Your Fashion Style 1: The Color Combo 4 U

There are 4 main types of colors in fashion (this is what I call them):

Setbacks: Neutrals, deeper tints, shades. Setbacks are basically colors that don't pop and stay in the background. Examples are:

Black
White
Grey
Beige 
Indigo

Tone Downs: These are deeper shades of colors, but not as dull as setbacks. They are supporting colors. Examples are:

Khaki
Maroon
Deep Aqua
Dark Violet
Magenta

Fresh Ups: These brighten up, or freshen up your outfit. They don't always stand out so much, but they help you look brighter and are good for accessories. Examples are:

Baby Blue
Spring Green
Sunlight Orange
Lavender
Light Plum

High Lights: These colors just pop.Too much of these can look weird in an outfit, but they look great if you use them right. Examples are:

Scarlet
Lime
Citrus Orange
Bright Aqua
Sunlight Yellow

Now you know my basic color groups. Now here's a little quiz (I tried to make it as accurate as possible) to see the best combo for you!

A)Boston (2 points)
B)Miami (4 points)
C)New York (1 point)

D)7.5-10 (3)

4. Which accessory do you like most?

Fashion: Disney Stars

Styles are so nice between these Disney Stars!!
Let me give you some examples~


Selena Gomez (Wizards of Waverly Place)



Selena Gomez's outfits are so color coordinated. Especially in the 2nd outfit, her seperate pieces of clothing aren't too fancy, but she puts them together so well that the belt and scarf stand out without clashing too much.
PS Love the shoes~


Samantha Boscarino & Bridgit Mendler (Good Luck Charlie)
I love both outfits here. Samantha Boscarino chose a really nice shade of purple (Note: your chose of purple can change the whole outfit) and the belt ties it all together (no pun intended) without standing out too much. She has a more fun-loving kind of style. Bridgit Mendler has a different style. She makes sparkly or shiny shirts accent without being so crazy. The shirt pops because of her jean jacket and the bag, since it sits in the back and accompanies it. She really has balance in her outfit.


Laura Marano (Austin and Ally)


If you can't tell, Laura Marano's style is pretty feminine. She wears bright colours (most likely because the show takes place in Miami) but she has neutral colours to tone it down. She basically has a way of putting things together. That yellow and brown shouldn't work, but it does.


Debby Ryan (Jessie)

I like to think of Debby Ryan's style as "tough, but still a girl". She still loves skirts and wears very feminine colours, but unlike Laura Marano, her colours and tones give off a stronger message exam. the jean jacket in the 1st outfit.Also in the 2nd outfit, the jacket is a very strong shade of gray while the pink shimmers behind.

Heart Attack by Demi Lovato

Hey! Gloria here!
I hope you guys like the layout! I spent a lot of time on it... :P
Well, I'm not here writing this post about the layout, it's about music!
Demi Lovato's new song is all over Twitter and Facebook!

It's "Heart Attack"  Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdlEGQk_8TE&list=UUnyB9MYKRkSFK3IIB32CoVw&index=2

Something I love about Demi is that she is so real, everyone can relate to her so well with break ups, and that's why she is the perfect artist to sing break up songs, other than Taylor Swift (which is a whole different story! Another article for another day!)

Demi can actually write things that will make sense, not something random to fill in a missing syllable.

My favourite line in this song is: "But you make me wanna act like a girl. Paint my nails and wear high heels," 
The reason is because for girls they feel that they have to change how they act and how they look to get the guy to notice you. It's CRAZY how guys can control you. No one can change you, only you can change yourself, remember that.
