A few of my favorite things

So today in lieu of an outfit (i looked like a mess) I'm posting some of the beauty products I can't live without! So, first things first, makeup. My basic day to day look consists of BB cream, mascara, bronzer and a lip color.

extra oil w lash mascara- rimmel, velvetines- lime crime, Dallas bronzer- Benefit, BB cream-cvs brand

Like I said, my everyday look is simple and quick. I don't like to wear too much makeup, so this is just enough to look alive, hah. 

After a long day nothing feels better than washing my face. 
makeup remover- Equate, moisturizer- Boots, face wash- Neutrogena, facial brush- Sephora

I like to really clean my face well, so I bought this facial brush to use with the face wash. My face looks and feels amazing! The Boots moisturizer is the best I've ever used. My skin is super sensitive and oily and this Boots brand really works well with my picky skin.

I'm still searching for a shampoo and conditioner, but I've found the perfect hair oil and treatment!


coconut oil- Monoi of Maui, moroccan argan oil- Organix

I fell in love with this coconut oil while on vacation in Hawaii. I use it as a body oil and as a conditioning treatment for my hair. Bonus! It smells amazing and my skin and hair feels soft and silky. For everyday hair treatment, I use the oil by Organix. It helps keep my hair frizz-free and shiny. 

So those are my favorite things!

cheers!

My little pony tail

Hello peeps. Another long work day passes and I managed to step out of my period slump. I wore a leopard print tee and some forest green skinnies. I realized that my personal style tends to lean towards comfy shirts and pants, so I try to mix it up by wearing something either colorful or printed on top and bottom. Mixing and matching. Fun.

top and skinnies- h&m 

I rocked what has been my new go-to hair-do for the past few weeks, yup, the side pony. God, I honestly love how I look rocking this do. To me, its better than the sock bun. Yeah, totally over the perfect bun. Anywho, I love my look today. Yeah, rock that pony!

cheers!!!

Viva la knockoff

I've been MIA... period problems. Today's post is one of my favorite shirts. Pink dripping cc long sleeve that's ridiculously comfortable. I think all my shirts should be in this drapey, loose style. Perfection. Shorts are star-spangled awesomeness. I love today's look. Lazy life.

Smells like teen spirit

So this morning it was cold. (68 degrees is cold by So Cal standards okay) I had to be at work by 7, and knowing that it would be hot later I didn't want to wear a jacket. What's the next best thing to wear then? A studded flannel, yay! Now, I'm PMS-ing, so all I really want to do is wear sweatpants cuz they're the only thing that fit me right now, but alas, sweats are NSFW. What's the next best thing to wear then? High-waisted, shiny leggings, yay!

flannel- h&m, leggings- DTLA, glasses- h&m

Now no 90's grunge look is complete without a tiny backpack. God I love my lil packy.
 
backpack- vintage gifted

  Ain't she cute? So yeah, thats my take on grunge. Commercial grunge? At least I do actually listen to those Seattle bands. 

cheers

Breakfast bunch

Mmmmm, breakfast. Went to a nice family breakfast this morning. Pancakes rule! The weather is grey and sprinkling here and there, but it's still warm enough for shorts. I went with a loose-fitting,.printed pair. I love these shorts, but I've only wore them like, twice. When I first bought them, they barely fitand now that I've lost some lbs, they're too loose! I probably will have to put them in the donate pile. I topped off the shorts with a denim blousethat I got on sale at Kohl's. I added some tan wedge booties to pull the look together.

Top- Kohls, shorts-h&m, booties-marshalls

  Now I'm going to nap before I have to work my 5-11pm shift. That's crap, right. Some bull-shift. Oh well, have a lovely Sunday.

Cheers!

Fun with fringe

Well hello hello. Today's look was fringey and fiery. I wore a black tank top with a rad feather print and trimmed with fringe! Super cute, fun shirt. I found it at a small shop that unfortunately went outta business. Sad. I paired the top with some red pants and brown wedges and was off to work to deal with the same shit. Oh well, I looked and felt pretty awesome, so I guess that's all that matters.

Top- pretty good, pants- h&m, shoes-justfab, accessories- h&m

  and don't make fun of my giant phone ;) 

Cheers!

Big bow babe

Today got some pretty good news concerning my career. So keep your fingers crossed for me, k, thanks! Anywho, so what did I wear today? I opted for a black tank top and leopard printed pants.


What keeps this outfit from being to blah is  what's going on in the back. (I wish it was my booty)  
Look at that cute bow! Ugh, I know. It's such an unexpected little detail and that's why I love it so. 
Cheers!!!

P.s. all clothes-h&m
