Easter Essentials


Easter has always been one of my favorite holidays! I have so many fond memories with my family.  After church we would have brunch at a local country club that brought in petting zoo animals, so after eating you could go on the patio and play with cute bunny rabbits and baby sheep.  It was a tradition and after moving to the city last year, Easter is just not quite the same.  Not only for the lack of petting zoos in the area, but also because I am so far from my family and don't get time off to travel home.  Luckily I have a few beauty essentials to help get me in the Spring mood. They are perfect for an Easter brunch with friends! 

Topshop Lipstick - To be honest, I bought this lipstick because of the cute packaging.  But I also love the vibrant pink color, y'all know I can't resist a bold lip! The lipstick is actually great quality and I've found that the color lasts for a decent amount of time.  It goes on a bit matte so I typically put a little clear gloss over it.  Pictured is the color "Brighton Rock" which doesn't seem to be available anymore - but the link goes to a similar hot pink shade, "Lips in Legend" that is very close to mine! 

Essie Nail Polish - "Bikini So Teeny" is one of my all time favorite Essie colors! The pretty light blue color instantly lets me know it's Spring! And it has just the right amount of shimmer to it. This is a color I can rock now and all through summer!


Batiste Dry Shampoo - I looooove dry shampoo! Batiste is one of my favorites, I like the original scent but they have several other options! It's perfect for days you need to add a little oomph to your 'do or for lazy Sunday mornings.  I've also found it really helps make my curls last throughout the day! 


Roses de Chloe Perfume - I got this perfume for Christmas and it is one of my new favorites! The light scent smells like a beautiful bouquet of roses and easy to transition from day to night.  With notes of fresh cut roses, magnolia, and amber, it's the perfect Spring scent - everyone will be asking what you're wearing!

Lust List

It’s been a while since my last lust list! Shopping is a weakness of mine, I love to browse and check out all of the new products (who doesn’t?) To keep myself from going into debt, I will write down things I am obsessed with and save them for birthday or Christmas presents (that way when family members ask I can give them an idea of things I would love!) Or, even better, wait until they go on sale! Here are some things I’ve been lusting over lately.


J Crew Wool Fedora - I got a grey floppy wool hat in the beginning of the season at Anthropologie and I am obsessed with it! Since then I find myself eyeing every hat I see! I love this black one at J Crew, it’s so cute and perfect for Fall/Winter months when it’s too cold to function but you still want to look cute (story of my life, ugh)


Mermaids Don't Do Homework Embroidered T-Shirt - I have been in love with this t-shirt since I saw it on Pinterest.  I love the saying and think it is so cute! I don’t normally shop at Brandy Melville just because the clothes they carry aren’t totally my style, but I am so tempted to pick this up next time I am in SoHo!


J Crew Embellished Sweatshirt - Another J Crew option (are you surprised?) This sweatshirt is amazing, and according to my mom looks like something I would love – maybe that’s why it’s on my Lust List! I love the embellishments. I am always a fan of a “fancy” sweatshirt!


Anthropologie Leopop Flared Dress - I recently saw this dress online and fell in love! Such a cute, simple dress that still has an impact! I am excited to check it out in person and see how it looks when it’s on!

What have you been lusting over lately?
