Buckle Sunglasses
These sunglasses were purchased on a whim back in the Fall and I have been wearing them ever since. They are sort of a round aviator style that kind of reminds me of the forties. The thing I love most about them is the matte finish. The trend in sunglasses is all about giant lenses and a high shine, reflective finish. That’s not really my style so I was happy to find a pair of matte tortoise shades.
American Eagle Belt
Similar Here – (same quality, different color)
I have found it is incredibly hard to find the perfect belt. I had one belt that I wore for a long time, but I wanted something that was a little smaller that I could wear around my waist and hip. When I happened upon this belt in American Eagle I was happy with the width and the thickness of the belt. It’s the perfect size so it doesn’t move around within my belt loops. I really love the color too! It goes well with every color in my closet, even black!
I have been getting back into using watches. I think they add something to an outfit that jewelry doesn’t. I love the silver and black leather combo. It’s just a really simple and elegant piece that has lasted me a long time.
Betseyville Knot Slip On Sneakers
I mentioned these in my Wishlist Wednesday post a few weeks ago and I just kept thinking about them so I bought them and I am so glad I did. They are so comfortable and cute that I can throw them on with anything and head out the door.

Not Your Mothers Double Take Dry Texture Spray
I think of this as a combination between a dry shampoo and a hairspray. It gives my hair texture and volume and then gives it a medium hold all day. I am able to spray this in my hair and see the texture, but I am still able to run my fingers through it. It’s the perfect complement to my layered hairstyle.
I have been having trials and tribulations with my brows lately. After I finished my last Anastasia Brow Whiz I was on the hunt for something just as good from the drugstore.
I had some hard times for a minute with some sharpie brows, but I made it to a pretty good place. I like using a brow pencil (still trying to find something comparable to the brow whiz at the drugstore) with a brow gel for days I’m going all out with my makeup.
For “no makeup” make up days I just run the brow gel through. This product work well for both jobs. It has such a nice small wand and spreads evenly through my brows. They stay in place, but do not feel crispy. I will definitely be repurchasing this product!

Lizzy Hadfield – Shot From The Street
This fashion blogger and Youtuber has been all I have been watching lately. Her vlogs are really fun because it’s a little bit behind the scenes of her shoots as well as her daily life. Her videos about “Testing Basics” are always fun to watch because they compare the same product in all price points to see how the fit and quality is and if you need to spend a lot to get a good product (the answer is not usually).
The fashion looks on her blog always inspire me to try something new and look more polished when I get dressed. Her style takes basic pieces and makes them unique with different details. I really love her fashion point of view and you should definitely give her blog and channel a look.
This Youtuber is really fun to watch. She mostly focuses on fashion, but she doesn’t take herself too seriously which I love! My favorite video I have seen recently was when she styled runway looks for less using pieces in her wardrobe. It was nice to see that you can wear looks from the runway without breaking the bank.
