LWD (Little White Dress)

Hey y’all!

So we all have our favorite LBD (little black dress), but I also love a good LWD (little white dress) and think it’s a great alternative in the spring and summer months.

 I have more than a couple in my closet and I am always on the lookout for more. When shopping for white dresses there’s a few things to keep in mind, as white can present some challenges. (These are good tips to keep in mind when buying anything white.) For starters, many white dresses are ETREMELY sheer! Don’t let this discourage you from a dress, just be aware. I like to check the dress out in very bright light to test this. If it is sheer, invest in a good slip and you’ll be good to go. Another thing to be aware of with white clothing, especially if it’s on the tighter side is that it is NOT forgiving. If black conceals everything white does the exact opposite. With that being said, don’t be afraid to go up a size when it comes to white.

I love adding bright accessories to white dresses. I think it gives them a real summery feel as you can see below with my teal statement earrings and pink lips.

Unfortunately, my dress is no longer available but I have linked a TON of other LWD options below.

Urban Decay Setting Spray

Happy Friday Eve! I’m so happy it’s almost the weekend.

 Today I’m going to tell y'all about a product that will keep your makeup looking fab all the way through work, happy hour, and then some.

I use to use the Urban Decay De-Slick Setting Spray and honestly, I don’t know why I ever stopped. This stuff is amazing. I spritz it on when my make-up is done and it keeps it looking fresh all day and all night! The main purpose of this formula is to keep your makeup from “melting”. That means preventing shine and keeping that great matte look I have when I leave the house. I can’t wait to use this stuff in the middle of summer, here in Florida!

If your makeup melting isn’t an issue there are three different formulas, De-Slick, All Nighter, and Chill in case you deal with other problems.

 I hope y’all have a great Thursday and I’ll be back with my first Valentine’s Day post on Saturday!

P.S. Ignore the shirt change. I didn't like how the first one was photographing…really I didn't like how either was photographing.
