August Giveaway Alert and Fall Fashion Focus

Posted in BEAUTY TREATMENT, FACE PRIMER, FASHION, GIVEAWAYS, MAKE-UP, SKINCARE on August 1, 2012 by stylebymeli

August Welcome:  Is it me or do the summer months just seem to go by that much faster?!  As much as I love the leisureliness of summer, I have to admit that my mind has already fast-forwarded to fall.  Fall has always been my favorite season as I love the transition of weather and the fashion is often unbeatable.  A lot of my inspiration comes from perusing the runways and I wanted to jumpstart this month with a look at Lanvin’s 2012 collection:

Lanvin 2012 – I love the dramatic feminineness behind this collection along with its exquisitely modern glamour and opulent taste.   

This month I would like to share more fall fashion along with some new beauty treats I’m currently obsessed with!  I’m always trying new products and the best part is being able to share them through my blog!

Being that I always stress the importance of a good primer, this month’s giveaway is a mini primer set that features three of Tarte’s best makeup priming products!

July Giveaway Alert and Getting Back on Track

Posted in GIVEAWAYS, MAKE-UP, PRODUCTS I LOVE, STYLE BY MELI GIVEAWAYS, TRAVEL on July 1, 2012 by stylebymeli

July Welcome:  Hope everyone is having a fabulous summer (I know I am)!  Last month, it was very hard for me to find the time to kick back and blog (as much as I truly wanted to!), so my goal this month is to get back on track and contribute more posts.  It should be much easier for me to do that as I’ll have much more free time this month as compared to June.

It’s so easy for me to get caught up working, especially being that I don’t consider it to be “work” as I’m so passionate about what I do; so besides focusing on working non-stop, I really want to focus on hanging out with friends/loved ones, health/fitness, and RELAXATION…ah, what a beautiful thing…(Please see image below):

This looks so peaceful and relaxing, I just need to visualize more on it this month! Seeing is believing! ;)

Despite my blog absence, I noticed it has not negatively impacted my reader statistics and that there is still such blog loyalty, which I’m truly grateful for!  Thanks for always visiting, reading, and following!

June Giveaway Alert and More Makeup Questions

Posted in GIVEAWAYS, MAKE-UP, PRODUCTS I LOVE, STYLE BY MELI GIVEAWAYS, STYLE BY MELI UPDATES on June 2, 2012 by stylebymeli

June Welcome:  Why hello, hello!  For starters, I want to greatly apologize for the delay on this welcome post.  With bridal season picking up, while also finishing the tail end of prom season, my free time has been exceptionally limited these days.  Again, this does not mean I’m taking a break blogging, just that I may not be able to post as frequently as I’d like to.   

Although this will be another busy month, I do want to focus on contributing makeup questions  (ideally once a week) with some of the most asked questions I get as a makeup artist.  I like to focus on quality content and share valuable knowledge that everyone may not already be familiar with.  [Really random, but...] I’ve actually been taking tennis lessons for the past month and it’s so out of my comfort zone that it makes me realize that what’s “common knowledge” to me is not always the case for most people (in other words, not everyone lives in a fashion and makeup filled world like I do)!  My tennis teacher will explain things that I’m not familiar with whatsoever, so I can only imagine the same goes with makeup/fashion!  

So if anyone has any makeup questions they would like to ask me, feel free to also add them below as a comment or please do not hesitate to contact me directly.  Chances are, I will feature it in an upcoming post! ;)

PS- Hope you enjoy this month’s giveaway, I’m in love with this stuff!  I discovered the body butter a year ago and was happy to find this gift set at Sephora, perfect for this month’s giveaway!

May Giveaway Alert and My Stylish Picks Feature

Posted in CELEBRITY FASHION, FASHION, GIVEAWAYS, MAKE-UP, STYLE BY MELI GIVEAWAYS, STYLE BY MELI UPDATES on May 1, 2012 by stylebymeli

May Welcome:  As a style/beauty blogger, I’m always looking for new inspiration and ideas for upcoming features within my blog.  However, besides striving to create brilliant content, I also want to put a sharper focus on the visual presentation.  

My absolute favorite magazine has always been Harper’s Bazaar.  What captivates my attention most is the extraordinary layouts of this publication.  Their attention to detail and creativity has always exceeded my expectations.  In a recent issue, I read about their extra efforts to change up their layouts being that fashion is always changing, so should their visual presentation.    

In terms of new features, I have been thinking of new ways to showcase fashion trends within my blogs and will share a [My Stylish Picks] section.  I haven’t created one yet, but do expect to see at least one this month!

April Giveaway Alert and Reader Focus Content

Posted in GIVEAWAYS, MAKE-UP, STYLE BY MELI GIVEAWAYS, STYLE BY MELI UPDATES on April 1, 2012 by stylebymeli

Hi everyone, time to welcome a new month and although I’m getting a late start, you will see that I’ll be playing blog catch-up as I’ll be finishing up posts I had started and post a few all at one time.  

I always have a lot to write about but really have been taking the time to listen to my readers and focusing on what they like to read most.  Although this has always been a fashion and beauty blog, I’m very happy to write about health/fitness as well being that I feel they do correlate and my readers thoroughly find the value of its content.  In time, I may actually start a blog dedicated to this area of interest, but until then, you will be able to find some fitness/health posts within this blog! 

I want to point out that last month, I reached over 100,000 hits on my blog which is pretty amazing to say the least!  Thank you everyone for your blog loyalty, whether you are you a client, friend, family member, or live on the other side of the world, just know that I genuinely value your readership!  Also, don’t forget to reach out to me if there is anything specific you would like me to write about!  I’m always open to new topics and love to share my professional expertise!        

April is always a really busy month for me but as always, I am dedicated to blogging as much as I can and really happy with the information I plan on sharing this month.  Stay tuned!
