Outfit Of The Day (Husband's Birthday)

Hey y'all and happy hump day!!!

Jeans for any occassion

Today's blog which is an outfit of the day is what I wore for my husband's birthday. It was last Sunday, so basically it's what I wore to church. This outfit didn't make it all through the night because we went to a baseball game later that evening, and I was most definitely not going to wear this to the stadium. If y'all know me and my style then y'all know that I am most comfortable in jeans. Jeans are my most go to pieces in my closet because they are just so versatile. The best thing about wearing jeans is that you can easily dress them up or down by simply changing your shoes, and/or your top.

top: PX (two years ago)

blazer: Forever 21 (similar)

jeans: express

shoes: Aldo (similar)

For foundation I am wearing the new YSL Fusion Ink Foundation in BD45 Warm Bisque. Which by the way I am loving and will have a review on it on my youtube channel real soon. For blush I wanted something more orange, so I went with Tarte's blush in captivating. On my eyes I'm using the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette, y'all know me, neutral's all the way!!!. To finish the look I used wet n wild just peachy lipstick topped with pink lemonade lipglass by MAC.

Hope you have a wonderful rest of the week.

Peace☮ and Love♥

Yves Saint Laurent (Rouge Volupte/Shine) and Rouge Pur Couture Glossy Stain

Hey y'all and happy Thursday!!!

Today's blog is in conjunction with today's youtube video. I'm providing this blog so you can see better pics and lip swatches in case the lighting in my video was not the best for y'all.

YSL's lipstick in my opinion are some of the best high end products in the market. They are very smooth and creamy feeling on the lips. The formula is long lasting and extremely opaque as well. They also contain spf 15 which is great for preventing sun burn or skin damage to your lips. A lot of us forget that we can also damage our lips with sun exposure and forget to protect our lips, so that's an exra added bonus...at least for me.

They are highly pricey, but it is YSL so you know what you're getting yourself into. At sephora which is where I purchased mine they are $35 each with 0.12oz for the volupte and $35 with 0.20oz for the glossy stains.

Here are swatches of the lipsticks on my lips.
