Summer Style & Relaxation


I’ve been gone for a few days now because of my crazy new job. I am working a night shift position (from 6 pm until 3 am), so my sleeping patterns have been a bit off. I’m starting to get in the swing of things and thought I would share my first ever OOTD post with you—I’m not too keen on having my picture taken, but I figured I have to just jump in and start sometime!

Last Saturday evening I didn’t have much to do, so I spent some time with my family. We went out to eat, and it was nice having us all together after being apart while I was at college for so long. Even though it’s summer, it was a bit chilly outside, so I paired my new dress from Forever 21 with tights and my black oxfords. Black isn’t your typical color for summer, but I find that it looks classic year round. I think this ensemble was simple and sleek. I wore it once while at college, and it’s something I look forward to wearing again next fall.



Dress: Forever 21
Shoes: DSW

I kept my makeup basic since I didn’t have much time to get ready. I used a bit of concealer and powder with a swipe of eyeliner on my upper lid and mascara to finish it off.

I got home later that evening and used my bath bomb from LUSH. I did a little review of my LUSH products earlier (to read it click here), and I mentioned that I hadn’t actually tried the bath bomb yet. My bathtub isn’t very big, so I actually cut it in half and used only part of it. I love the way it seemed to fizz in my tub and it smelled sooo good. If you haven’t given one a try, I definitely recommend you do!

I’m hoping to post again soon. Thanks for dealing with my hectic schedule and random posting.

Until next time,

  4. So gorgeous! That's my routine when I do basic makeup too (concealer, powder, eyeliner, mascara) - it can look very simple but cute! Your dress is so pretty!
