Back To School Outfits

Well the time has finally arrived..School time! As I enter into my senior year of college I wanted to share with you some of the outfits I love to throw on for class. I never have the motivation in the morning to get all fancy but I do enjoy looking put together. These outfits are fool proof and are ones I always gravitate towards in one form or another. 

T-Shirt Dress & Baseball Hat:

I love t-shirt dresses because it's like wearing a comfy t-shirt minus the part about having to find pants to wear, which i'm all for. I love tying a shirt around my waist to throw on in the morning when its cooler out, then tie around my waist when I get too hot, plus I think it looks cute. My favorite thing to add to any outfit is a hat & my favorite kind is baseball hats, I'm not sure why I love them so much but I do. I love ones that look a little more distressed and well loved. 

Jeans/ Tank/ Flannel: I love wearing dark jeans and a plain tank top,  it's super easy and when you tie a flannel around your waist it makes the outfit look complete. I usually pair this outfit with either my white or navy blue converse.

Distressed Jeans/ Sweater/ Flats: I recently picked up these distressed jeans and i'm obsessed with them. These jeans are perfect for pairing with a simple top and shoes since they already have a lot going on with all the rips. 

 

Clothing I've Mentioned:
T-Shirt Dress
Flannel Shirt
Chambray Shirt

Rocksbox Review

This month I had the chance to try out such a cool subscription box called Rocksbox. Each month the company sends you jewelry to wear based on your personal style profile. The coolest part is you don't have to purchase any of the jewelry but you do have the option if you really like a piece you are sent. The cost of the box is $19 but the company was nice enough to give me a discount code that will allow you all to try out the Rocksbox completely free for your first month! What I love about this subscription box is that they're sending you quality pieces, not some janky stuff you would never wear. Below I'll show you the pieces that I received that I'm absolutely loving! 

Use this code to receive your first month free!

New Product Review

Recently I've picked up some new beauty products & I wanted to share with you my thoughts on them. I've included some more pricey products & some very affordable ones and I'm loving both equally! 

Too Faced Born This Way: 

This foundation claims to be undetectable on the skin providing medium to full coverage and I can promise you that those claims are true. The foundation dries to a very nice skin like finish not being too matte or too luminous. The shade range of this foundation is great if you have medium skin tones. If you have a lighter complexion you might have trouble using this foundation as the lightest shade isn't very light in my opinion. The upsides of this foundation are that it provides good coverage without being cakey and it feels fresh and clean on the skin. The downfalls on this foundation for me are that it doesn't blend in as easily as I would hope, I'm going to continue trying out different brushes and sponges with it and find a way that makes it blend in easier. The other downfall for me is that I find it makes me oily after about 3 hours and start to slide around on the face, this can be prevented with a good primer and setting powder but without those the staying power isn't that great.

 

Makeup Forever Step 1 Skin Equalizer Smoothing Primer:

I've never really been into primers before because I didn't feel like they did anything, until I tried this one. This primer is great, it fills in ALL of my pores and makes my skin look flawless. It also keeps my foundation in place all day so this is perfect to pair with the Born This Way foundation. The other thing I love about this primer is that it doesn't have that slippery silicone feel to it & as an added bonus it has a nice floral scent to it.

 

e.l.f. Contour Palette:

For the price of this palette you can't go wrong. The quality is great, not too powdery and the product blends out well. I'm pretty sure the palette only comes in one color range which is a downfall. If you are light skinned or have darker skin this palette probably won't work for you, but I'm sure they will come out with more shades eventually.

 

e.l.f. Matte Eye Shadow Palette:

This is the best matte eye shadow palette I've seen in a while. The shade range is great including both warm and cool tones and there are shades that will look great on many different skin tones. This palette is great for everyday looks. The price of this palette is under 10 dollars so you really can't beat it.
