I was NEVER into self tanning until recently where I found the best product for me. My friend Kate introduced me to it and I quickly ran to Amazon and ordered it for myself. There are two different tanning lotions from Vita Liberata that I use and one of them is a tinted lotion that hydrates while giving you some color and the other is a gradual lotion that hydrates, goes on clear, and gradually turns darker in the next few hours. For both you can apply two coats to get a more noticeable tan and you apply it with a mitt which is amazing so your hands stay clean. The one I purchased was the gradual lotion and the one I tried of Kate's is the tinted but I do like both. And this is what I'm goi

Gingham is back ladies! I love that these pants are trending now and especially because I found them at Asos Petite! I'm very short so I always have trouble getting any pants online and I was so happy that these fit me! Added a pop of red because that looks so good with gingham. Also paired with my splurge of an item, my leather jacket. I bought this when my friend worked at All Saints and got a 50% discount, but it is also on sale right now!! Such a staple piece that you should splurge on because it also keeps you way warmer than a cheap leather jacket in the winter months. Moving on to what next week is! I'm getting excited to make some dishes for Christmas and I want to hear what you make

I do have to be honest, I never really was into beauty products and a lot of it was because I didn't want to spend the money to purchase the darn expensive stuff... It was really social media influencers who got me to purchase my first serum, my first night cream, and so on because I trusted them and knew that it was working for them so I wanted to get something that I knew worked. I get that I'm only 26 and you think I don't need to worry about wrinkles but it's good to start early with these products because not only is it hydrating your skin especially in the winter months, but it's anti aging and preventing you to have bad skin in the future. I personally wish I started earlier. I feel l

I absolutely love this look because you are so casual underneath and then the fur coat just makes you look so much more fashionable and put together. The French love doing this and I love seeing this look all over Pinterest too. I typically really go for easy, casual looks in my day to day and rehear pieces all of the time. This is definitely something that is my go to for the fall and winter and the jacket just sparks up your outfit to a whole new level. Tonight I'm going to dinner with my friend Mo and we're trying out this place called Yuzu in West Loop. It's been all over Facebook lately with how they decorate their sushi plates with all these different sauces. You should definitely chec

It's crazy that Chicago has hit some type of heat wave but it's finally cooled down. I'm sad about it. I loved the 55 degree weather having my Christmas tree up! I'm getting super excited for the holidays though and going on vacation to Puerto Vallarta with my two cousins the night of Christmas! We're only going for about 4 nights but it's just enough time to get some Vitamin D and get out of cold Chicago! On to this outfit... you could totally wear this on Christmas! This Jcew jumpsuit has been in my closet for years and it's the perfect jumpsuit to layer over and also wear on a hot summer day. I found a similar one here for about the same price I paid for it. I wore it during Colin and I'
