Halloween makeup

Here's an idea for Halloween makeup. Its super easy, you guys can just do your regular eye makeup that you usually do, although I recommend a smokey eye and add fake eye lashes. Then just draw a spider web using an eyeliner, pencil or liquid whichever you find easier :) Don't forget to use primer before you apply your makeup xoxo

Happy Halloween everyone

I want to begin with saying that I hope all my viewers from NY, NJ and CT are safe, after this terrible storm. My heart goes out to everyone who was affected by this storm. I strongly encourage everyone else to donate money to redcross like I did this morning, that is the least we can do to help. “No one has ever become poor by giving.”
Anne Frank, diary of Anne Frank 
Please lets show compassion to the people that were affected. 

To the rest of my viewers , I hope you guys enjoy Halloween, and here are some Halloween costume ideas<3 Love you all

skulls, crosses and bones

This is the perfect season to rock out in clothes with crosses, bones or skulls on them! So don't hold back! 




You can buy these leggings at Necessary clothing

Put a bow on it

Another thing you can do to your old clothes or new clothes that you want to look more fun, is just add a bow to it :) you can never go wrong with a plain black bow 
Here are some pictures from Fashion Night Out and a random night out



Don't forget that maroon lipsticks are very in right now, so go ahead and purchase one :)

some of my Halloween designs

"Seek deep within your inner self and magnify the many colorful layers within your magnificent and vibrant soul. Expose and express your bold and beautiful self by spreading your feathers freely and proudly like a peacock for all the world to see." 




when in doubt just throw some spikes on it

I remember when shoes with spikes just came out, I thought to myself "oh this is not going to last for a long time", boy was I wrong, now every designer is coming out with shoes with spikes on them, studs. I'm sure you've seen numerous designer stories carrying clothes as well that is covered in spikes and studs. So I decided to get creative as well, I went to the store and bought bags of spikes and bags of studs and started putting them on everything, shoes, bags, clothes and so on. Here are just some example of what I made with adding spikes and studs :)

Unfortunately I lost the picture of the original bag that I had, but this is a picture of it in black...so I did not change the color of the leather, I just removed the petals of the flower, added studs and chains to it to make it look more fun
 
Here, I added large spikes and small spikes, some chains, and Swarovski crystals

  The dream, alone, is of interest. What is life without a dream? - Edmond Rostand 

Hey guys, I'm Lina Valentina, an aspiring fashion designer from NYC. So what is life without a dream? My dream since I was a little girl was to become a fashion designer, in fact I didn't remember when my passion for fashion started until recently, when my parents came back from Russia and brought a box of my old drawings. I always knew that I loved drawing, but I was surprised to find drawings of "fashion figures" and fashion magazines that I drew at the age of 7. Safe to say that I've followed my dream...so basically in my blog I will be posting some of my designs, and clothes that I've made, some outfits that people always message me on FaceBook asking me about...hopefully you guys will find this helpful and somewhat inspiring <3
