I (Monica) put together some gifts for her which most of us consider essentials.
Candles, glosses, cute bags, jewels, a pretty belt, and something cute to pour your cream with I can’t think of anything lovelier.
Hello there Jewels,
I am a fan of metallic and white and I decided to combine them. Unfortunately, I can’t pull off a pure white as well as I can pull off the winter white (which is more of an ivory) you see in the stores after Labor Day.
I decided to wear this skirt before I start having to wear it with tights.
Sunnies: Tory Burch similar here/ blouse via TJ Maxx/ Lipstick Soft Coral-Bobbi Brown similar here/ skirt UNITED COLORS OF BENETTON (I absolutely love this brand, they use real zippers unlike other brands that use flimsy zippers)/ heels L.A.M.B./ Clutch LA Regale/ Jewels essentjewls
Hello Jewels,
The weather in the MI (Michigan) has been hot and humid and feeling like I am in Florida. Us Michiganders love to vacation in Florida during the cold grey winters, that is if my husband and I are not in California visiting my family. So what did I do, I faked it like I was in Florida, I put on what I call my Florida attire because it is bright and colorful, only I did not feel like wearing a skirt/dress.
Hair my friends: velcro rulers they are great because I am not adding unnecessary heat to my hair which I do enough of with a blow dryer.
Cross Necklace: Faith (currently what is keeping me living) essentjewels which you can find here.
Coral blouse: Express and Coral Lipstick: Bobbi Brown
Want-to-be Ray Ban Wayfarer: bungalow
Belt: J.Crew, our Carol pearls strand bracelet you can find here: essentjewels, wire watch: Gucci
Floral kitten heel heels: Etienne Aigner (this is probably as floral as it gets for me, everything else I will keep as chic as possible). Nail Polish: O.P.I. (Did it on EM) which I am currently addicted to because I have had it on my toes for a month now and it plays pretty close to a neutral, it is also not a true yellow, it is more in between a yellow/lime which works with my skin tone, a true yellow most likely would have not worked.
White Jeans: Paige
Ring: Sea essentjewels, you can find here, everyone is doing it mixing the gold with the silver, I also added our accountability bracelet you can find here, I think mixing the silver and gold really works well when wearing bright colors, and nail polish: Revlon (Coastal Surf) , I had to put it on because I had Florida on my mind.
And there you have it my Florida attire.
