Juice Beauty
I truly believe that I was meant to discover Juice Beauty as I found out about the clean skincare and makeup company three different ways, at about the exact same time. I took that coincidence as a cue that I needed to give their products a try. I first learned about the brand via Anthropologie's website since they sell it, then I realized that goop's skincare line was created in collaboration with Juice Beauty, and then I found out that Lauren was interested in Juice Beauty as well. Long story short, the stars aligned and Juice Beauty was brought to my attention. At the time I currently only own one Juice item, their amazing concealer, but their mascara and creamy blush are on my next-to-buy list. I love that the Juice team is so passionate about clean, safe ingredients. Also, the concealer is very effective and does not cause me to break out. I have had quite the time dealing with some acne on my chin and it is so sensitive to concealers. I want to cover it up, but with something that will not smother it, irritate it, or make it worse. I have tried so many concealers out there, and finally Juice Beauty's perfecting concealer saved the day. It's such a relief knowing that it is free of toxins and harsh chemicals. Below are a few images via Anthropologie + Juice Beauty products we want to try.*image above via the juice beauty pinterest page via this blog post

A day to celebrate love and eat chocolate and everything is red and pink. Lo & I have put together a little gift guide for anyone who needs some ideas for their man!1) gin rummy glass // "they are so cool and masculine // jase loves ours" - Lo2) steak knives3) whiskey rocks4) Habanero Escobar Beef Jerky5) the yummiest coffee6) for the photographer7) a cool duffel bag for weekend trips8) a new pair of running shoes

a touch of red
I have always been slightly envious of girls that rock the color red all the time - at work, going out, red nails, red lips...it's never been a strength of mine and I typically shy away from the color. When I do love red though - is with all black. It adds such a bold pop of color and instantly makes any outfit so much more fun and exciting! I am obsessed with this red vest from anthro. I think you could wear it with jeans, a leather legging, or even your favorite workout tights. It's so fun and versatile!

Another essential in my closet is this black ponte pant in stretch twill. You can wear these casual with a big oversized sweater, or dress them up with a button down blouse for work. I have gotten so much use out of mine!

Winter Whites
I've always been one of "those girls" who wears white after labor day - even when this was considered "breaking a rule". I love white. Not only is it my favorite color just in general, but it's my favorite color to wear. I think it feels so feminine and classy.
Mock Neck Sweater | Fur Vest (similar - mine is from LOFT years ago!) | Boyfriend jeans (similar - mine are from Zara) | Clutch | Earrings | Sunnies | Booties
I am obsessed with this mock neck sweater because it's so soft, thin and I love the loose fit. A lot of girls shy away from sweaters because of the extra bulk they add. Not this one! It would also be so cute with skinny jeans or a leather legging.
Not only do I love the color white, but I think wearing white on white (on white!) is such a sleek and clean monochromatic look. Just make sure they are all slightly different shades of white to give your outfit some dimension.!

the art of "cozy chic"
I couldn't help but notice, scrolling through my Instagram feed recently, that everyone & their mom seem to be somewhere snowy and beautiful right now. Either on a ski trip or cozied up in a cabin somewhere. While I can't be too jealous because my ski trip is coming up in February!, it made me realize the importance of having clothes that are not just comfortable, but that you still feel cute in.So, whether you're going to the mountains over spring break, or have decided you just don't feel the cutest in your size XL sweatpants and older brother's shirt...I've rounded up some of my favorite "comfy chic" pieces from Anthro & Lou & Grey because I think they are the masters at this look!
