Travel Diary Part I – Redington Beach

Hello everyone! I am beyond thrilled to be sharing yet another post with all of you today! A close friend and I decided to to venture off into a weekend getaway to celebrate the end of our time at our university. Laughter, sunshine, tousled beach hair, and timeless memories were among the many things we shared during the trip. Visiting the beach was such a tranquil experience; the waves caressing the shore, the warmth of the sand embracing my skin, and the sea breeze gently sweeping the landscape was incredibly magical. I am dying to return already! I recently picked up the swimsuit featured in this post from Target. I love the the vibrant embroidered detail against the black canvas. It adds just enough color, perfectly capturing the essence of the warm summer season. I want to give a special thank you to my friend, Meghan, for the incredible time! It was unforgettable. – Details – Target Xhilaration Bikini | Vince Camuto Mini Backpack Until next time. Take care!

The feminine shades work wonderfully together and the hint of shimmer can add dimension to an otherwise simple look. Though I do not own the Urban Decay Naked 3 palette, I feel this small compact mimics the rosey tones wonderfully and allows someone on a budget to accomplish a look similar to what the Naked 3 provides. The shades themselves I feel are easy to work with and lend themselves wonderfully especially for …

Five Makeup Products I’d Bring if I was Stranded on an Island!

Hello everyone! I hope all of you are absolutely wonderful today. One day I caught myself thinking if I were stunk on a deserted island what on earth would I bring?! I thought it would be fun to share it with all of you! Comment below with what five things you would bring!  1. Foundation A good foundation for me is a must. I love evening out the redness and pigmentation on my cheeks for a flawless yet natural finish. I cannot be without it on a deserted island since it can also double as concealer. My dark circles aren’t too bad…yet! The foundation shown is Revlon’s Colorstay Whipped Creme. I have been on the hunt for “the” foundation, but my skin hasn’t been cooperating. I’m testing this one out so we’ll see! 2. Blush Blush is a must for me! I love a soft flush on the cheeks; it can make you look so refreshed and awake. It can lift your bone structure and make your overall complexion perky! How could I not bring this …
