I’ve been loving this edgy twist to the blazer. A sleeveless blazer is such an easy way to have fun with summer layering to add extra color or texture to any look. How awesome is blaze number 1? So unique!
6 Gorgeous Zip Wallets
I’ve loved having a more simplified system, using nothing more than the J.Crew Magic Wallet, but really it’s getting old. Truthfully, I miss having a larger wallet that I can toss receipts and change into and be on my way. That’s the real value of a zip wallet, if you ask me—the ability to toss, zip and go. Here’s a few of my favorites.
ONE Dress, TWO Ways
Nothing beats a summer sundress that can easily be styled for work or play. Find one you really love and it can force you to stretch your creativity just so that you can wear it every day! I recently spotted this J.crew Camille dress and thought it was so perfect for creating several different, versatile looks. And I didn’t even brush the surface with this one! The layering options are endless when you consider you can have fun layering both over and under this little number. Hope You had am amazing weekend! XO!
5 Beach Bags For Your Summer Vaycay
Guys(!!!!!!!), next weekend is Memorial Day weekend!!! Who’s beach ready? I’ve been beach ready for weeks, as you know. And even though I *technically* just returned from the beach, I can’t wait to head to the Eastern Shore for Memorial Day weekend, as we do every year. I can already smell the not-so-fresh ‘Ocean Sh*tty’ and Dewey Beach air. Smells like home. Happy Friday!
Perfectly Neutral bareMinerals Regimen
Working with bareMinerals to run my first half marathon was seriously such a dream. They could not have been more amazing and, hello!, I got to play with makeup while checking something off my bucket list!!!
I’ve been having a blast testing several of their newer products, but in the last few weeks I’ve been paying close attention to the pieces I reach for most frequently so that I could give you an accurate rundown of my daily makeup regimen. As you can see, I tend to keep it pretty neutral. I rarely play with eyeshadows and I’m still too chicken to get crazy with lip color (no you don’t understand, I look ridiculous with lipstick on), so this regimen is perfect for creating an easy, everyday look. And a couple people asked about Well-Rested when I instagrammed it and, yes, I love it!!! It just brightens everything around the eye—total life-saver. As for the cheek color, I like to brush just a little bit of The Confession in the contours of the cheek, then dust just a touch of Aphrodisiac closer to the cheekbone; it creates a bit of a boho, naturally sun-kissed look.
Color Obsession: Blushy Hues
How darling are all the blushy pink and peach hues we’ve been seeing? I love them! They present such a dainty touch and, let’s be honest, the warmth of these spring colors is a nice option for these slightly chilly but sunny spring days, don’t you think? Hope you have an amazing Tuesday!
How to Pick the Perfect Sunglasses For Your Face
Bravo, Nordstrom. This chart could not be more clutch! I think I’ve been denying my summer eyewear destiny — turns out I love shapes that just are not right for my face. As I mentioned in my round-up of favorite shades for the season, I love the mod-inspired round and square frames out this season (like these in black!), but since the shape of my face is more in the triangle/oval arena, it’s just not meant to be. But, luckily there are so many more that are right for my face that I’m loving! Here’s some of my personal favorite sunglasses from Nordstrom, organized by which ones are best for the shape of your face. VOILA!
