Happy Tuesday! Hows everyone’s week going so far? It actually SNOWED in Chicago this weekend but today we’re supposed to get to 60 degrees! I’ve definitely had to get creative with my outfits lately since we’re currently in that transitional phase.
I’m always trying something new, so I thought it’d be fun to start a new series titled “On Repeat” (see what I did there?) where I mention my current favorites! Sometimes I have a lot of stuff to mention but they’re miscellaneous and all don’t fit in the same category, so it doesn’t require a standalone blog post. I figured a round up post of what’s been in rotation lately would work better. Let me know what you think about this idea!
Here’s what’s been On Repeat the past few weeks:
CAMO Joggers
Sweater & Joggers: Nordstrom Rack
Backpack Purse: Target (exact one here)
Sunglasses: Quay Australia
I’ve shared my love for camo on here before. The latest addition? These camo joggers! I’ve been wanting camo pants for awhile now, but the only ones I see are in the skinny jeans style. With such a busy print, I think it’d be a bit much if it were skin tight. Going for a baggier fit helps it look a little more “street style” and less like a teenager in leggings. I got these at Nordstrom Rack – see a similar one here. There’s a cute ripped knee version one at Express too!
Quay Sunglasses in High Key
I’m obsessed with aviator sunglasses, and this style is everything I’d want and more! These are in the style “High Key” in the color “Blk/Fade.” These are more affordable than my usual Ray Ban picks and hey, if they’re good enough for J.LO, they’re good enough for me! These are pretty oversize, so they’re also available in a “mini” size if your head is smaller! (LOL!) I’m wearing the regular size in these outfit photos.
Portable Steamer
OK this little guy has changed my life ya’ll! I refuse to buy an ironing board because it takes up so much unnecessary space and isn’t attractive. I NEVER iron my clothes because I don’t enjoy doing it, and I hate pulling out so many darn supplies to get the job done. (Which results in me dealing with wrinkled shirts 99% of the time, ha!) I would only iron seriously once or twice a year, but now I’m finding excuses to iron with this steamer! It’s actually fun and satisfying to see the wrinkles disappear so fast. (Also small enough for travel!) I’ve officially thrown out my iron and couldn’t be happier.
Note: this size is only enough to iron about 1-2 articles of clothing before you have to refill the water.
10 Ft charger
Don’t you get tired of leaning over one side of your bed so you can still be attached to your charger? WELL, I GOT TIRED. So I bought a 10ft long charger. Is it kinda ridiculous? Yes. Is it also the best $15 I ever spent? Absolutely.
Smashbox Primerizer
A Primer and a Moisturizer in one = the Smashbox Primerizer. I purchased this after watching Kathleen Lights talk about it on her YouTube Channel. I usually love every product she suggests because she has dry skin like me. (Tip: Follow beauty gurus that have your same skin type! You’ll connect more with their recommendations!) This is especially great for those mornings when I don’t have much time to get ready, as this allows me to skip the moisturizer. It makes my skin look great under any foundation!
L’Oréal Infallible 24H Fresh Wear Foundation
You guys, I LOVE this Foundation! It’s got a beautiful satin finish that lasts all day, while also giving the skin some glow! I’m wearing it in the photo below. There’s a reason its a hot topic on YouTube beauty channels right now!
Smooth Sexy Hair Smooth & Seal Spray
A quick spritz of these after I’m done styling my hair smooths and adds shine. Apparently its great for frizzy hair. I can’t speak to that yet, but what I can say is that my hair just looks silkier when I use it. I like to spray on my dry ends.
Laneige Lip Mask
I’ve been using this religiously all winter and it will probably continue on into Spring! I talked more about it in this post.
Twenty One Lip Kit, Kylie Cosmetics
I’ve been wearing this lipstick a lot these past few weeks. It’s a great color to kick off Spring with. It was one of my picks for my V-day lip options. A few of you DM’ed me on Instagram and told me it was your favorite shade and I agree with you! I just posted this same pic rocking this color on my Instagram this week!
That’s all folks! What do you think about this new “On Repeat” series? What other topics would you like to see on here?
