Outfits: Work

WOWW, reaching an all-time low in blogging productivity! Many apologies, I've been spending time enjoying the wonderful summer heat with the boy who is in Boston for one more week...and of course working harrrdd. Feels strange to have summer coming to an end and instead of returning to beer pong and shitty mixed drinks in dorm rooms I'm still going to be workin' the 8:30 to 5 and wasting my money on $9 cocktails, haa.
     Fashion-wise I've been in a bit of a rut due to the heat. I've been craving loosely, draped dresses and exposed, lacey lingerie but have absolutely NO drapey pieces in the wardrobe. Also, The zebra print booties pictured in the outfit below are being returned since I purchased the much more amazing ashish for topshop zebra-print wedge boots yesterday morning, CAN'T WAIT CAN'T WAIT!
     Thank you ALL for stopping by, I SOOOO appreciate everyone who continues to read and comment!! :D



First: Urban Outfitters dress and bodysuit. Aldo shoes.

Make-up, Video : Simple Cat-eyed Look

Thanks to the ladies who have been commenting on my eye make-up! For most of my smokey looks it's pretty simple (any dark shadow plus lots of blending!) but for my attempt to create a dramatic "cat-eye" with this outfit I decided to film a quick (crappy) tutorial for it, haa. Alsooo, for those who were asking about what I use to get my skin to "glow"...I use MAC's Mineralize Satinfinish with SPF 15 which is supposed to give that natural, dewey appearance. However, I recently switched to a more matte foundation and I'm pretty sure that my skin is just naturally "dewey" (aka shiny...especially during summer humidity, yuck).

Outfits: She Wolf

Okay, I may or may not have been weirdly entranced by Shakira's new bizarrely sexy music video...and have thus been obsessed with looking like some sort of predatorial animal for the past few days. Over the weekend I pranced out in a fringed top (worn as a skirt), some serious sandals, with cat-eyed make-up and gotten some looks (pictured below). And then proceeded to go grocery shopping yesterday evening in leopard-print jeans, and a floral gold jacket, with a somewhat teased mane of hair. I expect the boy to be super pumped about my new "she wolf/cat woman" obsession when he arrives on Monday! ;)





First: Nordstrom jacket. Urban Outfitters jeans and top. Oscar de la Renta shoes.
