My First Makeup Contest Win!

Hello Lovelies!
 
Well.... I was about to lay down for the night and I had this sudden urge to check my stuff (social media) before I headed to bed, and boy am I glad I did. I popped onto Facebook to find out that I won first place in the advanced category for a pinup contest held by SexyLuna Makeup and Groovy MiMi. Considering pinup is kinda sorta my thing I am super excited because I have never really won anything, I did get third place in a pinup contest awhile ago held by a company out of Chicago though.
 
I now am so excited that I really don't think I can sleep, but I know I have to at least lay down so I plan on watching something on Netflix. Before I head off though I am going to share a photo from the pinup "shoot" that I did for this contest. Then tomorrow, technically later today, I will be posting Day Four of my Summer Fashion Trends and possibly a makeup tutorial, so please stay tuned!

Time to build my dream closet

Hello Lovelies!
 
I have skipped making my DOOTD's for a couple days because I have been focused on tutorials etc. for YouTube, so here is a couple looks I have created in the past couple of days.

Simple Victory Roll Tutorial

Hello Lovelies!
 
I know I promised a victory roll tutorial and I finally finished it and posted it today! I am so happy to finally be done with this tutorial, I had issues while filming (my camera kept shutting off randomly), and since I filmed it my children pretty much have been sick so I had to keep putting off editing, but now here it is for you to view. Feel free to leave comments or suggestions!

Books on Vintage/Retro Hairstyles and Makeup

Hello Lovelies!
 
I don't know about you, but I am the type of person that likes to have thorough instructions and pictures to help teach me something new. So, I would love to share some links with you for a couple books on vintage, retro hairstyles that may strike your fancy as they have mine.
 
 

 
Vintage Hairstyling happens to be my absolute favorite book out of the bunch. This full color 200 page book shares with its readers precise directions complimeted with great pictures and wonderful tips
Retro-do's is a 76 page book filled with high quality photos and illustrations for vintage hairstyles with a modern twist.
This book focuses on makeup from the 20's to the 60's, and gives you step-by-step instructions on how to achieve glamorous looks inspired by famous women such as Marilyn Monroe and Jean Harlow.

 
 

On another note, I will be beginning the filming for my victory rolls series of tutorials this week, I planned on already having it done, but my lovely boyfriend left my camera charger at a friend's house after using it to film at one of his concerts.

Pompadour (Poof) and High Ponytail Video Tutorial

Hello Lovelies!
 
As promised I created a hair tutorial, not the victory roll tutorial I expected to make tonight, but this one is for a pompadour (poof) and high ponytail hairstyle with either a bandana or flower option. I was planning on not only filming this tutorial, but doing the first edition of my victory rolls tutorials, but my camera began to die and my battery charger is on a little road trip with my boyfriend, so for now this one will just have to do. I hope you guys love it, if you have any questions feel free to comment or email me at brianngrim@gmail.com
