Stripes + Pom Pom's

Top (24% off with shopmore!)// Necklace; J.Crew Factory sold out (similar here) // Denim similar and on sale! Exact pair here // Shoes (similar) // Handbag; Old Navy (LOVE this one) // Lipstick; Hot

I love pops of red in an outfit, its such a bold color and makes such a statement. I think it instantly elevates your outfit. Red Lipstick is also a favorite of mine, it is my favorite to wear and this bight red is my drug store favorite and a staple in my collection. 

I love the pom pom details on this striped top, I love how they really stand out against my new white jeans. I have been IN LOVE with Levi's lately, they fit me so great! I love how only one knee is distressed on this pair.

Hey guys, writing this on my flight home from DC. Dave and I had four days together which is CRAZY for us. We usually visit Dave's dad in Arizona over Dave's law school sprig break in March where we have a week together but other than that...our long distance relationship usually allows for two days together at the most. We made a decision when we decided to dive into the long distance thing that we wouldn't count the weekends but we would make the weekends count. We have an adventure every single moment we can, romantic dinners, plenty of movies and now most recently exploring a new city. 

I loved DC! I hated the heat. Oh my goodness. 90's with 90% humidity almost everyday!!! That made walking around super difficult. Also (full disclosure) I get super crabby when I'm hot. Dave will attest to this! Ha! Literally my forehead was pouring sweat in these pics...not fun. But so worth it because everywhere you go there is something new, historical or beautiful!  

I absolutely adore this black moto dress, and it will transition into fall and winter so perfectly, I wore it with open toe sandals for now but can totally incision this with tights booties and a deep red lip!

XOXO, CAIT

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!
