My hair.

Update!  Those of you that think pixies are not versatile enough, think again!  I've found a new way to do my 'do.
ends are flipped up for more body
By flipping the ends with a straightening iron I've transformed my pixie into something that resembles a mini-bob and is super cute with all the new hair accessories that I've found.

For all you gals with pixie cuts, probably the best way to remain looking feminine is to add a little flair with headbands.  I find that making a pronounced separation between the bands and the rest of the hair really gives off a girly vibe which is essential if you want your pixie not to look too boyish.

Walmart provides me with many of my accessories and styling products. Göt2b offers most of my styling products.  I used the "glued" hairspray and "ultra glued" gel.  Also, their "guardian angel" heat protectant is pretty sweet.  I also nabbed these hair bands for about 4 buck-a-roos a pop.  These bows came separately, but I also grabbed a set of four plain ones for only 4 bucks.  Pretty freakin' sweet!
tan bow!
This hair will keep my poor boyfriend sane by reinforcing that I am, indeed, a girl after-all.  Especially after a few Beiber fiascos.

Another tip I want to delve further into is MAKE-UP!!!!

Make-up is awesome in small doses.  In the make-up world (for me at least) less is more.  You want to keep your make-up pretty mild especially with pixie cuts.  A lot of emphasis is going to be on your face and you don't want to cake it on less you look like this.
Whoah, Nelly!
Soft pinks on the lips are always feminine and demure.  Nude tones, pastels, or earthy tones on the eyes are also pretty sweet.  Basically, you want to look as natural as possible or at least as toned down as possible.

I personally love love love the winged eyeliner fad.
Oh, Emma! Cute as ever.  
You can also rock bright lips if you're feeling super classy.  There is a shade of red for EVERYONE you just have to find yours.  If you're black, crazy lip colors are your best friends, especially if you're nice and dark (lucky ducks).  Also, if you have a darker complexion you will have no problem not overdoing crazy eyeshadow.  Seriously, I really envy darker skin girls.  Gorgeous.
such beautiful skin
But I digress.  If you're pale like me, you want soft colors to really girl you up. <3

Well, that's all I got today.  So long, folks.
