STAYCATION MUST HAVES

Summer is over, (ugh.) but now we look forward to the hustle and bustle of the holiday prep, shopping and a house full of guests.  So before it's too late, take some time out and treat yourself to a little staycation.  I know many of you are workaholics, business owners or stay at home moms, just like I am (dogs only for me), and that is exactly why I'm writing this post. For you. 

Pampering yourself shouldn't be something you think about once or twice a year. It should be a weekly or monthly ritual.  It gives us time to think, unwind and plan out our next level of #empirebuilding.  Here's your reminder, from me to you. Relax, love yourself and don't forget to breathe.  Cheers to the kick-ass women in the world!

3.1 PHILLIP LIM SS/15: NYFW BEAUTY RECAP

 

“There is a lot of see-through transparency and airiness to the collection – I wanted that to come through in the makeup.  My inspiration is sensuality; the way the morning light hits you as you wake up in your bedroom, with sensual skin beaming with rays of light. I highlighted the cheek bones, high planes of the face and the bridge of the nose to accentuate and bring out that glow in each girl.”  

Francelle Daly

Phillip Lim never disappoints.  I loved this beauty look, fresh and dewy for spring!
