wearing: bold earrings (on major sale!) / lipstick / classic green blouse c/o ModCloth (avl in more colors!) / black vegan moto jacket c/o Modcloth (under $100!) / fall jeans / black handbag / bold white and silver statement ring / nail polish / belt (vintage Prada-also love this one) / white fall booties /

Can you tell I am excited to start wearing my new fall clothing? Thankfully we have foggy mornings, so I have been able to wear my new fall clothing in the morning before the fog burns off. In the afternoon when the sun is shining, I can change into shorts and a tee.

I love this blouse and moto jacket I picked up last month at the ModCloth FitShop San Francisco. It was such a fun shopping experience, and I love the new additions to my wardrobe I picked up. This vegan moto jacket is really soft and comfy; plus it’s a classic closet staple priced under $100. In addition, designers are loving moto jackets this fall, so there are quite a few hitting store shelves for the new autumn season. This one is affordable and it’s vegan! Love that!

You may see these jeans a lot this fall! They are my favorite new pair of jeans. The denim is really soft, and the fit is so comfortable. I want to wear them everyday!

Also need to give another shout-out to these boots. They are super comfortable, and the split shank makes them easy to wear as a transition shoe from summer into fall. Love that!

This is a really comfortable, casual outfit I can wear now and into the fall season. I love finding transitional pieces which can carry me from late summer into the fall season.

My cute little ten-year-old son took these photos. He did a pretty good job didn’t he? I was very relieved to look at the camera roll and not see any blurry photos. He did a great job holding the camera steady and mostly straight! I only had a few sideways photos that needed to be straightened. haha

Thanks for stopping by!

Fresh Black Tea Kombucha Facial Essence review

fresh black tea kombucha facial treatment essence review

pictured: Fresh Black Tea Kombucha Facial Essence c/o Fresh / nail polish /

One of my favorite skin care brands is Fresh. So, when they reached out to let me know about their new Fresh Black Tea Kombucha Facial Essence, I knew I needed to test it out! This fabulous facial treatment provides anti-pollution and antioxidant protection, enhances skin luminosity, reduces the look of fine lines, refines the look of pores, improves elasticity, smooths skin texture, boots skin’s healthy tone, and provides 24-hour moisture. Love!

The Fresh Black Tea Kombucha Facial Essence is an important step in your skin care routine. It is ideal to use after washing your face, and before applying face cream. It is a great protector against pollution which is a huge threat to aging.

My skin tends to be sensitive, and the Fresh Black Tea Kombucha Facial Essence is gentle on my skin. It’s a fast-absorbing liquid formula which I leave on after washing my face. It preps my skin for my face cream, and it’s gentle enough to use twice a day. Love that!

You might be wondering, what is Kombucha? It is a fermented sweet black tea which is rich in vitamins and organic acids produced through the fermentation process. The Kombucha Fresh uses in their products has an unique composition that gives it powerful properties which protect skin from pollution, and free radicals.

Did you know pollution ages you? It happens to be one of the biggest threats to our skin; especially if you live in an urban area or an area famous for poor air quality. Air polkutants such as smoke, and smog, can cause oxidative stress that accelerates signs of aging. The new Fresh Black Tea Kombucha Facial Essence is formulated to protect skin from pollution and help prevent premature fine lines.

I love how the Black Tea Kombucha Facial Essence by Fresh makes my skin feel after washing my face. It helps my face cream absorb into my skin, which is what we want right? I mean, think about how much we pay for our skin cream! It’s nice to know that Fresh Black Tea Kombucha Facial Essence helps our skin absorb that expensive cream while protecting skin from pollutants. Love that!

I’m excited to add Fresh Black Tea Kombucha Facial Essence to my twice-daily skin care routine. You can find it online here.

Summer 2018 sales and deals

wide leg pants summer 2018

There are so many great summer 2018 sales and deals right now! I want to share with you all these sales before they are gone! Fall 2018 is hitting store shelves, and stores are eager to clear out all of their summer merchandise. Of course, temperatures won’t go down until October, so there is plenty of summer weather left for wearing these pieces!

These comfortable wide-leg black trousers also come in two additional colors, and are on major sale for under $20! Grab a pair before they are gone! The olive top I am wearing, which also comes in additional colors, also happens to be on major sale for well under $20. It’s great with trousers, skirts, and jeans. This is the perfect top to wear now, and well into the fall season. Love that!

blue valentino tango pumps fall 2016

These pumps are my go-to heels when I need to be dressed up. I have owned them for a couple of years and they are comfortable, chic, and easy to walk in. I cannot believe the amazing discount they are on right now! You can grab a pair of these Valentino pumps for yourself at a fraction of the price I paid online here. I also created a shopping widget with both heel lengths below. I own the shorter heel in red, and the tall one in slate. I love them both! If you are looking for a designer deal, this is it!

Also, keep in mind not all retailers are discounting this shoe, so it’s still regular price at department stores. These online deals on these shoes are amazing. These shoes are not a close-out, so they will still be around for awhile! I plan on snapping up a black pair; just need to decide which heel height to get!

denim dresses summer 2018

This denim dress is a go-to for brunch, meeting up for lunch, shopping, church, and anytime I want to wear a dress! The shoulders can be worn on, or one-shoulder off, or both shoulders off; so it can be worn day into evening too! This denim dress is on major sale, so be sure to grab one before it is gone!

summer stripe dress

I’m a sucker for stripes, and this dress is fabulous on hot days. It’s really comfortable and flattering, love that! I can’t believe what a great deal it is right now. If you need a sundress, this is the one! You can snap one up before it’s gone forever online here.
