Looking good, Reyna.

I have a couple of suggestions. Assuming its cold where you are, how about a gray or blue turtleneck sweater, or a long turtle neck

or mock neck T or blouse? Perhaps a tunic top would look nice? There are lovely ones with beads and rhinestones sewn on, and they can

work for casual or even semi-formal occasions.

Hope that helps.

Hi Reyna

Right now I have on a Bisou Bisou batik burst tank.

It's a two piece layered top with beaded chain.

It's made to look like a black cami with a vest.

The outer is hot looking purple lightning bolt tie-die.

With this I have on red nylons, jean skirt, and a plush oversized red hoodie.

Topped with a black hat with purple band and buttons.

The hoodie hangs loose and open.

Often sliding on my shoulder.

It's an easy comfy feel for me.

Go with your own colors though.

I tend to look loud... but always have... even in guy mode!!

Hope I helped.

Luv Kat

thank you Carolyn Marie for the advice, while looking i found something i hope will work.

[Guest reyna]

again, thank you Carolyn Marie and KellyKat, i just got the top i bought today and thought i might show the final results.

[Carolyn Marie]

That's perfect, Reyna! I love the top, and the outfit looks great. I want a pair of those boots, too.

No help needed. I think it is perfect the way it is.

I like the tunic top, better suited for the weather. But you need som dangly siver earrings and a few bangle bracelets.

ahh, silver, one of my favorite colors, i'll have to get to the mall sometime to get my ears re pierced, im not sure how it happened but i cant seem to fit even the tiniest of earrings in my ear now and the bracelet idea sounds very nice as well, thank you for the ideas.

I think you did a fabulous job with the top! I have a T-shirt that has a similar pattern on it that I was wearing today.

You have great fasion sense girl!

thank you everyone, if i may though, i have one more question that occured to ask, after the earrings and bracelet idea i started wondering on if i should find a peticular type of makeup to use. as it is now i usually only use foundation as it is easiest for me to apply and i dont mess up with it alot as my hands are not very good with anything more then that and will start shaking as a result of a surgery i had when i was younger. when i was with my friends i wore some of the more diffcult stuff as they would apply it for me but i/we never really ever figured out what makeup looks good on me so any ideas/tips?

Hi Reyna

Your top looks gorgeous!!

I would probably start with a color set and some makeup remover.

Right now is an awesome time to buy them.

After Christmas gift sets are all around - cheap!!

I got tons myself. lol I didn't know what I wanted, but great fun to try out.

I had the best luck with a palette of many eye shadow colors.

With my favorite blush, and lipsticks.

A good set of makeup brushes is also nice to have.

I have spent a good amount of time just learning.

What to wear, how to apply, so on.

Part of the joy of being a girl for me!!

Hope this helps.

Luv Kat
