Summer Must Haves

June 27, 2019

Temperatures are finally heating up and so are summer trends. The key to my summer dressing is ease. It’s too hot to fuss with layers and too many bells and whistles so here are some of my top picks to keep you cool for the summer.

BLANKNYC Leopard  Shorts

Leopard print and distressed denim one? Be still my heart! I am nuts for both the fit and price of these shorts. I pair them with everything from a white blouse to a graphic print tee.

Arizona Copper Birkenstocks

Not your basic comfort shoes. I have been living in these the last few weeks. They are a dream to walk on and the metallic sheen make it clear these ain’t your grandma’s Birkenstocks

Ray-Ban Unisex Brow Bar Sunnies

Part handbag, part art. Okay, mostly art as you can’t have your purse inners a mess when carrying this. It does however hold all your brunch and beach essentials and looks fab with any outfit!

Pily Q Joy Lace Coverup 
Pily Q has quickly become my go to for well made and crazy flattering bathing suits. This cover up is magic worn alone over a suit or layered on top of distressed denim and slides for a poolside lunch.

Brixton Joanna Straw Hat
I love me a good summer hat for two reasons. One, they camouflage greasy beach hair and two, they keep (more) wrinkles at bay. The brim to crown ratio is sheer perfection on this hat and the straw keeps your head cool on warm days.

Metallic Salon Slide Clips
You’ll find these Free People metallic hair clips in every side pocket of every purse I own. Of course they are cute as can be, but they are also super functional and the perfect way to keep those summer fly aways in their place.

Supergoop Everyday Sunscreen
The older I get, the more I nuts I am about sunscreen. Wether I am headed to the beach or just out and about, I slather on this sunscreen daily. It’s incredibly light weight and the citrus and basil notes are a far cry from the chemical smell of the sunscreens of yesterday.

Nars Velvet Lip Pencil in Promiscuous
I like my summer make-up to stay put as long as possible, through sun and surf and everything in between. This Nars velvet lip pencil goes on silky smooth and stays put. The bold color adds a nice pop to a summer tan.

Free People Rumors Denim Jacket
A denim jacket is the perfect topper for anything in the summer- bathing suit, sundress, t-shirt and cutoffs, anything! The wash on this jacket reads summer and the fit is to die for.

Spring is the perfect time for new beginnings in a Spring is the perfect time for new beginnings in all things, including your face 😆
I took the plunge and did some lasers and I’m so thrilled with the results. I visited BeYouthful Aesthetics, @beyouthful_sd and saw the lovely Deana Buan. As a woman who struggles with both aging skin and acne yet still too nervous to start injecting anything into my face, lasers seemed to be my best bet.  I opted for a 1-2 🥊and did an IPL and Fraxel laser combo. IPL helps with discoloration and the Fraxel helps bump up collagen production- and Deana’s secret numbing cream helps makes it all tolerable. Head to my stories for a detailed breakdown. 👩‍🔬
Swimming into this beautiful Saturday! I am hard o Swimming into this beautiful Saturday! I am hard on bathing suits with constant dips into the pool, ocean and lake so don’t like to break the bank on swimwear. I prefer to buy a handful of cute trend bathing suits like this from @targetstyle and have one for every day of the week. Bonus- these suits are sold as separates since not too many of us ladies are the same size on top and bottom. My favorite suits, all under $20 a piece linked in bio. #swimsuit #afforadableswimwear #summasummasummatime
