Hello my loves!

Hi babes! Long time no see, huh? I miss y’all so very much, and it pains my heart to see all the messages in my inbox from everyone who says they want me to come back.. I have to be completely honest here. Running this blog has meant more to me than you can ever imagine. I started this blog when I was in 7th grade. 4 years later, and many things have changed, and I have grown up a lot. As for the elephant in the room- I will always love Ariana. Although I may not be the huge fangirl I once was, Ariana and Cat Valentine are still such huge parts of my life, and I will never simply be able to let them go. If you have followed me for a while, you may recall that some of my biggest dreams have been to branch off into my own blog, my own style, my own Youtube channel.. All of which represent myself and my style, rather than Ariana’s.

If you are still interested in me, I would like you to know that I now have my very own website (nicolerandone.com) as well as my very own Youtube channel. I will still be giving my same fashion, makeup, hair, and lifestyle advice, except now, it will all be focused on the things I personally enjoy instead of my beloved Ari. You can also follow me on my personal Instagram, nicolerandone.

As for Omgrandestyle.. I think that it’s time for this chapter of my life to come to a close. I will always cherish the memories and the friends i’ve made here. You all have been a huge part of my growing up, and I can not thank y’all enough for giving me the strength and courage to start making my own personal dreams and goals finally become a reality. It would mean the absolute world to me if you would all support me in the next chapter of my life.

I love you all so so so so much. Remember to dream big. Be who you are. Say what you feel. Never dim your light for anybody. You are all beautiful and brilliant individuals, and I will never forget you.

Xoxo, Nikki

Anonymous asked: Helppp I'm having major trouble how do I do eyebrows like Cat Valentine? what products do I get and how? I'm horrible at eyebrows )):

Hi gorgeous! Eyebrows can definitely be tricky. I recommend using the ELF Professional Studio Eyebrow Kit ($3.00) to fill in and shape your eyebrows to your liking. The color selection isn’t enormous, but this product is literally magic. I guarantee you’ll fall in love with it! I use it practically every day and I have never once had an issue with it. The kit comes with a very easy to use gel and powder duo, I think it’s perfect for beginners!

I don’t want to bore you with a huge essay on how to fill in your brows, so i’ll give you the short and sweet version! Using a spoolie brush, gently comb out your eyebrows so you have the perfect canvas to work with. (If you’re stuck in a pinch and don’t have a spoolie brush on hand, you can use a clean mascara wand! It works just the same, if not better!) Next, take an angled brush and apply the gel to your brows with very light pressure. Use the gel to fill in any sparse areas of your brows as well as shape them accordingly. To achieve Cat’s brow look, try your best to make your brows appear a bit thicker, as well as reduce the appearance of any natural arch that you may have. Once you believe you’re complete, take that same spoolie brush that we used prior and give your brows a quick comb to ensure the product has been distributed evenly. Finally, take a small tapered brush and apply the corresponding powder all over your brows for a flawless look. If you want to take it a step farther, use a concealer slightly lighter than your natural complexion and apply it right underneath your brows onto whats called your “brow bone.” This will give you the appearance of a very “clean” and “neat” brow.

Hope this helped you out a little bit sweetie! Here’s the picture of Cat’s brows that I used as a reference (:

Remember when Cat Valentine became addicted to the fictional British snack “Bibble” on Victorious and we all went insane trying to figure out how to get our hands on the delicious snack? (Or was that just me..?) Search no further! After two years of trial and error, I have finally found the perfect Bibble recipe! It’s super simple to make and easily a snack that everyone can enjoy!

What you’ll need:

½ Cup of Wilton’s Bright Pink Candy Melts

1 Cup of Wilton’s White Candy Melts

2 Cups of Popped Caramel Corn

2 Cups of Popped Buttered Popcorn

(Optional) A dash of Rainbow Nonpareils Sprinkles

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combined 2 cups of popped caramel corn with 2 cups of popped buttered popcorn.
  2. Place ½ cup of Wilton’s bright pink candy melts into a microwavable safe bowl, and microwave on high for 30 seconds. Stir until smooth.
  3. Place 1 cup of Wilton’s white candy melts into a microwavable safe bowl and repeat step #2.
  4. Pour the white candy melts onto the popcorn and stir slowly.
  5. Drizzle the pink candy melts onto the popcorn. DO NOT STIR!
  6. (Optional) Scatter rainbow sprinkles all over the Bibble!
  7. Place in the fridge for 10 minutes.
  8. Remove from the fridge, mix, and serve!

The end! SO yummy!

Xoxo, Nikki

Cat Valentines top in the Gorilla Club **Requested**

The cute lace “Peplum top” Cat wears at the Gorilla Club is actually a dress which has been modified to make the top. Unfortunately, it is sold out. Here is the link to the dress, in case it gets restocked! The original price was $39.00 I’ll try to find a similar soon. If you do buy the dress, keep in mind you will have to alter it! (:
