Theyskens Theory

summer favorites

Monday, August 13, 2012

writing summer roundups often make me sad simply because that means the end of summer is nigh. while I don’t want it to be completely over (hello weekend beach trips!), I’m not completely sad (fall shopping!). so as we’re in the midst of august, why not do a round up of my summer must haves?

Vaseline Total Moisture Aloe Fresh

In a Vaseline® Total Moisture® Study, 93% of the members said they’d recommend Vaseline® Total Moisture® lotion. Count me in! The aloe fresh lotion is super lightweight, smells good, and provides great moisture (without feeling thick or heavy). The scent is wonderfully light, meaning it doesn’t interfere or compete with my fragrance. This is actually something I plan on continuing to use into the fall.

Bobbi Brown Beach Eau de Parfum and Caudalíe Beauty Elixir

Bobbi Brown Beach Caudalie

Bobbi Brown’s Beach eau de parfum is summer in a bottle. I spent most of my summer tracking it down — so popular it was sold out everywhere! Some say it smells like sunscreen but, oddly enough, I don’t get that at all. It has an intoxicating blend of jasmine, sea spray, and mandarin; it’s perfect for day because it’s not over powering, but super fresh and crisp. Caudalíe’s Beauty Elixir is something that’s been in my beauty arsenal for a while but have never used. Why? NO CLUE! Part serum mist, part toner, all amazing. I use it before applying moisturizer and carry it in my bag for a quick pick me up during the day. Super refreshing on super hot days.

Maybelline Color Nail Lacquer in Pink Shock and Sweet Clementine

maybelline color show

Maybelline recently launched a new nail lacquer line complete with 40 shades, an app where you can virtually try on the colors and a Pinterest board for inspiration. Talk about going HAM. First, kudos to Maybelline for putting the labels on the top so I don’t have to dig to find a shade. While all of the polishes vary in texture and opacity, I’ve found that Pink Shock (a bright pink) and Sweet Clementine (pretty tangerine) look great with 3 coats and lat about four to five days without chipping.

JEWELRY!!

Watch by C. Wonder both bracelets by J. Crew.

You’ve no doubt seen these in my outfit posts but I had to include them anyway. I’ve been wearing these everyday since I purchased them and refuse to wear anything else most days.

Theyskens’ Theory Atter Medium Turnlock Bag

Ladylike, compact, and super red. I’m trying to get into smaller bags and this is doing the trick.

Don’t forget to enter my Vaseline giveaway (extended!). Leave a comment below (or email me [email protected]) and share how many lotions you have in *your* medicine cabinet, for a chance to win a Vaseline Total Moisture. FIVE winners will be selected.

anchors aweigh!

Wednesday, July 25, 2012

dress: J. crew; belt: from a dress; bag: theyskens’ theory; shoes: Zara; bangle: Bauble Bar; Watch: BCBG (gifted)

I’ve already dished on my love of all things nautical so when I saw this dress was (finally) on sale at J. Crew, I think my heart did mini flips. My fingers did the talking, and before I knew it, the dress was in my cart and I was plugging in my credit card number. It’s lightweight, summery, and perfect. What more can a girl ask for in a dress? The yellow belt did not come with (it’s originally from this dress), but I had to cinch the waist a bit. I’m going through a belt phase. Can you tell?

What? I love anchors okay?!

The Golden Age: My Birthday Wishlist

Thursday, December 1, 2011

My birthday makes me sad. While I cause a raucous and constantly remind those around me of its upcoming arrival, there’s a hint of depression that sits far below the surface. Birthdays were the worst days and I’m always reminded of that.

This year, however, it’s a big deal. I’m turning 24 on December 24th and apparently that’s called a Golden Birthday (I also like the term “Champagne Birthday,” naturally). Planning something around my birthday is always useless since, after all, it IS Christmas weekend and everybody spends that time with their family (boo!). What better time to post a wish-list of sorts and see if the universe (a.k.a dad, friends, dad) is really paying attention.

Coach “Willis” Bag in Britishtan: this bag is the perfect not-too-big, not-too-small guy I’ve been looking for. I first saw it after meeting the lovely @CoachBlkrWomen for dinner one evening and its been on my mind ever since.

Coach Boyfriend Bracelet Watch: yes, another Coach goody. What can I say, I’m smitten. It’s no secret I love a solid gold watch since I’ve worn my Juicy Couture one to death! While most people run to get the Michael Kors, there’s only one boyfriend watch on my list and it’s this guy. This one’s chunky enough to pass off for a guy’s watch without swallowing my tiny wrists whole.

Theyskens’ Theory patent-leather and suede ombré wedges: I don’t need these and I know it. After seeing them on dozens of fashion bloggers. I’ve seen just how easily these can be styled, thus making them practical. See what I did there? I rationalized a pair of expensive-ass shoes. Imagine me in Zara.

Karen Walker Number One Sunglasses: I blogged about them here, when I borrowed them from a coworker. I’ve yet to purchase and it’s killing me. Maybe someone wants to make me happy? ‘Tis the season after all :)

Bauble Bar Initial Monogram Pendant (Large)
(obviously in my initials EKD): look, I grew up in the 90′s where nameplates were a thing okay? I might have lost mine some time in between 2000 and 2002 but that doesn’t negate the fact that I still want one. In gold. Now that Bauble Bar has these monogrammed pendants, I think they’re the grown up version of a 90′s staple…right next to door knockers.

NARS Kudoki Kabuki Lip Set: This is gorgeous and the lemming fo this is INSANE! Named for an element of Kabuki dance, this take on the Bento Box set features three limited edition shades poured into custom ceramic cups. I can imagine this elegant little gem sitting on my vanity next to the rest of my knick knacks.

PS: I totally didn’t mean to make the intro of this post to sound so depressing. Yikes! I need to work on my delivery…
