OOTD: 20th Birthday


06/19/15 
Friday was my 20th birthday! The day was filled with friends and family and a lot of food. To start off the day I went to breakfast with my friends Mariah, Maureen, and Cathleen at my favorite local spot. Then Mariah and I got massages at my chiropractor office for a little relaxation. After that we got ready and went shopping downtown Naperville. We scooped up a few great things from J Crew, Sephora, and Anthropolgie. Then we completed our shopping trip at the Victoria Secret semi-annual sale! P.s. currently their sale bras are an extra 25% off in stores so go hit that up! 

After spending too much money we got dinner with my family, my two aunts, Mariah, and Maureen. We ate at one of my favorites On the Border. When the waiters sang to me they wished me a happy 21st birthday. The rest of the night we joked that I turned 21 instead of 20! It was nice to have dinner with my friends and family and to celebrate another stylish year. 


For my birthday look I wore this adorable lace romper I just picked up from Francesca's. It was on sale for around $25 which is a pretty good deal. It has a v-neck and a lower back with thicker straps. I paired it with a bold statement necklace from Baublebar which I picked up from the Nordstrom anniversary sale last year. To dinner I wore BCBG heels but to go around town and shop I wore my go-to sandals of the moment. I am obsessed with these rhinestone sandals from Target. For only $22 they are a great deal! 








Where it's from: 
Romper: Francesca's 
Necklace: Baublebar 
Bracelets: Alex and Ani & Kendra Scott 
Watch: Henri Bendel 
Ring: Tiffany & Co. 
Shoes: Target

OOTD: Humid Day Look


The weather in Illinois has been super wacky. It will go from hot, humid, and sunny to pouring rain, humid, and pitch black. So, it's hard to get up and dress for an unpredictable day! But, when I left the house it happened to be nice and sunny. Naturally I had to take advantage of the sun! 

For this look I wanted something that was light and comfortable. Humidity is not my friend. I wore this light white collared shirt to keep things simple. By adding a bright printed short I spiced up the simple top. I also love this top because it has this built in tie which is something I have been loving to do with my collared shirts. 



To accessorize this look I wore a bold pink statement earring. This pink statement earring from J Crew is one of my go-to pieces when I want to add a touch of color. I also wore my favorite Alex and Ani bangles along with a tassel bead bracelet from Armed and Readi. To finish the look I wore my go-to watch of the moment from Henri Bendel. 



I LOVE these Sperry Topsider sneakers. They have adorable leather ties that make them a little different from your average sneaker. Plus they go with everything. 



As many of you may know I scooped up a bunch of stuff from the Lilly for Target collection. These shorts I snagged from the kids section. One of the many perks of being short/ tiny is that you can get really cute clothes in the kids department for the fraction of the cost.

Spa Day Idea + GIVEAWAY

Recently I was sent the Zakia Morocco face and body mask to try out. I will say this is one unique face and body mask! This mask is made from 100% pure and natural clay which is mined in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. You can not only use this mask for your face but also it works in your hair. This mask is the ideal component to have a perfect spa day. Whether you have some me time or host with friends this mask is a great beauty item to add to your collection! 



By mixing water with the powder one creates a mask to use on the body, face, or hair! Keep the product on your skin for 10 minutes to reveal soft skin! It also helps absorbs unwanted grease, removes facial impurities, and erases blackheads! This product is great because it is three in one. You can use it for hair, body, or face which is great if you are looking for a dual purpose product. 

Does this mask seem interesting for you? Feel free to use this coupon code for 20% off any products in their store! 
ZMBLOG-162

Do you want to create your own spa day? Well here are a few easy things to create the perfect getaway at home....


  1. Zakia Morocco Ghassoul Clay Powder (face and body mask) | As I mentioned before this product is the perfect product for a spa day! Just by adding water you can create a hair, face, or body mask with just one product. Scented candle | Scented candles are the best kind of candles! My favorite are Capri Blue candles. You can find these at Anthropologie or at other retailers. 
  2. Spa headband | To keep your hair out of your face when applying masks be sure to wear some sort of headband and tie your hair back. 
  3. Calming playlist | Create a playlist featuring soothing songs. Pick whatever makes you feel most relaxed. 
  4. Bath Bomb | The best place to get bath bombs are from Lush. These are not only fun but also release amazing scents that are out of this world.
