I’ve been loving my berets lately–it’s quick & low maintenance but looks like you put a lot more effort into it! Here is a quick tutorial on how I rock my beret.

Feeling Nostalgic
“It’s beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures
your heart.” -Unknown
Today I felt like wearing a dress. There is something about a dress,
especially in the summer time, it makes you feel extra feminine &
glamorous. I have quite a few summer dresses in my wardrobe but this
one makes me feel a bit vintage with the way that it’s cut. In fact, I’d say this dress makes me feel somewhat nostalgic.
Today I did my hair a bit different–an oversized bun with a middle part. It
felt super elegant & sleek–I’m in love.
Today’s makeup:
I tried something new with my Too Faced New Smokey Eye Palette. I used
all the colors in the day look. I may do a tutorial on it because I
was very happy with the way it came out.

Outfit, Makeup & Hair of the Day
Spring is just a mere 7 days away! Today I decided to bust out of the new short sleeved cardie’s from my Spring wardrobe. It’s comfortable, casual & yet–you can glam it up at the same time. What really made me fall in love with this cardie were the princess puffed sleeves. I pair it with a cream colored lacy cami, jeans & tan knee high boots. I kept the jewelry somewhat simple. I adore the emerald cut faux sapphire lever back earrings! I only wish I had a pair in white.
For hair, I’ve been obsessed with the side swept updo! It’s chic and takes NO time at all–it’s very simple to do! Gotta love looks that are simplistic and glam at the same time. I threw in a little golden colored embellished barrette–to give it that “little something”.
For makeup, I kept the eyes a golden walnut color–smokey, of course! I can’t tell you how much I’ve been diggin’ loose pearl eye shadow from NYX and pigments in general. I found MAC’s Jardin Aires pigment paired nicely with NYX’s Walnut Pearl. I finished it off with a little of NARS Mekong. I kept the lips very soft & simple-MAC’s Underage lipglass & a little of Bonne Bell’s Sugar Crystals to soften out that opaqueness in the lipglass.
Overall-I’d say it was a fab makeup, outfit & hair day! We took a drive to a place we’d never been before and LOOK! It’s a Waffle House! I thought they only had these down South?! And look at the horse & buggy!!! Because that’s something you see everyday!
