Summer is almost here and if you're anything like me then you want to find products that give you a bronzed glow to make you feel like you just came back from a tropical vacation. When in reality you just applied a few products in the morning and that's it!

I've been experimenting with the Tan-Luxe the body self tan drops for at least a month now and I have nothing but good things to say! If you want to look like a tan goddess but with minimal effort then this is for you! I say minimal effort because all I do is mix in 3-5 drops (per body part) into my moisturizer and apply it in circular motions making sure to blend well into knees, wrists, ankles, etc. Then I hop into bed and wake up the next morning with a gorgeous and natural tan. I've also used these drops on my face with no problems but they do make a version specifically for the face. I would love to try the sleep oil and the water next!
Reasons why I love it:
- customizable - the more drops you use, the deeper the tan
- looks natural - people don't believe me when I tell them it's not a real tan
- minimal self-tan smell - it does have a smell but it's nothing unbearable and being able to mix it with my vanilla + patchoulli body butter from b&bw makes it better
- fades naturally and lasts about a week
- can be mixed into oil, cream or lotion
- no staining clothes or bed sheets
- enriched with raspberry seed oil, vitamin E and cellutone complex which helps firm and tone skin
- their branding is perfect - you guys should know I'm a sucker for beautiful branding
Price: $59 | buy it at Ulta or Bloomingdales
Next product you need in your beauty arsenal this summer is the Bali Body shimmering body oil. I saw this product all over instagram and needed to get my hands on it! If you're not familiar with Bali Body, they make tanning oils to use when you lay out in the sun and other skin care goodies. Their shimmering body oil is a very shimmery oil that instantly gives your skin a glow and bronze tint. It looks gorgeous on the collarbones, shoulders or any other area that you want to to make stand out.
Why I love it:
- smells delicious - think beachy coconut smell but not overpowering at all
- made with natural good for you oils like coconut, jojoba, and olive
- small enough to throw into your beach bag
- the shimmer + tint really compliment any summer tan
Price: $29.95 | buy it on the Bali Body website
If you've ever wondered what to wear to the farmer's market then I've got you covered! For me, comfort is always key but even more so when going shopping at the farmer's market. Think flowy dresses, denim shorts, oversized tees + button ups, stripes, or overalls. No need to get too dressed up. I wore this adorable floral + dotted top ( it's only $9 right now!!) with a pair of Levi's shorts of course. As for shoes, any comfy sandal will do. I wore these and I can't recommend them enough! They are comfy enough to wear all day but look so chic - they're a great dupe for the Hermes oran sandal.
Don't forget to take a cute straw tote bag with you to carry all your finds in. This one and this one are both under $50. Net bags are also a good choice to carry all your produce in like this one from Amazon. Need more inspiration? Take a look at what my friend Kat wore or browse through Pinterest!

Happy almost weekend! I'm back wearing my favorite denim shorts - you'll probably be seeing a lot more outfits with these because I just can't stop wearing them...so apologies in advance haha. I love how sheer cotton/linen tops look tucked into shorts so I tried it for myself with an old H&M top. The result is casual chic! By the way, if you need a good bra for sheer tops I highly recommend this one. It's under $20 and re-usable. I wore it for these pictures and it's practically invisible.
It's payday so I'm really in the mood to shop so expect some shopping/inspiration posts soon!

Earlier this year I did another Warby Parker home try-on. I never ended up posting the photos on here because I didn't get my glasses from them but I know my last home try-on helped a lot of you guys out so I figured I should post them anyways.
The main reason I wanted to do the home try on is that I fell in love with their Eugene glasses in the rose crystal. They're just so beautiful...I have no words. I needed to know how I looked with a pair of clear frames so I went ahead and filled up my box with 4 other styles. Warby Parker has the most stylish collection of eyeglasses so it was hard to narrow down but I did it!
The Eugenes were totally my aesthetic! They photograph beautifully... *me thinking of all the cute flat lays I could create* And they made me feel so chic! But I wasn't sure they'd be good for everyday wear and I kinda feel like they looked big on me. **Just realized they carry a smaller version of this style!!** If I could have multiple pairs of eyeglasses these would definitely make it into my collection. That's what I love about the home try on, you can try it before you commit!
What do you guys think? Have you ever tried glasses from Warby Parker?
Let me introduce you guys to Mejuri, your new favorite jewelry brand. They specialize in luxurious everyday jewelry with fair pricing. I first heard about them some years ago but it wasn't until recently that I decided to try out a couple of their pieces. I love buying jewelry from Forever 21 and H&M (and I still will) as much as the next girl but after a while, I start getting tired of it turning strange colors and smelling weird. So I decided it was time to invest in jewelry that could stand up to everyday wear.
I ended up going with the star signet ring and the leo necklace, both of which are under $100 and look absolutely gorgeous. They came in a cute little white box wrapped in black ribbon and they also included two little velvet jewelry bags. I'm o b s e s s e d guys! They feel so well made and luxurious but I didn't have to spend hundreds of dollars. Now I can spend all the money I saved on some cute summer tops! haha just kidding. I'm so happy I finally bought some of their jewelry though because they are honestly so beautiful. Now the problem is my wishlist is growing too long... This necklace is calling my name! :)
Let me know in the comments if you own any pieces from Mejuri or want to try them! I'd love to know your thoughts.
Thanks for reading! xx

I just got these Levi's 501 shorts in last week and I'm in love! So naturally, I had to come on here to share them with you all. They are the perfect everyday wash and have just the right amount of distressing. Denim shorts are a summer staple for me so I'm always looking for the best in terms of style, quality, and price. These hit all those checkmarks and more! Next on my wishlist is this pair (you guys loved them over on Insta stories).
Let's talk about sizing. I find that these fit true to size like all of my other Levi's. I got my regular size and they fit really well. I will say that if you want them to fit a little looser or aren't sure which size to go with then just size up one. Also, keep in mind that these don't really stretch.
P.S. Don't forget to follow me on Instagram for daily updates!
Thanks for reading! Xx
