march into summer

unknown dress, vintage Salvatore Ferragamo flats, bag c/o Cut 'n' Paste, vintage and F21 jewelry

I think I've had this dress since middle school. I brought it along to Minneapolis for the summertime, but I never thought I'd get a chance to wear it in the middle of March! We've been super lucky with super warm weather and sunshine all week. A few of my friends have actually been complaining about sunburn.

Although Birchbox is first and foremost cosmetics-based, one of my favorite items I've ever received was a Twistband, a hair elastic that doesn't leave your hair with crimps and kinks. Thanks to my March box, I have a purple one to add to my collection. My two other favorite items this month were a glittery polish from Essie's Luxeffects line and an orange lip tint by Tarte. I tend to hate any lip color I try, but I am loving this one!
Back to the topic of sunshine, I am running outside for my last few minutes before work! Happy weekend all.

  8. That glittery nail polish looks so fun! I must admit, I'm quite jealous that it's warm enough for you to wear a dress in March. Eek! Also, as usual, your hair looks incredible girl :)

  21. 1. Beautiful dress. 2. Beautiful hair (duh!) 3. I am SO JEALOUS of your birchbox... I saw someone else got similar items to you. I swear mine are the crappiest birchboxes that go out anywhere. I get either a face cleanser or moisturizer every single month and I never get ANYTHING full-sized! Wah wah wah haha.

    1. I HAVE A PLAN. Change your address to my address. I will get both of our Birchboxes, and since it will be in the same region, we will get the same items. Then I will forward your Birchbox to your actual address. Bahaha.
