BEAUTY BABBLE// FACE FAVES

I usually don’t stray to far from my usual makeup routine. When you find something you like, you stick to it! However, there are times, when I try something new and then that becomes an important step in my makeup routine. I’ll start with the IT Cosmetics BYE BYE PORES, it’s a pressed powder you apply once you have applied foundation. This stuff blurs fine lines and gives skin that airbrushed look we all want! It’s a ...

CLASSIC LITTLE BLACK DRESS

This past weekend I had the pleasure of attending the “Man of the Year” with my best friend and her amazing family. This is a formal dinner and dance held by the Salesian Boys’ & Girls’ Club in San Francisco. It is also a fund-raising event for the club— there is a silent auction with many different items to bid on. I’ve gone in the past and have always had a fun time! This year it was held at the ...

PEEP TOE BOOTIES AND A DUSTER

As you can see, I’m loving duster cardigans lately! (See this post!) They add just a little bit of drama to an otherwise simple outfit. I found this duster at FOREVER21 for under $40! What a steal right?! I’m all about adding staples to my closet that will be on heavy rotation throughout the year. This duster is also a great transition piece for all seasons. I paired it with a lace camisole I found in stores at H&M ...

CLASSIC ROCKER TEE

I have always had a thing for graphic tees. Lately I’m loving a classic rocker tee paired with some heavy statement jewelry. Rocker tees are such a classic look, but adding some sort of statement piece takes this look to a whole different level. Since it is just a t-shirt, I added a necklace and a blazer with some heels to amp up this look. This statement necklace is from the BAUBLEBAR collection at Target called SUGARFIX. It’s ...

WEEKEND BLUES

Happy Friday! I’m still fixing a few things on the blog, but for the most part got it up and running. Anyways, I just can’t quit this blue suede jacket! A suede jacket is definitely the perfect closet staple that will last you for years. I love this BLANKNYC one because it’s a moto style jacket and gives off that cool girl vibe. It can also be worn many different ways (see this post). For this look, I layered a hoodie ...

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

To dress it down I wore some comfy sneakers, minimal delicate jewelry and a baseball hat. It’s an easy outfit that’s casual, but still looks put together. I’ve ...
