SENIOR PROM! | PICTURES & MAKEUP DETAILS

Hey guys! Friday night was my senior prom, and I thought I'd share the pictures with you guys, as well as what I did with my makeup. I decided not to vlog because I just wanted to enjoy the whole day and live in the moment. I'm so sad this is my last prom... but I'm also so excited for everything the future holds. Prom, graduation, summer, college... so much is happening in the upcoming months! Ahhhh

Senior prom was amazing! Since I am homeschooled, it's a little different, but not much! lol

When Hayden and I started dating (and I mean the first day we made it official) he asked me when my prom was and if I would wear sneakers. I said of course! (along as they had glitter on them) Hayden is really into collecting sneakers, so it's something special to him I wanted to do! 

When I was little, I  always wanted to wear a "princess dress" to prom and in past years I've always gone super simple and sleek- so this year I wanted to do something different, romantic and feminine. The dress I decided on was a tulle dress with light blue and pink floral, and it made me feel so girly and elegant. My glitter sneakers are Kate Spade by Keds. Hayden wore matching blue pants with a grey jacket, pink gingham bowtie (so Chuck Bass I can't even ahhh) and white sneakers.

Megan, who also has a beauty channel, did my hair and she was amazing! Check her out here! We decided to do a soft fishtail braid and added extensions for extra thickness. 

The night was so much fun! I couldn't ask for a better date haha
Keep scrolling for makeup details and more pictutres- big thank you to my friend Kathryn for taking amazing pictures! You're the best <3

For my makeup, I wanted it to be girly and glam, but not distract from my dress. I did a soft pink toned eye, with winged liner and fluttery lashes, glowy pink cheeks and a soft berry lip.

SPRING STYLE: 3 OUTFITS from 2 FLORAL Pieces!

Hey guys! Spring is quickly approaching us and this warmer weather is getting me so excited to break out flowy skirts and pretty florals! Recently I picked up this matching floral crop top and maxi skirt set from Forever 21. Here's the simple matching version of the top and skirt... it's like wearing a dress but not. 

Not only did I think they were cute worn together, I thought it was such a great deal because I could wear the top with a different bottom or the skirt with a different top. You basically get three outfits in one! These pieces are so versatile that they can go from work, to a casual date, to a dressy night out. Shoutout to my awesome boyfriend Hayden for taking some awesome pictures! It was hard to decide which ones to use! 😘 Let's see some outfits! 

LOOK #1: WORK IT

This first outfit is something I would wear to work, or maybe even school (on a dressier day). When we shot this blogpost I actually did come straight from work in this outfit! Keeping' it real y'all. And I'll let you know it was boss approved. 👍😎 I layered some black tights underneath the skirt, since the slit is so high, to make it more work/school appropriate. I layered a high neck black lace bralette under a white crop top. I love the pop of lace that is still conservative. For shoes I kept it cute but comfy with some wedge booties. I tied in some military style with an army green/leather jacket and a coordinating backpack! Perfect for hauling around school & work supplies!

White Crop Tank: Brandy Melville / Black Bralette: Aerie / Jacket: American Eagle (old, similar here) / Backpack: Urban Outfitters / Sunglasses: Similar here / Bracelets: Bournon & Bowties / Phone case: Bando / Black tights: Target / Shoes: Target 

LOOK #2: DRIVING 'ROUND IN DENIM

This next outfit is the most casual of the three! Simple but flirty, this look is perfect for a casual date, driving around town and exploring some new places! I paired the original floral top with a pair of simple light wash high waisted skinnies and black heel booties. For a more walking friendly option (trust me those heels on the train track- not my brightest idea) try a pair of flat boots or sneakers! 

Top: Forever 21 / Jeans: American Eagle / Faux Suede Booties: Forever 21 / Bracelets: Bourbon & Bowties

LOOK 3: ALL DRESSED UP

The last outfit, is back to just the original top and skirt- together like they were meant to be! I love a monochromatic look, and I love how wearing a matching top and skirt give the feel of a dress with something a little different. I paired this look with some black chunky wedges that balance out the soft floral print. I added my favorite cross body clutch, perfect for a night out. This is something I'd wear for a fancy date or night time event!

Top & Skirt: Forever 21, as mentioned 😉 / Wedges: Micheal Kors /  Crossbody bag: BelleandBlush / Pom pom: Brandy Melville (only $5) / Bracelets: Bourbon & Bowties 

Makeup:

Foundation: Becca Aqua Luminous Perfecting Foundation / Concealer (Brightener): Makeup Forever Ultra HD Concealer in R22 / Concealer: Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer / Bronzer: Nars Laguna / Blush: Nars Madly / Highlight: Becca Champagne Pop Shimmering Skin Perfecter / Eyeshadow: Becca Ombre Rouge Palette / False Lahes: Ardell Individual Medium / Lipliner: Kevyn Aucoin Minimal / Lipstick: Lipstick Queen Pinky Nude Sinner

Thank you all so much for stopping by my blog! I hope this post helped show you that you can wear one to two pieces so many different ways, and for very different occasions. I love how affordable and versatile this top and skirt are, and it's something that anyone can rock this spring. Let me know what look was your fav! 

Xoxo,

Steph

My Favorite Clutch + Essentials!

I have finally found the perfect clutch.. for under $40. Yep. That's right! It's from BelleandBlush, and it's only $38- and comes in six colors/textures. I got the black ostrich texture which also comes in tan. It's such a functional clutch, being divided down the middle with two big sides (perfect for phone, lipgloss, ect.) and a smaller center section with places for credit cards and money. It also has an attachable cross body strap which makes it great when you want your hands free! When I carry my clutch, I narrow it down to the necesseties...

What's In My Clutch?

• Quest Bars- always gotta have a high protein healthy snack incase I get hungry!
• Mirror - for touchups!
• Hand Sanitizer
• Lip color I'm wearing- Usually Minimal and Pinky Nude!
• Lipgloss- Vincent Longo Baci XXX
• Jouer Lip Enhancer
• Blotting Papers
• Altoids
• Wallet

What are your clutch essentials?

Xoxo,

Steph
