All Natural Style

When I think of "all natural style," I immediately think of neutral tones, simple accessories, and clean lines. While I usually am adding on the layers and accessories with my clothes, my skin care routine is simple and natural, so when Lucky Community offered up the a free sample of boost serum for a challenge, I was all in! Seventh Generation Skin Serum is plant based and free of parabens, phthalates, and synthetic fragrances. After a brief survey, I was matched with the hydrating option that uses jojoba oil. It's a common misconception that oil begets an oily face -- an oily face actually means that your skin is dry. They recommend using the serum in conjunction with your daily moisturizer and so far I have noticed a significant difference - less oil, and more luminosity  As a freebie newbie, I sure hope that any product I'm asked to review is this awesome!

Two Ways to Wear...

...lace shorts!

For day, pair them with a knotted blouse, beads, and flat sandals. Remember that one way to wear the chic and clean look of all white, all year round is to mix tones and textures.

For night, mix them with a lace tee, which adds more drama than a plain one and add some structure with a sleeveless blazer. Remember the night calls for accessories so layer up the bracelets and throw on your favorite statement necklace!

Fancy Pants

Normally, I reserve these pants for the 9-5; however, I felt like dressing 'em down. Despite the initial instinct to pair them with other other fancy duds, printed pants work really well with more casual attire too. On this particular night of errands and Indian food, I threw on a knotted tee, colored denim jacket, and my trusty fedora. My favorite part of this ensemble is the rose gold, showcased with my newest gems and flat sandals. Actually, scratch that - my favorite part was the elastic waistband, which allowed for over eating of chicken tikka masala and lamb kebobs.

Peachy Keen

 If someone asked me, "How you doing today?" I would sound a heck of a lot like Rizzo in "Grease" as I say, "Peachy keen, jellybean," with her signature snark.
