Picture Day!

Picture day is coming up at my school; actually, it's in two days. And all of my friends and I have no idea what to wear! Normally when I don't know what to wear, so I go to Pinterest or Instagram for inspiration. Today I'm going to try to help you with your head-to-toe look!

Hair
When it comes to hair I would say don't do any pony tails. If they are at the wrong level then you will look like you have no hair or like a boy. If you can, I would say wear your natural. You don't want to chance that if you use heat on your hair that it might go wrong. I would say wear your hair down with the bangs or top pulled back so you can clearly see your face. If you decide you don't want to pull your hair back that's totally fine.

Makeup
Keep it light. You don't want to be know as that girl in the year book with a makeup line! Make sure that you wear a primer to make your makeup last, and make sure you wear a powdered foundation to cut down shine. You should go for a neutral lipsticks: stay away from lip gloss cause it might act weird with the cameras. As far as blemishe and acne go, don't worry too much about covering them, because they can edit those. Keep it simple on the eye makeup. Less is better.

Outfit
As far as outfits go, don't stress. Most pictures only show like 5% of the whole outfit. Wear a color that compliments your eyes or skin. Don't wear anything too low, and wear something that you are comfortable in. But since at my school we wear a uniforms, this is the only day in the school year we can wear whatever we want (except for spirit wear). Because this is so special I wanted to give you guys some good ideas on stuff you could wear. Keep your outfit simple. Don't wear any big necklaces: that will take away from your face or mess with the camera. keep it to mostly solid colors. The less distractions to your beautiful face the better! :)
Here are some cute fall outfits to inspire you.

These outfits are simple yet fashionable. Just pick a nice shirt in a color you look good in. Some good jeans and some cute flats or your favorite shoes. It really isn't that hard once you break in down. Here are some total looks for your picture day.

Here are some videos I have watched in the past about picture day. This is another place I look for inspiration for important looks! 

Another thing you could do to get ready for picture day is practice smiles. I know this sounds really weird but it's a good idea. Look in the mirror or at past picture of yourself and think of what kind of smile you like. Do you want to do a no teeth smile, a really big smile? Just get your most comfortable smile. You don;t want it to look forced.
