Sundays call for an easy look. Try on a romper! Sometimes being comfortable is the biggest beauty secret. Urban Outfitters has more like this to choose from.
Back to business tomorrow, so today let down your hair. Unleash your waves with a sea salt spray. After all, you can never go wrong just being YOU.
One dress.
Four different pairs of shoes.
Four different looks.
Peep toe mule cutouts are the perfect amount of dressy for a day look.
Up the sex appeal with simple, black booties (Cathy Jean).
White slip-ons (Vans) give this dress an easy daytime look.
A burgundy heel helps add a fancy feel to your look.
Voila.
On a day when the beach is just too crowded, make it a pool day, and ditch the make-up. Instead, use an organic sunscreen to protect you from both the harmful UV rays and unhealthy chemicals. I love bringing a chap stick since my lips love to succumb to the heat too.
Don’t forget your shades! Anthropologie has a wonderful selection. Remember, they aren’t just for style, but to help make reading Cosmo and the new Jeanette Walls novel a little bit easier.
Light toned sandals, a baggu bag, and cute fedora help my bright bathing suit stand out. It was hard for me to find the perfect suit this year, but if you’re ever in Santa Cruz, Beach St. Boutique has an array of options and colors for everyone.
You might want to find a loose and lovely cover up with many colors so you can wear it with any suit, or even on a night out. The last thing to remember—water, and try adding a delicious cucumber or lemon for a nutritional twist.
Ahh… All ready to go!
Looking for a simple and clean eye look that lasts? Try a light toned eye shadow; look beyond the brand name and focus your energy on the product itself. This color worked beautifully for me, and it happened to be mac. I love the double-sided applicator brush. This way you can add more in the creases with the thicker and more defined end, or have an overall swoop with the opposite. Pencil eye shadow is easiest for me. Keep it crisp during the day and choose to smudge the line with your finger for a night out. Finally, a waterproof mascara because you don’t know what the day will call for.
Ever feel foundationed out? A tinted moisturizer is a great sub. The SPF is a good plus to keep your porcelain skin protected. Cheek stain is a fun alternative to regular blush as well. Gives you a natural pigment without the hassle of using a brush, and it blends well with the moisturizer. I use a dot of high beam on my cheek-bones, between my nose and my lips, and sometimes near my tear duct. Helps me feel, and look awake.
Organix, a great go to brand, healthy, and smells like a dream! Use them all together or one at a time. Sometimes I even use the Moroccan argan oil as a body moisturizer, and it does the trick. If you blow-dry your hair as much as I do, the anti breakage serum is a must have. Remember, a little goes a long way. I don’t always straighten my hair after a blow out, but if the events call for it, the smoothing treatment is a perfect way to tame the wave.
A great place to shop for products like these is at Sephora.
