Como Se?

Como Se Llama Adorable Llama Tank Top

I'm reaaally excited about the new Como Se tanks that just arrived over on Ramey Rhodes. Y'all get it? #Punny

This is my favorite tee style we've done so far; it's a little bit flowy at the bottom, not too long, and the armholes are a little bit deeper than a standard tank. Definitely my favorite fit. Excellent for workouts but cute enough to wear around town. And funny. Shop it here!

Beauty Buys: Chanel Fall



I recently paid a visit to the Chanel counter at Belk's to have one of their visiting national makeup artists try and fix my face and ended up with some really pretty new products for Fall. One thing I've noticed about cosmetics and me-any time someone puts pink tones on my eyelids I'm scared, but end up loving it. It ends up giving you a natural looking glow. I was especially scared of the Illusion D'Ombre in Rouge Gorge because it looks so strong in the pot, but it's actually pretty mellow once applied. I also wouldn't have gravitated towards the green-based Fall Quad to create a lightly smoky eye but I LOVED it. It's much more subtle than going with a black or a blue, and I realized I've already been into the army green and pink palette anyways! I also love this quad, which is definitely more of what I tend to use, super classic. I've been using their volumizing mascara for about 6 months now and love it-one coat is all you need, and it never clumps. If you're in Raleigh, I can't say enough about my friend Jessica at Chanel (Crabtree Belk), she is so kind and so talented-go see her. Shop more of my fall faves below!

What's Up @ J Crew

Since the retail world is forcing me to think about Fall, I started checking out some of the newest arrivals for the pre-Fallish season at J Crew and found some great pieces that are great for now aaaand Fallish. I really dig the army green + Carolina blue color combo. I even like the army green with the pink, like the New Balance sneakers; that's not something I would have put together, but now I'm planning how to work it into my wardrobe. They've also brought back the Amazing field jacket from last year; it's such a fantastic cut and really works almost year-round. Click the pictures above to see my favorites, and be sure to peruse the accessories too, especially these earrings. J Crew is taking 30% off of orders of $200+ or 25% off of orders of $100 with the code SHOPMORE, so get your "back to school" shopping done!

Sunnies: Illesteva


If you're in the market for a new pair of shades, check out Illesteva; I love the throwback mirrored lenses on a lot of the styles. They remind me of the 90s for some reason? But in a good way. (Remember Frogskins???) The Leonards are my favorites, but I like the Hamiltons too. Shop more below! PS-Raleigh peoples can pick up a pair at Charlotte's!
