As fall starts to roll in, there are certain summer trends that will be transitioning through with me. That is, tiered ruffles and embroidery. I am sure tassel earrings will come along as well, but today I am spotlighting a great clutch and an amazing top!
To start things off, lets chat about this statement top from Shein. I actually purchased it on Amazon and got it in 2 days through Prime! The material of this piece is heavy, making it a bit more dressy and perfect for any occasion. What makes this top so special is the sleeves. The ruffled tier design is so edgy and fun! This is a trend that I was a bit late to jump on, but am really excited about. Wearing a top like this is just so different!
Pairings
With the neckline being rather bare, I decided to pair this beautiful top with a sparkling statement piece from Charming Charlie. This necklace is so beautiful and has such intricate detailing! It really adds a special touch to this top and completes the look!
Since there is a lot going on with the top, I chose dark wash skinny jeans and heels to streamline the look, and balance out all of the details. And to add that cherry on top finish, I added this amazing clutch my Steven by Steve Madden. Seriously, isn’t it fun?! The bright color embroidery is what drew me in, along with the design and the tassel accents! I feel like I am carrying a art piece when I take this bag out. Its just so unique!
So to wrap up this look, I decided to bring together 3 bold pieces, which on their own can make a statement, but all together create a complete look! Since everything is solid and only my clutch has a print it is easy to add multiple statements to one look!
When I think of plaid, usually fall and winter come to mind, but I recently received this dress from Shein, and have changed my perception! This white plaid t-shirt dress is lightweight and short sleeved, making it the perfect choice for the summer months. I also think it is a perfect back to school piece!
I have paired this lightweight dress with ankle booties and a fun navy hat. With the Houston heat at its peak, I find myself reaching for hats pretty frequently to protect my face and hair from the harsh sun rays. Not to mention, hats totally add a special finishing touch to any look!
This dress is unlined so I recommend wearing a slip with it, or shapewear for a smooth finish. The length is perfect for a more conservative look and the silhouette screams fun! The best part of all is this dress is only $14.00! At that price I think it is a must for summer and early fall!
I love getting my hands on a great romper. These one-piece items are really amazing because they can create a stylish look without all of the added layers. If you are like me, and live in a very warm climate, rompers truly are your best friend! I recently had the opportunity to partner with SaraBoo, a Brazilian Boutique offering fashionable pieces to make you feel your absolute best!
One of the pieces I selected was this incredible romper. From the front keyhole accent, gorgeous print and skirt hem, this romper has it all! The fit is perfect as is the length, even for taller girls! I enjoy pairing this piece with glam sandals and sunnies like these Olivia Miller sandals from Stage, and metallic geo sunglasses from Mirina Collections.
I selected this romper in a size medium and it fits just as described. I would say order true to size from SaraBoo. Check out their site for amazing finds for vacation wear, night out clothing and even wear-to-work! Better yet, use code RED20 to get an additional % off your order! Happy shopping!
I recently purchased Charcoal toothpaste from a local Houston Business named: No Crap In It. This is my first time purchasing charcoal toothpaste, though I have been curious to try it for a while. No Crap In It offers products with just that, nothing artificial, or toxic, just natural organic goodness! So if figured if I was going to try this type of toothpaste, this was the way to go!
No Crap In It offers 2 flavors of charcoal toothpaste; Chocolate and Peppermint. I decided to go safe with the classic peppermint this time around.
On my first use the consistency was a bit strange and uneven. I will also say that the flavor is not like regular store-bought toothpaste, it is not as sweet or sticky. The toothpaste is grainy and minty similar to the texture of toothpaste used at the dentist office. When I finished brushing my teeth I immediately noticed a whiter appearance, but what really surprised me was how clean my teeth felt! Similar to when I exfoliate my skin, the teeth felt silky smooth! I will also add I did not have any gum irritation.
I have now implemented this product into my routine using this toothpaste a few times a week to keep my teeth looking ultra fresh and white.
If you are interested in trying charcoal toothpaste, I totally recommend it! Yes, it is weird at first and takes some getting used to but the results and quality of the product are totally worth it! No Crap In It’s charcoal toothpaste starts at $12.99 and at that price, why not try it out? That is way cheaper than whitening kits and much safer for your teeth and gums. So give it a go! Your teeth will thank you.

I was offered the opportunity to review the website and product selection. I chose 3 dresses from the site and anxiously awaited my order. All three pieces arrived separately which was to be expected as it explains on the site. The pieces were well packaged and as described.
This dress in particular is a summer must-have! The length and fit are perfect, and the material is light and breathable. I especially love the striped print and layered design. And at $25.99 you have no reason not to pick this one up!
This summer has been really fun when it comes to color palettes. Traditional fall shades and textures have been re-purposed into summer silhouettes! These shades and designs lend a 70’s feel and I’m loving it!
I picked this gorgeous wrap dress up from Shein.com a fast fashion website featuring the latest trends at amazing prices. This dress was $34.00 and worth every penny. The material is heavy so that it holds its shape accordingly. The faux wrap design is accented perfectly with the sash tie waist and side slit accent. The print is so fun and really makes this piece an eye-catcher! I recently wore this piece to the Pop Shop Houston event at Silver Street Studios and received so many compliments! You can dress this piece up or wear it casual with sandals as I did, the options are limitless!
I purchased this dress in a size M, but definitely think the S would have fit perfectly. The M fits a tad big on me, but it isn’t too bad. I would say order true to size on this piece.
