I'm always looking for new ways to wear denim, it's comfortable, classic, and goes with everything; what a perfect material. I was a little hesitant about the whole denim vest idea at first as I didn't think it would mix well with my girly/preppy style, but now I'm all for it. Denim vests are great for the summer months and can be layered with different pieces throughout the fall. Yay for finding new clothing loves! :) What do you all think of the denim vest?

Oh, and I may never come home from my vacation. The beach is just too wonderful to leave.

Summer Lipsticks

Yay for it being Wednesday! It's movie day with the kiddos today, my favorite. Oh, and I'm shopping the Nords Anniversary pre-sale...perfect day.

The lipsticks above are my must-haves for summer. I love that I will be able to transition a lot of them to the fall as well. Most of these are statement lipsticks, bright and intended to be an "accessory". My two everyday colors are YSL Sheer Candy #9 and MAC's Politely Pink. I am in LOVE with YSL's Sheer Candy line, they're glossy and hydrating with just a hint of color (not to mention they smell amazing) but it pained me to spend $35 on lipstick. I've discovered that drugstore lipstick can be just as lovely! My only recommendation is to keep your reciept in case the color doesn't end up working out.

What are your favorite summer lipsticks? I'd love to hear, I'm always looking for new colors :)
