Bold & Bright

Coat (mine is super old but here is another similar) // Scarf // Denim // Cardigan // Striped Top // Shoes (similar here & here) // Handbag // Lipstick; Le Fuschsia

The fog has been relentless in Milwaukee for the past week. I had to throw on some bight colors to try to break away from the gloominess! I love this kelly green cardigan for spring transition and even into the summer. I love kelly green with navy and cannot wait to pair this with a navy and white striped skirt or dress! This striped top one of my new favorite items. I love the contrasting stripe ruffle trim down the front, its perfect for work or play!

I have a short work week this week as I am taking off Friday to head to Minneapolis to pick up my Wedding Dress! It was not supposed to be ready until March but it is here early and I cannot even wait to try it on again! 

XOXO,

Cold Shoulder Holiday Top

Cold Shoulder Top // Scarf (similar) // Black Ripped Jeans // Handbag (similar) // Leopard Heels (similar) // Lipstick; Le Rouge 

I love a pop of red for the Holidays. It's not a color I wear a lot but I love how much it stands out. I chose a red gown for our engagement pictures because of how much red stands out in photographs. This would be a great top to wear for any holiday pictures! 

If the cold shoulder isn't your thing, but still love the festive look for the holidays I also love this top.

P.S I've linked tons of holiday plaid scarves below. :)

XOXO,

White Lace Romper

White Lace Romper // Neutral Wedges (DV from Target not online similar here) // White Clutch (Similar and to DIE for) // Red Lipstick; Le Rouge // Cluster Stud Earrings

There is always that one piece that you fall in love with every single season. This has got to be the item for my summer wardrobe....I would wear it out every single weekend if I could! I love the eyelash lace, the contrast of the lace with the lining and I love the wrap front!! It would be such a fun outfit for a bachelorette party!

Winter Date Night

Coat // Vest // Bow Top // Leggings (Similar) // Booties // Chanel (similar) // Lipstick: Le Rouge

Ok…fine. It was far from Winter in DC on Friday when I wore this outfit. But it did get super chilly at night so this oversized furry vest was so perfect. Dave and I went to Ping Pong Dim Sum for dinner and tried so many yummy things. We love love love to try new restaurants and new foods! We got moichi for dessert and I was in heaven, if you have never tried this delicious asian dessert please do yourself a favor and do so!

I just bought these pointy toe suede booties on sale and I absolutely adore them, they are already proving to be a closet MVP. They are amazing with my work wardrobe and I already have three outfits planned for the holiday season with these wedges as the perfect detail.

Leather Pocket Shift Dress

Dress // Necklace // Tote // Heels (similar here & would die to have these!) // Sunnies ( on sale for $5) // Lipcolor: Rose Intime

GUYSSSSS...I got a major haircut. I am loving it right now because it feels so healthy and thick...but I know I will probably still wear my extensions from time to time because I love to change things up.

Lets talk about this dress...it is the perfect item to transition into fall with...and it's currently on sale!! I wear my leopard heels all.the.time. They are such a fun pattern to throw in with so many different outfits. I have linked up a few options below!

I am heading to DC tonight to visit Dave for the first time in his new city. Follow along on snapchat: Cait christy to see our adventures this weekend!

Trend I'm Loving; YELLOW

Top: Gucci (budget friendly version here) // Skirt:J.Crew // Flats: J.Crew // Lipstick: YSL // Watch: Tory Burch // Handbag: Rebecca Minkoff

I have been crazy about all the yellow/mustard tones I have been seeing in stores for fall. Yellow is such a great way to add some brightness to the otherwise more dull tones fall brings. This skirt will also be great with a fun printed top!

Six Lipsticks every girl should own

From top left to bottom right; 

MAC Ruby Woo // YSL Rose InTime // MAC Pink Nouveau // MAC Impassioned 

// Cover Girl Hot 305 // YSL Le Fuchsia

I am an absolute lipstick junkie. I love the power lipstick has over your look, how it can brighten your complexion and add an entirely new element to your look. It is my absolute favorite accessory and one I rarely go a day without wearing. 

The Classic color every girl should own;

I live for a classic red lip. I would wear it everyday and even to the gym if I could. I'm obsessed. I have two favorite reds at very different price points. I love my +MAC Cosmetics Ruby woo for a matte finish, the color is bold and you get a retro look that stays in place. What I don't like about matte lipsticks in general is that they do not glide on, it doesn't feel great to run this lipstick over your lips. BUT we do it for the look. My favorite and only drug store lipstick I have ever fallen for is this +COVERGIRL red, I own three tubes because I can never be without it. It is the perfect red for my skin tone, looks great with blue eyes and I swear it makes my teeth look pearly white. 

 The Fun color every girl should own;

 For a bright party look I absolutely love Mac Impassioned, its a bright coral that is an instant mood lifter. I wear this most weekends!

 The Girly Color every girl should own;

MACS Pink Nouveau is pretty close to Barbie Pink and looks amazing with a smokey eye. This is a basic pink you should have in your collection

The Bold Color every girl should own;

A bold lip is all the rage right now and everyone should try it. Le Fuchsia is a super bright and bold pink and I personally love the formula of +Yves Saint Laurent lipsticks. They are so smooth, moisturizing and SUPER pigmented.

 The Carefree color every girl should own;

I am so so so crazy about this lipcolor. It reminds me of a balm, gloss, lipstick in one. It is not that long lasting but is super easy to reapply. No mirror needed. I always have this color in my bag because it is easy to throw on while out and about running errands. The best part is the taste/smell of this one.....Its OH so amazing!

XOXO, CAIT

If I am missing any seriously holla at yo girl! I always always always want to hear about new lipsticks!

Scallop Trim Dress

Dress: J.Crew (similar here in all sizes) // Vest: Target old (similar) // Necklace // Wedges // Tote // Sunnies // Lipstick: Le Fuchsia

I love the scallop trim on this dress, its the perfect black shift dress with a little bit of character. I just purchased this skirt that also has the scalloped trim and cannot wait to wear it! I also had this outfit on orginally with these leopard print heels but spilled triple sec all over them in a trip from my car to my apartment so they I am photographed in my favorite steve madden wedge!

Scentbird Perfume

Today I want to talk to you all about one of my new favorite subscriptions. There are so many different subscriptions out there and I've tried so many of them. Scentbird has recently become one of my favorites. I love having many different scents but perfumes tend to be very expensive so trying new ones doesn't happen as frequently as I would like. Scentbird is amazing because you get a new scent every single month! Versace, Jimmy Choo, Marc Jacobs!
