    Hi Loves!

    I am super excited to bring you the first of my looks from the cutest online retailer ZAFUL . I am crazy about summer style and even though it might be cooling off already in some states, not at all here in Phoenix. It is still way over 100 degrees. Awhile back, I chose my summer wishlist see post here, this is my LATEST take on the off the shoulder and crop top trend!

     

    I was super excited to get this skirt in the mail. It is the perfect summer print and can be worn to dress up a bit, which is how I styled it, or even as a swim suit cover up!

     

     

    I knew these cute chandelier earrings in my latest box from L.V. Kiki would be perfect with this fun flirty look!

     

    The lace crop top is so darling on. This just fuels my summer long obsession with crop tops this year lol. Btw the next few upcoming posts may have a few more crops tops coming up!!

     

     

    I had been looking for a black wedge for awhile now. I was super excited to find these (they come in other colors too). I’ll link them below!

     

    Skirt: ZAFUL; More high waisted skirts: HERE!!!

    Crop Top: ZAFUL

    Sandals: Macy’s –on sale!!

    Necklace: Kendra Scott

    If you haven’t checked out ZAFUL go do it now! Lol. Their clothes are the cutest and the prices are just right too. A win win!

    Ellie Activewear August Box

    Hey Babes!

    I have the best news about Ellie Activewear . I just found out that they are now offering a second box for subscribers. The original box includes a 3 piece outfit (a bra, a top and a legging) and 2 workout items (total 5 items), such as the ab roller wheel that I got in my last box (check out that post HERE ). Now you can get the outfit only for $39.95. This is such a good deal. Now if you want the original box you can still get it for $49.95.

    I love the quality of the activewear chosen for each month’s box. The sports bra comes with removable padding and the orange/red details are so cute!

    I love how the materials allow you the stretch and move easily.

    The tank top is very lightweight and has an airy feel about it.

    Trying to keep up my Barre3 balancing pose. It only lasted for a second because I fell over right after haha!

    The legging details are cute and breathable. The mesh panels help air to circulate during your workout.

    Ellie includes the most darling rose gold gym backpack. I love that you can pack you outfit and go straight to workout in this bag!

    Hey Babes!

    I recently had a fun escape to Cottonwood, AZ. Its a great town with a retro main street filled with cute shops and great restaurants, but best of all wine tasting rooms!

    I wanted to be comfortable but cute. So I chose my new demin shorts with this pretty eyelet top!

    The jewlery was sent to me by Charming Charlie and I loved all the picks. The mint green stud earrings and the silver and gold bangels are so versatile. I love the oversize pink agate stone! This is a necklace I would not have chosen myself , but I LOVE the style now.

    The dainty bangles are so darling, and they have printed sayings on him ” live what you love”.

    The mint green stone post earrings are so pretty and can be styled with several outfits.

    The straw festival hat is perfect for a daytrip or a country concert!

    Cottonwood’s main street is lined with vintage shops. I found the sweetest gold clutch purse–very retro. Cottonwood has the best small town feel.

    The back detail on this eyelet top is my favorite part. ( I may have accidentally washed it with my new jeans and it is currently ruined (insert crying)).

    Top: Shein (under $20!)

    Necklace: Charming Charlie

    Shoes: Steve Madden

    Denim Shorts: Rue 21

    Hat: Scala Hat

    Bag: sold out; Similar

    Hi Lovelies

    I wanted to tell you about a new product that I just received. Its a makeup applicator called Sonicblend. Now this is not just any electronic brush, this has such a superior quality of application! The Sonicblend to begin with has antimicrobial properties so the brush head stays cleaner longer. Now for the application part, the Sonicblend rotates faster than any other makeup brush at up to 400 micro-movements per second. This results in a natural airbrushed look every time!

     

    First, choose your liquid foundation to start. You’ll just need a small dab really. I use the back of my hand, but there are makeup palettes or even a small ceramic dish.

    The brush speed is programmed for the easiest of applications. It easily charges for use with the USB cord that it included. This brush stays charged for many uses, not just the one time.

    The brush can be used to apply various cream products, such as highlighter, bronzers or a cream blush tint. The brush is so advance that it uses:

    • “Intuitive patent based technology that uses sonic movements to prevent clumping by dispersing individual granules of makeup into wrinkles, enlarged pores & fine lines for a 3D flawless makeup application”–Sonicblend

    The cream blush seemed better to try than a powder version for better refined control. The Sonicblend does apply powder makeup too.

    See how natural it goes on!

    This is the finished application up close!

    I really love the natural looking coverage you get with the Sonicblend beauty brush. I am not a beauty blogger at all. I am actually quite inept at makeup overall haha. I love this brush which helps me make the process fool-proof! I’ll link the brush below.

  • Summer Essentials Mini Post

    Summer Essentials Mini Post

    Hi Loves!

    Its already August! I can’t believe how fast this summer is going by. I wanted to share with all you a few of my summer favorites that I loving right now. Get ready and scroll on down!

    Sunglasses: Zero UV These are such a cool iced pink color with a subtle cat eye. This company has really cute styles and most are around $10. Yup, that’s right!!!

    Cranberry Sugar Body Scrub: Lather This sugar scrub has pieces of little cranberries in it! Ok so this makes me super happy haha. It leaves your skin soft and smooth and it isn’t overly oily as some body scrubs can be (won’t name which company –it’s one everybody likes, but me).

    True Lemon Natural Flavor Packets: True Lemon has many flavors such as lime, orange, wild berry lemonade, and peach lemonade. I am the worst at drinking water and these all natural flavor packets really help my daily intake. No scary chemical fake sugar wannabes here.

    Cute flamingo water bottle: Need I say more. Its a flamingo, it has an M, its super cute you can find it at Dawlens

    Magazines: I have always had a love of magazines, especially for reading while lounging on my pool float. This 435 Magazine is all about my hometown of Kansas City and the fun new happening things going on there. It makes me miss home, but I love keeping up on how hip KC has become.

    Lip Tints & Sunscreen: Babo Botanicals has such great sun protectant products. I love these Lip Tints with SPF 15 and a hint of color. The facial sunscreen is formulated for sensitive skin and SPF 40 for daily wear. Here in Phoenix the sun is why we all live here, but no one wants melanoma or any kind of skin damage. Hence, cover up your lips too–the most delicate skin on your face after your eyelids!!

    Gorgeous Gold Tube Cream Blusher: Box of Style This Beauty Counter product is a two in one product for cheeks and lips. This product hydrates and goes on smoothly. It came in my subscription box for the summer from Rachel Zoe. Use this code to get your summer box: PRETTYSSU10

    Let me know in the comments below one of your favorite product for the summer!

    Euro Chic Polka Dots

    Hi Loves,

    I recently connected with the lovely Harpreet Maan . She is a fellow fashion blogger who has been busily creating her first collection. I first saw her designs in person a few months ago and I fell in LOVE!

    This stunning two piece outfit is my favorite thing that I have featured in a long time! I like a wide leg pant so much because they make you look taller and leaner! This palazzo pant leg really stands out with the fabric being so lightweight.

    The details on the top are so pretty with the satin trim, the front bow and the cut-out!

    I wanted to keep the jewelry equally as chic and elegant, so I chose a simple thin bangle, a small pendent necklace along with my favorite modern edge circle earrings.

    I had so much fun shooting this outfit. It made me wish I was on a yacht in the Mediterranean!

    We were welcomed this day at L’Auberege in Sedona. It was a beautiful overcast day, which was a nice change from too much sun here in Phoenix.

    I ordered up some Rosé and promptly started planning how to move into the resort forever haha!

    The restaurant is located on the banks of the creek itself and it was so peaceful and beautiful.

    Lunch was delicious and so perfect. They even had Gluten Free bread so I was in heaven!!

    Cheers babes! I loved strutting around L’Auberge in this beautiful creation. Go on over and check out Harpreet’s designs, as she is now making custom apparel. Her fabrics are being imported from India and you never have to worry about showing up to an event and living the dreaded “someone else is wearing your dress” (yes it happened to me at the Red Dress event…sigh).

    Designer: Harpreet Maan

    Necklace: Norstrom (now on sale!)

     Earrings: Adornmonde–Ivo earrings

    Hat: Shein

    Hey Loves

    I just tried a great new product for you skin. I love getting the chance to try a product and report back to you what I think. This is about Simplicity Skincare.

    I was intrigued by the bottle design, which has two chambers. One side for the moisturizer and the other for hyaluronic acid. This combination creates a balance for your skin with the accepting of the moisture and the actual adding of moisture.

    I’ve been using the superior serum for about a week now and I like how my skin feels smoother and not greasy at all. The flakiness that I have by living in the desert has drastically improved. I’m truly loving this product!

    Now the best news ever! You too can try out Simplicity Skincare. They are hosting a giveaway for my readers, which you can enter on the link below!

    Ellie Activewear Subscription Box

    Hey Dolls!

    So I just received my first Ellie Activewear box and I have to say right away I’m super impressed.  I knew that I would be getting a workout outfit, but didn’t realize there would be more surprises in the box!

    Each box contains a complete cute workout outfit.  This July box is still available! This box also has an Ab workout wheel and a Bally’s cooling towel. The fit and quality is always a concern with my workout clothes. I love these pieces! The sports bra has the cutest cut outs and the fit is very soft. I got a size small.

    It is really comfortable, and the sports bra is described as medium support. My workouts are usually not that intense, so for me this is perfect. If you tend to workout out more hard-core you might need different support (or if your boobs are bigger too haha). I love the contrasting piping to go with the pants.

    I don’t know why, but i’ve never bought workout pants with color blocking and now I’m obsessed. I was missing out lol. These pants I got in a size medium. I was again worried I might need a bigger size, but these are perfect.

    The tank top is just the cutest with the mesh back and a bright tangerine color. I like that the fit was a bit oversized, so that you know this one that I’m wearing is a size small.

    I love the matching hair ties by Zobha, but I can’t use them, except for decor over my real hair ties lol. They don’t have a lot of stretch so they can’t hold up my super thick hair. I can use them for a cute wrist accessory haha!

    So the important stuff. this is a monthly subscription box. You get all the items shown above for $49.95. Such much less than one pair of leggings at Lululemon! And you get the whole outfit with extra workout gear or surprises. I mean really this is such a good deal. Click on the link below!

    I recently starting shooting with Jacqueline and have our next shoot already set up for this weekend. can you say road trip!?! Its going to be so fun!

    I am loving the trend from yellow gold to more rose gold. I paired my new rose gold aviators with the pink flowers in this dress.

    My jewelry is a mixture of metals, but mostly rose gold tones with these long layering necklaces.

    Oh my gosh I have been longing for gray shoes for so long and the fact that I found the perfect open toed bootie was amazing!

    I’m super excited for what is yet to come on my blog. With my new branding and logo, I feel these good changes will make a real difference to my overall look!
