Rompers are a great go to outfit for Summer, they are easy to wear and super comfortable as well.

On trend for Summer, the romper is a must have item!

Light As Air Layering (perfect for summer)

31 May

Layering is not limited to cold winter months. Layering can be done year round including summer time, all without overheating or looking like you belong in the snow. The key is lightweight materials such as sheers, laces and knits. Open front cardigans are great as well as vests and cropped jackets. I have included many pictures to inspire your own summer time layering:) Knock yourself out and remember to have fun with it!

P.S. Don’t forget your Summer scarves!

Minimal Summer Makeup

15 May

I love the look of minimal makeup in the Summer and it’s so easy. I have gotten a lightweight routine down for these warm months. It literally takes 5 minutes and looks polished yet simple.

I’ve narrowed my products down to only 4!!!!! I add a swipe of shimmery eyeshadow or liner if I have extra time, but these 4 products are key to achieve this look.

  • Tinted moisturizer with SPF
  • Mascara
  • Blush(I love corals & peaches for summer)
  • Lip balm/gloss(peach,pink,nude)
