Happy Wednesday! I had a realization that today I’m wearing a whole bunch of things that are everyday favorites and staples in my life. It’s a super basic outfit and showcases what I look like on a typical workday.
HAIR
Suave dry shampoo / It’s hair dye day for me- I’m going super red tonight. I washed it Saturday and we’re still going strong with this dry shampoo that I added last night.
ACCESSORIES
Etsy friendship bracelet / I got a matching one with my best friend for her engagement gift this summer.
Initial earrings / I have a V & an R for my parents names… they think it’s weird but I thought the earrings were cute and wanted them lol.
Cross Necklace / I got this little sideways cross necklace on Etsy and love how dainty it is. It hasn’t tarnished or made my skin green at all so I can leave it on 24/7 with no issues.
Nose ring & daith heart ring from piercing shops / I want to get a second nose ring so bad!
Hat / So I don’t feel like the hat really went with my outfit all that well, but I threw it on when I went into the store to take this picture because my face was an oily mess. It’s way cuter with a leggings and hoodie or another more casual outfit.
Bag / This the best big bag for work and everyday life. I can lug around my lunch, planner, makeup, vitamins, and everything else. Mine is the khaki color, but I’m kinda wanting the black/ brown color for winter too.
SKIN
Banana Boat Summer Color / I’ve been putting this on in the evenings mixed with some Hempz lotion to stay a little darker than I naturally am. I’m so bad at remembering to moisturize my body so getting tan is good motivation to remember to apply.
Moisturizers / After washing my face with Glossier Milky Jelly Cleanser, I put on Snail Bee Steam Cream, then my SPF moisturizer from Target
L’oreal Lash Paradise mascara / This is sooo so good, but it weirdly only looks nice when I have curled my lashes.
ABH brow pencil / I like the real pencil you sharpen, it lasts way longer than the mechanical brow wiz pencil. I put a little on the tail of my brows and smudged above my upper lashes.
Glossier Mint Balm Dotcom / I keep this at my desk and reapply all day long.
Nudestix Mystic pencil / I added a little bit of this lip color and smudged it around because it makes my lips look a nicer color than they are naturally.
YSL Mon Paris rollerball perfume
CLOTHING
Forever 21 cami top / I have like 4 of these I switch between and they are so cheap!
White Express V-neck London shirt / These are my favorite style of basic everyday shirt- deep v, oversize, loose and long.
Free People Float On Jeans / I love these bell bottom jeans so much. They look awesome with a shirt half tucked in to show the high waist and heeled booties to look more glamourous, but this was a comfy work day outfit so I didn’t do any of that lol.
Minnetonka moccasins / I love feeling like I’m walking around in slippers all day long whenever I wear these. They go with literally any casual outfit I put together.
H&M cardigan / I keep this sweater in my car to grab if I get chilly at work or any time I need a comfy sweater that will match with everything. I linked a similar one.
NAILS
La Vie en Rose by Deborah Lippman / hands
Geranium by Essie / toes
I’m opposite of glam and pretty low maintenance because of the lack of time I allow for getting ready on work days. I took the OOTD pic in Nordstrom Rack on my lunch break and felt like a dweeb doing so. I would recommend not going in there right now… there are way too many cute fall clothes!

such a good idea for a post series! xoxo
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering what
all is required to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% sure.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
