It's Thursday again! I'm so ready for the weekend and I'm sure you guys are as well. I've have some exciting posts coming soon; one I'm super excited about is the fashion show I'm participating in this Saturday for Goodwill. Yes, this is wwwwaaaaayyyy out of my comfort zone, but I think it's going to be so much fun to meet others who enjoy hunting through the Goodwill racks to find that next amazing thing to add to their closet, as much as I do. I'll be sure to recap the event within the next few weeks.

Anyway, I wanted to share some of my fav beauty items that I've been using none stop for the last few months. My by far favorite is the Josie Maran Vibrancy foundation; at first I didn't think I was going to like it because I've always had oily skin, but since giving birth to Staley in Feb. my skin has turned more into dry to combo. So this foundation is a miracle worker for me!!! It completely transforms my skin into this glowy, healthy base that lasts the entire work day. It's almost always sold out on Sephora's website, so I linked a more affordable option down below that also gives me the same glorious results.

And I quickly want to shout out ELF for all the amazing products they've been coming out with recently. I've always loved the ELF translucent powder and I still use it daily, but the new concealer sticks are AMAZBALLS! I used the dark shade as a contour/bronzer and it is so much better than any high end cream contour product I've used in the past and the best part is its only $4! :)

I've link all my favorites down below, don't forget to snag a couple and let me know what you think!

 

*For those that noticed, yes I know I spelled obsessed wrong in my collage, but after I noticed it I was already 2 hrs. in and wasn't starting over!

Thrifted Thursday; White and Black

About two weeks ago, while quickly thumbing through racks at Goodwill on my lunch break, I came across about 5 tops grouped together;  someone had to have donated them especially for me! In the bunch, was this darling white, peter pan collared top; I instantly fell in love. It's definitely something I wouldn't normally pick for myself, but the cute collar and white checkered pattern really spoke to me. After all, that's what Goodwill is all about for me, trying out new things I would have never  bought for myself!

 

Outfit Details:

Top (GW $4)

Shorts (Bargain Hunt $3)

Flats (Payless $20)

Purse (Kate Spade $198)

Easy Breezy

Every weekend, just like most families, we're constantly on the go so, when it comes to my outfits, I just want to throw something on thats comfy, doesn't take much thought, but still looks put together. I've grabbed for these shorts almost every weekend, thank goodness I have them in several different colors! They're so comfortable and go with just about everything in my closet, especially this popover paisley top from J.Crew; its very light weight and breezy, perfect for the warmer weather we've been having. I paired it with my favorite bag and flip flops to top off the look. BTW, I've had this bag for over 10 years! It was my very first Coach bag my parents bought me. 

Have a great week!

Keeping it Causal

As hot as the weather has been lately, Im still a cold natured gal. So whenever we go out I have to grab a cardigan. This by far is my favorite cardigan in my closet; I love everything about it, the color, fit and material. Its that perfect throw on and "get the crap outta the house" cardigan. 

This color combo is also one of my favorites, its perfect for summer. 

Please excuse the craziness that is my hair; Nathan wanted to walk, what felt like miles and between the wind, heat and me sweating like a man, I lost what style I had to my hair. 

Outfit Details

Cardigan (Ralph Lauren $25)

Striped Tank (Bargin Hunt $3)

Shorts (J.Crew $20)

Vintage Earrings (Goodwill $2)

Vintage Dooney & Burke (Goodwill $4)

Keds ($45)

Kisses,

To my sweet Staley

To my sweet Staley,

For the last six months I've fed you, bathed you, held you close, wiped away your tears and watched you grow incredibly too fast. You've been the center of my world everyday for the last 6 months. Time has passed by incredibly too fast; it seems just like yesterday that I held you for the first at the hospital to today, where now you're laughing, sitting up and jabbering on like your carrying on a conversation (you're definitely my child!)  Every time you smile, laugh or reach out for me it just melts my heart; if only I can see the world through your beautiful, blue eyes and see everything brand new. You've taught me what unconditional love means and how everything else just doesn't measure up as it used to.

After 9 long months and hours of tough labor, you finally entered the world and made me mom; with no makeup, hair all messy, my skin splotchy and red I didn't care what I looked like. To me, I was the most beautiful here, the moment you made me a mom.

You, by far are my greatest accomplishment in life.

I'll love you forever,

Mom

This game has brought us back to our childhood and we couldn't help, but join in on the fun.

This was the perfect outfit for Pokémon hunting  :)

 

Oh and yes, I dyed a portion of my hair purple. Living on the edge these days and wanted to try out something so out of normal style. I'm actually loving it!
