Free people always has the most comfortable tank tops. I have a few different styles, but I love this new one I just got on sale! It has a slouchy pocket in the front and a racerback. Since the top is super baggy I wore it with a lacey bralette which added texture and detail to the simple tank. I also paired it with my favorite Hudson jeans and some old leopard sandals. I love easy pieces like this tank that you can just throw on and head out the door.
The other day was such as nice day that I took my dogs, some magazines, and a snack, and spent the afternoon hanging in the park by the water. It was the perfect relaxing afternoon and was so nice to sit by the water with a breeze.
I love to try new skin and body care products, so I was naturally excited to try out the Adovia Dead Sea Salt Scrub. The scent I have was "Ocean Breeze", which is fitting for the bright blue color and beachy scent. This scrub is 100% pure and made with read Dead Sea salt. It is made with all natural ingredients and combines 21 essential minerals for proper skin function
The scrub works by gently exfoliating dead skin cells for brighter and smoother skin. I like to use scrubs like this while in the shower. I'll take a small scoop of the product and massage it into my skin using a circular motion. I usually allow for the scrub to sit on my skin for a few minutes before washing off. After putting this on, I instantly noticed my skin feeling much softer. Even after getting out of the shower and drying off, my skin still had a silky feel. You don't even need to moisturize after as it leaves skin smooth and hydrated.
I really did enjoy using this product and it has now become part of my shower routine. This will definitely help achieve perfectly soft legs just in time for summer. It also works great as a foot scrub to keep feet soft even after wearing sandals all day.

Kendall and Kylie Jenner recently partnered with Topshop to launch a summer collection. This collection has a retro LA style with slogan t-shirts, floral jumpsuits, and distressed denim shorts. I love the vintage feel of all the pieces making them perfect for a summer road trip or vacation. Shop some of my favorite pieces from the collection below or see the rest of the collection here.

I was recently watching an episode of Modern Family, where Sarah Hyland's character Haley was going to a music festival. The outfit she was wearing is completely my style and I just had to recreate it. I think this look is great everyday, but also perfect for summer concerts or music festivals. You can dress it up with a colorful flower crown like she has for a more bohemian feel.
You can get this look with a simple white embroidered tank top like this one here, a colored lacy bra, some denim shorts, and a printed kimono for an extra breezy layer. I was able to find the exact bra and kimono that she was wearing, but any lace bra or kimono will work just fine! Lastly, don't forget to add accessories. I personally love layering necklaces. I find it easiest to use delicate ones of all different lengths. However, it can be more convenient to purchase a necklace like this one here, that does the layering for you. She was also wearing a Chan Luu wrap bracelet similar to this one here, a fringe bucket bag (that's perfect for any summer event), and some booties.

These new "shoreline" converse are officially my new favorite spring shoes. I just got them the other day but have been wearing them nonstop. I love that they are a slip-on style with an elastic back and no-tie laces. I like that these are slightly different from traditional converse and that the laces just tie off on the ends. They go great with almost any outfit from shorts to dresses, and give off a relaxed casual feel. Shop these and more colors below!
I've recently been introduced to the Pure & Essential Minerals Dead Sea Mud Mask, and after trying many types of face masks, I have to say this is one of the best!
The Dead Sea mud mask has over 21 essential minerals from the Dead Sea which include skin healing properties. The mask works well with deep cleaning and hydrating your skin, while also adding a softness and glow to your complexion. Below are some of the amazing benefits of this mask.
Benefits:- Dead Sea minerals cleanse and soften your skin, reducing pores
- No harsh chemicals or artificial additives
- No more expensive spa visits required for optimum natural skin care
- 30+ facial mask treatments per jar
- 100% natural and organic skin care treatment

One of the first things I noticed with this mask was the refreshing minty scent. It also has a pudding like texture that feels elastic and light on the skin. I apply this mask at night one to twice a week and leave on for about 8-10 minutes until it is fully dry. Having pretty sensitive skin I am always hesitant about trying new products, but I was pleasantly surprised by this one as it did not irritate my skin, but rather left it feeling smooth and refreshed. If you are looking for a new affordable mask to try this is definitely the one! You can purchase it from Amazon for under $25!

As you can tell from all the pictures above, I am clearly loving a braided hairstyle for springtime. Having long hair, I always find myself braiding my hair into some type of regular or fishtail braid. This spring I want to start experimenting with different types of braids as shown to give my hair a fresh spring look that is perfect for the warm weather. What are some of your favorite spring hairstyles?

When it comes to hair, it is so important to keep it healthy and hydrated no matter what length it is. Hair can get damaged so quickly and easily from blow-drying and other styling products. To alleviate the potential problem there are a few things you can do, from washing your hair less frequently to using good conditioning products.
I wash my hair a few times a week as I don't need to do so every day. After I do, I always use a deep conditioner to protect it from damage. Recently, I have been testing the Insta Natural Hydrating Argan Oil Hair Mask. This deep conditioning treatment is designed to transform dry and damaged strands into soft, shiny, healthy hair. Using ingredients such as Argan Oil, Japanese Green Tea, Coconut Oil, Shea Butter, and Avocado Oil, provides the ultimate hydration to enhance hair strength, texture, and shine as well as protect against heat damage.
I use this mask after I have shampooed and conditioned my hair. If I am using it while in the shower, I will let the product sit on my hair for about five minutes before rinsing it out. For a longer deeper treatment I will apply the product from roots to tip after I shower. I then put my hair up in a messy bun and let it sit for about 15 minutes before I rinse.

With winter right
around the corner, I was inspired to share some of my favorite nail polish
colors for the upcoming season. As you can see above, these are the five shades
that I will definitely be rotating between during the cold winter months.
fuchsia
This pinkish red is
bold but definitely a versatile color. Fuchsia is one of those colors that just
looks flattering on every skin tone. The color gives a bright, vivid, intense,
and feminine look all at once.
Glitter
I have a bunch
of glitter polishes that are translucent and work well over another color, but
I love that this one can be worn on its own, as it's pretty opaque. The silver
glitter is festive and works as a neutral shade. For a bigger statement I will
wear it on every nail but for a more subtle effect I will put it on my ring
finger to add some sparkle with another color.
navy
This navy shade is one
of my favorite nail colors. Every time I wear this color I always get tons of
compliments. It’s just the perfect flat shade of blue that is not too
bright or dark and doesn't have shimmer.
burgundy
Deep reds and browns
have always been my go to during the winter months. One of my all time favorite
colors is Essie
Wicked, but I recently found another really nice similar color
by Butter
London. I love how warm and rich the color is. It's a great neutral
because it works well with everything!
olive
green
I was extremely surprised at how flattering this
green shade was on the nails. The picture above does not do the color justice,
as it is such a pretty and chic olive color. When selecting a green shade, I
would look for one more on the gray scale rather than a bright green. This
shade is perfect to wear all through fall and winter for a modern, fresh
look.
