March Favorites

Hi everyone! I'm back and ready to dive more into fashion and beauty with all of you!

Since it is now April, I am going to go over some of my favorite items and products that i used most in March for each broad category.

Hair: Herbal Essences dry shampoo
This has been a life savor for days when I simply don't have time to wash my hair. Super long and thick hair is fun to have but it can be an absolute nightmare to wash, condition, and wait fro an eternity for it to dry. This is a quick and easy remedy for days when I just need to run out of the house as quickly as possible so I won't be late for class. I like Herbal Essences. I've tried a lot of different brands and companies but man of them have a chemical smell to them. They work to stop oiliness, but it smells awful, so Herbal Essences stops oily hair AND makes it smell wonderful.

Makeup: Urban Decay Make-Up Setting Spray
This is an absolutely awesome product. There's nothing worse than mastering the perfect face in the morning, only to check it in the mirror in the afternoon and find that all of it has faded. After I finish my makeup routine, I spray this on my face, and all my eye makeup, blush, and lipstick stays in place until I take it off at night. It doesn't clog pores and it is very lightweight so it's definitely worth a try

Clothing: Cardigans
I hate Chicago weather. I hate cold. Layers are an essential for me. I am always cold and could never leave the house without a sweater. Cardigans help any outfit look more polished and put together and they keep me warm so I am not miserable in class. I have so many different types of cardigans, but I seriously couldn't live in Chicago without them.

Shoes: Oxfords
I love Oxfords for so many reasons, but I think the primary reason why they are a no-brainer, go-to shoe for me is because of their versatility and preppy look to them. They can pair with skirts, jeans, trousers, and even dresses. I like them better than sneakers because it helps give a classier and polished edge to any outfit and make an outfit go from "I look like I just rolled out and bed" to  "Comfy but still professional and clean".

Accessories: Watch
I think a good watch is an essential for anyone's overall look. Sure a cell phone can tell time, but a nice looking watch sets someone apart as professional and put-together. I hate pulling out my phone just to check time. It feels tacky to me, and having a watch is so much easier than trying to find my phone within my giant bag. My watch was a gift from my mom and I love that it is a neutral color so it goes with anything I wear. It's never too early to start practicing dressing for success.
