Coat | Turtleneck | Jeans (similar) | Boots (similar) | Bag | Sunglasses | Earrings (code: MAREE15) Friday Finds 2.14 1. Ceramides are a major part of my facial skincare routine because of how well they help protect and support the skin barrier so I like to also use them on my body for the same reason! And Naturium just launched this new body wash that I plan to be testing out this week. Perfect for calming and soothing the skin! 2. If you are looking for gorgeous timeless pieces to add to your spring wardrobe, Omika's new spring collection
I've been an Ilia Beauty fan for nearly 10 years. I've tried a handful of their products and everyday makeup essentials over the years and really enjoy the formulations. There have been a few misses here and there but for the most part I love the line. Initially the brand was predominantly a makeup only line with a heavy focus on skincare infused makeup but over the past year, they have slowly begun introducing more skincare items into their line. I've been interested in trying more foundation sticks because of how easy they are to work with so I ordered
I've always had relatively thin hair but no major issues when it came to thinning or hair loss. That was until I hid my early 40's and slowly began seeing the receding of my hair line and some really sparse spots around my face. Whenever I would pull my hair back, I had really severe widows peaks and patches where I was almost bald. Because I wear my hair down most of the time, I was able to hide it but finally decided to see if I could make an effort to grow it back or at least thicken what
Everything I Read - February 2025 1. Kill For Me, Kill For You There is a twist in the middle of this book that completely turned the entire story upside down! I absolutely love when that happens! Two women suffer horrific events and find themselves together in a support group hoping to find comfort and companionship. Amanda and Wendy end up meeting for drinks after group one evening and share bits of their stories to each other. A friendship begins but soon turns dangerous when the idea of killing for each other so as to give each an alibi comes
Cardigan (code: alittlebitetc) | Turtleneck | Jeans | Boots (similar) | Belt | Bag | Sunglasses Friday Finds 2.7 1. I ordered this (fairly new) fragrance after smelling it on a friend and falling in love with it! And when I shared it on Instagram, I got so many responses telling me how amazing it is. Stay tuned - full review coming once it arrives! 2. I think wrap coats are some of my favorite coat styles because they look so great dressed up or down. I just got this one in the mail and the fit is so chic!
Fragrance is part of my everyday routine just as my makeup and skincare is for me. I don't have the largest fragrance collection but I definitely love having a variety of scents to choose from. And honestly, a good (or bad) scent can really impact my day. Spraying a scent I really love is like having mini dopamine hits all day long every time I smell it. LOL Scent can also really create an aura around you and leave an impression on people once you leave. Have you ever smelled something and instantly thought of someone in your life who
One of my favorite ways to look pulled together while not even thinking about it is matching athleisure sets. Matching sets have become a huge part of my casual wardrobe because I can get dressed without putting an added effort, feel incredibly comfortable and still look polished and chic. Matching sets are the key to a great off duty casual look. You can add outerwear or accessories to make the outfit more interesting, but you never have to worry about deciding what to wear or what pieces to put together. And it breaks out of the leggings/oversized sweatshirt rut that
I am not one to fall victim to a celebrity beauty brand hype (though I love testing products LOL), but the buzz around Rhode Skin by Hailey Bieber has been endless. And most of the reviews I have seen and feedback I have received from my readers have all been positive. Soooooo I had to order some things to see for myself what the buzz is all about. The brand is still relatively new to the market and is owned by Hailey Bieber (yes Justin Bieber's wife). To be honest, I don't follow her on social media nor know anything
Blazer | Sweater | Jeans | Shoes | Belt | Bag | Sunglasses | Earrings Friday Finds 1.31 1. We still have quite a few more weeks of winter left but these glitter jelly sandals that I ordered are making me excited for some warm weather! (Also as a Gen X'er, I love that jellies are making a comeback LOL) 2. A recent drugstore find that I am currently testing are these plumping lip oils from L'oreal! 3. I've shared on my social media that I made a huge effort last year to discover smaller beauty and fashion brands and
