This summer the hottest trend in jewelry is coins! From earrings to necklaces to bracelets, I have seen it everywhere! I got this coin necklace from Ettika Jewelry along with the earrings. I wore it for a night out and got so many compliments on my accessories. So many people asked me where it was from! What I love most about this jewelry is it comes with a pouch to store it in. It eliminates me getting it tangled with my other accessories and makes it easy to pack! The necklace is adjustable so you can wear it with any…

The latest movie I have watched that I’m reviewing is called Breaking Legs. This movie is for the tween to teen audience and is a dance centered movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TH1iYI8qlwM The movie itself focuses on Bloom played by Liv Southard, and her moving to a new town and living with her Uncle and Grandma. She auditions for her school dance team, and even though she is the best she isn’t allowed on the team because of the captain, Harmony played by Alexa Sutherland. Harmony is jealous of the newfound Liv, who exceeds in dance and catches the attention the guy Harmony…

Tassel’s are definitely the new fashion trend on scene for spring! I couldn’t wait to get this dress from Original Piece Boutique, as soon as I saw it. I tried it on and I love the one shoulder tassel design and adjustable strap. The tassels are a bold neon color that I love and it gives it a trendy twist. I wore this to an occasion I had at the beach and it was so comfortable to walk along the ocean in. The dress is a cream color for spring and will offset a nice tan… when I have time…

All over Instagram I have seen the Huda Beauty Rose Gold Palette. I was hesitant to get it because I wasn’t sure if the bold 3D metals would stay on my eyes. Well, I waited too long and the palette sold out before I could get it! I have been waiting to get the palette on the Sephora site for over a month but it has been sold out and not restocked! I was about to order it on her personal site, but she is located in Dubai and the shipping was really expensive. I just so happened to walk…

As you guys know I love fashion and dresses! I came across this solid black maxi dress at Original Piece Boutique in Jacksonville, Florida. As soon as I saw it I fell in love! I love the neckline and the side slit! It’s perfect for date nights or for a night out with the girls! I decided to try it on and it fits amazing! I love the accented top because I can do a simple necklace and a pair of my favorite heels or flats to dress this look up or down! This maxi is a new favorite… let’s…

So a fun fact is I love braids. I love any kind of braid. I search Pinterest and I am always looking for fun braids to try! I know how to French braid my own hair and to fishtail my own hair, but I don’t know how to Dutch braid… yet. My friend Dutch braided my hair and I have to say I love the Dutch braid style. It’s amazing and I love how it looks with my balayage hair color too! It’s the perfect spring/summer braid and it’s perfect for when I go out or go to work or am…

So this maxi dress had just arrived at Original Piece Boutique when I was coming in-store to shop for looks for our upcoming photoshoot I was planning for Original Piece Magazine. As soon as I saw this maxi I knew I HAD to try it on!. It comes in two colors and I of course selfied in both of them! I love the tribal design on this maxi and I love the mix of colors in both of them! I couldn’t decide on a color I love them both. I took a selfie in each color and I need your help…

So a lot of you all of been writing in or snapping me asking me what I use on my eyes. Well, here’s a secret tip: I have been using the new Stila eyeshadow from Ulta. I saw it on display and I love anything that glitters or shimmers so I decided to give it a try. I used it over a white base shadow and it went on smoothly and dried really fast, which I loved. It gave me a really nice shimmer and I got so many compliments on my makeup today when I wore this shadow. I…

So as most of you guys know I love makeup. I’ve read so many reviews on the Too Faced Sweet Peach palette and have wanted it for so long! Every time I go to purchase it it’s sold out in-store. But the other day when I walked into Ulta I was in luck because they just got in their shipment of it and were fully stocked! I grabbed one and couldn’t wait to go home and try it.Overall I absolutely LOVE this product. At first I thought it might hurt my eyes because it is scents and definitely smells like…

You know how the saying goes, ‘Life is an adventure.’ Well it’s true. Each day is never what you exactly plan out. Yesterday I was so excited to announce that I’m officially the Editor-in-Chief of Original Piece Magazine. It’s a digital online magazine features fashion trends, beauty favorites, inspirational messages, and daily articles about life. I was so excited to find out about this new adventure. It’s something I’ve always worked hard so and something I’ve been doing for a while. What some people don’t know is I love writing. Writing about anything and everything and one day hope to…

I had an awesome time during this photoshoot and I love this photo. It reminds me to ‘Find Your Paradise,’ with this dress and with the whole atmosphere of the photo. This dress I wore I got as soon as the shoot was finished. It’s from Original Piece and I love the vintage style and the paradise print on this dress. I love that it’s a midi length (because it’s a perfect length for me) and I love that it’s a wrap style so I can adjust how it fits. In the shoot I was barefoot when I wore it, but…
