Like a long time ago, basically 10 years ago, I got one of my favorite shirts of all time! It was this really cute faux leather & fishnet crop top of mine that I’ve always loved from Urban Outfitters in 2013! This is such an awesome shirt of mine, in 2014 when I was 15 I even did this cute other small shoot on my camera with this shirt too, but it actually took me until now to finally do an actual photoshoot for it! I can’t believe it, but at least I was finally able to get this shirt up on Shop For Days. I’m so glad I finally got around to it though since this was my best shirt ever, but it’s actually falling apart now so this was my last chance to do a photoshoot for it. It still looked pretty awesome with the outfit though, I wore it with faux leather pants as well as my bright red hair again which was cool. I also loved the lipstick I used for this & everything, I think it’s an awesome photoshoot. I had a couple different ideas I had to do for this month but I could only do one or the other, but I’m so glad I was finally able to do this one this time because it worked out perfectly. I’ve always loved this shirt so much but I’m surprised I still have so many things I haven’t gotten to, yet in my closet right now! I’m going through all of it pretty fast, though, which has been super awesome. I still have one more idea to do this month & then I’m done for this month but we’ll see about next month. I’m excited about both of those. I loved this other dark outfit though, I thought it was cool to do this one now! This kind of goes with my last one, also. I love doing outfits like this sometimes, these dark looks I’ve been doing recently have been really cool!

I’m glad I was finally able to get around to doing this one, it’s been so long with having this but I was finally able to do it! I love clothes like this, I love anything different or unique like this, really. I can’t believe I have to finally throw this shirt away soon, too, but I got my use out of it I think! I’ve always really loved this shirt but that’s okay, I’m glad I did this shoot for it. The all-black looked really good with the red hair, this is a cool post to do right after my last post I did called ‘BUTTERFLY UTOPIA’, also red & black, too. My next post will be my third red & black one, as well! I wore these faux leather pants with the silver zipper with my all-gold jewelry too, inspired by my last post where I also had a zip-up skirt on, for that. So this is like a second one to that one, like I was saying! Let’s get into the photoshoot next, it’s an awesome one. Below is the first collage, a picture of the back of this top & my magazine rack, too. I love my magazine rack right now, it’s super amazing! I re-did it like last month.

Makeup Details for ‘SPARKLE & FADE.’ on September 11th, 2023:

• Pink Lipps Cosmetics Major Matte Primer $13 which I got from Ipsy, earlier this year. This is a pretty good long wear matte finish face primer & I actually like this one. I’m glad that I got this primer!
• Yensa Skin On Skin BC Foundation $42 in the shade Light Neutral that I also got from Ipsy earlier this year as well. This is a pretty good foundation with a built-in concealer & I also like this shade.
• Too Faced Peach Blur Translucent Smoothing Finishing Powder $30 that I got from Sephora in like 2019, but it’s discontinued now. I love this powder though, it has such a pretty pink flush to it too.
• Tarte Cosmetics Tarteist Pro Glow & Blush Palette $45 which I got from Tarte online in 2019 but this is discontinued as well. I used the Solo bronzer, Amp pink blush & Hi-Fi highlight shades though.
• Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion $27 in the shade Original which is a really good eyeshadow primer. This is one of two that I have right now & is like the main one I’ve usually always used too!
• S.A.L.T.Y. Cosmetics Glama-ZOID! Eyeshadow $15 which I got from Ipsy like a really long time ago. It is a pretty white eyeshadow with a pink sheen to it & is a pretty pink highlighter shadow to use.
• Il Makiage Color Boss Eyeshadow $29 in the shade Shopaholic that I got from Ipsy a few years ago. This is a really pretty light pink eyeshadow single that I love, I’ve loved this one since I first got it.
• Sahi Cosmetics Cream Metallic Foil Shadow $22 in the shade Doha, which is this pretty gold shade. I also got this from Ipsy a while back ago, but it’s one of my favorite gold eyeshadows that I have!

• PÜR Cosmetics Big Look Extreme Mascara $22 that I got from Ipsy earlier this year too. I love this mascara, it’s like a lengthening one pretty much but it looks really pretty on my lower lashes also.
• Benefit Cosmetics Goof Proof Brow Pencil $26 in the shade Auburn which I got from Sephora earlier this year, but I just ran out of this one! It was a pretty good brow definer though, I liked this one.
• Kylie Cosmetics Kiki Crème Liquid Lipstick $45 for this 2017 KKW set, of x4 crème liquid lipsticks from Kim’s collection. This one is a pinky-nude, Kiki which actually looked totally perfect for this!
• Formula Z Cosmetics Unisexy Setting Spray $32 which is a setting spray I got from Ipsy earlier this year. I’m glad I got this one to try, it’s a nice lighter one that I like but I don’t use this all the time.

That’s it for the last collage of SPARKLE & FADE. & I loved this photoshoot! I’m glad I had this idea to do this one at the last second, I hope I get a lot more things like this done from my closet this year or soon! I have the next 3-4 photoshoots of mine pretty much planned too basically, but I’m really happy I ended up doing this. I like the coordinating outfits that I’ve been doing for over a page of posts too, like I said in my last post, that’s really cool to do. I’m transitioning from the summer into the fall with the darker outfits & everything but my next one will be a summer-ish red & black one which’ll be cool to end the last part of summer! I’m still so excited about my theme that I’ve been doing since June too like I said & I’m going to keep doing it if I can! It’s going pretty perfectly for me right now but I’m not too sure how long I can keep doing the same one, I’m going to try to though! It’s this cool pattern in my outfits with the capitalized titles & everything too, but we’ll see about the consistency with all the similar outfits! I’m glad about how everything else has been going for me these days too, it has really been going awesome. Here’s one more collage after all that, which is of like 5 pictures I took of myself when I was 15, wearing the same shirt. This was super cute, that shirt was so perfect & I loved it a lot!

May 2014 wearing the same Sparkle & Fade fishnet & faux leather crop top! This was this cute small photoshoot I did in this room when I was 15. I once in a while took pictures like that in 2014 before I started this blog in 2015! That’s pretty much it for this post, thanks so much for checking out my blog!

Song of the Shoot: Sparkle by No Doubt from their 2012 Push And Shove album. I love that song & it is a good one!
