Rohnwen Cape from Blue Vanilla / Tom's Majorca Booties / Sosie Tindra Dress / Fringe Bag / Sunnies (similar here & here) / Alex & Ani Bangles

Capes, and Fringe, and Plaid......Oh My!

I don't know about you guys but Spring in my neck of the woods has been quite unpredictable. For days where it's not so Spring-like I grab my Rohnwen Cape and go. It's perfect for breezy days and cool nights and can be worn several ways. For a totally different look just add your favorite belt. Here I wore it over a little black dress but it looks just as nice over a tee and your favorite jeans.

Here's a treat save 20% off this dress or anything site wide with promo: mylifeinmascara20 just click on the link above!

As always thanks for stopping by!

Easy breezy Spring days call for comfy dresses, open toed shoes, and a light jacket because you know the weather will eventually turn on you.
Last Sunday we celebrated Mother's Day. The weather was perfect and brunch at Miranda was delicious as always, if you're in the neighborhood you must try it. Best of all I did absolutely nothing except enjoyed and relaxed. I hope all the mommies and mommies to be had a great day also.

I absolutely love this shift dress so much so that I own it in all three colors. It's light, comfy, and looks good on most anyone. I for one will be wearing them all Summer long. You can get 20% off this dress or anything on the Shopsosie site with promo code: mylifeinmascara20

Happy Friday and enjoy the weekend guys!

denim jacket

Made a new friend....meet Mischa

JCrew Denim Jacket / Damask Black Pants (previously owned) / JCrew White Blouse / Sperry Booties / ID Pendant & Leather Wrap Bracelets can be found on my Keep-Collective site / Aviators(similar)/

It finally feels like Spring which means more daylight, more walks, getting some sun on my face (with sunscreen of course), and less layers. A denim jacket is a Spring must and best of all it's a classic so it never goes out of style. Have a great week friends!

Moisture Rich Fluid Foundation in Beige

This foundation melted right into my skin

Hydrating Lip Lustre Gloss in Berry Delight

Powder Blush in Blushing Sunset

Eyeshadows in Rock Candy and Brown Sugar

Volumising Mascara in Black

nvey eco is a line of makeup and skincare that is pure organic and cruelty free. I am all for natural products that are good to my skin but I also want products that are going to work and hold up throughout my busy day. Let's just say nvey eco did not disappoint! I went with colors that I could wear everyday, something that looked and felt natural as opposed to made-up. Now don't get me wrong they carry a full line in an array of colors from light to ultra dramatic so you will definitely find what you're looking for with nvey eco.

The eyeshadow in Brown Sugar is a perfect all over color. I used the lighter Rock Candy color to highlight under my brow bone as well as in the inner corners of my eyes to brighten. The mascara gave me length and clump free separation while the blush in Blushing Sunset gave my cheeks a nice subtle color (much needed during this drab never-ending Winter). The foundation was easy to apply and gave me nice coverage without feeling heavy or caked on. It can be applied with a brush, beauty blender sponge, or your fingers, I prefer a brush. The lip gloss went on sheer but can be layered. The color was perfect for everyday use. Overall I was very happy with the line, the quality, and the wear. You can check out and shop the entire line here and to learn more about the history and philosophy of nvey eco just click here.
