Fashion Favorites At The Moment/Haul | Forever 21, H&M, Marc Jacobs


Hi everyone! Happy new year! I hope you all had wonderful holidays! (=

I wanted to share what some fashion favorites at the moment and some recently bought stuff. There are a lot more now since I originally planned on publishing this post on November. (I know, that was forever ago) but here are some clothings/accesories I have been in love with~

  • Forever 21 white studded color blouse (new&FAVE) It's kind of hard to wear this nowadays though because it is so cold~ I pair it up with a black cardigan.

  • H&M Pink sequined peter pan collar blouse (new&FAVE) It was buy 1 get 1 free! I got the one below along with it.

  • H&M Gradient black/white/gray pullover (new & FAVE)



  • Forever 21 Black laced sleeve dress (new) I bought this for an event I was volunteering for for school. It was an all black formal attire dress code. I had a blast too!
  • Marc by Marc Jacobs white and gold watch (new&FAAAAAVE) The only thing my parents bought me on Black Friday but I AM LOVING IT.
I hope you guys enjoyed and don't forget to follow my instagram @melissaosia for more!

Happy reading (=

Blue and Yellow Polka Dot Nails | DIY Dotting Tool

Did you guys ever wanted to do something else with your nails other than plain coloring but don't have the tools to create designs?

Well, I'm here to tell you how to create your own dotting tool for this look!

Things you'll need:
  • 2 different colored nail polish that compliments each other. 
  • Mechanical pencil (not pictured)
Steps:
  1. Paint 4 fingers (your choice) with 1 color.
    *Remember, depending on the quality of the nail polish, coats vary*
  2. Paint 1 finger (your choice) with the 2nd color. 
  3. Apply top coat on all fingers
  4. I like to apply top coat even on the nail I am going to design so it protects what you already did.
  5. Get a plastic type of plate (not pictured) and put a dab of the color you want to create the dots with on the plate.
  6. Take your mechanical pencil and swirl it in the color
  7. Slightly and carefully dot your nail in a diagonal way for an even spacing
YOU'RE DONE! It's very simple but I hope you enjoyed this DIY-ish dotting tool for those who don't want to buy one. Remember dot size depends on the size of the pencil and amount of nail polish you dabbed.

Asian Wired Headband (Usamimi)

HI everyone! So I had this headband for awhile now but never got the change to talk about it!

I don't really know what it's really called I just stumbled upon it while shopping. I got this at INVU and it was a BOHO but sadly, I didn't get another one because I was just trying this out.

I really like it! It looked better on me when I had no bangs but I got it cut recently so yeah )=
I'm still playing around with it and trying to figure out what to wear with it since the design I chose is kind of hard to match with.

Any suggestions on what matches with this? (=
