Today is Selena’s Birthday!

This weekend my daughter and I watched the Selena movie.
It’s fantastic to see the effect that her legacy still has on kids these days.

We’ve watched her movie before and also listen to her songs all the time.
For some reason, my daughter was wholly invested in her movie this time, and she cried at the end.

All weekend she kept saying, why did Selena die.
Questions we still ask til this day.

To honor her on her birthday, I wanted to create a look similar to her iconic looks.

I still wanted to maintain this look on my own.
Instead of completely mocking one of her iconic looks, I decided to use my signature bun.

I decided to go with my signature bun and add that little piece of hair in the front that she used to use with her up to do’s hairstyles.

For the makeup, I did the iconic red lip.
I wanted to keep this look soft, so I used minimal makeup.
I mainly used more blush, like Selena used to.

Here’s the look I came up with to honor the QUEEN!
Besides, her birthday today is also considered Selena’s day, which was declared on April 12, 1995!
