The Style Guide: Modeling vs. Styling
I wanted to touched base on the different types of “photo shoots” that are put together for Rosie Says Hello. Their are basic styling or “how to” guides, which is my own personal closet or clothing in the form of a styling tutorial where I’ve given some thought into each of the outfits or ideas themselves. For example, How To Style “A Dress Different Ways” or “I’m A Jerk Wraps 12 Ways or even…
My blog has turned to shit and I’ll tell you why. I’m not going to go into a huge social media takeover of the entire imagination and creativity of writing, but I could. Ever since Twitter appeared, blogs became short 140 character sentences or thoughts that made it harder to “collect” thoughts for a blog later that haven’t already been posted. Then Instagram appeared and words disappeared…

My Favorite Mascara: Loreal Paris Double Extend: So I have completely fallen in love with a new mascara. I used to use MaryKay Signature Mascara because my mom used it but then stopped and switched Maybelline’s Great Lash because my sister used it. One my search for white mascara in January, I bought a new mascara which has become my all time favourite mascara of all time. So I figured I would give it a bit of a review. 
Although the mascara’s got progressively BETTER with each one the most recent that I’ve tried leaves my eyelashes a LOT bigger than the previous ones. That’s without curling the lashes. The double extend has two different layers of mascara including “white” which I used before by itself but it does not work as well as when the two are infused together. 
The length of the lashes really shows after applying BOTH sides of the mascara. They did get a bit “smaller” when I actually curled them with an eyelash curler but my lashes are so long they pretty much style themselves before the curler so I understand. 
The mascara is waterproof and does technically work in two colors both white and black but the white comes out in small doses and doesn’t really turn your eyelashes completely white. Either way, this mascara is definitely worth checking out have you ever tried it or thought about trying it? Do you like it or will you consider trying it? It’s my favourite. www.rosiesayshello.com

Fashion’s New “IT” Girl?: Hey guys so I was reading about thow everyone is entraced by a model named “Natalie Westling” and how everyone is calling her the new “IT” girl for Fashion Week. Other names they’re calling her are “Girl on Fire” (Someone should sue… JK) and they’re say she’s “painting fashion red” so I wanted to go check her out. My first look and I thought WHOA her hair. Her hair is a natural “dirty blonde/auburn mix” or so she calls it but she recently dyed her hair before Fashion Week a nice vibrant Ariel red. Funny thing, she’s actually the model that was with Miley Cyrus in the Marc Jacobs ad! 
When asked about her new hair she said, “I think it’s cool. It’s perfect to be able to stand out.” While looking at her photos I ran across a recent editorial she did and I LOVE IT. Check it out it’s for Saint Laurent SS2014 and unfortunately it doesn’t do her hair justice because the photos are in black and white but what do you think of this editorial? She also walked for Saint Laurent at the Paris show but it was before she dyed her hair so it was more auburn. 
Just one more photo. Of her new hair on the runway. 
Which hair do you prefer the more natural auburn shown in the Marc Jacob’s AD with Miley or her new vibrant red-orange locks featured during Fashion Week? What do you think of the editorial photos? Can you see her being the new “IT” girl for the season? I really like her ^_^ x www.rosiesayshello.com

Are Bralettes Appropriate for Everyday Wear?: Hey guys, so I wanted to know your opinion of bralettes. I won’t lie, I do like them, I do have a couple but as I sit here thinking about style and fashion I’m wondering if we will all soon be running around naked? Bralettes are being worn as “t-shirts” and are making a huge statement in the fashion world. But if you think about it, aren’t you technically running around in a bra? 
I never really understood why wearing a swimsuit in public was fine but wearing your bra which covers the exact same thing and really looks the exact same way is “indecent exposure”. So with these bralettes all over the place being worn thousands of different ways including as tops by celebrities do you think that it’s too much or should we all be allowed to wear our bras outside as apart of our outfits? I feel like tops are getting smaller and smaller. A few years ago it was all BIG BIG BIG don’t show anything then it became show a little (lower stomach), a little more (full stomach), a lot (see through bralettes). But at the same time I’m obsessed with them and want to wear them everywhere. It’s such a complicated emotion, does anyone share it with me? Maybe it depends on how you style it? www.rosiesayshello.com

My Resolutions for January 2014: Hey guys! So a lot of people up New YEARS resolutions which last roughly a few weeks into the year and then you slowly start to forget them. Well yesterday I didn’t wait for the clock to strike midnight or celebrate the new year. Because I realized that time is a man made concept and a New Year is just another day so in order to make my “resolutions work” I’m taking them one day or at least ONE MONTH at a time. 
You guys are more than welcome to take the calendars that I make for each month I already did all the photography for them. They really took some time to make I actually arranged all the flowers and dirt for each of the numbers myself 🙂 I know it’s been done before but I had a lot of fun doing it. I was planning on selling it on my Etsy but never really got around to editing it past June. Anyways so I wanted to give myself some resolutions for this month only and worry about NEXT month… next month. In January: 1) Lease train/Finish Potty Training Bandit
2) Do at least 5 modeling jobs (Sponsors, Events, etc.) (modeling isn’t really my main focus I’m not honestly sure what my focus is…)
3) Silk screen the old designs with sizes, begin silk screening the NEW designs.
4) Make feathers for Spring.
5) Apply for Vending locations close to Valentine’s Day
6) Begin lookbook for 2014 with new designs
7) Start saving for Chicago in July!
8) Blog more and about more important things! (Last Month I didn’t feel like blogging AT ALL my heart wasn’t in it:O)
9) Get all of Wild Violet’s new arrivals up and setup for Valentine’s Day promo
10) Apply for WARPED TOUR I know I already have one modeling job I just need to do the shoot so that leaves 4 more to find. I have a LOT of silk screening to do I have to silk screen ALL the sizes on EVERY shirt then all my “old” collections I need to silk screen both the sizes AND my logo. Then of course the new designs have lots of screens that need to be done. Warped Tour is going to be the hardest thing on my list because for vendors it fills up REALLY fast the day the basically announce how to apply. All the other times I applied it was too full by the time they got my application. Sucks to be me. I don’t want to go into TOO much detail but I feel like if don’t do Warped tour soon I’ll be too old. Plus my new designs are so incredibly perfect for Warped gahh. Maybe you’re never too old for Warped! Plus Wild Violet needs to have it’s entire “Valentine’s Day” promo setup BEFORE February. Well dang, what about you guys what are you doing for the month of January only? Or what do you hope to accomplish in January. I’m taking this year one month at a time xo www.rosiesayshello.com

Today I learned that if you dream about your teeth falling out it’s stress related (I knew that part) stress from being vain. Yes, so if you’re dreaming about your teeth falling out it’s all related to you being conceited. Or so I’m told. In other news, all of my teeth are in tact and today was absolutely fabulous.
n
I started out eating pizza with the boyfriend and we watched “Lord of Wars” or something like that which is about Nicolas Cage being an arms dealer which in return makes me think of God Damned arm’s races if you catch my drift. Other than that I smoked a couple of blunts and passed out for the rest of the afternoon. Dramarama went down outside because I woke up to 20 missed calls, 5 texts, 3 voicemails and a pounding at my bedroom door.
n
Then I ate some oreos and here I am! Productive day 🙂

Now, I’m going to explain my face. Before ANYONE yells “duck face” please be known I’m smirking hardcore in this picture not puckering my lips. Why am I smirking or grinning so slyly? The point was to take a picture of my ring. The minute I flipped the camera off with a cross on, I smirked. Captured my real expression in a real moment.

Quack.

Rose’s Complete Guide To Valentine’s Day: From Getting Ready to Getting in Bed
Part Three: Candies & Valentine’s!
n
I know I promised that today I would show you how one thing can make or break your Valentine’s look HOWEVER, I’m running a bit behind and was on the phone in talks for a new acting project all afternoon so I was unable to do this TODAY, it will be moved and today we’re going to get a little more innocent and talk about Valentine’s Day. The hallmark Valentine’s Day. The one without the passion, without the intensity and without the love. School, friends, candies & cards. Now for as long as I can remember I have ALWAYS passed out Valentine’s Day cards EVERY YEAR from the time I was in elementary school I love passing out cards which you might notice I do on Christmas too heh. Now, who says that Valentine’s Day is for little kids? Obviously it’s not since it’s the STEAMIEST holiday around but since Hallmark has decided to take the Holiday and turn it directly into just that: a hallmark holiday.
n
The minute something becomes hallmark which is literally EVERYTHING it seems it’s “dead”. But it’s the thought that counts. You live everyday day to day, so why not make an excuse to do something nice for your friends? Filling out childish little cards telling you love them in the cheesiest ways not only makes THEIR day better, you’ll feel better for making their day better AND you can pretend that just for one day you’re in elementary school again! Everyone wants to be a child, unless you are a child in which case you are in WAYYY too much of a hurry to grow up and I promise you’ll regret it fully when you are grown. I want my mommy!
n
Now for those of you without Valentine’s, be sure to grab your best friend or all of your favourite ladies and have a single party! Nothing like finding single guys to mingle with on Valentine’s Day! I guess the only thing I’m trying to say is don’t feel sorry for yourself on Valentine’s Day and DON’T make it into a bad holiday because you’re sulking. Why? Because realistically Valentine’s Day doesn’t have anything to do with anything. Being single isn’t the worst in the world and if you’re going through a breakup at this time of year keep in mind that others are too! I’m having more relationship problems than ever this month but guess what? It’s a day of the month named after Saint Valentine where you get to dress pretty, eat chocolates and there’s nothing too bad with getting yourself back out in the game am I right?
n
(For the record, this is more of Valentine’s DAY blog and yesterday was Valentine’s NIGHT blog so give candies & cards to your friends and save the chocolates & flowers for the intimate night<3!)
n
How many of you plan to pass out cards this year? What about candies?! If you could pass out the candies to whoever you wanted, would you get the anti Valentine’s Day ones or spread the love with the regular messages? If you could DESIGN a Valentine’s Day card what would you put on it?
