Princess Caress's Beauty Blog

I have to admit I don't know everything about Blogging. For instance, I do blog posts from my phone.  When the idea hits me to write a post it does come in handy. But sometimes the browser I use gives me a bit of trouble. I LOVE blogging so stay tuned because I will keep on trying until I perfect the skill of creating the best blog I can!

Fit for a queen! I have some new shoes to fill!   I am very proud and honored to announce that I now hold the title of Ms. Curvy North Carolina 2016! 

I am trying to learn this thing of blogging. I have not gotten all the kinks out yet but stay with me for great things are to come!

I recently ventured to try something new in the world of video editing. I tried doing a "voice-over". Oh my gosh! It was more work than I thought! Some people may have another person to do the editing for their videos but I have to do it myself! I use Windows Movie Maker for mine and it can be very "generic". Some video editing software can be very expensive, mine came with my computer so I figured I I'd try it. Anyway, I found out that you can mess up and add the sound at the wrong place! So very out of sync! Like a bad, very bad B-movie! I have seen other videos where the voice-over is done for makeup tutorials and such but you have to pay close attention to know just where to add voice onto the visuals. Even though you can wear a headset microphone to do this, do not let the hands-free bit fool you! You can really get distracted by the possibility of having your hands available to do other things in this world of multitasking. Oh yes! Give me a reason to...

Spring Is In The Air! Hello everyone! I LOVE Spring! The colors, the smell of the beautiful flowers it just invigorates you! The clean fresh air in the North Carolina mountains lends to that Spring Fever! A trip to the Blue Ridge Parkway is in order!

Good morning! I finally have a new video camera, well it's not new new but it's an upgrade from what I've had in the past! I LOVE photography and hope to post more things soon. Plus I will vlog about my life, experiences and current events also!

LATE SPRING CLEANING! Well, I finally decided to clean out my closet! And I am going to try the tried and true method of using consignment shops! What a great way to clean out your closet and make some extra money! You can sell items for cash! Now you may need to check around because some shops vary among percentage given and the details or policies of their shop or boutique.  I have also made some great finds at these places!  The beautiful Evan Picone handkerchief hem skirt in a paisley print that I purchased at a local consignment store was $6.00! I love this shimmery gold bolero sweater by Derek Heart that I happened to find on the clearance rack at a local discount store. Under the sweater is a camisole that I had also purchased years ago at a Lane Bryant store. The wedge-style sandals are by Fergie and the style is called "Zaila". I bought them from Overstock.com which was my first purchase there ever and needless to say the my experience was...

Check out my Fashion Videos for great "Outfit Of The Day" looks! A "Lookbook" is coming soon! And more makeup tutorials as well!!

I am so very sorry that I have not written anything for a while but my life has been very full and busy! I wish everyone the best that life has to offer! And keep smiling! 

Fall is finally here! I love the cooler, crisp air! The color of the leaves, everything has a different feeling to it! Love the Fall season!

Yeah! Finally we get to experience those crisp, cool nights! I love the Fall season! From the bold colors of the leaves, to the sound the fallen leaves make as they crunch under your feet! It is not the uncomfortable sweltering humid heat of Summer. It's the season of comfort! And a time for gatherings. The cosy comfort of having friends and family bundling up around the house plus the delicious and satisfying foods!

Recently, I did a collaboration video with a fellow YouTuber. This is the character from Disney's "Enchanted" movie named "Giselle". I decided to do this look for the "Disney Princess Collaboration" video. This was the look I was going for: This is the look I ended up with... Hope you like it!

  Here is an update video for the review I did on some nail tips I purchased from a local discount store. 

Here is one of the latest reviews that I have done. This is a Vivica Fox Lace Front Wig "Foxy-V" in color GM234!  It kind of reminds me of the "Taraji-V" but without the braided headband!

Some of my favorite jewelry. All pieces were discount store finds! Earrings were $1.00, the Bling Watch $9.99, Necklace $1.00!

                      HAPPY MONDAY EVERYONE! Loving this purple hair! 

Really lovin' this bling!    These are sure to catch attention! This is what I'd call the "Femme Fatale" dress of the year! 

Lovely colors! 

You can do this with broken, old neckchains and a hot glue gun!
