The hot summer months have arrived. With temperatures topping out in the high 90’s around the San Francisco Bay Area this week, it is extremely important to have the right sunscreen on your face. I tested out several sunscreens, and narrowed it down to six fabulous facial sunscreens for summer 2014. 

These fabulous facial sunscreens are non-greasy and work well underneath make-up. They block the sun and do not clog pores. Love that! To make things even better, there is a sunscreen on my list within every price range. Love that too!

Pre-Fall 2014 is hitting store shelves and we are getting a glimpse into the designs and trends store buyers snapped off the runways for the upcoming cool weather season. Grey seems to be the new black; although, sometimes I wonder if black is the new grey since this seems to happen so often now! Open toe booties, shoes with ties, berry hues and cobalt blue are all of-the-moment for fall 2014.

The shoes above are on my wish list for fall 2014. They are a small snapshot into the upcoming trends for autumn. I wish I could buy them all! But alas, I must leave money in my account for things like. . .I don’t know. . .food! So boring.

Which shoes and trends do you like for fall 2014? Are there any colors you are craving for the autumn season?
