Fashion Friday #31: The Hills are Alive

...in Seattle when the sun comes out.

Last weekend was by far the warmest day since being here. My beautiful roommate, Jacque, and I went and spent some time in the sun. What a perfect location for Fashion Friday! So with that, I give you what I wore...

Two side braids joined in the back with bobby pins. Easy-try it!

Shirt: Anthropologie
Jeans: Vigos
Shoes: Queen Anne, Disbatch
Sunglasses: Fake Coach. That's how I roll.


Let's discuss make up and skin care.
I'm partial to a few things.  When it comes to make up, I'm real simple. So, I don't spend money on makeup. Definitely more of an investor in clothes.  Concealer, light dusting of foundation, and blush. {And if we're being honest, I'm also using bronzer right now, per my mom's advice, because apparently I don't get enough sun here or something.}
Then I do eye liner and mascara and lip gloss. That's it. I can do it in under 10 minutes!


Covergirl Concealer: under eyes, on eye lids {so your eye lids and face are the same color!}

Bare Essentials Foundation

Covergirl Blush: I always choose a brighter color because I love rosy pink cheeks (:

Bed Head Eyeliner: I love liquid eye liner because I have a lot of control. And if it doesn't come out how I want it first, I wet a Q-tip and make it perfect!

Double Lash Extend Mascara: 2 coats, brushing it on to both sides of my lashes {top and bottom}

Then at the end of the day, I wash it all off with my favorite product of all time: Dermalogica

I used to have blotchy skin and it's been so clear ever since I started using the face wash {daily}, scrub {3 times a week}, and mask {2 times a week}.  Amazing.  Needless to say, I highly recommend it!

What about you? What do you use?

And...how's the weather in your neck of the woods? Hope you all have a tornado-free weekend (:

PS. The sweet Jenna highlighted Meadow boutique! Stop by and say hello (:
