gettin’ cheeky…

We love to share our favorite things…and love to hear about yours as well! So when we find a must-have, we can’t wait to let ya know! Such as…a staple that one of us has in her bag-o-tricks (purse) at all times…

Stila Convertible Color in “petunia” (a peachy coral)

or in “Lillium” (a more reserved nude/ pink)…available at Sephora, Ulta, Nordstrom, and Amazon

The creamy, coral goodness of “petunia” is a great pick-me-up to a tired, washed out face. It’s an instant lift to the spirits and the look! Tap onto cheeks, smooth onto the lips, and you are ready to face the day (or night!)

“Lillium” is a universally flattering pink that’ll make ’em wonder how you got that glow!

They’ll ring your belle. We promise.

We been having a serious love affair lately with J Brand lately. Their fits are consistent, their style classic and their variety makes sure that there is something for everyone.

Our latest purchase was this Jean.

We are huge fans of wearing white denim all year round, and the lace on the bottom of these with its slightly creamier tone will make this is a go-to pair.

preparing for layering…

With fall on the horizon…although it might not feel like it just yet…we are thinking ahead to the “layering season”. We have a couple of go-to pieces that work for just about everything and everyone (dressy, casual…short, tall…).

One piece that we have purchased on repeat is the “First Layer” items…especially the tanks from Splendid

We like to buy them (and often wear them) two at a time for good measure. Perfect under a jacket or sweater, but perfectly stylish all alone when the afternoon heats up, you will want multiples as well.

And…bonus…at “press time”, they are on sale!!!

A total belle-ringer!

Sometimes a belle wants to go a little high-brow with her brows…but it’s pretty much a pain in the you-know-what to take the time to get them “just right”.

Well…

This little magic wand makes it a snap!! The Goof Proof Brow Pencil from Benefit is quick-n-easy and comes in a range of colors sure to match up with any belle.

Available at Benefit, Sephora, Ulta, and Nordstrom

No excuses now!
