Weekend Giveaway :: A BIG thank you to my readers!

 

 Today I was in Sephora checking out their latest fall  lip color and as I headed to the checkout lane I saw this awesome mascara & lash curler from Tarte (I'm a total sucker for small gadgets near the checkout line). What better way to thank all my lovely readers than a weekend giveaway!

The mascara is by Tarte, called Lights, Camera, Flashes. I just read a few review and everyone raves about the mascara. For a chance to win, please comment below and tell me your favorite mascara. Right now I'm loving Buxom Lash and Guerlain Maxi Lash. Be sure to leave a comment before Wednesday at 9pm EST.

Black & White :: Ann Taylor Shorts & Forever 21 Vest

 

 

At the beginning of the summer, I bought this cute little vest from Forever 21. There were so many times I pulled it out of my closet and tried it on with an outfit. What I realized with white faux leather, is that it looks good with white cotton. The shorts were another one of my favorite purchases. Purchased from Ann Taylor during their Summer Sale. Today's outfit I wanted to keep it simple, black white and little nude heel to top it off.

Coffee Break :: Floral Peplum & Striped Skirt

Happy Labor Day everyone! I hope most of you have today off and are enjoy the time away from work.  I'm a big believer in "breaks" from work.  If it weren't for the weekend to slow me down, I think I could work seven days of the week.  I owe this to being a slight perfectionist and a multitasker, ladies I know several of you can agree! On the weekends I  shut down my "work brain" and focus on my fiance and my blog. It's a good time to regroup and focus for the next week.  

Today's outfit is two of my favorite pieces in my closet.  I love this floral top, I could wear it everyday.  The same for the skirt. The material is so pretty and it fits me perfectly around the waist. It poufs out just enough to be a girly striped skirt.
