picked two of my favorites to stop by. The first one is Forever 21. The mainstream store, actually is very fashion forward, for a store that many know about, and shop at. Not to mention the prices, which are very average. Forever 21 is seen on celebrities to teenage girls, making the store more and and more visable to other people.
Another shop I have been looking forward to stopping at is Vera Bradley. Vera Bradley is a mostly known bag shop. The similar but unique fabric that is mostly seen has become a huge trend, also to people of all ages. The store also carries small amounts of other articles of fashion, but their bags are what they are known for.

What I've been eating:

Since it's summer, I've been trying to eat a little healthier for the swim wear season! Although, I am a very slim girl naturally, I have to heat healthy to keep my figure and to keep my health up. For a snack, I've been eating Fruit Strips, which are like healthy fruit roll ups! In a way.. I've enjoyed the raspberry one the most, just for a pointer!
I've also been obsessed with Panera Bread. If you've never been to a Panera, its a healthy fast food resteraunt. I wouldn't call it fast food, but you can take it to go, and its done pretty quickly, so.. Anyways, they have salads, soup, and snadwhiches, and they are also a pastery shop! I love their foods! It's actually one of my favorite places to eat, at the moment.

Comment some of your favorites, and let me know what you've been up to!
