🌸PERFECT SPRING DRESS🌸

To SHOP this dress, type the DRESS into the comment section.

This is the PERFECT Easter dress and spring dress and it was just restocked. NOW is the time to buy spring clothes.

The shoes are the perfect height and go with so many different outfits!

Now, the weather just needs to cooperate so I can wear her outside of the house. 🌸

🍹HAPPY FRIDAY 🍹

To get the recipe, type the word COCKTAIL into the comments below the caption. Boy.

The days are finally getting longer again and it is almost time for cocktails on the deck (or boat).

Just in time for the weekend I am sharing my all-time favorite margarita recipe with you. The key is to always use fresh citrus and nugget ice from my favorite new ice maker I was gifted from @adu_your_appliance_source. Thank you for making all of my cocktail dreams come true! You guys are the best!

➡️ To SHOP these pieces type the word RESORT in the comments of this post.

[#AD] I absolutely loved these 2 pieces from @sailorsailorclothing on my recent girl’s trip.

The fabric is moisture wicking and has UPF 50+ sun defense, which is an added bonus.

These pieces are great for travel as the fabric is pretty much wrinkle free and they are so versatile. They took me from brunch to dinner with just a few accessories.

I love that they are American made and women owned and they have so many prints to choose from. All of my girlfriends loved the pieces as well and placed an order
right then and there.

If you have a trip coming up, I highly recommend a few pieces
from this line. I have linked my favorites for you.

🌸SPRING FORWARD🌸

➡️To SHOP these and other spring outfit ideas, type the word SPRING in the comments below this post.

🌸We are springing forward this weekend and I am BEYOND excited.

🌸The changing of the clocks means that Spring is officially here. To me. at least. I get rid of all my winter clothes and switch over to my spring wardrobe. These outfit ideas with some fresh pops of color make me so happy. I am really a warm-weather girl at heart and I always look and feel my best when the weather corporates. I hope you find some new pieces to add to your wardrobe and let’s spring forward. Whoot!!!

Everything is linked on my blog and there are 2 more warm weather outfit ideas, so head on over.

✨MAKEUP MISTAKES THAT AGE YOU✨

To get the link to this post comment MISTAKES in the comment section 💄

✨This is my most popular blog post ever, and also my most controversial!

✨Obviously you should do what makes you happy and if dark liner and matte lipstick are your thing then you should ROCK IT!

✨However, in my professional opinion and in all of my years as a makeup artist, there are certain tips and tricks that can take years off your face and give you a brighter and more youthful appearance! One thing I would add to the post, is that skin prep is so important before applying makeup!

✨I will share some tips all about that in the next week!

🌸SPRING OUTFIT IDEA🌸

To SHOP this post, type the word SPRING in the comments below 🌸

🌸We spring forward next week and I am beyond excited! It means my favorite time of year is coming! ☀️☀️☀️

🌸I love this sweatshirt so much I have it in 2 colors. So soft and cozy on the inside but the pink color screams spring!

🌸White denim is a spring and summer staple in my closet and these are perfect in every way! Soft and comfy and super flattering.

🌸The tote is an affordable update to your spring wardrobe and also makes a great beach/ pool bag.

🌸These sandals are tired and I need a new pair this year, but I wear them almost daily during the warm months. They are worth every penny.
