California Dreams


I am back from camping, and all I can say is I sure wish I could be at the beach right now.



And listening to a good summer playlist. Kind of like this suggests.
Oh, and with this to cover up.

Its a funny mix, but doesn't it sound delightful to anyone else?
What summer dreams are you dreaming right now?

A Camping I Will Go!


So it seems I am off to camp for the next few days! We've got lots planned for our little adventure down to the southern part of Utah. Just things like river rafting and bike rides!
I've decided to take a more... sun protected route for my wardrobe this camping trip. Yes, it seems I will be sporting denim leggings, along with long sleeved light weight tunics and tissue tees. It's my complexion of course... fair as can be with a proneness to sunburns.
If camping wouldn't so inevitably cover all your clothes in dirt, sunscreen, and lake water, I would much rather be wearing things like these Jolt Smocked Waist Shorts and this Rubbish Roll Sleeve Plaid Shirt! Accessorized with a Nordstrom Bowed FedoraBetsey Johnson Floral Sunglasses, and snazzy Pink Keds for extra measure! You would be the cutest girl in camp, thats for sure!
Anyways, I hope you all have wonderful summer adventures ahead of you as well! 
See you next week!

Refreshing!


As I've said before, although nautical is definitley a trend I love, there are so many ways to shake up our favorite looks for a refreshing style this summer. I've been searching for ways to reinvent the floral and stripe look that we all know and love, and here are some ideas to give your style a boost!
Try fun color combinations. Hot pink and heather grey stripes are a unique mix of casual and fun! Perfect for hanging out! This Velvet Torch Stripe Smocked Waist Dress is perfect and the vertical and horizontal stripes are super flattering! Yellow and heather is also a great combo, try theseRepot 'Kimball' Flats! 


My favorite way to reinvent the floral and striped nautical prints we all love is on a pair of shoes! The Poetic Licence 'Wonderful Day' Flat is a darling example, and for a more casual shoe try the new TOMS 'Newport' Slip-On for a fun nautical shoe you can wear anywhere!


What is your favorite trend and how do you refresh it!?

To the Beach!




Nothing like a MAC collection to get you excited for summer!
I love the new makeup collection MAC just recently came out with...
Packaging is always key, and I love these seahorse and coral covered bottles! Not to mention the bronze and peach shades can get you ready for the sun!
 I've been wanting to try fun and bright shades for summer, so I love the bright pink, green, and tealTo the Beach Eyeshadow! Especially the teal Shimmermoss color!
Of course, everyone is looking for the perfect tan, and the collection's new bronzing powder,bronzing creme, and bronze body oil can give you just that!
And for those of us with fair complexions that dont quite agree with bronzers, the 'To the Beach' Lustre Drops can still give us the shimmer and highlights that we seek! {as long as we remember our sunscreen!}
Mac's lipglass - always a favorite - has also been included in the collection in three glittering shades! A light pink Easy Lounger, a brighter pink Splashing, and a bronzed Flurry of Fun!
And what would summer be without a fresh coat of polish on your toes and fingers! The 'To the Beach' Nail Lacquer comes in a stunning pink, Scorcher. And a subtle nude, In the Buff.

Have fun expiriementing with your summer look! Make-up can add so much to an outfit! 
Give it a try!

Here Comes The Sun


Well, not really. School is finally out! Summer break was kicked off with a bad cold and rainy weather, so I'm definitely ready for some sun and warm weather!
So here is one of my go-to outfits for this summer break... simple, cool, and comfy! and still super cute!
I love to mix the flirty ruffled floral dresses with something a little tougher to balance, like a boyfriend tee. Better yet, show your Twilight colors with a boyfriend tee from the new line!
Boyfriends Tees for Team Jacob and Team Cullen
Some of my favorite summer accesories that add tons to any summer look are...
-Any pair of Ray-Ban glassesare bound to give a perfectly retro touch to your summer wardrobe!
-Wide brim hats are practical and pretty! This Juicy Couture Woven Hatis the perfect find!
-Last but not least, Crossbody bagsare perfect for summer, and just enough to carry yor necessities... cell phone, sunglasses, lipgloss, and sunblock! This Marc by Marc Jacobs bagis my favorite!
 
Have fun summer shopping!
