Life Lately – April

dousedinpink — Mon, 24 Apr 2023 05:00:14 +0000

Hi Friends! Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend! On Saturday, I went downtown with friends for a 50th birthday celebration. We had dinner at Three Dots and a Dash, a cool Polynesian tropical bar. Then, I went to see Jagged Little Pill, the Alanis Morissette musical. Something about being in the city invigorates my soul, and it was the second time in a week I was downtown. So here’s Life Lately in April. Keep reading to see what I’ve been up to! Linking up with Shay and Sheaffer on Wednesday for What’s Up Wednesday. Laura Geller Beauty Luncheon I was invited to Laura Geller Beauty’s influencer luncheon last week and spent time with the fabulous Laura Geller, who is just lovely and so down to earth. The whole Blonde Squad attended and had a fun afternoon. The event was held at Cindy’s Rooftop inside the Chicago Athletic Club. If you’re not familiar, Laura Geller’s makeup is created for mature skin, and her palette was one of Oprah’s favorite things in 2022. What I love most about Laura Geller is her decision to only use models over 40 in their social campaigns to represent the brand. Laura…

Formulate Personalized Haircare Review

dousedinpink — Tue, 12 Feb 2019 12:00:00 +0000

Don’t you hate it when one of your favorite beauty products is discontinued, and you have to search everywhere to stock up before it’s gone forever? More and more brands have turned to customized beauty, so you don’t have to worry about that or waste money trying to find a product that works. Today I wanted to share my Formulate personalized haircare review. My color-treated hair is baby fine, a little frizzy, and lacks volume. When Formulate reached out to me and offered to create a shampoo and conditioner that would address all of my hair needs, I jumped on board! How Formulate works: Formulate directs you to their website, where you take a quiz that asks everything from your hair type to hair goals, styling, product use, activity, and environment. You even select your scent! From there, their hair wizard determines the current state of your hair, and then they match all of the environment, product, and lifestyle factors with ingredients they know to be effective. Formulate chemists will create a custom formula and ship it off to you. All ingredients are 100% sulfate-free, sodium-free, paraben-free, and animal cruelty-free, and they don’t use any substitutions. If…

Shearling vests make an appearance every fall and winter season and it’s no wonder, the combination of faux fur and leather is comfy and chic! It’s also a cozy alternative to a puffer vest. I finally decided that I needed a shearling vest in my closet and spotted this one at StyleWe. I always notice shearling vests in the camel color and love that the black is unexpected and a little edgy! Black and burgundy is another favorite color combination this season so I grabbed my burgundy booties and distressed black denim to pull this simple and chic look together.

Currently {June 2016}

dousedinpink — Tue, 21 Jun 2016 11:00:00 +0000

Does anyone else feel like the summer is flying by? I can’t believe my last Currently post was back in March! Here’s what’s been going on with me the past few months! Appreciating my good friend Laureen. She was sweet enough to come over and help me organize my closet. I didn’t think to take a before photo but believe me, it was a disaster. I now have a second closet in the guest room where I can rotate my seasonal clothes. We spent the morning drinking mimosa’s, listening to music and I rediscovered several pieces I had forgotten about! Feeling grateful to be working on the same team with my friend Lori. You can definitely feel isolated sometimes working on a virtual team. Luckily, we live close enough to meet for lunch every few weeks! We also got out for a networking event in April and two events in May! Working out with my daughter at the pool. Granted she laps me and swims about 4000 yards to my 1600 yard mile but it’s still fun to swim with her. Reading All of Us and Everything by Bridget Asher. I just started this book but so far it’s a fun read about…

My Secret to Radiant Skin

dousedinpink — Tue, 16 Feb 2016 12:00:00 +0000

Exfoliating is a beauty ritual that always gives me instant gratification. There is nothing better than the feeling of having super soft skin! I always thought for an exfoliator to be effective, it had to have a grainy and scruby texture. Instead, it was more likely to be abrasive and probably resulted in my skin being more irritated and aggravated in the long run. I have a few exfoliators that I love and one of them is NuPeel by Theraderm. Developed by a plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Theraderm Skin Care is a clinical grade, anti-aging skin care line that is simple, yet effective. Your skin plays a major role on how others perceive you. As you age, environmental factors take their toll on your skin. If you can restore skin health, a good amount of that damage can be reversed. Theraderm is dedicated to creating products that restore skin health, giving you a radiant appearance. NuPeel exfoliates with natural papaya enzymes and gently removes dead skin to reveal soft and fresh looking skin. It’s packed with natural ingredients including aloe, pineapple, grape seed, tea leaf and cucumber and it does not contain parabens! NuPeel works best if applied to clean, dry skin. After applying a…

I’ve always been a fan of tunics and I recently picked out this tribal print number from PinkBlush. The neutral color theme pairs with almost anything and the asymmetrical hem adds an interesting detail. The styling options are endless but today I thought it would be fun to show you how to style it from day to night. For running errands or lunch with friends, I paired this tunic with my favorite comfy leggings, tall boots and a simple initial necklace. Creating a look for girls night out or date night was easier than I expected. I swapped out my comfy leggings for leather, added fringe booties and the only other thing I needed was a…

Working from home, my everyday uniform consists of jeans, sweaters and scarves but I need to take it up several notches when I travel for work. Most often, I’m up at 4:00 am and headed out the door at 5:00 am for the airport. Staying comfortable and stylish on a travel day is always a challenge, especially when going right from the airport to an all day meeting. Balancing comfort and professional is not always easy. You want to still look put-together when you arrive at your destination.
