Dior Cosmic nail polish is a bright, orange-pink hue from Dior’s summer 2016 nail polish collection. This is definitely the bold color choice from Dior’s summer 2016 beauty collection for nails. Cosmic is bright, and bound to get your nails noticed!

It is always fun to wear a bright nail polish in the hot summer months. Summer 2016 is all about bright colors, rainbow color combinations, bright stripes, vivid patterns, and well, color! In order to complete a bright, rainbow hued ensemble, we all need bright nails to blend right in! Dior Cosmic for summer 2016 is the ideal choice for bright summer nails which will play well with summer’s rainbow bright color palette.

Designers in Milan, and Paris, are showing rainbow patterns, stripes, and color combination for the summer 2016 season. It is an upbeat, bright color combination which is sure to make the summer season lighthearted, and downright fun. Love it!

 I tested out Dior Cosmic nail polish for summer 2016 with one base coat, two coats of Cosmic, and one top coat. The nail polish was strong, and long lasting. It lasted a full week before I had nail growth and needed to re-paint my nails. Love that!

Dior Cosmic nail polish is a great color for the summer 2016 season. I am looking forward to wearing it often; especially with summer’s rainbow bright color palette! I love the slight sparkle finish which can be detected in direct sunlight, making this nail polish a cream polish with a fun, sparkly twist!

I love finding a nail polish which will work both on the street, and at the beach. This is definitely a color which will stand out in the sand, and dazzle during the summer on the street. I’m in love!

Charlotte Tilbury’s matte revolution lipstick is one of my favorite lipstick lines. As you know, matte lips are a huge beauty trend for spring and summer this year. This makes Charlotte Tilbury’s matte revolution lipstick collection the perfect go-to line for a matte cream lipstick.

Pink also happens to be right on trend for spring and summer 2016. So when I spotted Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Between the Sheets lipstick, I knew it would be the perfect pale pink for the season. I love it!

Between the Sheets is a fabulous pale pink lipstick which glides on smooth, is nourishing, and lasts until you eat. I love the 60s era pink hue, and how it wears! Charlotte Tilbury Between the Sheets will be a perfect lipstick for both the spring and summer seasons. Love!

Pink is an important color in both apparel and beauty for spring/summer 2016. Not only is it tied to the color of the year, it is being shown in everything from pastel hues through bright colors for both seasons. This makes Between the Sheets by Charlotte Tilbury an easy color to wear this season since it plays well with every shade of pink.

Wide leg pants for spring 2016

Wide leg pants for spring is a huge trend in fashion right now. Since I am 5’4″ tall, I am always squeemish about wearing wide leg pants. They tend to make me look short and stout. Despite this fact, I love how they look. There is a certain effortless vibe wide leg pants give off, and I am drawn to anything effortless.

When I saw these wide leg pants for spring from Banana Republic with vertical stripes, I thought the stripes might offset the wide leg, and not make me look short and stout. I was almost right!

I tried on these pants with both flat shoes, and tall heels. I found with flats, I look short and stout. Ugh! When I paired the pants with high heel platforms, the pants were balanced out, and voila; I look normal again! Yay! I found wide leg pants for spring I can actually wear!

One of the things I love about Banana Republic, is that they offer petite, and short pants. My height is on the border for petite clothing, which means petite pants do not always fit properly because my waist is long, and my legs are short. With Banana Republic’s short pant option, I can find the proper rise, and leg length, without having to have the pants altered. Love that!

I have been wearing my striped, wide leg pants for spring with a tee, and heels, but they can be styled so many other ways. For meetings or the office, they can be paired with a blazer, or crisp shirt. On colder days, they can be paired with a light sweater, and jacket. I’m looking forward to wearing these striped wide legs pants for spring in many different ways throughout the season.

Have you tried the wide leg pants trend? What do you think of the trend?
