Look of the Day #86

LOTD

Hi All! 

Happy Thursday! For those of you who went back to school this week, congratulations, you made it through your first week back from break. These next few weeks of school are going to be busy for me. I have a lot of work commitments planned for the next few weekends then it’s lots of fun things. Work then play is what I always say. 

When I was home over break, I had a few outings planned so I put together several fun outfits to share with you all these next few weeks. Let’s begin!

A few days before Christmas, my family and I headed out to a family Christmas party. I wore a similar version of this outfit last year for a night out in the city, you can see it here. I made a few changes with my hair, makeup, and shoes, so I thought I would update this look. 

Perfect for a holiday party or a girls night out

Let’s start with this top. I am obsessed with this deep red, lace top. I got it from Francesca’s Boutique. It has open shoulder sleeves which are very much in style this season. This top is very versatile. It can be worn with a pair of blue jeans, a black skirt or how I am wearing them tonight, with a pair of black jeans. It was a bit chilly out, so I wore a short black jacket to top the outfit off.

I am wearing my favorite skinny jeans. These black and ripped at the knee jeans are from Francesca’s Boutique. I have worn them previously in the fall with a short sleeve top, but since I was going out, I decided to dress these jeans up. I got this Michael Kors belt from Marshalls on sale. You never know what you will find at Marshalls. They always have great deals.

I decided to hair my high black boots with this look. Since it was chilly when I wore this, I wanted to be warm and I wanted to give it a different feel. 

As far as hair and makeup go, I opted to straighten my hair, I recently got my hair cut and layered more and I am loving the shorter do. I always have had long hair but through college I have gotten it cut shorter and layered and I really like the length that it is at right now. I have also found I have more volume with it being shorter and it’s easier to manage and style as well. It’s safe to say the short hair is here to stay. 

Mom and decided to match with the Burgundy and black look.

I finished off my outfit with gold jewelry and darker makeup due to the darker outfit. I always like to change up my look when I rewear outfits. What is your favorite way to change an outfit when you wear it for different times? 

Have a great weekend and I will see you next Tuesday as we talk about out fitness goals (originally it was going to be this week but I decided to change up my schedule a bit). See you then!

Product Review: Kylie Cosmetics

If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw I ordered and received my order from Kylie Cosmetics last Friday. Today, I’m gonna do a product review and share my favorites from her collection. Starting off, this is not a sponsored post or advertisement. I’m just sharing my own personal thoughts.

I ordered my first lip kit from Kylie Cosmetics last August, I did a lot of research on the colors and watched a lot of Kylie’s snapchat’s as she modeled the colors  and decided to go with KoKo K. I got my package in less than a week. I loved the packaging and most importantly, I loved the lip kit. With my order, I got a lip liner, and matte lip stick. I went with a pink-nude. It works perfect for any outfit. I do recommend putting on a Chapstick before you put on the matte lip stick, so your lips dont get dry. It is long lasting (even through eating and drinking…it stayed on for the whole night).

My first package from last August. Love the post card.

Here I am wearing KoKo K. I love the pink-nude. Its long lasting and can be worn with almost anything

Last week, there was a sale for Kylie Cosmetics, buy one get one free. I definitely wanted to take advantage of this opportunity. I got the Burgundy Eye Shadow Palette and got a FREE lip gloss of Posie K. Another thing I appreciated was free shipping for purchases over $40!! Once again, my orders came in less than a week with personalized packaging. I love the details that come along with ordering from online shopping. I love the gloss, the berry color adds a pop of color to any outfit and once again its long lasting. It also adds a shine to your lips and the shine stays there after its on for a few hours.

I love the mixture  of mattes and shimmers that come in the eye shadow palette.  There are a variety of color tones that can match anyone’s skin. Overall, I was very pleased with my second order and I will be ordering again.

My most recent order. I love the little note that came with it.

The Burgundy Eye Shadow Palette.

I am wearing the Posie K gloss. i love the shimmer and that berry color.

These are the only things I have purchased from Kylie Jenner’s makeup company. I obviously wear a lot of other makeup (I get most of mine from Ulta Beauty) or dare I say drug stores?! Haha!! But, it is nice to try something nice and splurge a bit on makeup. Overall, I give Kylie Cosmetics a 10/10 from me! Go ahead and check out their website, they are constantly restocking and having great deals.
