How To Take The Perfect Selfie!
Hello Fashionistas! Selfies have become such a big part of today's pop culture and I have to admit that they are my guilty pleasure too... I know people are always saying that selfies are a sign of vanity etc. However I do believe that there is a great sense of power in controlling your own image! So I decided to share a few tips with you in order to make your #SelfieGame even stronger! Let's start...
1. Find the perfect lighting... I think that daylight is the best option here, but not the harsh midday light... Try the light during the morning and afternoon light for a softer and gentler result!
2. Learn your angles! I find it that a selfie taken from above is really flattering for me, but only you can know what works best for your face... And you can only learn that by taking a bunch!
3. Use your hands... Did you just got your nails done? Show them! It will make the pic much more interesting!
4. Don't stick to the usual duckface! I do it all the time myself, but I always try to play around with my mood... Smile or try the fish gape (slightly open mouth) for difference!
5. Use props! Try on that crazy cat ears headband or hold your fav flower... The result will be so much fun!
6. If you're opting for a #nomakeup selfie, try taking it after a long, good, eight hour sleep... Your face and eyes will look so fresh! #IWokeUpLikeThis right?
7. For mirror selfies use your favorite statement case... Sure, iPhone looks perfect but an interesting case will be more appealing to the eye!
8. Just have fun! Don't take the whole thing too seriously... Smile and play around! The result will be much more natural than if you're trying too hard. If it's just ain't happening try another time when you're in a better mood!
And since I mentioned cases before... I have to talk about mine! I found it on Henna By Hilary... Hilary is hand drawing gorgeous designs that you can find in bags, cases etc. She's really talented and this case certainly makes a great fashion statement... I found her -no surprise there- on instagram! Now that you know all my selfie secrets, go ahead... Have fun, be a #SelfieQueen and snap away!

Hello Fashionistas! Οι selfies έχουν γίνει αναπόσπαστο κομμάτι της σημερινής pop κουλτούρας και πρέπει να παραδεχτώ πως και για εμένα αποτελούν μια guilty pleasure... Ξέρω ότι συνήθως λέγεται πως πρόκειται για κάτι πολύ ματαιόδοξο κλπ. Παρόλα αυτά πιστεύω πως υπάρχει μεγάλη δύναμη στο να ελέγχεις τη δική σου εικόνα! Έτσι αποφάσισα να μοιραστώ μαζί σας μερικά tips ώστε να κάνετε το #SelfieGame σας ακόμη δυνατότερο! Ας αρχίσουμε λοιπόν...
1. Βρείτε το κατάλληλο φωτισμό! Πιστεύω πως το φως της ημέρας αποτελεί τη καλύτερη επιλογή, όχι όμως το σκληρό φως του μεσημεριού... Για ένα πιο μαλακό και ευγενικό αποτέλεσμα δοκιμάστε το πρωινό φως ή αυτό του σούρουπου!
2. Μάθετε τις γωνίες σας! Βρίσκω πως στη δική μου περίπτωση μια selfie τραβηγμένη από ψιλά είναι πιο κολακευτική, αλλά μόνο εσείς μπορείτε να γνωρίζετε τι ''δουλεύει'' καλύτερα για το πρόσωπο σας... Και το μαθαίνετε καλύτερα με το να βγάζετε πολλές!
3. Αξιοποιήστε τα χέρια σας... Μόλις τελειώσατε από ένα εξαιρετικό μανικιούρ; Δείξτε το! Θα δώσει πολύ μεγαλύτερο ενδιαφέρον!
4. Μην μένετε μόνο στο duckface! Το κάνω κι εγώ συνέχεια, προσπαθώ όμως να παίζω και με τη διάθεση μου... Χαμογελάστε ή κάντε το fish gape (ελαφρώς ανοιχτό στόμα) για διαφορά!
5. Χρησιμοποιήστε props! Δοκιμάστε εκείνη την τρελή στέκα με τα αυτάκια γάτας ή κρατήσετε το αγαπημένο σας λουλούδι... Το αποτέλεσμα θα είναι πολύ πιο fun!
6. Αν στοχεύετε στην τέλεια #NoMakeUpSelfie, δοκιμάστε να τη βγάλετε μετά από έναν καλό, μακρύ, οκτάωρο ύπνο... Το πρόσωπο και τα μάτια σας θα δείχνουν πολύ πιο φρέσκα! #ΙWokeUpLikeThis σωστά;
7. Για mirror selfies χρησιμοποιήστε την αγαπημένη σας statement θήκη... Σίγουρα ένα iPhone δείχνει όμορφο αλλά μια ενδιαφέρουσα θήκη θα κάνει το αποτέλεσμα πολύ πιο ελκυστικό στο μάτι!
8. Βασικά απλά have fun! Μην παίρνετε την όλη διαδικασία πολύ στα σοβαρά... Το αποτέλεσμα θα είναι άλλωστε πολύ καλύτερο από το αν προσπαθείτε υπερβολικά. Αν απλά δεν συμβαίνει εκείνη τη στιγμή αφήστε το και δοκιμάστε πάλι όταν θα έχετε καλύτερη διάθεση!
Και μιας και αναφέραμε σε θήκες... Δεν θα μπορούσα να μην μιλήσω για τη δική μου! Τη βρήκα στο site Henna By Hilary... Η Hilary ζωγραφίζει με το χέρι υπέροχα σχέδια τα οποία μπορείτε να βρείτε σε τσάντες, θήκες κλπ. Είναι πολύ ταλαντούχα και η συγκεκριμένη θήκη αποτελεί σίγουρα statement... Τη βρήκα -φυσικά- στο instagram! Τώρα που γνωρίζετε όλα τα selfie μυστικά μου, εμπρός... Have fun, γίνετε μια #SelfieQueen και καλό snapping!
