The weather here in the San Francisco Bay Area has been in the high 70’s and low 80’s lately; which is perfect spring weather! Since the weather has been perfect, I have been able to wear my new wedges from Ross which have turned out to be incredibly comfortable; not to mention they match everything!

If you missed my post on Monday, Ross is having a #ShoeSelfie contest on their Facebook page where you can upload a Shoe Selfie and be entered to win a gift card up to $500 or the grand prize! For more details, please click here. Good luck and let me know if you win!

Laura Mercier gel lip colour review

Laura Mercier has a fabulous new lipstick for spring/summer 2014! The new, limited edition, gel lip colour collection by Laura Mercier comes in four beautiful, on-trend hues and has quickly become my favorite lipstick!

I was able to test out Laura Mercier’s new gel lip colour in “Clementine” and “Temptation.” “Clementine” is a bright orange lipstick which is the exact hue spotted on the runways in New York for spring/summer 2014. Love that! I was afraid it would be too bright on me, but when I applied it to my lips it turned out to be perfect. “Clementine” has an orange-pink hue when applied to my lips and the gel formula is smooth, moisturizing and easy to wear. I also love the vanilla taste and scent!

“Temptation” was the second gel lip colour by Laura Mercier I was able to test out. It is a dark purple hue, also from the runways, which works as a nice contrast to the seasons’ pastel color palette. I love how it looks with pastel apparel; including the pale pink top I am wearing in the photo above. The color is long lasting, easy to wear, moisturizing and smells/tastes like vanilla! Yum!

Laura Mercier’s new, limited edition, gel lip colour is priced at $23 and can be found online here.
