Wearing: pink ball earrings / YSL lipstick / black and white checkered blouse c/o SheIn (Under $20!!!) / Chanel spring nail polish / Gold watch c/o Welly Merck (use code BAF20 to save 20% off) / Cult Gaia Ark bag / gold bracelet cuff / boyfriend jeans (similar online here) / espadrilles

This spring there are so many ruffles and bows on the market! It is a seasonal trend I have fallen in love with. I have found myself filling my closet with ruffle and bows!

I love this black and white checkered blouse from SheIn for spring. It has a playful little ruffle around the bottom and three feminine bows down the back. The fabric is lightweight too; making it perfect for transitioning from spring into summer. Love!

I wore this outfit over the weekend for lunch, and shopping, with my friend Laura and her cute little baby Mason. You might know Laura from Have Need Want. Her baby is so cute! He is six months old, and has the cutest little smile. I had the honor of holding him for awhile and it was so nice. It reminded me of when my kids were little like that. I do miss those baby days-except for maybe the diapers. haha

This black and white gingham blouse is so much fun. I cannot wait to wear it throughout the spring season, and into the summer months. It will look cute with denim shorts too. You can find it online here for only $20! This is such a great deal on a beautiful blouse. Love it!

Comm-ci leggings athleisure look for spring

Wearing: Kendra Scott earrings / YSL lipstick / beige sparkle tee / denim shirt / black bomber jacket (under $20!!) / straight leg leggings c/o Comm-ci (so comfy!) / Givenchy handbag / Chanel spring nail polish / Adidas sneakers

It is spring break for my kids this week! Yay! This means I have been able to take a little vacation along with them. When I am relaxing, yet still need to dress decently in order to go about town running errands etc., nothing beats the current athleisure trend. I am so happy leggings are considered fashionable right now! My favorite leggings to reach for when I am sporting the athleisure look at these soft and chic, straight leg leggings by Comm-Ci.

Comm-Ci is a fabulous online shop which is a legging heaven. They offer every type of legging imaginable from cropped knee length to straight leg. They offer high waist and low waist options, making it a one-stop-shop for leggings. Love!

I really love my straight leg leggings from Comm-Ci, they are so soft and comfortable; I definitely need to add more pairs to my wardrobe!

My son is trying to save up his allowance for a video game, so I showed him how to use my DSLR camera and he took these photos! He is only eight-years-old and I think he did a great job on the photos! He was really proud of himself when he realized he had learned how to use the camera. It was so cute! Don’t you think he did a great job?

You can find my leggings and more by Comm-Ci on their website at Comm-Ci.com.

Thanks for stopping by!

L’Oreal Paris Infallible Paints collection for spring

l'oreal infallible paints

L’Oreal Paris has introduced a new collection of Infallible Paints. You can see my first post about them here. Although the collection was first introduced in January, there is more to the collection then just the lipsticks I spoke of earlier in the year. L’Oreal also has introduced amazing blushes, eye shadows and eye liners too. Love!

This new collection centers on professional level, high-impact colors which are long-lasting and  stay put; making them extremely comfortable to wear. Since spring 2017, and 2017 in general, is all about the statement lip and playing with color, the new L’Oreal Paris Infallible Paints collection is a must-have!

The Infallible Paints lip color collection comes in fourteen, high-impact colors. Aren’t they fabulous! There is a shade for every occasion in the collection from nudes to playful, bright colors. Which color is your favorite? “Taupeless” is my favorite hue from the collection. Keep scrolling to see it on me!

Aren’t these eye shadows amazing! They are liquid cream eye shadow duos which are long-lasting and bold. There are so many options for some serious eye art here! Which colors are your favorite? I’m in love with all of the duos that have a metallic shadow in them. I love sparkles!

How fabulous are these eye liners! I have not tried the white one yet, but all of the others I have, and they are so amazing. These eye liners stay put and don’t smear at all. I need that with my busy schedule! The liner offers a .1 mm width; love that! Which color is your favorite? Mine is the “Electric Blue.”

loreal infallible paints review

I am wearing “Taupeless” in this photo. It is a classic color with a bit of a modern edge. Love that!

My little eight-year-old son took this photo for me, isn’t he amazing! He told me “the lipstick makes you look pretty.” Ah, a gentleman in the making.

Isn’t the new L’Oreal Infallible Paints collection fabulous! You can find the collection online here.
