Round Up: July 2016

I mentioned in my 24K Gold Eyes post how much I’m loving this new Hourglass brush, but I’d like to gush about it a little more. I’m seriously obsessed! We’ve been experiencing quite the heatwave in NY (it’s been between 93 & 100 with super high humidity for about 2 weeks) and my Rimmel London Stay Matte Foundation has been my savior! I usually apply it with my fingers, but I’ve been using the Hourglass brush and it blends it so perfectly into my skin you can’t even tell I’m wearing makeup!! ((insert hand raising emoji!))

I swore I wasn’t going to talk about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale #1 because I wasn’t sure I was even going to shop it & #2 because I’m sure you were sick of hearing about it before it ever started (I was tempted to unfollow people because it’s ALL THEY FUCKING TALKED ABOUT FOR 3 WEEKS)…but caved and shopped and I got some pretty awesome stuff I thought I’d mention! I picked up these Vince Camuto ‘Pedra’ Over the Knee Boots in Gingerbread Leather. I got the Wide Calf ones, but they are 100% NOT wide calf, they might be slightly larger than regular calf boots, but no where near the calf circumference of the other wide calf boots I own. Luckily they do fit me and I’m in LOVE with them! I actually love them so much I just ordered them in black leather too! I suggest going up a half size. I normally wear an 8 1/2 or 9 and I got these in the 9, there’s no way I could’ve gotten my foot into the 8 1/2. I also got the Vince Camuto ‘Melaya’ Over the Knee Boots in Bark Suede, another AMAZING boot for Fall and Winter. These don’t come in wide calf but the regular calf fits perfectly (I swear the regular calf in these and the wide calf in the other fit the same…WTF Vince Camuto?) and the heel in the perfect height! I ordered these in a 9, but I’m exchanging them for a 9 1/2. My foot feels a little too snug and I want to be able to wear socks with them comfortably. I picked up this Halogen Long Side Slit Cardigan in Black because I have a gray one and I wear it ALL the time. I’ll definitely get a ton of use out of it when the weather drops and it’s great quality for the price (under $50!). Lastly was a little bit of an impulse buy…the Zella Wrap Hoodie. It’s about time I upgraded some of my workout clothes and this was too cute not to get! Leave me a comment and let me know what you picked up for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!
