Haul!

I had a full time job this summer I wasn't able to as much as I usually am in the summer! I am really looking forward to shopping Sunday and Monday with my mom, but here are some things that I recently bought in my random trips to NYC or online!

1.  Top Shop Blouse 

It looks very different in person, but this top shop blouse is very on trend-- with both color blocking and it is very sheer.  I think it will be a great piece that will transition into fall very well. 

2. Ella Moss Shirt 

I bought this earlier in the summer.  I absolutely love this top, its light and flowy which I love for the summer months! 

3. Lace Target Dress! 

I usually don't find clothing from target that fit correctly except for bathing suits and cover ups but I found this dress there yesterday and I loved it! A perfect color for the summer! 

4. Armani Exchange Dress 

My mom bought this dress for me online after seeing it one the Today Show! I love it.  I think it would be amazing with a colorful belt! 

5. Dr. Jart BB Cream 

I got a sample of this in my Birch Box in May and I really loved it.  The only thing holding me back from purchasing it right away was that I just bought my Chanel Aqualumiere Foundation.  An email from Birchbox giving me 20% off a purchase quickly made me buy this amazing beauty product. It is a perfect face product to use in the muggy months of summer.

6. Blinc Mascara 

I also learned about his product from my Birchbox. I truely believe it is the most natural mascara with the best staying power! Its a new formula which is called a tubing mascara which creates a layer on your lash  Most mascaras usually come off onto my upper eyelid but this hasn't budged.  Obsessed and in love with it!

Hope you're having a great summer :)

Inspiration

As every sophomore in college knows... it's time to make up our minds about what we want to do with our lives (or what to major in at least) and I have been trying to figure out what I really love.  One of those things is houses.  I love intriguing houses filled with stories, amazing decor and plush furniture.  Of course, I then decided I may want to be a real estate agent (it may be influenced by million dollar listing too...) but my mom convinced me otherwise.  So I am back to square one--trying to mix my love for fashion and beauty with my academics.  I really need to make up my mind soon but now I am thinking of double majoring in Economics and Political Science. Therefore, I do not need to make up my mind just yet ;).  Well that was pointless information, but here are my photos that are inspiring me lately.

As you can probably tell from the pictures above, I love white houses with really bright pops of color.  I cannot wait to get my own apartment one day and decorate it and I mean one that has character... not like a college dorm room. 

All photos found on tumblr.

I'm back!

I took a really long break from this blog.. which i barely wrote on anyway but I decided that I want to come back, so here I am.  Expect more posts now!
