Outfit details: Blouse | Pants | Belt (similar) | Bag | Sandals | Sunglasses | Necklace (code: MAREE15)

1. I just ran out of my favorite laundry pods. I like to switch up the scent each time so I plan to order the Italian Bergamot this time! (use code: MAREE15 to save)

2. What a gorgeous bracelet! I love the structural element to it though it is still quite small and delicate looking on the wrist.

3. If you want an alternative to a linen shirt dress, this one comes in a lightweight jersey material which would be great for the summer heat.

4. I saw someone unboxing this bag on Tiktok and thought it was so chic! It looks somewhat meh online but in person it was a stunner!!!

5. I finally upgraded my phone after manyyy years. I have only ordered one new phone case so I think I may take advantage of Baublebar’s sale and order one of their custom cases. I love all the different color options + you can personalize it!

6. This new setting powder claims 12-hr oil control. I am already a fan of so many of their complexion products (this concealer is a dream for mature eyes) so I’m really intrigued by this new launch.

7. A casual summer necklace to wear with a simple tee and jeans. I ordered it in gold and can’t wait to get it! (use code: MAREE20 to save)

8. I LOVE the look of this beaded tote. And the price point is SO good!

9. A striped mini dress is always a summer classic.

10. Terry cloth pieces are everywhere this summer. This cute dress is perfect to wear to the beach and then out to dinner.

11. I have to wash my makeup brushes tonight (truly the absolute worst but necessary) and realized I have not shared the brush cleanser that I use. I prefer a solid so this is the one I repurchase time and time again.

12. These woven flat sandals are currently on my wish list. They are so chic!!!

10 Best Summer Sandals

| ,

While sandal trends come and go each summer, I like to invest in classic styles that I can wear year after year. Here are 10 of the best summer sandals to add to your closet!

10 Best Summer Sandals

Sezane Ezra Sandals

These are still a simple neutral sandal but the braided rope detail with the embellished stone on the front strap really elevate the entire look!

Dolce Vita Mylee Light Tan Leather Heels

These sandals check all the boxes for me as the perfect spring/summer heeled sandal. Casual enough to dress down but embellished enough to dress up for special occasions. Neutral so they look great with any outfit and a low, walkable heel.

Margaux Selene Flat Sandals

A classic pair of leather sandals to wear with linen trousers or midi dresses.

Schutz Elsha Sandals

A simple thong sandal that is easy to to dress up or down.

Madewell x Melissa Jelly Flip Flops

Jelly sandals have been gaining popularity over the past few years. The trend will be going strong again this summer but if you aren’t ready to commit to a full jelly sandal, this could be a great colorful option.

Tony Bianco Caprice Heels

The simplicity of these sandals is what makes them so popular. I have worn them with jeans and with dresses – they look great with both looks. If you want a great summer wedding guest sandal to wear over and over, get these in whatever neutral color you think you would wear the most. They look amazing dressed up and won’t compete with your dress.

Soludos Marseille Wedges (discount code: MAREE20)

Platform espadrilles wedges are a summer shoe classic. The wedge isn’t too high so they are great to add a bit of height while still being able to walk around in.

Larroude Vivi Lucite Clear Mules

I own and love these clear sandals. They go with any outfit because of all the clear details + they are incredibly comfortable!

M.Gemi The Lucia Sandals

Metallics are a neutral so they heeled slide sandals are as versatile as a pair of brown or white sandals. The added shine and texture will bring so much more style to your outfit.

Freda Salvador Sera Fisherman Sandals

Fisherman sandals are not for everyone but if you love the style, Freda Salvador makes some of the best. This version has a mesh strap which makes them look a bit less chunky on the foot because you will be able to see through the straps.

The Best Shoes That Go With Any Summer Outfit

, |

The clear sandal trend took off a few years ago and I am so grateful that it did! Clear sandals have been the answer to so many of my summer outfit shoe problems. I tend to wear more color in the spring and summer but am not going to invest in sandals of all different colors to go with each outfit. Neutrals are fine but even then I have to decide which shades will go with the most looks.

Anti-Aging Body Care Products I Use Regularly

, |

I can no longer treat the skin on my body with scented body creams and frilly body lotions. I need to add in targeted treatments with ingredients that will help to address emerging concerns like crepiness, dullness, discoloration and loss of elasticity. I’ve been testing out a handful of body care products to see which will offer the best results. I have finally landed on a selection of formulations + devices that are helping to improve the skin on my body rather than just offer surface level results. Here are my current favorite anti-aging body care products.

11 Best Tinted Lip Balms

, |

If there is one makeup product I have in abundance, it’s lip products. Lipsticks, lip glosses, tinted lip balms, lip oils – I love them all. And this year has been the year of the tinted lip balm! So many new ones have been released and more colors have been released in old favorites. Even though I like wearing a full face of makeup nearly every day, I love the idea of a moisturizing lip balm with a bit of tint to wear either alone or layered over another lip product.

Styling a Closet Staple: 6 Outfits With A Denim Jacket

|

A denim jacket is a staple in my closet. They can easily be styled for different seasons, with various outfits, and for multiple occasions. The right denim jacket can instantly make an outfit feel more balanced, relaxed, and styled without looking overdone. But with the wrong denim jacket, an outfit can easily feel outdated or bulky when proportions, washes, or layering pieces do not work together. In today’s post, I’ll be sharing a round up of outfits that you can wear with denim jackets.
