Summer Necessities ♡


So it's that time of year again where the heat is at an all time high and I basically want to walk around nude. But since that is socially unacceptable I have a few summer necessities that help me get through Florida's unbearable heat. This post will show you what I need during this heat and how I maintain a matte face when deep down I'm sweating up a monsoon.  










So for starters we need to break out the shorts for obvious reason. I realized the blue and black denim shorts are constantly worn during this time of year and have yet to fade. I bought a pair of colored shorts recently to add a pop of color to my wardrobe and it's very summer-y. I also purchased the hampton shirt that you see in the bottom left corner. They were 50% off , light-weight and breathable ♡   




We then go into cute bathing suits for the summer that can not only be worn by it's self but in my case a bodysuits paired with cute shorts or even some nice high-waisted pair of pants. The reason why I defiantly recommend wearing these as bodysuits is because since they're made for swim wear they're able absorb in type of body fluid or water. In our case sweat , yes I know gross, but think about when you're going to a concert or just out around town and you're wearing a normal shirt. Not only will the sweat stains show but it will smell but not with swim suits.


I live in these spandex crop tops because you can dress them up or down for summer and winter ! They're accentuate and flatter your body in every way and can be paired with anything.



Now for makeup , When I wore foundation I would switch to Tinted moisturizer for the summer because its light weight , provides a decent amount of coverage , and has SPF in it to protect your skin from the sun. I then used a setting spray that I got from ebay because I want to keep everything in place  and keep my face hydrated but not oily looking. Later I go in with waterproof mascara and liquid eyeliner because I  tend to sweat around my eye during the day which caused my mascara to drip down my eyes making me look like a hoodrat. However with the power of water proof that doesn't happen anymore and I've heard waterproof damages your lashes so what I do to prevent that is using a little scoop of vaseline and putting them on my lashes to prevent that and keep them nourished.


Have a nice day and thank you for reading.

SPRING/SUMMER H♡UL

So here is a haul of items that I wanted to break out and or purchased for spring/summer. This was all accumulated over time so don't assume I bought it all at once but without further adieu here all some items I bought with a few personal experiences with them.



So the first three items are bodysuits and ever since I bought my first bodysuit in december I have fallen in love with them all ! The green and black bodysuit are from american apparel and fit me like a gem , they're true to size so don't worry about having to go up or down a size for it to fit. The cat bodysuit was brought from lazyoaf and is so darn adorable. It also features a black cat tail on the back which I forgot to photograph but it's so cute , form fitting and can be dressed up or down. Also heads up if you want the green bodysuit from american apparel buy it quickly before they run out because they're on low stock and probably won't make them in that color anymore.



The net three items are all from american apparel and two were actually gifts. The romper was bought on black friday but I never wore it intill tonight because I was so self conscious about wearing it. However I got a lot of positive feedback from a party i attended last night and it's so cozy and you can dress it up with a nice belt and shoes to make it the perfect outfit. The next is a cat print chiffon top and a teal colored peter pan collared shirt which were both gifts because they didn't fit my friends anymore.



The last three items feature a floral top with black lace on the back that was given by a friend perfect for spring or sumer really. Then we have these adorable striped pants from american apparel that have a side zip at the ankle and are really perfect for summer (in my opinion). Then last but not least the tap shorts from american apparel and they're are just the coziest things ever. I got them in a khaki color and the have this side button and zip that just makes it more cute.



So that's all for now and i hope you enjoyed the haul and please follow me for more post!
