 Outfit Details:
top: old
shorts: Loft
shoes: Talbots
bracelets: vintage and from Spain
necklace: from a small boutique in New York
lipstick: NARS Jungle Red

I have been trying so hard lately to not wear all black outfits it I don't need to. So for this outfit, yes I have a black shirt on but to change it up I put these Loft shorts on to add that fiery pop of color to the look. To make it less basic I added the eclectic jewelry touches to add some pizzazz.

Is it hard for you to reach for the color in your closet full of black clothing?

When wanting to wear a dress and heels, but still wanting it to look chic, yet casual.... All you need to do it pair neutral pieces together to get a complete casual chic look for a day of meetings and running errands. Also you can add fun accessories to show some flair!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend! Enjoy the weather!!

Double Fishtail

Beauty blogger lipstick and chiffon

I recently had a bridal inquiry for hair and makeup and the style she was thinking of was a chic boho double fishtail braid style. When I first saw the inspiration photo she sent me, I was a little apprehensive because yes I know how to do a fishtail braid, but this was definitely not a style my brides had asked for before. So I told her I would practice it and see how it looked and get back to her. 

Well this was on my second try!! I think it turned out pretty well! It is definitely a messy free-flowing style and I loved it. For those of you with less layers in your hair , the messiness will be toned down. Also second day hair with some dry shampoo helps with giving you some texture and volume for the style. And I used little clear plastic ties to secure the hair.

 I really appreciate this bride -to-be for getting me to try something new! I can't wait to try this on her at her trial coming up this next weekend!! 

What style have you been wanting to try, but are too afraid to?

Lake Time

















Outfit Details:

dress: Piperlime (similar)
necklace: vintage
bracelets: Latitudes Fair Trade and vintage


I absolutely love this maxi dress and have worn it quite a but this summer, either as a work outfit or just a casual day-wear piece or going out to dinner. I was lucky enough to snag it before Piperlime went away (still super sad about it btw) and it was such a great deal!

This kind of outfit is perfect for chillin' on the dock and just relaxing and taking in the summertime vibe.
