My Current Acne Fix

This acne clearing lotion has been my recent savior!! Dr. Dennis Gross created this lotion to put a stop to blemishes without irratiting your skin. One thing I like about it aside from getting rid of zits fast, is that it is invisible once you smooth it on. I originally received this product as a sample from Sephora. Being that I have had severe issues with my skin as of late, I was extremely hesitant to introduce any new products to my already aggravated skin. However, this product had no negative side effects, and even cleared up what I had. I highly reccommend it. Check it out here!! I know the price is a little steep at $32, but it's a small price to pay for clear skin without irritation or that annoying bleaching effect that other benzoyl peroxide products leave behind (even on towels :/!! ) I will definitely be trying other products by Dr. Gross.




My Birthday Wish..(one of them)

With my birthday coming up at the end of the week..figured I would start putting up things that I have been hoping and wishing for...one being the necklace below. Check it out here or click on the picture!


Clogs!!

I've never been very into clogs..but these are actually growing on me. I can envision these with a sexy skirt or skinny jeans..maybe even some leggings! These are See by Chloe, the wedge heel makes them more wearable, and probably more comfortable than the traditional clunky clogs.

Fall Means.....Fall FASHION!!

An update is well overdue!! Being that it is September, you know what that means! No, not back to school....it marks the arrival of Fall Fashion. This is my favorite time of year for fashion, as we can start wearing darker and more sophisticated outfits. I find it a hopeful time of year, where we start harvesting and getting ready for the winter. I may be biased since I am an October baby!!

Anyhow..what to look out for this fall:

- Animal Prints: I especially love an animal print platform pump, or an animal print bag.

- Neutral Colors: You can add this into your wardrobe anywhere, be it shoes, a belt, or a bag. Neutrals are always classic and never go out of style, so you might want to invest in a neutral in between season jacket as well.

- Military Style: This is my favorite!! No matter what the fashion is, I have always been partial to dark green and cargo pants. They look amazing with black. There are some military inspired shoes as well. If you find this trend to transient, a military fitted coat works great, double breasted with metallic buttons.

- Boots, boots, boots: I like the over-the-knee style in suede.
- Flap bags: A modern take on a classic style..a little chain detailing can modernize this timeless look.
- Don't forget lace!!: You can add a little flair to any outfit with lace trim, or a lace tank underneath a blazer...another style that really never fades.

I have some ideas pictured below for all budgets. I have to admit, Forever 21 is really making some great pieces so that all can enjoy, regardless of wha
t you can spend. As we all know, it's important to be cognizant of our spending during these times. I commend Forever 21 for making fashion affordable for everyone.

I have posted a mix of items for fall below- can you tell which are the high-end designers vs. items you can find anywhere? I will provide details of where to find these trends next time! Can you tell I have a thing for shoes?
