8 EVERYDAY MAKEUP FAVORITES- that I've loved for years!

1. Milk Hydro Grip Primer- Makes my makeup stay on ALL DAY!
2. Nars Light Reflecting Foundation-l've been wearing this foundation and this foundation only for YEARS! I love its medium coverage with a natural finish. Not too much, not too little. Just right.
3. Rare Beauty Blush in Joy- This is my all time favorite blush! I've repurchased it twice already!
4. L’Oréal Pais Infallible Makeup Setting Spray-This locks my makeup in and prevents transfer. IT WORKS! Thank me later!
5. Charlotte Tilbury Highlighter- This highlighter gives me just the right amount of glow!
6. Rare Beauty Bronzer- This is the perfect blendable bronzer for a summery glow all year round.
7. Sephora Collection Liquid Lipstick- I love the true red shade in 01. Stays all day and feels great on the lip, not drying! @Sephora
8. Lancome Hypnose Drama Mascara- I've been using the waterproof formula for years. I love that it keeps my lashes curled.

My dress is #gifted from Mac Duggal and what I love about them is that they have evening gowns available in extended sizes, thru US size 24. I’m wearing a size 16 and I would say it’s very true to size. #Macduggal

I LOVE these @Torrid jeans! They are the best pair of denim I’ve ever tried on. I haven’t found a pair of jeans that I love until now! These are amazing! I got the short but think I could’ve gotten the extra short. I’m 5’1” for reference.

Quince hosted a cocktail party with the theme being coastal and collected, so I opted for a head to toe look from @Quince

I’m wearing a white linen dress with a navy linen double breasted blazer. I paired it with some nude heels and my weenie dog purse I don’t think I’ve ever shared. I found my exact one on Etsy so I’ve linked it all in my LTK. I’m wearing an XL in the dress and a Large in the blazer.

My favorite dress is the @suesartor flounce dress. I’m wearing a size large and I love how lightweight and breezy the fabric is. It’s perfect for Texas summers!

LTKcon class was hosted by Free People Movement. The class was so energetic and fun. I definitely feel like I’ll be sore tomorrow! 😅😂

💪🏾My outfit is a chocolate brown Never Better 7/8th leggings along with the matching Win Win Sports bra. You can’t tell, but it’s a razorback, and both are such great quality! I also paired it with the heather grey My Time Tee, which is one of fp movement’s fan favorites.

💪🏾I’m wearing an XL in both but I think I might have been able to wear a Large. The fabric is buttery soft and perfect for yoga or pilates.

👟I still love my icy blue and white Nike and right now they are half off! I love that they are wide width friendly!

These @Spanx shorts come in multiple lengths but these are the 7” and they have a tummy control panel in the front that smooths everything out. I have 4 pairs of them! I’m wearing an XL and a large in this Oxford.

HIGH PROTEIN SNACKS GLP-1 FRIENDLY @Target

I’ve been obsessed with this clear whey protein by Oath. It’s got 20 grams of protein, only 100 calories per serving, and is the perfect refreshing beverage! My favorite flavors are the watermelon Fresca and mango pineapple!

@Target carries a variety pack so you can try their different flavors. This is a great way to see which one you like the best without having to buy a bag of just one flavor!

This @suesartor dress is a splurge but soooo gorgeous! I’m wearing a size large. I love their dresses. I have three and they all fit so well. The quality is amazing!

My boots are the @lucchese Roadrunner collab with Lela Rose

This style also comes in like a burnt orange but I just thought this color was so so pretty. If you know me, you know that I wear a ton of blues and navy.

I also love flowers and I loved the turquoise and green floral detail in this boot. These are absolutely gorgeous!

The Justine bag from @SEZANE is chef’s kiss! I opted for the raffia natural, but it does come in a few different colors and patterns. There’s also a mini option 🤩

🌸 HOME FRAGRANCE FAV 🌸
@Pura Smart Diffuser is a must have in my home! You can find it @Target !

🌸You can control your Pura by an App which allows you to adjust the intensity and the frequency. There’s even a light feature that turns different colors.

🌸 I love to have a clean scent during the day and a calming scent on in the evenings. Some of my fav scents are: Santa's Vanilla, Ocean Sea & Mist, and Cardamom Blossom

🌸 I also have the car diffuser and it keeps my car smelling fresh!

🌷This @Spanx butter yellow shift dress is so sooo pretty! It doesn’t have any stretch, and so I’m wearing an XL. I love the texture and it feels so luxe! #spanxpartner

🌷My navy cardigan is from Walmart from last season but I will link one similar.

🌷My scarf is Hermes and I love how scarves always add a colorful pop to an outfit. I have linked mine and similar ones at different price points that I’ve also been loving.

🌷My shoes are from @macys and they are the perfect floral mule for the summer!

🌷My bag is Chanel and can be borrowed from @Vivrelle .

1️⃣ A fan that’s rechargeable- I don’t know how many times I’ve been in a hot airport and my small but powerful fan has been my saving grace.
2️⃣ XL Pill Container with Clasp- This is large enough to hold up to two weeks of all Cedrric’s meds and my vitamins.
3️⃣ Travel Jewelry Case- All leather and comes in two sizes, but I found this one to be the perfect size and it can be monogrammed!
4️⃣ Cadence containers- I’ve used these for years and they are magnetic, portable, and air tight!
5️⃣ Charging banks- I’ll link both but the Anker one is my favorite because it’s mag safe and has a stand!
6️⃣ Noise Cancelling Headphones- I love my Apple one, but a great affordable option are these from JBL!
7️⃣ Silicone Makeup Brush Holder- I love that this silicone case has a magnetic closure and it’s washable.
8️⃣ Samsonite Luggage-I pack my luggage to 50 pounds, and I’ve taken it out of the country and it held up great!
