#Lauren LA Tips; "When is the best time of year to wear flower earring studs?"

The best time is usually between March 1st through September 13th, literally. Lol One reason I'm saying such specific times is because some people wear flower earrings all year long thinking they're starting a whole new and alllll that, when it's really the opposite. They usually end up looking like those people most people see at the store wearing giant snowflake, snowman, or molded earrings that say "Merry Christmas!" in June. Lol Flower earrings (Especially studs) tend to be like real flowers. If you do or are going to wear flower studs year-round, here's a basic guide;

Spring; Daisies, Tulips, Lilies
Summer; Pale roses, Neon (Or rhinestone featuring) daisies, Bright Marigolds (Look like puffs)
Fall; Muted Sunflowers, Silver or Bronze Leafs, Maple Leaves
Winter; Holly Berries (Mistletoe), Maple Leaves, Poinsettia (Red Christmas flowers), Dark Roses

Hope this helps when picking out floral earrings to wear year-round without looking like you don't even know what season it might be when it's snowing! Lol

Thank for reading and I'll be blogging more soon! ;)

#Lauren LA Tips; "How often should I replace my nail files, and can I do something to help keep them going longer?"

Some of the best ways to keep a Nail File usable longer is to;

A) Keep them in a case rather than just kind of sliding around in your purse and damaging the fabric and/or leather and other things in your purse.
B) Do Not bend them (Or at least avoid bending them).
And
C) Do NOT expose them to water! It causes the Nail File to suck up water and become soggy and smooth, and then eventually grow mold. Trust me, I've been there.

Generally (Like if you use your Nail Files for mostly smoothing chips and only do full-on fling 1-2 times a month, then it's usually better to replace them every 1 and a half to 2 months. Replacing them every 2 months is way better, but you should also keep a spare in your purse or backpack in case of emergencies. Hope this helps you determine how often you should replace your Nail Files and how to help them last longer! ;)

#Lauren LA Tips; "Can the shade "Sea Foam Green" highlight my dark brown eyes?

Actually, not as much as you think. :( Lavender or Navy Blue would be WAY better! If you have very fair skin though, it may work if you apply very Light Pink blush to your cheeks, Clear lipgloss to your lips, and make sure you wear something of that color like a thick bangle with mini clear rhinestones, a V-neck half-sleeve, or just a pair of sandals and/necklace! That's one of the tricks when it comes to eyeshadow. ;) Usually, not always, if you add an accessory that false pretty close in that color category, it helps fit in and enhance your eyes. But if you need some breaking up between the eyeshadow you're wearing (Whether it enhances your eyes or not) so you don't look like "Purple's #1 Fan" or are "Mellow for Yellow", the best thing to do would be to have a thin but noticeable line (Not cats eye) of black eyeliner. Hope this helps when picking eyeshadow's to highlight your eyes! ;)

#Lauren LA Tips; "How do I test my new Water-Proof mascara? "

Usually what I like to do is apply Water Proof Mascara 1 hour before washing my face and then thoroughly wash with lukewarm water. Here's the basic scale I like to go by;

Splotches (Actual pieces of mascara) Under the Eyes; Drying unevenly due to excessive layering or uneven application

   2. Pigment Under and Around the Eyes; Mascara may have a larger than average amount of
dye if the color starts to hit a very muted gray-black. It could also mean that the mascara
   has not yet dried and has to completely dry throughout the day rather than 15 minutes to
   1 hour.

   3. Both Splotches and Pigment; Could also be a symbol of taking too long to dry, but if the
            mascara feels and looks dry when feeling your eyelashes in between your fingers (Do NOT
              pull), there's actually a big chance that's it's of these;

Cheap
Not suitable for swimming and other water activities
Has been exposed to heat for too long (Ex; Ordered it off the internet and it sat in the mailbox or outside for over 1 hour.)

NOTE; Their can be other reasons for Water-Proof Mascara to "bleed" or "cry". This is just what I usually go by when trying out a new mascara that claims to be Water-Proof. Hopes this helps and I'll be blogging more soon! ;)

#Lauren LA Tips; "What bag should you wear to a friends house?"

This first Lauren LA Tip isn't going to be all that long, but if it IS a little long to you, their will be a summary at the end of this post. ;)

This Lauren LA Tip is about "What bag you should wear to a friends house". The reason I chose this tip is because I've been there. Things like accidentally spilling soda or popping a bag of chips happen, but it's a little harder to accept when it ends up on your purse...Lol To help prevent another purse casualty from coming up in the future, I've set these basic rules for myself;

Go with either a Dark or Colorful bag (Like a Vera Bradley) in terms of pattern.
Go with something that is actually closer to your shoulder rather than a Cross Bag or Satchel (Adjustable strap bags work too.
Keep in mind the size. There's a bigger chance that a tote would get soda spilled at over it then medium wristlet.
TEXTURE! It plays one of the ULTIMATE roles in MANY situations! Faux leather is usually the best way to go for it's usually forgiving nature when it comes to things like most dyes, dirt, and crumbs. With velvety or silky fabric, you're just asking for trouble. Velvet because most stains can virtually not be removed and it traps in the odors, and Silky fabric because little pieces of thread get easily and plucked out permanently damaging it, and it's also hard to remove stains on the fabric too.
And lastly, Accessories! Sometimes it's better to tone the your purse's jewelry down because of what happens to the following;

Chains; Tend to start rusting after coming in contact with water or other fluids
Plastic beads; Tend to trap water and other fluids and then start to look as if they're "rotting"
Wooden beads; Tend to become soggy and sometimes even smell if exposed to too much humid air and/or water and other fluids too long. Also become increasingly easy to scratch and chip.
Rhinestones/Plated Rhinestones (On things like metal clasps); Surface dye of rhinestones start to fade if they go through to much use or being used. Plated rhinestones start to take on a rusty color (See Chains)
Leather straps or tassels; Tend to stain easily on softer side, Doesn't take to much to cause wear n tear in this situation.

And these are pretty much all the rules!

Here's the summary;

DO'S

DO go for a Dark or Colorful Pattern
DO go for shoulder length straps
DO go for something slightly smaller than the average bag (Go for about around 7-9" inches high and 7-8" long)
DO go with Faux Leather OR solid plastic if you're really not sure
DO go slightly more understated in purse accessories

DON'T'S

DON'T go for a very light solid color ( Like White)
DON'T go for another Cross Body bag!
DON'T go for a much larger than average bag (13-15" inches high and 14-17" long)
DON'T go for Silky or Velvety fabrics. You WILL get burned!
DON'T go for an "Over-accessorized" purse (Keep it understated )

I hope that helps you next time you have trouble deciding! ;) Btw, I now have an app on the left side of the page that lets you send in questions and suggestions on what to blog about next! Thanks for reading and I'll be blogging more soon!

First Lauren LA Tip coming at 9:00 A.M!!! <^U'>

#Another Update!

Hey! Just a quick update that 2DrawLife.blogspot.com blog has been remodeled, and that daily tips are coming soon! They're pretty much things like "What bag to wear to a friends house" (You may think it sounds crazy, but from person experience, it not. Lol) and "How to organize your closet To the Xtreme and things of that sort. I'll be posting, like, Right After this post, and the first Lauren LA Tips will either be about "What Bag to Wear to a Friends House" or "Organizing 101". Remember that these really are random but useful tips, but they will have their own label so it's easy to look them up any time.

Example;

Post Name; "How to Create New Trend Nail Looks"
(About nails. Duh! Lol)
Labels; Lauren LA Tips, Nails

Plus, I'm going to try to make the labels A LOT easier to understand! Om gosh, I was classifying this post and the labels are pretty out of whack. Lol I'm thinking about just being straight up about the labels meaning mostly basics that are easier to understand (Like Eyes, Face, Fashion Hair Lips, Nails, ect.). Thanks for reading and I'll be blogging more soon! <^U'>
