Romper Situation



I can live in rompers every day in the summer, especially ones that have such a cool print like this one. I originally wanted to pair it with flat sandals for a comfy look but glad I wore these wedges instead, they just pulled this whole outfit together and felt like I didn't have to try so hard.

Sephora Shopping Trip


 

I went to Sephora this weekend just to browse around and ended up coming out with these goodies. Sometimes it is better to just go into a store not knowing what to buy because you end up finding great items that you didn't even consider buying before.


I have been eyeing this eyeliner in Electric for the longest but never got around to get it. I finally purchased it since it is a fun color to have for summer. I will most probably use it to line my lower lash line to give an ordinary look some pop.


This has to be my favorite primer of all time. It leaves my skin looking even and really makes my makeup stay on longer than with any other primer I have tried out. (this is the smaller size, it also comes in a bigger size but they were out, so I had to get this one)




After trying several different brow pencils and not having any luck, I decided to get this brow powder. I actually received a sample of this last year and have been wanting to get the full size ever since.



I used to use this concealer back when I started using the Bare Minerals line and I have no idea why I stopped. It really covers up any mark or undereye circle. I know some people don't like the idea of powder underneath the eyes, but the consistency of this one does not really show up as a powder and instead blends into your skin leaving a really natural finish.


You can never go wrong with this handcream! It is really moisturizing and inexpensive. I also included this handcream in my last Sephora haul which is a coincidence but yea... I buy this handcream a lot because I love it!!

Summer Bloom

Since summer is officially here, I decided to bring out the quintessential summer dress. I love the breezy feel of this dress and definitely see myself wearing it again this summer.
Summer also means beach time! The boyfriend and I are going to be hitting the beach this weekend which should be fun :-)
Hope you are having a great summer so far!

Mara Hoffman Spring '13



As I was browsing through the spring 13 fashion week pictures for inspiration, I came across the designer Mara Hoffman. I have become obsessed. She pretty much covers everything that I am into; bright colors, bold prints, and a cool and laid back feel. I can't believe I have not payed closer attention to her designs, but I have now become a fan.

Father's Day


I wanted to share my outfit that I wore for Father's Day. I spent the day with my dad, of course, and with the rest of my family. It was a really great day, filled with good food, laughter, and love. I would say I have a really great relationship with my dad, he gives me really great advice and I know I could always count on him.
I hope everyone had a great father's day!!

Glowstick

Hey everyone! I have been in love with button down shirts lately and have stocked up my closet with a quite a selection. The print on the one I am wearing reminds me of the color of glowsticks, it is so much fun and had to get it!

Favorites

I love this time of the year when the weather starts to get warmer and I don't have to hibernate at home because it is so cold outside haha...
I would like to share some of the things that I have been favoring lately. I am the type of person that when I find something I really love I stick with it, mainly with clothes. If I like the fit of a pair of jeans for example, or find a shirt that has a great print I definitely am a repeat offender! The below have been reoccurring things for me in the past few weeks.


I am loving this combo for the summer - Essie Tart Deco and A Cut Above
 
 
I love graphic tees and Aztec prints, so when I saw this shirt at Forever21 I was sold!
 
 

I found this book on Amazon while searching for books about improving yourself and reaching your goals. This book is great so far and it is easy to read, I'm really learning a lot about myself by reading this.

 

I have always loved hip hop music and was the first type of music that I really got into when I was younger. I have since branched out into all types of music, but lately I have been listening to a lot more hip hop than anything. Some of my current favorites that I have been having on repeat are Kendrick Lamar, Macklemore, and Drake.


These two products have been great lately for my skin. The UD BB cream feels like you have nothing on but somehow evens out my skin. The MUFE powder is great on top as it really does the job at keeping my skin matte.

Short Shorts and Medieval Times

Hey guys,
It is finally starting to feel like summer in the east coast! The weather these past couple of days have been great so I decided to pull out the shorts! This is just a casual outfit I wore this Sunday for hanging out with friends and going to Medieval Times. I haven't been to Medieval Times since I was a kid, but it was definitely fun this time around as we were able to watch the show while having some drinks. The best part was that our knight won!! I'm such a big kid... anyways I hope you enjoy my OOTD!
Also, please check out my Instagram for updates of what I am up to :-)
