Happy Sunday! Just wanted to pop in and tell you one of our favorite retailers, LOFT, is having a surprise sale- ALL half off + free shipping, so we wanted to share our favorites with you all. They have great pieces for fall, especially pieces for work!
One of our favorite retailers, Shopbop is offering up to 25% off your ENTIRE order with code STOCKUP18. It is a great time to stock up on fall staples like the pieces we shared above!
Some pieces we want to highlight:
These Stuart Weitzman HiLine boots are pretty pricey, but are AMAZINGGG. We got a pair and wish we had gotten them before they went on sale! They are 25% off right now and you will wear these for years. We got a size 7.
These Levis ripped jeans are a pair we got years ago and still wear so often! We got a size 24 in them, but they run small!
Y’all know alllll about these Tory Burch Miller sandals, and we love them. We literally wear ours every single day, haha. We have this leopard color in a size 7.
Ever since we started not feeling well about two years ago (more in this post and this post), we have been trying to make an effort to switch over some of our beauty products to more natural ones. We had honestly never thought about what we are putting on our body (just what was actually going in it). When you really start doing some digging, you realize there are a lot of products that are not as “safe”, and we have really become our own advocates when it comes to our health because you’re the only person who can really vouch for yourself!
One of our friends told us about a website called ewg.com, where you can look up any product and how safe it is! We didn’t/haven’t switch everything over just yet– mainly our deodorant, makeup, skincare, body lotion, body wash, and sunscreen. We are not perfect with it, and will probably never be, but it is a start!
We found out about a company called Beautycounter, and were honestly pretty skeptical just because we had seen it on social media and hadn’t tried it, but we decided to give it a shot and fell in LOVE! First off, we love what they stand for.
Most of the makeup we had been using (some, not all) had some ingredients that we didn’t want to be putting on our skin daily. Beautycounter has something called the The Never List™, which is made up of more than 1,50o questionable or harmful chemicals they will never use in their products. When we started our health journey, we read up on how Europe and other countries have wayyyyy more restrictions when it comes to products used in personal care products, which is crazy!
We wanted to share some of our favorite products we have tried so far, and some we are planning on ordering soon and will keep you all posted on those!
Cleansing Balm: leaves your skin super soft. A little goes a long way, so it lasts you months. You can use it for SO many things: cleanser, mask, and makeup remover! Hands down, our favorite product. Oh, and it’s great for any skin type!
Resurfacing Peel: makes your skin feel so soft and brighter! We have been using it for a few weeks and love the results.
Flawless In Five Kit: this was the first thing we ordered to test some of their stuff out and fell in love! It is a great starter kit if you want to see how you like them.
Lip Gloss: love the “peony” and “bare shimmer” colors
Countermatch Line: We have tried the facial lotion and LOVE how lightweight it feels, and the rest of the line is next on our list to try!
Dew Skin Moisturizing Coverage: We love this one for lighter makeup days. It has just enough coverage and leaves your skin looking dewy and fresh. It also has SPF20 in it, so it is great to apply in the mornings before heading out!
Countersun Mineral Sunscreen: This one is major because it is formulated with non-nano zinc oxide and antioxidant-rich California Poppy. This one is a spray so it is super easy to apply! It goes on white for better application, but dries quickly! It also comes in a travel size.
ALSO!! We wanted to talk about a special perk that we just signed up for called Band Of Beauty.
It is basically an Amazon Prime for Beautycounter and you get a TON of free perks and it is only $29 (one-time-fee)!
free shipping on orders over $100
15% credit to use on your next purchase with every order you place
Happy Tuesday! We hope you all are having a great week so far. It is officially fall, so we are excited to share this look with you all that is perfect to transition into cooler temps. What is so great about this outfit is that you can take off the wrap/shawl and just rock a basic tee with jeans!We know SO many of you all loved this striped cocoon wrap, and unfortunately it did sell out as of now, but we will keep checking and keep you posted if we find it again! We did find this one and this one that are striped and a similar concept.We paired this striped wrap with a basic white tee and some ripped jeans (wearing size 25).We actually got these booties last year, and wore them so much that we decided to get them again! They are the perfect heel height and look great with dresses, jeans, and leggings. We got a size 6.5 for reference. This bag is a great neutral and can be worn on your shoulder with the shorter or longer strap.And, now we wanted to share some of our tips on how to wear stripes:
Opt for a thinner stripe for a more flattering look (or a mix of thick and thin stripes)
If you’re going for stripes on the bottom for pants, opt for vertical
Mix and match stripes (vertical with horizontal, thicknesses, etc.)
We don’t know about you all, but we are so excited for fall! We love summer, but there is something about fall that is so fun and warming! We wanted to share some fun fall decor for you all, in case you are looking around for some! We also have a good Pumpkin Spice Latte recipe here!
Happy Monday! Hope you all had the best weekend. We just got back from Mexico from the most incredible trip with some amazing influencers. We are feeling so inspired, and will be planning more fun content to share with you all in the next couple of months, so stay tuned! We have gotten a few requests to share an easy day-to-night look for you all that would even make a great date night outfit! We actually got most of this outfit during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, so we can’t wait to show you how you can transform this look! This cami is one that we have in several colors (wearing size s) and it is just too good to pass up! You can wear it with jeans, or dress it up with a pencil skirt or some black jeans! We paired the cami with one of our go-to cardigans (wearing xxs) and some dark jeans (wearing size 24) for an easy daytime look. You could wear some slip on sneakers like these or mules like these.To take this look into evening, or for a comfortable, but put-together date night look, we styled our FAVORITE dressy sandals with it. We honestly hadn’t really thought of styling these sandals with jeans, but after one of us wore them to a wedding, and loved how they looked and felt, we thought, “why not?” We ended up loving how they looked with some dark denim, or maybe some light wash ripped denim! BTW- they fit true-to-size!This bag is a great every day one because it goes with pretty much everything AND it holds a lot. Also, you can wear it on your arm, shoulder, or cross-body!This entire day-to-night look is from Nordstrom. It is our favorite place to grab any kind of item for fall, and with their in-store-pickup, online shopping is a no brainer. It couldn’t be easier! They also have curbside pick-up, which is even better because you don’t even have to get out of your car. We used it most recently to pick up an order when we were in our pjs, haha!
