wedding style. done easy.

I don't know if I've shared this yet! But here are my suggestions for a day vs. night wedding. Let's face it - keeping it simple is the way to go! Here is all the shopping info! 

{what i'm wearing} tory burch flip flops

I just picked up these babies from  ShopBop . They are the perfect flip flops.  Tory Burch  never disappoints. I did have to go up one size (to a 9) and they run a bit narrow and don't come in half sizes ( I wear an 8 in the Reva), so if you have "fat foot" like my sister (hi emme!) then these aren't for you.

{summer style} cowboy boots

I don't feel ashamed to admit that Taylor Swift made my heart pitter patter with her stylish pairing of cowboy boots and anything cute. One of my friends Mia wears them and makes them look adorable with everything, and my friend Clare texted me asking where to get a pair. My response, "my ex works at the place that made Taylor's..." So I had to do a little digging, I'm definitely not an expert on this topic! I'm particularly fond of the shabby/boho & chic/preppy mixed together in a non-country way and you can see Nicole Richie pulls it off effortlessly below. Finding a classic pair of boots can be a feat, so I pulled some of my favorites. Standing out for me are the bottom pair by Steve Madden, they are budget friendly, and will never go out of style!

CLOSED {eclos skin care} #EclosBeauty

I'm turning 26 in September, and you know what that means, I'm obviously getting older. When  éclos Skin Care  sent me their anti-aging starter skit I coldn't have been more thrilled! I loved the fact that I was using stem cells from apples and not from other "weird" sources. Did you know some anti-aging regimes actually have placenta in them? EW!  éclos Skin Care  is natural, nourishing, and the reuts are fantastic! Since I'm still young enough to not have that many fine lines and wrinkles I didn't note a huge improvement overall, but I did notice that my skin became more even and brigther!  All of the products have apple stem cells, " Researchers have found that Plant Stem Cells extracted from a rare  Swiss apple, (Uttwiler Spätlauber), show tremendous ability to stimulate skin stem cells, encouraging aging skin to behave like younger skin." via  éclos Skin Care The products I sampled were: Facial Cleanser - Skin Prep: This was one of my...

{max}out.

I haven't stopped wearing maxi dresses since it hit 75 degrees. They are nearly impossible to style wrong. You can go with sleek and futuristic or more down to earth - i love both styles!  My mom was in town a few weeks ago helping Adam and I move into our new house (it's starting to feel like a home - all four floors of it)! She picked me up this maxi dress at Target - the style, price, black and tan stripes - I was sold! I paired it out for Rochester, Minnesota's event of the Summer Thursdays on First & 3rd. It's a street festival that happens every Thursday until the end of stummer - one of the best perks of living in "Med City". Adam and I took Henry, it was his first big social event, and he handled it like a gentleman. Rubbing noses politely with other dogs, schmoozing with toddlers, and letting most of the population of Rochester pet him. What I'm wearing that you can't see: Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC Bag, Michael Kors Sandals, T...
