Lounging in Style

 Nothing excites me more than a comfy outfit, hair pulled back, a good show, and a cup of coffee in hand. Today was one of those days. When I come home from work I love to lounge on my over sized love seat and unwind from a long day. It makes it even better when I can watch the snowfall outside. Tonight I found myself making notes to myself for this weekend and pondering on my future goals and dreams. Oh, and have mentioned lately how much I love stripes! Happy Tuesday! Almost hump day! yaaaay!

Top: Forever 21

Pants: Relativity (my favorite! So comfy but still can be dressy)

Glittery Flats: Target

Earrings: House of Harlow

Spring Ready

As Iowa got hit with a major snow storm last night, and I'm curled up next to the fire with a warm cup of coffee, I can't help but daydream about brightly colored tulips, bold pastel nails, and a bright chunky necklace paired with a simple Spring dress. This led me to bust out some of my favorite Spring goodies and have a little photo shoot. I also included some pictures that I took last year at Easter.

Nothing excites me more than the cool Spring air, freshly bloomed flowers and being able to enjoy the outdoors come March and April. Hopefully, Winter got it's last storm out of it's system and we are heading closer to warmer weather. I must admit, I'm feeling the winter blues lately and want nothing more than a 60 degree day. Heck, I would be happy with 50 degrees! :) Needless to say, I'm ready to leap in to SPRING!

Beauty Review

Clinique Age Defense BB Cream

Over the past year, I've found that beauty blogs, commercials, ads, and magazines are saturated with the BB cream craze. I was first introduced to them when I worked for a major cosmetic company. Could it really be that this one product had so much to offer? I never dabbled into it because I just kept telling myself it was too good to be true. After months of trying to find the perfect foundation for myself, I decided to take the step and jump on the bandwagon. Well, let's just say I'm glad I did!

 I searched high and low for users reviews on many different BB creams, and decided to give it a try. I'm a huge Clinique fan so it was natural that I try theirs first. This little tube of makeup heaven has been wonderful for me! My skin type is sensitive to most products I try and tends to get oily throughout the day with most foundations. This product has given me zero troubles so far. I have been using it for about a month now and still going strong. I love how it has SPF 30, covers my blemishes, acts as a foundation, and keeps me hydrated throughout the dry winter months. Like I said, it has the right amount of coverage I don't even need to wear a foundation. It's lightweight formula leaves breathing room for my skin and gives me a natural look. Over all, I give it a 4/5. 

Everyone's skin is different, so it may not be the right product for you, but I feel it is worth the try if you are looking for a well developed product and BB cream formula.
