Mini Post: Lindsey Wixson

 
Who is the new fresh face of the modeling industry? Lindsey Wixson is.


Where is she from? Wichita, Kansas that's where!!!

    
            I would have never guessed that the girl I was starring at in my favorite MIU MIU adds was from my very own home town! Debuting at New York Fashion week during the Prada Show in 2009, Lindsey's career has skyrocketed. Now the face of MIU MIU (My biggest dream!) and most talked about "newcomer," she continues to wow people with her stunning features. Her signature "Bee Stung" lips and gap in her teeth help give her that 'it' factor that everyone looks for. And let me tell you, this girl has 'IT'!

      I am proud to know that Miss Wixson is from my home town. To know she is 16, going to a local Wichita high school, and now has become one of New York's most talked about models, makes me think maybe I really do have a chance.


I hope I will become as successful as her! Congratulations Lindsey!

Nothing I Have Done Nothing . . .

Where have I been?? Well I am super duper glad you asked!

The past couple of weeks I have been sitting in school doing absolutely nothing. Me, just staring at a blank chalk board thinking to myself  'Rachel, what are you doing? Is there really an important reason why you haven't blogged?' And I would immediately answer myself 'no'. After contemplating for a week of why I have been so boring I decided to take some pictures after school. But guess what happened? I got sick for 3 days. For those three days I was too lazy and tired to get up and try  to make myself more visually pleasing.

Soooo that is my reason for not blogging. On the more positive side I have discovered new things to blog about! And have taken many photographs.

Lets pretend like I haven't not blogged for 3 weeks, Okay?

TopShop NYC: Also known as 4 floors of sheer bliss.

   
The other day I found out TopShop has TWO NEW MAKEUP LINES. I know, I freaked out too. When I found out I almost fell out of my chair.

     
    One line will be the Core Collection and the other will be a Trend Collection. The difference between the two is the Trend Collection will change according to the current season. This will make the products in the Trend Collection limited edition items. This is so exciting!

     Both lines consist of lipstick, foundation, blush, eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara. . . etc. My favorite pieces of the Core Collection are the lipstick in vintage - $14.00 : 










and the blush in crushed berry - $12.00 :

 

  

My favorite piece in the Trend Collection is the Amazon Shadow In Suns - $16.00:

 The colors are so vibrant and gorgeous. If I had the money I would buy every piece in this collection. SO PRETTY.

  

 Here is the spread in ELLE magazine : ) Enjoy.

Just some background: Betsey Johnson is one of my favorite designers in the entire world. I love how she uses color and shape to show off the beauty of a woman's body. Do I really need to explain anymore? Just look at this dress!

Earlier this year I bought this gorgeous Betsey Johnson dress for my fall homecoming dance. When the homecoming dance came around I forgot to take some pictures in it! Hopefully this will make up for such an awful mistake.

The detailing on this dress is so beautiful!

Outfit: Betsey Johnson dress, BCBG shoes, DANZA shrug, and pearl necklace.

Rodarte is the bomb. Need i say more?

I have been waiting for these tights/socks to come in the mail for the past couple of weeks and they are finally here! Are they not just amazing?

This is my nuede pair with a baby pink band at the top.

Rodarte never ceases to amaze me.

Here's my other pair which is yellow with a nude band at the top.

 Gorgeous.

I LOVE TARGET

Target is my love. I buy just about everything from there. When I first found out that Jean Paul Gaultier was doing a line for Target I FREAKED OUT. I absolutely love Gaultier and had to check it out! 

When I finally had a chance to go to Target it seemed like nothing was left. I was sad that i had not come sooner. Then I saw it. This little green, polka-dotted dress was hanging on a clothing rack right in front of me. It is so adorable! Here is my new favorite dress!

Another amazing piece from an amazing designer.

 

i decided to wear my great-grandmother's hat. Isn't it gorgeous?

In this look: Jean Paul Gaultier dress, my grandmothers vintage hat, gold Payless shoes.

Oh and Happy Easter from Collin an I.
