How To Dress Festive For The Outdoors

This time of year is always spectacular. Houses lit up with red and green lights, the towns and villages decorated like a winter wonderland and the Christmas spirit all around you. One way to celebrate this time is taking a walk around the block and looking at everyone’s decorations or even looking at your town’s beautiful Christmas tree.

Here’s Chicastic’s head-to-toe guide on how to dress festive while you’re walking around outdoors.

Head: Beanies are never going out of style. They are stylish and comfortable all while keeping you warm in the colder weather. Check out the different colors our slouchy beanies come in. You’ll find one to match every outfit you have.

Neck: Not only are scarves the perfect accessory for the winter season, they are incredibly warm too! We have many scarves in all different shapes and colors from infinity to fashion statements, we have them all!

Body: Jackets aren’t your only option to keep your body warm while braving the cold weather. Why not try a poncho? They are just as fashionable as a jacket but not as bulky. This makes walking around more comfortable. Plus, you’ll get rid of the constant struggle of taking your jacket on and off while going inside and outside.

Bottom: Leggings are always the perfect go to pant. They match everything, just like jeans, but are cozy and made of breathable material. This makes walking outside comfortable. We have so many different styles to choose from. You’ll want to buy them all!

Shoes: Make sure you wear shoes that you can wear all day long. You’ll be doing a lot of walking around and the last thing you need are blisters all over your feet. We recommend sneakers or moccasins. But don’t forget to pack your favorite pair of heels for your late night plans!

Accessories: Of course you can’t leave the house without a few statement pieces. You can choose necklaces, rings or why not a clutch? Instead of carrying a huge handbag just use a clutch to keep your money and keys in. Our snakeskin leather clutch fits all of your necessities in one compact place.

Secret Santa Ideas

So you and your friends decided to do a secret Santa. Of course if you picked out your best friends name you would know exactly what to get them without even having to think about it. But what about when you pick out someone you don’t know all too well? You might not know what to get the new girl in your friend group or your friends coworker might be in on this fun gift giving idea.

As always, Chicastic has you covered.

First things first, check with the group to see if you have a spending limit. Most secret Santa’s do. This keeps the group presents generally in the same range.

Now you can begin your search for the perfect gift.

We recommend jewelry as our number one go to secret Santa gift. What girl doesn’t like a good necklace? Even if the person receiving doesn’t always wear jewelry, it’s something that every woman should have for those just in-case moments.

Makeup Tips and Tricks

Here at Chicastic, we sell an excellent makeup brush set that comes with 24 pieces! We have it all in this kit, ranging from foundation to lip brushes and everything in between.

So you’re sitting in your satin robe with the kit you ordered for yourself and you need a little help with how to create that perfect look.

No worries! Chicastic is here to help!

♦  Eyebrows: As we all know your eyebrows must be “on fleek” but how do you know if you’re looking polished and not like you drew them on with a marker? Begin with picking out the perfect shade for your hair and skin tone. Your eyebrows should be a little darker than your hair color while complimenting your skin tone. Next, you need to decide how to fill them in…pencil or a pomade? A pencil adds shape and precision while a pomade will define with color. The final step in getting the perfect eyebrows is using your eyebrow comb found in your Chicastic makeup set to comb your hair into place. This will also set the color giving the final definition of shape.

Contour Brush: The newest beauty trend is contouring. Contouring is adding definition and shape by changing the shade of face makeup. By contouring you can completely change how your face appears! Using a bronzer and the Chicastic Contour Brush, apply the makeup just under your cheekbone in a diagonal towards your ear. Then apply bronzer to the outer edge of your nose and just at your jawline. Finally, using the powder brush, blend in the bronzer. Tah-dah! You have successfully contoured your face!

Eyeliner: Winged eyeliner is a classic look and perfect for any occasion! Take the eyeliner brush and dip it into a gel eyeliner. Starting from the outside corner of your eye, create an angle as high as you want the wing to be. Then from the top of the wing, begin a downward angle towards the inner corner of your eye. Last step, fill in the lines. You can make this as simple or drastic as you wish.

Lip Brush: Nothing is better than a good shape of lipstick to compliment a perfect look. Dip the lip brush in any shade lipstick (we are loving the classic red lip) and start by lining the top and bottom lip. Don’t over-line too much or else you’ll look like a clown! Follow the natural arch of your lips and then fill in. Don’t forget to blot the extra makeup with a tissue, you don’t want it all over your teeth. Finish by setting your lipstick with a translucent powder and you’re ready to go!
