My Favorite Beauty Products

by Kamila // May 9, 2019 // Comments off

What is my favorite foundation?

I absolutely love the Even Better Glow Light Reflecting Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 15 by Clinique. It’s a liquid foundation that is so easy to apply and it gives you subtle coverage in that it doesn’t even show that you have something on, while at the same time, still covering all the imperfections. Yes, this foundation is magic to me and I also like that it also provides sun protection so it’s like a two in one product. I also have the brand’s Chubby in the Nude Foundation Stick, which I use if I don’t want to spend too much time applying makeup as it’s even quicker to use and it also works great. It leaves a more matte look though in comparison to the liquid foundation.

What is my favorite eye primer?

My one and only the URBAN DECAY Eyeshadow Primer Potion – Original. I never cared about any other eye primer than this one. It’s perfect in every way! You can wear your make up 24 hours and it will still look good. Besides that, you won’t get any creases and it glides on smoothly. I can’t say enough good things about this product.

What is my favorite highlighter?

I tried many highlighters, but the one I always go back to is the Benefit Watt’s Up! Cream-to-Powder Highlighter. It really gives you that nice glow and shimmer that I did not get from any other highlighters. It’s definitely one of those products that if you ever get it in a sample size, you’re going to run to get the full size product.

What is my favorite perfume?

There is no way I can choose between the three I always have in the house: Stella McCartney – Stella, Tocca- Isabel, Lacoste. Lacoste has been with me since high school. I’m on the second bottle of Stella and Isabel is pretty new to me, but definitely one of my favorite Tocca fragrances.

What is my favorite hair product?

I wish I had discovered the Moroccanoil Treatment earlier, but better later than never. This product does everything for your hair. After applying it the first time, I immediately felt a difference in how easy it was to comb my hair, how soft it felt and how shiny it looked. I tried so many hair products, but this one really stands out. To me, it’s worth its cost and much, much more!

Daisy Print Shirt Dress

by Kamila // May 6, 2019 // Comments off

Andrew McMahon In The Wilderness – Cecilia And The Satellite

It’s finally warm enough to wear Spring dresses. This daisy print dress is going to be one of my favorite dresses for sure. It’s so comfortable and flowy at the same time. Daisy print has been pretty popular lately as well and this is actually my third daisy print item I have in my closet. You can easily say I’m into it, haha. I love how this dress has longer sleeves because it’s perfect to wear on those Spring transitional temp days. It also helps that it’s very adorable!

I matched it up with this neon yellow bag that I actually got last year. It’s a bold color and might not go with everything, but I have to say I wore it quite a bit. I think it goes great with blue so it looks perfect with jeans, for example.

Last, but not least, how cute are those earrings? Guess what, they are only $3!

Cotton T-Shirt

MISSLOOK Women’s Adjustable Spaghetti Straps Sundress

Here are some of my recent purchases that I’ve never had a chance to share with you. You might already see some of them though, like the High Rise True Skinny Ankle Jeans in Colorthat I put on my Spring Wish List and I’m happy to say I made that wish come true.

The other thing you might have seen on my Instagram is the Jou Jou Juniors’ Faux-Leather Jacket, I got it in pink but unfortunately they don’t have it online anymore. Now, you can get the same style in grey, brown or black.

I’m in love with this mint Vintage Soft Graphic Crossover Pullover Hoodie. What a great color for Spring!

I always needed a black pair of jeans because, believe it or not, I didn’t own any. This Mid Rise Favorite Ankle Jeggingswere the one for me. They are something in between jeans and leggings, which is exactly what I wanted.

Another pair of pants I added to my closet are very casual and sporty Softspun Joggers. I absolutely love them! They are so soft and comfortable and will go great with a pair of white sneakers and jean jacket.

The two tops I got are the Off-the-shoulder Blouseand a very simple Cotton T-Shirt. The first one is one of my favorite prints – gingham. It’s very beautiful and feminine and under $10! The second one is a black polka dot t-shirt for under $5. You need simple t-shirts like this one to pair up with shorts or jeans.

The two dresses I purchased are the MISSLOOK Women’s Adjustable Spaghetti Straps Sundressand the MISSLOOK Women’s Bell Sleeve Tunic Dress. Both are so lightweight and the pastel colors are going to be so perfect to wear in Spring and Summer. You need to check these out for sure.

Last, but not least, the BEADED NATURAL CROSSBODY BAG. Ok, it’s still in the mail, but I saw it in the store and I fell in love with this masterpiece of a bag. It’s all beaded and it’s a cross body. I have a feeling it’s going to be my favorite bag this Summer. Can you believe it’s under $30?

Gingham And Faux Leather – Black And White Outfit Idea

by Kamila // April 22, 2019 // Comments off

Ellie Goulding – Lights

I always say that black and white is always a good idea. And today I did just that. The black faux leather waterfall jacket I’m wearing is so good! It’s something you can wear more in Spring than Fall because it’s so lightweight. It’s well made and I like the back details as well as the front waterfall accent.

I paired the black jacket with a pair of black and white, very classic style of gingham pants. The print is still very trendy and you can never go wrong with pants like these. They have two zippers in front, which I think is very cool and makes the pants so much more fun. Again, the fabric is very light so you can easily wear these pants in Spring and Summer.

Now, onto my earrings. You know how much I love resin style earrings and these earrings here are only $3. I’m telling you, the same style earrings are so overpriced in stores. Where I get my earrings from, the quality is the same and prices range from $2 to $5 in most cases. Don’t pay $12.99 or more for them in stores like H&M, for example. Trust me on this one! You won’t be able to tell the difference!

Color Block Windbreaker And Pink Linen Pants

by Kamila // April 16, 2019 // Comments off

Bebe Rexha – Meant to Be

This color block windbreaker jacket is one of those jackets you need for transitional weather. It’s so lightweight yet keeps you warm on mild Spring days. I love its color block pattern – so trendy this season. The fact that you put it over head is nice too because it almost looks like you’re wearing a sweatshirt. It’s a really great piece and I highly recommend it.

My pastel pink pants are linen, such a great quality and style. I absolutely love them and I know I will wear them a lot. You can style them in a casual way like I did with sneakers and a jacket, or they would look great with a denim jacket as well and even a pair of sandals in summertime. I can’t say enough good things about them.

Chain Print Cami And Yellow Corduroy Skirt – Spring Outfit Idea

Camo Utility Pants And Denim Jacket

by Kamila // April 1, 2019 // Comments off

Alan Walker – Darkside

Here is another sporty, casual look for you. The focal point of this outfit is, of course, my pants. These pants are so unique and comfortable. The fabric is very lightweight, and not the stiff kind of utility pants we’re used to seeing. Instead, they are more like joggers if you will. I love the side pockets and the fact that there is a zipper on the side. Of course the color combo is absolutely amazing too.

I paired the camo pants with an older Reebok pink hoodie purchase, but any other pink hoodie will do.

My denim jacket is everything I wanted when I was looking to replace my older one – very similar in wash and style. I needed something longer and a little bit bigger and this one is just perfect. It’s a light wash which is perfect for Spring and the length is not too short, but not too long either.

You might remember my sneakers from Bonjour Slogan Tassel T-shirt And Yellow Jeanspost. They come in different colors and are available in all sizes.
