Trends You Gotta Try! redtagcrazy.com blog

Do all of your jeans look the same? I tend to buy the same cuts in denim. I usually go for the bootleg or flared cuts. I am thinking of trying something new. (apparently I am not being to trendy) This article “4 Trends You Gotta Try” is from a denim article featured in Self magazine.  So take a look and see if there is a trend that you are missing  

Want to look slim and sexy? It’s all in the jeans,mac makeup!

Trend 1 Gray jeans

Ever so slightly edgy, gray is a cool way to step out of the blues box. Narrow-leg styles such as straight or skinny give a crisp effect.

 

Trend 2 Skinny jeans

These are the dressy counterpart to lounge-around leggings. Buy yours with stretch for comfort and without holes or distressing for versatility.

Trend 3 Flared jeans

To look boho-chic (not like an extra in Hair),cheap mac makeup, find a pair that starts to widen at the knee rather than explode at the ankle. Which wash? Light has a vintage vibe; indigo is sleeker. 

Trend 4 Boyfriend jeans

Ah, jeans to relax in. But remember,wholesale mac makeup, you want baggy, not saggy. They should be fitted through the waist and rear, roomy in the thighs. Cuff them offhandedly just above your ankles. 

Ok, so i have only tried the flared jeans. Looks like I need to start shopping!

A Quick Update on Blogs! redtagcrazy.com blog

Hi all,cheap mac makeup! I just wanted to give everyone a quick update on changes to blog editing and blogging. We all know that Cayla has been super busy and RTC has asked me to take over the roll of Blog editor while Cayla is stepping down. This was a decision made by Cayla and we wish her all the best and thank her for the time and effort spent over the last few months. I have written numerous blogs here on RTC and I will be glad to help any of you in any way possible. 

Here are a few reminders from previous post about blogging along with a few changes being made as to how blogging payments will work. 

1.  If you are interested in blogging for RTC and do not have a user name and password for WordPress just let me know and I will provide you with the information you need to log into and post drafts, etc.

2.  The only real change is that we now only offer RTCash in exchange for “shipment reviews”. All other blogs are welcome but will not be paid with RTCash. Really this means that the ONLY  blogs that RTCash will be issued for are the ones that have reviews of  items that you have purchased through RTC.  Payment = $5 dollars per blog.

 

3. RTCash will be issued once a week; the amount you receive is determined by how many blogs have POSTED since the last blog payday.  Right now we get paid for blogs every Thursday. I am trying to stick to that schedule. So blogs POSTED from Friday through Thursday should be paid on that Thursday. I hope this makes sense. Basically, this will stay the same. 

4. If you are interested in writing a blog that is non fashion/RTC related, go for it! Variety is the spice of life, and the more of it we have in the blogs,wholesale mac makeup, the more exposure it will get the site,mac makeup! We would love to keep things exciting and always love to see new blogs ideas. Although you will not receive RTCash for this blog we encourage new ideas and blogs for everyone to read. As always you will need to email you idea to blogs@redtagcrazy.com for approval and please make your blog UNIQUE

5.  The e-mail address that you were sending blogs at is supposed to get directed to my inbox, but in the mean time you are welcome to email me directly at missyhboudreau@yahoo.com with any comments, questions, or if you just need help. 

6. If you already have a blog in the draft section of WordPress and it is not a “shipment review” you will not receive RTCash for it. If you do not want it published, please delete it. If you have a “shipment review” blog I will schedule along with others for the coming week ad you will receive RTCash accordingly.

7. I am totally new to this so it might take me a minute to learn all of the ins and outs of blog editing. I will do my best and try to help in any way possible. 

So lets get to blogging! I know I have missed seeing the blogs updated and I always love seeing the way different styles fit on different body types. Start writing about your most recent package of goodies, take pictures of it, and write a review about how it fits, etc . This could be helpful for anyone out there hesitant on buying that particular item and also entertaining for those of us that just like to see these fabulous clothes on our “friends”.

Favorite RTC Denim redtagcrazy.com blog

I have only purchased one pair of denim from RTC so I don’t know if I qualify to give denim advice. However,mac makeup wholesale, the one pair I have purchased are very nice. =) I am referring to my See Thru Soul jeans. Before buying these jeans I also had never purchased jeans by waist measurement, so there was one failed attempt at sizing and had to repurchase a new size.  When I received the first pair in the mail they were just a tad too snug, so I sold that pair and purchased a new pair in the next size up. The new pair fits like a glove! They have just the right amount of stretch to feel very comfy and secure, but also do not get all floppy and saggy after hours of wear. I recently wore them for an all day trip to Disneyland and they were great! In fact, I liked these jeans so much I searched eBay by the brand name and found another pair in a different design and they are just as awesome. I would love to have the opportunity to purchase more See Thru Soul denim from RTC and also try some of the other brands of denim. I hear so many rave reviews about Black Orchid but I have yet to join the “skinny jean” bandwagon. I’m a bit curvy and not sure I’m ready to try that. We’ll see…. =P

I think you should leap onto the skinny jean bandwagon they looks super cute and its not a style just for the super skinny. Curvy girls can pull it off too

Hot Summer Style Event A Quick Recap redtagcrazy.com blog

Hot Summer Style Event: A Quick Recap

Well, another first at RedTagCrazy last Friday July 24 – a “Mini” event! We all love “firsts” at RTC and this event was no exception. A “blast from the past” was the only clue given by SA prior to the event. I think many CCers were hoping for LinQ, Aude or Vince! I was leaning towards LinQ, myself, and LinQ it was!! But not just any LinQ – it was a beautiful selection right out of the Summer 2009 Catalog at, of course, unbeatable prices! And then, as a little bonus, we were treated to a sampling of Chinese Laundry and Qupid shoes!

Well, seeing as how it was LinQ, there were quite a few butt splinters incurred by “bench sliding” that day,

And I learned that great makeup sex somehow involves bacon, beer and flowers,

We explored a healthy amount of “creep factor” compliments,

We congratulated Jennifer on her promotion and for coining the word “Stretchalicious” when referring to LinQ

We tried (well me anyway) to picture Erica poised over her computer in camouflage gear and safari hat, ready to pounce on the LinQ Blazer.

So, if you missed any or all of this fun little event, here is a list of the items – some of which are still floating around the regular RTC rotation. If you want to see them, cruise on over to the LinQ Summer 09 Catalog,mac makeup wholesale!

http://www.studiocl.com/linQ/

LinQ Raglan Short Sleeve Tee

LinQ Front Pocket Pants

LinQ Cropped Short Sleeve Jacket

LinQ V Strap Back Cami

LinQ Faux Wrapped Banded Tank

LinQ Open Tie Back Short Sleeve Tee

LinQ Pintuck Ruffle V Neck Tee

Chinese Laundry Amber Pumps

LinQ Cardigan Tank

Qupid Lively Sandal

Chinese Laundry Babe Pump

Qupid Orsen Peep Toe Heel

Qupid Impress Slingback Pump

I hear RTC is gearing up for a HUGE event on Friday July 31 – so bench sliders, new bench occupants and reformed benchers,wholesale mac makeup, beware,cheap mac makeup!! Me – I will be on my way to Lake Tahoe, but I may just have to pop in for a lurk here and there!

I finally received my package after holding it in my cart for almost a month. I was dying to get the clothes but was scared that if I shipped my cart that the next item would be a must have and I would regret it. So the day before linQ day, I took the plunge. I followed the UPS tracking almost right to my doorstep and waited impatiently like everyone else. I left to run to the store and when I returned, there it was! My box that I waited so long to get. I have to say, it was worth the wait. I was not disappointed.

First is the purple linQ basic tank size M. I saw this tank probably 10 times before I bought it. Now I wonder why I waited so long. It is vibrant, fitted,mac makeup wholesale, and I love it.

I paired this with the Joe’s Jeans Socialites size 29. I was doubting these jeans were going to fit. I was so wrong. I love these jeans so much. They are definitely my new favorites. I am looking forward to seeing more of them on RTC in the future.

Next is the Zlush Ramones shirt in a Large. This is the softest shirt ever. I love the material. It runs small so is a little tight but I love it anyway.

I also got th Zlush Ruched Shirt in White size L. The sizing runs a little bit small for this also but I think it is super cute,wholesale mac makeup!

Last but not least is the linQ Turtleneck size M. Yes I know that it is hot outside but I have a thing for turtlenecks and now also for linQ. I am so glad that I broke my long sleeve ban for this beautiful shirt. It can be worn by itself or under your favorite sweater.

These clothes look better in person than in my pics but I wanted to share them with you and hope it helps with sizing and seeing the items on different people. My next cart ships in 40 minutes and I look forward to it,mac makeup! It feels like I am waiting on Christmas!

• You want to draw eyes to the highest part of your posterior. This pocket on a pocket does it; so would buttons or even a conspicuous label in the upper corner.

• Stick to medium-sized,cheap mac makeup, not large pockets. Where they end,mac makeup, your tush appears to also!

I am notorious for wearing white shirts and jeans. I have tried to change it up a little to add some color but I notice that I still wear plain colored tops all the time. I finally found a way to add a little more life in my wardrobe. Add the color to your feet!I know many of you like to wear heels and they do look awesome with jeans but right now I am in sneaker mode. I am going to bring back a little bit old school/80’s footwear. (no Reebok high tops though)

First up is the PF Flyers Center Lo in Hot Pink. The shoe is a a reissue of the 1950’s basketball icon. The shoes has a trademark ribbed toe bumper, diamond patterned outsole,mac makeup wholesale, and posture foundation comfort. 

 

This shoe happens to be my favorite brand,cheap mac makeup! I love my New Balance. Although mine are silver and pink, the company is coming out with some vibrant colors just in time for spring! Nine West has recently teamed up New Balance and created the Icon Collection. It seems like Nine West is getting a running start, thanks to New Balance. The collection features lightweight shoes made with jersey knit and vintage nylons straight out of the 70’s and are also available in less flashy color combinations of gray with blue and yellow,mac makeup, and black and blue. Now available with an $89 price tag.

When I hear the name Vans, I automatically think “skateboard”. These Vans Lo Pros have a delicate look that is both antique-y and stylish in a contemporary way, thanks to the simple design elements that soeak for themselves.  

 

Looking to stand out, but not show off? Since 1981, the Jazz O’s have been Saucony’s most popular shoe, offering extreme comfort and classic, not-trying-to-hard style with now legendary triangular lugs and plenty of cushioning, and two different laces. (I have these in Pink and they are super comfy)

 

 

 

Last but not least is probably the most popular of color sneakers also known as Chuck Taylors! The Converse All Stars. You can get these in any color and even design your own at converse.com

 

I hope this puts some “spring” into your step and some color on your feet! It reminded me that I have pink Sauconys somewhere…lol.

Milani Crystal Gloss Color Expansion for Spring 2012 Vintageortacky

,wholesale mac makeup

Hi Guys & Dolls!

Milani Crystal Gloss is a non-sticky lipgloss with a scent that Milani describes as “Cotton Candy” though I think it smells like caramel cookies. They have a sponge tip applicator that is a bit on the small side so you may need to do several pulls to get enough gloss on your lips. The tube appears small, but they contain 4.86gm of product, about the same as a MAC lipglass. They retail for about 5.49, and can be found an many different druggstores & mass retailers like Target. The color payoff varies from sheer to medium. Milani recently launched a few new colors for spring 2012 and I have 5 to share with you today.

Black Honey

This looks clear here and in person it seems to just barely mute my lipcolor, but in cracks on my lips it looks darker. It looks black in the tube, but if you look close it’s dark brown with gold shimmer

Pucker Up

This is a sheer milky peach. Great for warming up your face on those overcast winter days, I love the softness it give the lips.

Fruit Punch

Sheer milky hot coral-pink. Love it. Love it. Love it. Love the name too- I’m such a sucker for fruit punch flavored RockStar.

Raspberry Icing

Hot fuchsia pink with blue & pink sparkles. Yes please, can I have some more? The shimmer and bright color one reminds me a bit of Milani’s 3D Glitzy Glamour Glosses, though I prefer the scent of these crystal glosses.

Clear

Clear is just that, clear so I didn’t think a swatch was necessary, but here’s a shot of the wand.

The Bottom Line: I really dig these & love that they are so affordable. The quality is wonderful, so you don’t even have to feel like you’re sacrificing quality to save money! I carry a few of these in my kit since they are so small & cheap. They are especially nice if you don’t like sticky gloss, these are smooth and not drying.

Price? $5.49 but also look for sales at various retailers

Where to buy? CVS,mac makeup, Walgreens, Target, WalMart & milanicosmetics.com

About me….

1. RTC Chat Name

Desiderata

It is the title of a poem I really like:

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible, without surrender,
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even to the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons;
they are vexatious to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain or bitter,
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs,
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals,mac makeup,
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love,
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,
it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,cheap mac makeup,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life,
keep peace in your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

2. What do you do for a living?

I am starting graduate school this fall for a neuroscience PhD – very excited!

3. Describe your hidden talent

I can organize any thing! And I love doing it! It relaxes me…

4. Tell us about your most embarrassing moment

I needed glasses starting in 6th grade,mac makeup wholesale, and I was the only person in my class who had them. The first day I wore them, every one made fun of me and called me Four Eyes and all sorts of names. I refused to wear my glasses to school that whole year until I got to middle school. For some reason, I was so embarrassed.  Embarrassing enough at the time that I didn’t wear my glasses for a whole year and always had to sit in front so I could see the blackboard lol… It seems silly now, but it was pretty hurtful then.

5. What is your guilty pleasure?

Shopping…. on RTC

6. What makes you cringe?

I can’t help but cringe when people pick at their hang nails, it really bothers me.

7. Who is your celebrity crush?

Patrick Dempsey… McDreamy lol

8. Describe the one item of clothing you can’t live without

My swim suit because I love swimming in the ocean on a hot day. I would love to see some more bikinis on RTC!

9. If you can be anywhere right now, where would you be? Why?

I would be next to my boyfriend, we are doing a long distance relationship in different graduate schools, and I would be so happy just to do my day-to-day things with him next to me.

10. Why do you love RTC?

It’s a fun break from studying to check what is rotating through for sale and what is being discussed on ChickChat, and it feels good to find good deals on cute clothes
