3D Fiber Lash Mascara Tutorial

What you'll need:

1. Your favorite mascara or mine - Stila major MAJOR

2. Younique Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lashes

 Just for a point of reference - this is my before picture.

Even though the directions don't call for it, I chose to apply my normal mascara as usual so that I could have as much volume as possible even before applying the fiber lashes. I had to use my favorite Stila major MAJOR mascara, of course!

Now you see why I love this mascara?! Just wait, y'all! 

Now it's time to apply the 3D Fiber Lashes.  The first step is applying the transplanting gel.  I like to make sure I am extra thorough with this step because this is like the glue that the fibers stick to.  The better you apply this gel, the better your lashes will look.

The next step is applying the fibers.  One trick I use when applying these is to have the wand already unscrewed immediately following the application of the transplanting gel so that it has as little time as possible to dry before I apply the fibers.  I make sure to continue to apply the fibers until I notice they don't seem to be sticking anymore.  

After the fibers have been applied, another coat of the transplanting gel sets them in place.  How amazing do these lashes look?!

My favorite part is, I get the look of false lashes without the hassle of applying them!

Boots and Back Details

Top: Vestique -last season (loving this fun back detailed top, also from Vestique) // Jeans: JCrew (craving) // Boots: Nine West (similar, craving) // Tassel Necklace: gift (similar) // Earrings: Tory Burch // Wrist Details: MK, Stella & Dot, Bella Jack (similar) //

This was my first time breaking in my boots again for fall and I couldn't be happier about it! I got these boots two years ago and they still are as gorgeous as the day I got them.  I have 3 pairs of nine west boots that have all held up beautifully despite my obsessive wearing of them! 

The details on the back of these boots were perfect to pair with this back studded tulip top from Vestique.  I don't think I've ever left the boutique without buying at least one thing! They have a location here in Greenville and you can shop their website online.

Happy shopping y'all!

Bangs + Bargain Graphic Tee

Jeans: HM (loving these) // Graphic Tee: Old Navy (on sale!) // Wedge Booties: Kelsi Dagger - old (similar, craving) // Handbag: Louis Vuitton // Earrings: Kate Spade // Bracelets: Kate Spade, Urbanite 

Now that we are officially into fall, I thought it was the perfect excuse to cut my bangs short.  I love everything about fall fashion, but I have to say bangs are definitely at the top of my 'favorite fall trends' list. 

 I adore graphic tee's and found this fabulous tee at Old Navy.  They have a great selection of the cutest graphic tees at a bargain price.  As if it wasn't a good enough deal to start with, they are on sale right now and if you use the code LEAF (today only) it'll take an additional 25% off! 

Happy shopping y'all!

Track Pants Trend

Top: Forever 21 (similar) // Pants: TJMaxx (similar, craving) // Heels: Christian Louboutin (craving) // Crossbody: Kate Spade (similar) // Earrings: Kate Spade (similar) // Bangles: Kate Spade // 

I'm loving the new trend of so called "track pants".  The name is very deceiving for how adorable these pants can be! Not only are they the most comfortable things ever, there are about a million different styles and colors out there to play with! I listed a couple in my links above, but I could go for days linking fabulous track pants.  I decided to style these more dressy, but don't be fooled they can be very versatile and dressed down easily! Nordstrom has a whole category dedicated to track pants here, and with their free shipping and free returns policy, it can't hurt to order a few pairs and try just to see if you like them or not! 

Happy shopping y'all!

Perfect Pink Romper

Romper: Vestiuqe (craving) // Wedges: Calvin Klein (similar) // Clutch: JCrew (craving) // Necklace: Urbanite (craving) // Bangles: Kate Spade // Earrings: Kate Spade

I was looking for the perfect outfit to wear to my sweet nephew's 1st birthday party.  I wasn't quite sure what would work for an outdoor daytime event since it's been so hot! Then I found this perfect pink romper! Our local Vestique is having an amazing end of summer blowout sale and this romper was only $15!  It's lightweight, comfortable, and best of all flattering! And doesn't this necklace just set it off perfectly? Urbanite jewelry is the best!

 Now, most importantly, is my nephew not the most perfect?!  Happy Birthday, sweet Ford! You are loved more than you'll ever know!

Happy shopping y'all!
