Shiny clutch

Lip gloss? Check. Cell phone? Check. This sparkly clutch provides just enough space for all of your going-out essentials. It even has a detachable chain so you can avoid those “I don’t wanna carry this in my hand!” moments.

Lovely feather headband

A feather headband adds a fluttery and flirty detail to any party look. Plus, it’s a smidge exotic-looking, and a steal at under $10!

Im really small; an extra small (but on the rare occasion im a small!) in Juinors, and a 0 or 1 in Juinors jeans. Anyway, i really want a CUTE, APPROPRIATE, INEXPENSIVE dress for my Grade 7 dance. Please something I'd fit into as well. Thx!




I loooove this print dress from Urban Outfitters. It comes in XSmall and I think the Black Multi print is great for a special occasion. Forever 21 Girls has an amazing sequin dress that could work for you! Be sure to check their size chart so you know where you fall - you might be a medium or even a large in those sizes. Sometimes it's best to wander around the store/mall and keep your eyes peeled for styles that would fit the occasion so, if you have the time, def do that!

So for Christmas I'm getting one of my bffs a "Winter Survival Kit." I already have ear muffs and super cute fingerless gloves. I think I'll probably throw in some hot chocolate mix. What else should I add?? Please and thank you!




Oh, what a cute gift idea! Luv it! You could add lip balm and a small bottle of hand lotion to protect from the harsh winter cold, a mix of your fave "winter" songs (tunes that remind you of the season), a sparkly/pale winter-inspired nail polish, a small snowman stuffed animal, and maybe even a cookie dough mix - it's always fun to bake in the winter Smile

Okay, so, I have NO idea what I'm gonna wear for Christmas! I'm 12 and 5 ft. My mom and I are probs going shopping on black friday so where should we look? They just built a two-story F21 so maybe there??? I have a chunky sweater I wanna wear so I'm thinking just a skirt or something? Also, what should I do with my wavy-striaightish shoulder length hair...please don't say put it up. THANKS SO MUCH!!! XOXOXOXO




Hey babe,

Forever 21 is perfect for this kind of party stuff! If you're wearing a chunky sweater, try a pair of brightly colored skinny jeans/jeggings (F21, Urban Outfitters, American Apparel, etc.) underneath! I think I'm going to wear a sequin-striped tank with a black blazer and bright green jeans for Christmas - it's totally special because of that bold pop of holiday color! As for your hair, if you don't want to put it up....you're gonna have to leave it down! Try enhancing your natural wave and leave it down in a fun, slightly messy 'do. Add a sparkly headband or clip one side back (just to the back edge of your ear) for some added drama!
