july crush list!

july
1. rock & roll vs. country I've said it about a billion times once, and I'll say it again...Too Faced is my hands-down favorite when it comes to eye shadow palettes; so I am super {supersupersuper} excited for their latest releases...the Rock N Roll Rock Candy Eye Shadow Collection, and the Country Nashville Nudes Eye Shadow Collection. The former is a little bit rock & roll {and super sexy}; the latter is a little bit country {and seriously sweet} - yet both feature essential shadow shades for creating a multitude of looks {from natural to vampy}. Truth: I covet both!

2. vintage rompers Obviously more suited for the sand than the streets; I am completely crushing on vintage rompers. They serve as the perfect nod to the Original Barbie's signature black and white striped swimsuit; and would make for the ideal attire for a sun-drenched vacay in the French Riviera. My two faves? Wildfox's Little Polka Dots Romper in Valentine, and Wildfox's Skipper Romper in Vintage Black {Barbie's little sis would totes approve}!

3. knuckle rings I usually opt for minute midi rings for their dainty elegance; but I lovelovelove oversize, bulky knuckle rings dotted in gems and exotic stones during the summer months. They pair so beautifully with cutoff denim and oversize, billowy tanks once the weather warms up, yes? I'm currently adoring Sole Society's Turquoise Statement Ring in Turquoise {because turquoise jewelry is a summer staple, of course}, and Sole Society's Linear Amethyst Ring in Purple Multi.

4. the flare The name of this blog alone is an indication of my devotion to skinny jeans; but the flare is having a moment in my personal style spotlight due in very large part to the fact that they: a} make your legs look insanely long and lean; and b} make you feel like one of Charlie's Angels {so important, amiright?}. My top picks are Rag & Bone/JEAN's The Elephant Bell Jeans in Cypress, and J Brand's 1197 Martini Jeans in Reflex. So perf, yes?

5. harrow Despite the rising temps, I have yet to pull out my sandals; instead, I've been literally living in my rag & bone Newbury Booties, and have arrived at the conclusion that...it's time to expand my collection. Enter Harrow. rag & bone's Harrow Bootie in Camel Two, and Grey both fit the wear now, wear later mantra; and, let's be honest, retain the ability to single-handedly turn even the most casual of ensembles up a notch.
