Navy Ruffles and Sweet Curls

Hey there lovelies! Happy Friday! My life has forever changed for the better since I jumped on the 'highlight' bandwagon. Call me obsessed shall we! I'm in love with how my skin looks with highlighter on. I'm currently using the one by Tarte in Exposed and now I am super excited to try more. What I love about this time of year is that Sephora is releasing some of the holiday value packs and its a great opportunity to try something new (this isn't sponsored btw). I'm the kind of person who doesn't really like spending money on products I don't love, so this is an affordable way to test out products you've been eyeing. I also love this value pack for trying a Tarte highlight.

The world of fashion and beauty continues to intrigue me and there are new and exciting new discoveries to be found.

Lets Play with Different Structures - Flare and Asymmetrics

Hello lovlies! Now that the weather is getting colder, I'm super excited add layers and fun structures to my outfits. My style has changed through out the years, but I've always had an interest in angular and asymetrical pieces. Recently, I have focused much of my attention to higher quality fabrics, but affordable finds that are unique. My logic when buying items is how they would go with everything else that I own and how it is different. 

The key proponent when playing with different structures is styling it among basics. Let the asymmetric hem lines and angular shoulders do all the talking.

How to Rock a Monochromatic Look

Hey lovelies! One of my most favourite pairings is an all black outfit with a pop of red. It's simple, sleek and of course very chic. It's my go-to for days I want to look put together, and the days I can't seem to find anything to wear. I could wear black everyday if I could. Ha!

I lived in this sweater all of winter and fall and I'm super excited to be wearing it agian. My tip for pulling off a monochromatic look is adding small pops of colour (a fun lip or a fun nail colour), and playing with different structures and textures.

Girl On the Go - Black Fringe and Lizard Print

Hey lovelies! You know those days when you pick the perfect outfit, you have good hair, and your eyeliner went on perfectly? Yep, Those days are what I live for. The days where my eyeliner messes up (most days), I still like to fill my day with little touches of joy - like picking up some fresh flowers, getting lattes, and or pick up some macarons. You can make your own day special buy picking out the cutest outfit for yourself or wearing a luxe lipstick. It is the little things in life that make us really appreciate how fortunate we are.
