Amazing Coats You Need To Invest In Now
dreaming of paris
I think this shirt was on the shelf for 12 hours before I purchased it! In the efforts to have a more minimal closet, I try to stay away from graphic tees. However, this Paris Collector Tee was too cute not to add to my closet. By pairing it with my J. Crew skirt and adding a statement necklace, I was able to dress it up for work. There are days I just wanna throw on jeans and a t shirt, but not look like a slob. So this is perfect for those lazy days!
Okay, now I need to start making plans to go to Paris!
dress for fall
September has shown us some crazy weather in Jersey lately. With the hurricanes hitting Florida and Texas, we have been getting the strong winds, rain and chilly cold front the last few weeks. Then the next day it is in the 80s and I have no clue what to wear. Early September, I packed up all of my Lilly Pulitzer, summer tanks and shorts because it was feeling like fall.
I recently purchased this dress because it is a great fall transition dress. I wore it to work last week with my brown cardigan and was able to take off the cardigan when the weather got hot again later that day. This weather has been so bipolar lately I really don’t know how to dress! I plan to wear it throughout the fall and pair it with tights so I can wear it in the winter. Last week I wore my Tory Burch Miller Sandals and plan to wear it with my brown flats later in the fall.
Right now it is on sale with another 50% off, while students and teachers get another 15% off! I have a feeling this dress is going to be worn weekly because it is so easy to throw on and wear it to work.
the perfect wear with anything shoe
Since it is Tuesday Shoeday, I thought I would write a blog post today about my favorite shoe for summer. The T were on my wish list all last summer and I felt like every blogger out there owns a pair. Finally in August, I saved enough money to splurge on a pair. Not only are they cute and go with every outfit, they are also super comfy! I wear them with denim shorts and a t shirt to Target and to work. I am on my feet for 9 hours and my feet don’t hurt at all because they have a bit of padding in them. Yes, they are a bit pricey, but I have had mine for a year now and these are the only sandals I wear now. I have worn them to the beach, pool and even hiked in them never having a problem with them breaking or stretching out. When I say I wear them all the time I really do mean it!
I chose this neutral color so I had more outfit choices to wear them with. Right now I am looking at a black pair or a baby pink shade version. I seriously want one in every single color! On a sizing note, order half a size up.
getting that summer glow with Olay
In the summer you want your skin to look its best. With just a few changes in your skincare routine, you can transform your skin in just one week. Our beauty routines require some extra love because we spend more time out in the sun, sweat more and cover our skin in sunscreen causing a lot of oil buildup.
As soon as the sun comes up, I am throwing on a swimsuit and heading out to the pool or beach. My favorite feeling in the world is feeling the sun on my skin. I love a good tan, but I also know that the sun causes my skin to get dry and it looses its glow. I wanted to share how I keep my skin smooth during the summer.
Day 1
The easiest and cheapest way to get your skin to glow is by exfoliating. I use my Olay Body Wash everyday to wipe off the oil buildup and dead skin. I know that showering daily is obvious to getting clean skin. However, it is also important to know what products you are using to wash your body. Look for products that have lasting moisturizers in the formula so hours post shower your skin will still be soft. Personally, I love the Olay body washes because they smell amazing in the shower and my skin feels amazing for hours after. When you get out of the shower smelling like flowers, you know you are really clean! Olay body washes come in a variety of premium scents to fit your mood. I always grab the daily exfoliating body wash to make sure I get all of the dead skin off of my body to make sure my skin stays soft.
I also use my Olay moisturizer in the morning under my makeup and before bed after I wash my face.
Day 2
Changing your diet does wonders for your skin. Over a year ago, I cut out dairy and salt from my diet and my skin has transformed. Drinking more water and eating more fresh vegetables and fruit can all be a part of a detox that fits your lifestyle. Instead of eating chips for lunch, snack on an apple instead.
Day 3
I try to spend as much time as I can outdoors during the summer months. In addition to changing my diet and exfoliating daily, I also use makeup with SPF. During my lunch breaks, I will sit outside and read my book but I will make sure I am wearing my sunglasses to protect my face from sun damage.
Day 4
Remember to get your beauty sleep! Take advantage of the setting on your iPhone clock that gives you a bedtime reminder. Even with my weird work schedule, I still find time to get at least 8 hours of sleep a night. The only time your skin renews itself is when you sleep. Plus, getting sleep prevents those dark circles under your eyes!
Day 5
One of my favorite feelings in the world is when my body feels like jello after a yoga or Pilates class. The entire time I just wanted to collapse and give up, but that feeling of accomplishing something after is worth the pain. Exercising daily is essential in a daily routine. Find an excuse to get your heartbeat up daily. Then hop in the shower and exfoliate with my Olay Body Wash to make sure the sweat doesn’t clog up your pores.
Day 6
Drink water! Remember to keep a few bottles of water in the fridge so you can grab one and go on the way out of the house. It is no secret that drinking water does wonders for your skin. It’s just everyone’s excuse that they forgot to drink it during the day. I keep a water bottle in my car, at work and a few ready in my fridge so I never have an excuse not to.
Day 7
Exfoliate. Moisturize. SPF. Eat Healthy. Drink Water. Sleep! Take this routine past day 7 and continue throughout the summer.
