    Summer Beauty Must-Haves

    In the summertime, I don’t like to wear a lot of makeup and when I do I want it to stay in place even if I sweat.  The average temperature during the summer here in Vegas is in the low 100s.  Not to mention that usually some time in July Monsoon Season begins and the humidity can rival the south at times.  Full confession time…I inherited my dad’s sweat glands.  Body odor isn’t the issue, it’s the dripping sweat.  Totally disgusting, huh?  Anyway, here are my top summer-time beauty faves; there is some makeup, some skin and hair care, and of course, can’t have a proper summer without sunscreen. The sunscreen…

    photo credit: The Velvet Snout, http://www.thevelvetsnout.com/ Yesterday was the first official day of summer, and of course in true Vegas style, it was also the hottest thus far coming in at 111 degrees F.  At that temperature, you head to the pool, hunker down inside or escape to the air-conditioned movie theater.  We spent the day at the pool and Goob was a champ for it being his first time.  He stayed in the shade the whole time with me while the 3 amigos swam, but there wasn’t any crying, he just laid by me enjoying the mom time and being shirtless.  Dying to find out this week’s top favorites? …

    Sephora Rouge Sale-My Picks

    It is that time of year where makeup junkies black out and sometimes end up with buyer’s remorse when the semi-annual Sephora sale is over.  I know I have been suckered in just about every time.  I find myself justifying the want to purchase big ticket items just because I have a rarely given coupon code.  Sephora only has 2 of these sales a year, a spring sale and a fall sale.  The spring sale, for some reason, has a max of 15% off whereas the fall sale has a 20% off for Rouge VIB members.  Sephora is a smart bitty this way…only have 2 sales a year, only have…

    Athleisure has been my go-to attire since coming home from the hospital with Goob; since I spend most of my time lounging around with the new bebe and chasing after the other 3 amigos.  I just can’t get enough of these Bench hoodies.  I have this pink one and then I also have a turquoise one.  They are lightweight and comfortable.  Here I’ve paired the Bench hoodie with some Lululemon Street to Studio pants and Nike Air Max 90 sneakers. Two beauty products that I am living for at the moment have been the Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector and the NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer.  Both of these help me…

    Spring ’18 Fashion Picks

            Every spring I find myself purchasing a new pair of Arizona Birkenstocks.  I wear them so often throughout the spring/summer/fall that they are pretty beaten and dead come winter.  My pick for this spring are these Arizonas in the Metallic Anthracite Leather.  Arizonas also run about 1-1.5 large on me.  I usually wear a 7.5 and I size down to the 6-6.5 in Birkenstocks.   Another shoe pick for this season is these Marc Fisher Annie Perforated Espadrille Platform Wedge in the color Sweet Nude Suede.  They run true to size and are extremely comfortable.  They look high and like they will kill your feet, but…
