Some of you think my It Girl title is coming off too strong. I disagree, because I love it. But I don't feel that it's, you know, me!
The term 'It Girl' is meant for you, my readers. Because we're all It Girls at something - everyone stands out in an individual way. It's what makes us shine!
But for some reason, Lol Vibe, my alternative name (on Twitter and Tumblr) sounds much more fun and original.
Lol Vibe is inspired by the French 2008 movie, LOL.

What do you think? Send me mail on itgirlvibe@gmail.com or comment right here! x
UPDATE: No way in hell am I gonna change my name now. It'd be too much hassle, you know, changing everything (Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter, Polyvore, BlogLovin, Pinterest...). Lolvibe? What was I thinking?What was I thinking. Maybe later.
Seventeen Magazine just got better - with an online virtual nail salon!
You will pick your skin tone first. Then you can choose to paint all nails at once with the colours/patters provided, or pick the option to paint each nail separately.
The last awesome thing to do is to select the design mode, where you add the designs available to nails!
It's not only great fun, and great for testing out which colours suit you. If you do nail art tutorials, this is great if haven't got time to spare to paint your nails at home, take photos, etc.
You just click the download button and then attach it to your website/ blog! Easy!
I want to be Harry Potter.
I want to go to Hogwarts.
I want to do some MAGIC!
But that ain't gonna happen, so all us hopefuls are left with is the Harry Potter World Tour..
And now a STORE! And not the one with those ordinary black T-Shirts with 'Harry Potter' written all over it. This, my friends, it the real deal. Look!
I see WANDS!
I gotta have that Slytherin scarf (Pottermore says I belong to that house!)
That's it. That is it. I'm taking a train to London, right now, just to get into that SHOP!
Fuck. me. I'm so excited.
The store is open at Platform 93/4 - how awesome is that!?
Do something nice! Easy:
Watch this video! For every view, a free meal gets donated to an animal shelter!
Watch it off Youtube! Medium:
Give money to charity!
Maybe you got a lot of Christmas money that you can share with people in need!
Or go buy little things from a charity shop, like games and jewelry - who knows what treasures you might find in that small room!
Advanced:
If you've got a heart of 24 karat gold, you'll be happy to hear this! You can help serve dinner for homeless people! (Maybe next year or this year if you find something). Homeless people aren't just old aloholics. You might find young people thrown out of their homes (for reasons like homosexuality even!!) and people with pets, and men and women who can't afford life at a house.
Read Cathy Hopkins book series Million Dollar Mates - it's great stuff, and one of the books includes something like this.
PLUS Pet Owners/Luvers:

Mr Bean: Merry Christmas (Full Episode)
Make-up Idea: Day
This make-up idea is best for Christmas outside parties with snow! Your white eyeshadow will brighten up your eyes and blend in with the icyness around you, while a bright coloured eyeliner and mascara, if possible (any colour of your choice) adds a fun pop to your look!
Night
Partially smokey eyes! Choose a lighter colour for the inner part of your eyelid. Gradually blend in a darker shade of eyeshadow until you reach the end of the lid, where it's at its darkest. Repeat for bottom. For the most stylish results, use lilac and purple as it's the season's hottest.

Q - I fucking hate my nose. It's like one of those that stick out at the top, a dolphin nose. Like snowwhite witch had, get me? I don't want plastic surgery cause A I'm only 17 and B I know the side effects. So is there anythin I can do about it?
I know ur not a magician -.- but i need some boost.
Sincerely Mememe
A - You lucky bitch! You know how much some people want a nose like that? Hispanic girls are considered so beautiful and some of them have these noses, which make them such beauties!
Michelle Christensen, Gurl.com comics extract
A girl from Tumblr: i will always love the way i am, and NOT let anyone tell me different
Do I even need to comment? I'm jealous!
Cheryl Cole has a 'dolphin' nose but it gives her beauty!
Ellie Goulding, need I say more?
Barbra Streisand young, what a gorgeous girl!
You may now say: But I'm not that pretty. Bullcrap - we're all have beauty, it's a fact. You just need to find a way to it. Accepting youself is a start - confidence is key, and it will reveal the dead gorgeous you.
Huns and hunnettes (what?), you should all have your Xmas shopping done by now! If you still don't know, check my previous posts for ideas or research how to make home-made gifts if you find yourself skint!
Christmas Stories:
Some of you asked for some stories I promised, so I pulled a couple off of here
Chippenham George worked for the Post Office and his job was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses. One day just before Christmas, a letter landed on his desk simply addressed in shaky handwriting: 'To God'. With no other clue on the envelope, George opened the letter and read:
Dear God,
I am an 93 year old widow living on the State pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had £100 in it, which was all the money I had in the world and no pension due until after Christmas. Next week is Christmas and I had invited two of my friends over for Christmas lunch. Without that money, I have nothing to buy food with. I have no family to turn to, and you are my only hope. God; can you please help me?
Chippenham George was really touched, and being kind hearted, he put a copy of the letter up on the staff notice board at the main Fareham sorting office where he worked. The letter touched the other postmen and they all dug into their pockets and had a whip round. Between them they raised £95. [$170 USD] Using an officially franked Post Office envelope, they sent the cash on to the old lady, and for the rest of the day, all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of the nice thing they had done.
Christmas came and went. A few days later, another letter simply addressed to 'God' landed in the Sorting Office. Many of the postmen gathered around while George opened the letter. It read,
Dear God,
How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me? Because of your generosity, I was able to provide a lovely luncheon for my friends. We had a very nice day, and I told my friends of your wonderful gift - in fact we haven't gotten over it and even Father John, our parish priest, is beside himself with joy. By the way, there was £5 [$10 USD] missing. I think it must have been those thieving fellows at the Post Office.
Apparently an invisible planet was meant to crash with the earth! And another rumour about the planet exploding. Then I heard a story about the earth being sucked into the.. milky way... Nice. Well done bye.
'Keep on daaancing till the woorld ends!'
Remember last year, when everybody was going crazy about the end of the world? This nutty girl kept bugging that it's the last Christmas!
And the dumb rumours about world ending at 11:11 - how does that make any sense?
And I thought people are smarter than this! I wonder if some people are actually hiding under the grounds or wherever. Feeling dumb.
Let Higa explain!
Sorry for the recent video overload instead of actual writing. But as you can tell, I don't have much time on my hands right now! Who'd like to guest post? One day this site might be famooouuuss and you'll get a job at Teen Vogue (:
Well I hope you had a nice day,
Instead of taking it as the end of the world, take it as a new calendar - the old one ends, let's start over! This time, be a better person. Remember: grace, gratitude, hard work and patience. And more of course!
Video of Day 21:
Mmm, I'm thinking we should listen to some Christmas songs that hold the meaning of this celebration! Whether you're a Christian or not, these melodies are beautiful!
Christmas Fact:
Who gave Santa a red coat?
His wife? A vampire? Nope. Coca Cola!
Yep, just so you know, Santa Clause used to have a green coat! I just found out today, call me stupid.
Speaking of Coke, remember last year when the company produced a special Christmas packaging for the first time ever? It didn't go well, as diabetic people mistaken it for diet coke :/ that couldn't have been pretty!
Personally I find this design awesome! Simple, yet so delicate and it makes me well happy!
