HIGHlight

One of my all time new favorite products to use daily now is Smashbox's highlighter. It adds a glow and dewy look to all the right places. It helps accentuate your cheek bones, Cupid's bow, and gives your face the perfect touch of shine! 


Back again!

Sorry for such a long stretch with no blogging- maybe we caught a little bit of that spring fever but new updates are coming soon! All these new summer trends coming in have our eyes looking all different directions. We have been posting on twitter. Here's a mini recap of the past few weeks: we are loving Jessica Alba's Met Gala look custom made by Tory Birch, spring is still all about high-low skirts, xoxo Betsey Johnson is a riot! And much more. For now here's an outfit that I loved and bought last weekend at the mall! H&M had great finds and also great prices. I'm loving this Aztec print with a little bit of a boho feel too it- of course topped with a statement necklace

Meet Lauren

One of my most fashionable and gorgeous friends Lauren is always finding the cutest things at boutiques, and the best accesories at different shops. Laur is one of my go to fashionistas when I'm looking to discuss new trends. She also has visited California a bunch of times and I'm super jealous of all her cute finds there. This weekend her outfit out was a mint forever 21 top, tied at the bottom, with gray J brand skinny jeans & a gold pair of strapped sandals. Such a great combo! Here's a little about Lauren and a pic of her outfit & a few others. Expect to see her pretty face on our blog again soon!

Pray for Boston

This week has been one of the worst weeks for everyone in Boston. These attacks have affected all my friends and myself this week and currently we are in lockdown awaiting the capture of the 2nd bomber. Marathon Monday has always been one of the best days of the year for everyone at Lasell College and the existing fans and runners around the city of Boston. After watching the amazing runners and cheering them on all morning on April 15, just like every other year, I am deeply saddened to know a lot of those runners are injured and traumatized. Currently we are all safe, and I've been glued to the TV since 6am. Ive lived in Boston for 5 years now, and it's so sad, scary and unreal that this is all happening to this amazing city. I love Boston and it will always be my home. Please fellow fashionistas, say a prayer that they catch this suspect and all the families of the marathon are brought to justice. Boston pride. Boston strong.

XO- C
