Swimwear Picks - 2017
I have been working my little fingers to the bone hunting down all my favorite swimwear looks for this season! I know it seems crazy to start thinking swimwear right now but so many styles sell out fast so you need to act quick.Most of these styles are under $100 because y'all know how I feel about a deal. I also really like having more than one swimsuit when I go somewhere tropical. [showboutiquewidget id="561463"] I'll be adding more to the list as I find them! Hope you have a great day!
Friday Favorites + Weekend Plans
Hey y'all!Just popping in to share a few Friday favorites with you, one of which is this cute stripe open shoulder top from The Belle Boutique. It's super soft and has enough length on it that you could do a little side knot or just wear it longer with leggings. They are offering 20% off for my followers when you use code HELLO20 so be sure to check them out!
A few other favorites I wanted to share are the Beauty Blender I talked about on my insta stories this week. This thing really is worth all the hype! I was so skeptical but it's the first thing I've used that gives a smooth finish without soaking up all your foundation. I love it!I also tried this green concealer for the first time this week and am obsessed. It's perfect for redness or breakouts because it neutralizes that area. It's super affordable, too! Today has been CRAZY but I've loved every minute! Tomorrow we've got a birthday party in the morning and then I'm headed to finalize the design for a huge client house reveal. Stay tuned for the finished product. I'm hoping I'll be able to sneak away with Matt for a date tomorrow night. With all the craziness of this week and weekend, we could really use it!Hope y'all have and awesome Friday and just the best weekend!!
Spring Shoes Trends
Spanish factory workers in the thirteenth century used to burn and braid a plant called esparto to make the soles of their shoes. They employed seamstresses to use a linen fabric to create the heal and toe and began selling the shoes to anyone from military personnel to members of the clergy. The process of making espadrilles evolved thru the centuries til the early 1960's when a wildly famous designer, Yves St-Laurent, asked for an espadrille with a heel. The rest, as they say, is history!Nerd alert. If you want to read more about the history of these cutie shoes, you can go here. If you want to read more about some of my favorite styles of espadrilles with varying price points, keep reading below!If you've followed me on instagram for more than a minute, then you've seen that I wear the heck out of these Mark Fisher Espadrilles. First of all, they go with everything... dresses, cut off shorts, rompers, crop jeans. I could keep going. Secondly, they are very comfortable. I read quite a few reviews before purchasing and the general consensus was that the comfort level is solid but I did want to see for myself. I am now totally convinced! I wore them all day on Sunday and was completely fine.Not thrilled about the price point on the Mark Fishers? These Steve Madden Espadrilles look very similar but they're less than half the cost. I can't give any reviews on these because I haven't gotten to try them yet. But the people I know who've gotten them have liked them so far! And for the price, you can't beat it.I'm really loving all the ankle tie flats and wedges I'm seeing for Spring! These Black Steve Madden Ankle Tie Espadrilles are next on my list of shoes to buy followed up with the most adorable Vince Camuto Bow Back Espadrilles. ALL the heart eyes for the bow detail on the back.I don't wear wedges all the time, so I also like having a cute pair of flats to throw on and these Strappy Flat Sandals from Target are literal perfection. They kind of look like something Joanna Gaines would wear, which (duh!) makes me love them just that much more!You can find all the options I talked about in today's post below. The Mark Fisher pair that I have are out of stock already at Nordstrom but they do have them in stock at Zappos![showshopthepostwidget id="2446960"]
