Black Lace and Kate Spade

I have one last set of photos from before I cut my hair so I decided to post them as my Friday post instead of as a Stylish Sunday’s Post

My favorite Aunt got married on June 21st and I really liked the dress she picked for me to wear.

Dress: Asos Skater Dress in Daisy Lace, Belt: Kate Spade Bow Belt, Shoes: Sam Edelman Calypso Quilted Flats (Similar), Bag: Kate Spade Cove Street Irini (Similar)

I absolutely love this dress, without the belt it’s very 90’s and I plan on pairing it with a plaid shirt and some knee socks and keds this fall.

On My Face: Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua in B10, Nars Creamy Radiant Concealer in Chantilly, Makeup Forever HD Powder in Translucent, Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in Luminous Flush, The Balm Highlighter in Mary Lou Manizer, Marc Jacobs The Lolita Palette, YSL Shocking Mascara, Urban Decay Eyeliner in Bourbon and Dior Addict Lipstick in Dior Kiss

I curled my hair with a large 1 1/4th curling iron.

Nails: Butter London Scandal

And here’s my favorite Aunt and I after the ceremony:

It was wonderful seeing someone I’ve always looked up to get married to an awesome guy. And how gorgeous was her dress? Red’s her favorite color and I love that she bucked the trend of wearing white and instead wore what made her happy.

Have you been to any wedding’s recently? What did you wear?

What’s In My Kate Spade Bag

My husband got me the Kate Spade Cove Street Irini for Valentines Day last year, and I decided it’s time to show you what’s in my bag.

This is actually a much smaller bag than what I normally carry so it’s taken me a while to figure out exactly what I need and don’t need.

I have my Coach Double Zip Wristlet,Elizabeth and James Nirvana, 2 bookmarks, Madewell Drifter Sunglass, a random piece of Trident Gum from my Aunts Wedding, Moleskin Notebook and Pen, a L’Occitane makeup bag, compact mirror that was a gift from a friend and a Bath and Body Works Pocket Bac.

In the L’Occitane bag I carry my Hourglass Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipstick in Rose, Hourglass Extreme Sheen Lip Glosses in Truth and Lush, YSL Gloss Volupté in Grenade Pépite, YSL Volupté Sheer Candy Glossy Balm in Cool Guava and a Victoria’s Secret Mini in Victoria.

It’s amazing to be able to carry around so little. If I need to I can fit a book inside, but I only carry a book with me if I’m going to be waiting for a long period of time.

What are your must haves in your bag?

I’m pretty sure I only wore this to the Grocery, and then to lay around and read, because that’s pretty much how I spend all of my time. This post is going up late because some very dear friends got married on Saturday and I spent all of Sunday recouping from the festivities.

Stylish Sundays: Valentine

Since Friday was Valentines day, I thought I’d show you what I wore when we went out to dinner to celebrate, and what my present that I hinted about on instagram is.

First my present since I’m just dying over it still:

It’s the Kate Spade Cove Street Irini, and it’s absolutely perfect. I am obsessed with Kate Spade and have wanted a K.S. Purse for quite sometime. Since my husband noticed I’ve just been grabbing my wallet when I go out lately, he decided that this one would be perfect because it’s small and it’s a crossbody.

I love the lining because it’s brightly colored and makes grabbing anything an absolute breeze, which isn’t a problem right now because my wallet takes up most of the space, I need to get a smaller wallet, and I’ve already picked out a couple I’m in love with.

This is honestly the most perfect present I could ever ask for.

To dinner I wore:

V.S. Pink Long Sleeve Top, The Limited Tweed Mini, Hue Opaque Black Tights, Sam Edelman Calypso Flats in Black, Kate Spade Cove Street Irini Bag

Kate Spade Patent Bow Belt

Kate Spade Square Stud Earrings and Skinny Mini Necklace.

On My Face: Nars Sheer Glow, Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer, YSL Shocking Mascara, Caudalie Lip Balm, The Balm Frat Boy, The Balm Mary-Lou Manizer, The Balm Hot Mama worn as shadow, Lancome Brown Eyeliner, Lancome Metallic Taupe shadow

All said it was a lovely day. What did you do for Valentines?
