Spring Neutrals and a Video

01

Good Morning!  I’m looking out my window as I sit at my computer and I can see the pink buds on the trees and the leaves budding on my hydrangeas!  The grass is green and everything is looking like spring.  I’ve been sharing spring fashion for a while now, and today I’m sharing spring fashion and a little video about 3 products that I found on my Sephora run this past Sunday!  This video is one of 2 that I made this week.  The second is coming soon and is much longer…it’s about refreshing your summer wardrobe and having those important basic pieces.  I hope you’ll check back soon to watch!  In the meantime, I have more YouTube videos on fashion and food on my Crazy Blonde YouTube channel.

I’ve been reading about blurring creams for a while now, and finally bought one.  Blurring creams go under your makeup and fill in those tiny lines so your makeup looks smoother.  I’ve linked several blurring creams below and I think they are definitely worth trying.  I also bought a Clarisonic makeup blending brush that attaches to my Clarisonic and blends my makeup to look even smoother.  I love it!  I’ve been a fan of Buxom lip gloss for years and just bought their amazing new Powerplump Lip Balm.  It’s a plumping balm that feels so good going on the lips.  I’m going back to get more so I can stash one in every room and every purse.  It’s that good!

A leather (or faux leather) jacket is a great piece to have in your closet and can be worn almost all year.  I bought this jacket by Cupcakes and Cashmere several years ago and it is a staple in my closet.  I’ve worn it over a thick turtleneck sweater (picture below), a short sleeve tee, and as you see here over a blouse.  My blouse is by Equipment and is such a great neutral color…they call it camouflage.  Combined with white, it makes a crisp spring outfit!  My shoes are by Acquazzura and are several years old, I’ve linked similar below as well as the exact Equipment blouse.

Above is how I styled the same jacket for a winter look.  You can also see more fashion ideas here.

I’m headed to the mountains of North Carolina for a couple of days of rest and catching up with friends.  I’ll be sharing pictures on my Instagram stories, so be sure to check in!  Happy Wednesday!

      So funny because I sat on them today and broke them! Le Specs are great sunglasses and affordable unless you sit on them! Thanks so much for your comment Cheryl!
