Before applying any lip color, read about what I suggest you use as a primer here. Trust me, it will help your color last! Alright, starting from the bottom left is MAC Russian Red. It’s a bold, classic blue undertones red. It’s a ...

NEUTRALS FOR SPRING

It’s currently pouring rain, but I’m all giddy for spring. Even though spring is still a little ways away, you can start transitioning your outfit into a spring look. During the winter, I tend to gravitate towards dark colors such as black, gray and navy. Although I love those colors, I wanted to add lighter neutrals into my style. Neutral colors are the perfect addition to any closet. They go with everything! Lately I have been ...

SPORTY CHIC

Another easy sporty chic outfit inspo for you ladies! I would consider this look another uniform for me. It’s easy, comfy and best of all— practical! Sneakers are perfect when you are running errands. A baseball hat is perfect for hiding that overly greasy hair you were just too lazy to wash. It’s also on trend with the sporty/athleisure look. This sweater is very soft and comfy. I also own it in the gray color last seen ...

ONE DRESS, TWO WAYS

dress (old last seen here and here) similar here// sweater// sneakers// hat Isn’t it amazing what accessories can do to an outfit?!

BEAUTY BABBLE:PRIME TIME

This week’s Beauty Babble is all about the steps to take for better looking makeup, as well as long lasting makeup. Before applying makeup it’s important to prep and prime your skin. First step, is to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. It’s not a primer, but equally important. You want your skin to be well hydrated before applying any type of makeup. I recently tried this Kate Somerville Goat Milk Moisturizer as a sample ...

BACKLESS SWEATER

I have a thing for sweaters and knits. I can’t get enough! Although I have way too many, this one is different than any other one I own. The open back gives this sweater a unique look. I kept the rest of my outfit pretty simple. Of course my go-to booties made an appearance. Ladies, these booties are amazing! Hands down my favorite shoe as of late. I wear them all the time! Since my outfit was pretty simple, I added my favorite pair of ...

JOGGER STYLE

This sneaker and jogger trend is amazing! I love it! Joggers are everywhere right now. These ones are a combination of joggers and leggings. Some joggers can be very baggy, but these ones are nice and tight. They have a lot of stretch to them, but do not stretch out — major plus! They come in this charcoal grey and a black. I am wearing a size small to give you an idea on sizing. I do believe they are true to size. The sneaker trend is ...

BEAUTY BABBLE: FAVORITE FACE MASKS

As you can see, I love face masks. I am always trying new ones, but these ones are currently my favorites. Of course I don’t use them all at once or use them everyday. I will use them when I feel like my skin is needing a little extra attention. First we have the three L’OREAL ones. Each one is a clay mask and does something specific for your skin. The black clay‘s purpose is to detox and brighten dull skin. I will use it ...

BEAUTY BABBLE: HAIR MUST-HAVES

Definitely guilty of being a beauty junkie! I am constantly trying new beauty products to see what works for me and what doesn’t. This post is about a few favorite hair must-haves! I really don’t do much with my hair. Most of the time I do messy waves or just put my hair up in a messy bun. I do love doing dutch fishtails and other braided messy styles, but since having Caden, I have the dreaded baby hairs literally all over my ...
