Curls and Conversations Recap! (Mini look of the day)

I want to start by apologizing for my absence from the blog...things have been beyond hectic but I promise to be better about my posting!

So this past Friday I held my second natural hair event Curls and Conversations. Curls and Conversations is a casual happy hour event that I plan on throwing once a month on a Friday with alternating venues.

The event had a great turnout which I was beyond excited about. I won't go on any more but I will post some pictures of the event as well as a picture of my "Look of the Day" below....

The Boots Were Made for Walking...Fall Boot Trends!!

 

 

 

 

With the Fall season approaching rapidly I just thought it would be great if I did a post on some of the biggest boot trends for the upcoming season.  I think that everyone should make their way to getting at least on of the styles that are in this season....

 



The Lace Up
This style of boot is perfect for rocking with a pair of skinny pants or jeans.  You can spice it up by choosing a boot with a print by far one of the sexiest boots styles out.

Riding Boots
While riding boots aren't new to the game they are coming in full swing this season.  Try looking for a two toned riding boot to bring some variety to your collection.  Hunter makes some great leather riding boots. Riding boots are classic and would be a long term addition to your boot collection,

Hiking Boots
These are not your dad's hiking boots!  Spice up this style by choosing a hiking boot with a heel.  These boots can give any casual look a vibrant feel.







Chelsea Boots
These boots are coming back in from it's highest peak the 60's.  So for a really trendy casual look a pair of Chelsea boots will give you just that look.

Wedge Boots
By far one of my favorite style of boots the wedge can take any look to the next level while still providing a ton of comfort and absolute must have!






So there you have it! Equipped with the tools to get your started shopping this fall season!

August Birchbox Review....

So my next Birchbox arrived and guess who was beyond excited about it's contents.  I must say I was very impressed with the contents this month.  I will be honest and say after my first month's box I was not sure if I was going to continue my subscription any longer.  So enough of me babbling see what came in my August Birchbox below...

 

 

 

 

What was included in the box:

 

* A Beauty School Manual

* Juicy Couture Perfume

*Schick Hydro Silk

*Miss Jessies Stretch Silkening Creme

*Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream

* Pixi Lipstick and Liner

 

What I loved about this month's box:

The theme!  Once again I feel if Birchbox hits the nail on the head with the theme surrounding each month's box.  With August being the month for most people starting school the "Beauty School Supply Box" was the perfect match.  I also loved getting the Miss Jessie's products I feel like each month they really do focus their boxes on my needs.  For $10 a month I feel like it more than pays for itself.
