Every fashionista could use a shift dress in her life, and with the fall season quickly approaching, there is no better garment out there to stock up on. Pair a shift with your favorite sleeveless outerwear and a pair of fringe booties, or dress it up with pumps for a night on the town. Leave it to Target to carry an adorable printed shift dress for less than $30! Brought to you by xhilaration™, this sleeveless number features a multicolored geometric pattern, against a black background. A flattering cut for daytime or evening wear, and the keyhole back offers a sweet feminine touch. On this trendy Tuesday, I styled this piece for happy hour. Pulling one prominent color, yellow, from the busy pattern, I made it pop even more by accessorizing with similar hues. Finally, for a nice contrast, I polished off the look with my favorite orange clutch by Urban Expressions. Will you be shifting up your fall attire with this hot commodity?! A note about the shoes…yellow pumps are more versatile than you’d ever imagine. Better yet, this exact style is currently on sale for $39! Get ’em while you can, from DSW Designer Shoe […]
“Simple is beautiful.” This is certainly the case when it comes to this green bodycon midi dress! While I often find myself collecting statement pieces, it is just as important to add simple garments to your wardrobe. A reliable knit dress can go a long way, especially when it is a solid color like so. Layer up with a longline vest or a sleeveless sweater, or hang a scarf around your neck and throw on your favorite hat. Think of it as a blank canvas – the simpler the dress, the easier it is to accessorize with. Still swooning over my Southwestern printed shooties, I figured they would add just enough of a funk element to this otherwise plain ensemble. Between the shoes, a multicolored clutch, and a rhinestone necklace, I think it did just the trick! Purchase this dress for $15.90 and use it as a your foundation to layer as we slowly but surely transition into fall apparel.

8:30 am: Arrive at Holmes Bakehouse. Prepare to wait in line approximately 30 minutes for a cruffin. That’s right, a decadent croissant muffin stuffed with pudding confection is called a “cruffin.” It’s worth the wait and if you’re lucky, it’ll be a salted caramel day. They sell out by 9:15 – be punctual. 9:30 am: Head North on foot or Uber towards the bay to pick up a bike from “New Holiday Adventure Sale & Rentals.” It’s a dry cleaner with bike rentals at a rock bottom price. Nothing fancy here but you won’t find a better deal. Put a dent in your sugar high with a bike ride over the Golden Gate Bridge! Morning Alternative: Pick up a coffee and off to prison you go! Alcatraz aka “The Rock,” known for housing famed criminals such as Al Capone and the “Bird Man,” is one of the most traveled National Parks in America. Take the audio tour as you walk through jail cells and spooky courtyards. Buy your tickets early and you won’t regret it. 12:00 pm: Arrive in Sausalito totally rejuvenated. Leave your bike with valet – it’s worth the five bucks and hit […]
After several months of blogging and showcasing my favorite looks, I have been asked on more than one occasion about my makeup routine. Although I have already alluded to specific products in passing, I figured there was no better time than today to go in depth about my favorite makeup products. Here it goes! 1. Everyone has a “problem area” when it comes to their skin and face. Mine is undoubtedly under-eye dark circles. Unfortunately these things haunt those with an olive complexion…my number one defense against ’em is DermaBlend’s Cover Cream in Yellow Beige. Using Mac’s 190 Foundation Brush, I apply an upside down triangle underneath my eyes for full coverage. This stuff is truly a miracle worker! 2. bareMinerals Original Foundation in “Medium Tan” owns me – I do not hit the streets without it. Great for moderate coverage all while protecting your skin from dangerous UV rays thanks to the SPF 15 component. 3. Who would have thought that your eyebrows could affect your entire look?! Well, they sure can and the Brow Wiz from Anastasia Beverly Hills will brighten your face – giving you an effortlessly primped appearance. This hot commodity is a […]
