ThirdLove 24/7 Balconette Bra

I spend a lot of time talking about the clothes I’m wearing, but today I want to talk about what’s going on underneath those outfits. They may not always be seen, but bras play a big role in how we look and feel. Enter: ThirdLove

I used to not pay much attention to the bras I was wearing. You don’t see them so what’s the big deal right? Oh how wrong I was. I currently I got rid of my old, ill-fitting bras to make way for the new because I realized two things.

For starters, a bra determines your silhouette and shape under those cute tops and dresses. Secondly, when you feel confident with what you’re wearing underneath your clothes, that confidence will absolutely shine through how you inevitably carry yourself.

ThirdLove creates their bras with you in mind. Their passion is for the perfect fit and understanding that women come in different shapes and sizes so much so that they offer half sizes. Half sizes! I highly recommend using their ‘Fit Finder’ to find a bra that works best for you. Even better, they have the option to try the first bra for free before buying. Head here to learn more. 

I have two favorites from ThirdLove. The first is the 24/7 Lace Blaconette Bra which I’m wearing above. It is incredibly comfortable which is number one when it comes to underwire bras and anything you have to wear all day. My second favorite is their 24/7 Classic Strapless Bra which every girl needs in black and nude in my opinion.

ThirdLove has an amazing color options for summer right now and I’ve linked my favorites below. Incredibly beautiful so don't be afraid to let that lace peek through a tank or tee. I also highly

suggest springing for the matching bottoms. When your bra and underwear match you really feel like you have your life together!

I can’t say enough great things about this brand. I genuinely have never worn bras that fit and feel the way they do. I promise you guys won’t be disappointed!

Shiseido Ibuki Smart Filtering Smoother

There are lots of tricks out there for creating flawless skin in your photos *cough cough Facetune* but I want to share one with you that gets me camera ready every. single. time. 

My secret weapon is Shiseido's Ibuki Smart Filtering Smoother. This small but mighty bottle is my go-to photogenic product that combats shine and leaves me with my desired matte complexion instantly!

A few reasons to love this product include its ability to visibly reduce the size of pores and give the skin an incredibly smooth look. I like to put it on before applying my makeup and since it's so small and compact, I carry it around with me and apply for a mid-day refresh or before going to an event. Not having to worry about touchups before taking photos is a life-saver. It's as necessary to have with me as a tube of chapstick! And you guys know how much I love chapstick.

If you're like me and need to be selfie ready without worrying about blemishes or fine lines peeking through, I highly recommend giving Shiseido's Ibuki Smart Filtering Smoother a try. 

I've also linked below two other favorites from the Shiseido below that I think you guys will totally fall in love with. 

Can't wait to hear your thoughts and please let me know what you think about it in the comments below! 

Summer Fits with Abercrombie

 

When you think of Southern California living, images of beach, palm trees, and sun kissed skin probably float through your head. And, I don't blame you! Those are a few of the many reasons I have loved living and growing up in this corner of the world. One brand that has been tried and true to the endless summer vibe is Abercrombie and Fitch. 

Made in collaboration with Abercrombie, I want to talk about the summer pieces you'll be coveting this season.

Since I was a high schooler coveting every piece and begging my mother to buy me a logo tee, Abercrombie has managed to develop and change with the times while always remaining true to it's core aesthetic. 

I personally have been so impressed with Abercrombie's new arrivals as of late. Think elevated basics with flattering silhouettes. I am especially drawn to their dress selections. You may have caught me donning one in downtown LA recently on my Instagram. 

In addition to their dresses, I am also gushing over their tees and rompers. I love playing with the minimal look and adding my own spin. I plan to wear these pieces and adding statement earrings and belts to make it Little Black Boots approved. 

Below I've linked my current favorites from their collection (including my dream pair of swim bottoms that are on sale!!)

Would love to hear about what you think of Abercrombie's latest offerings in the comments below!
