My 1st Delco Beautorial: Ooh La La!

Bonjour! Sorry it's been  a while since I last posted!

I was feeling very French inspired today! It could have just been because my sweater says "ooh la la" on it, or the fact that I've been randomly craving french macarons for the past 24 hours.. Who knows!

On my way home from work I made a quick detour to Crêperie Béchamel in Wayne to pick up some macarons! Randomly getting French macarons on a Thursday... Who do I think I am Blair Waldorf? In my defense, it's almost the weekend and I've made it this far in the week without oversleeping for work a single day, so like the saying goes "Treat yoself!"

It just so happens I recently purchased three of the NYX macaron lippies and I've been dying to try them out. This season is all about rocking unusual and bold lip colors so I wanted to try 3 out of the ordinary shades! I bought the colors Rose (Barbie pink), Earl Grey (light blue), and Pistachio (pastel green). So to go along with my French themed Thursday, I decided to test out the lipsticks as I snacked on pink macarons. I love them all, they're so pigmented and such fun cool shades! 

I feel like you have to keep your eye makeup very understated with these bold lip colors. The colors are so bright and highly pigmented so let them steal the show and be the main focus of this look. They're perfect colors for if you're feeling a bit daring this Easter and want a high bright pastel lip color to amp up your easter dress!

To do the simple eye look I used the Lorac Gold Unzipped palette. I put the shade "Uninhibited" all over my lid, highlighted under my brow and the inner corners of my eye with "Unlocked," and put "Unleashed" in the crease.

Then I used my new mascara obsession: Too Faced "Better Than Sex" mascara! This makes my lashes super long and full and it stays all day without fall out or smudges! I'm totes in love! Then I lined my water line with a black eyeliner.

Then here came the fun part... The macaron lippies!!!:

First is the shade Rose:
The matching pink macaron def gave this look a certain Je ne sais quois, don't ya think?;) 

Next is Earl Grey:
Why not get into the outlandish sweeet lip look and throw on a cute donut headband to go with it?!

Last one is Pistachio:
This green was very psychedelic!!! (JK I'm just so ready for summer so I can rock these sick new sunnies) It would be perfect for Saint Patrick's Day or just when you wanna look funky! 

There you have it, I hope you enjoyed my very first Delco Beautorial! It will be the first of many!

Whether you're in Paris, London, New York or just strolling around good ole Delco, don't ever be afraid to take risks and just have fun with your makeup! If you like it, wear it!:)

Thanks for reading! XOXO

World Oceans Day 2017!

Today June 8th, is World Oceans Day, celebrating and raising awareness for my favorite place on earth. I could live at the beach. There is just something about the sun as my blanket, laying in the warm sand, listening to the waves crash, and smelling the salt air, that feels like home. I am my happiest and most tranquil when I am on the beach with my feet in the ocean. There is no greater bliss. My heart belongs to the sea. Today is an important day to me, because of course I want to keep my favorite place in tip-top shape 😁 The theme of this year's world oceans day is "Our Ocean, Our Future." Today is a great day to help raise awareness to others and remind them that we need to take care and sustain our home, the earth, and keep our oceans clean. If we all make small changes, and become more conscious, it will all add up and make a difference and help save our magnificent oceans and all of the beautiful creatures living in them.  Oceans are one of nat...

Perfect Pool Day Essentials!

Summertime and the livin is easy! With a high of 80 degrees and no schedule for the day, I decided to lounge poolside with my main girl Pearl. It was the perfect day of resting and relaxation! Instead of working in the office, I got to work on my tan. My soul was at ease and my mind was clear, as the sunshine beamed down on my face all day long:) See, not all Mondays are awful! Some of my essentials for the perfect pool day are: 1. A cute beach bag to carry all my items 2. A fun colorful pair of sunnies 3. My Red Stojo Cup - Makes staying hydrated so easy.

Battle Of The Seasons: Team Summer or Team Fall?

    As I laid by the pool today soaking up the last rays of the summer, it really began to sink in how the sunny warm days are now getting limited! Fall is coming quicker than we think! Most people are excited for the change of weather, the crunchy leaves, hot chocolate, pumpkins, and hoodies. I'm a summer girl at heart, so it's such a drag that its officially coming to a close. You can find me in class daydreaming about laying on the beach with the salt air blowing in my hair. I'm laying out as much as I can to quick lock in a dark tan before I have to bundle up for the chilly weather. There is just something peaceful and relaxing about laying by the water with the sun beating down on your skin! I'm not ready to put away the flip flops and take out the Uggs just yet!     Hopefully we will have a beautiful Labor Day with the sun shining tomorrow! Enjoy these last days of hot summer weather, poolside with a tropical drink while they last because before you know it w...
