Photo Credit Dashing Diva We’re all adjusting to the new realities of sheltering at home. With non-essential businesses currently closed, routine beauty maintenance requires some new solutions. Here are some products I recommend. 1. I’ve talked to so many friends who are trying to take off their outgrown gel manicures. This all-in-one kit has everything you need for easy three-step removal. 2. Not ready to resort to boxed hair dye? This root concealer is a savior. 3. An at-ho


An Uplifting Balloon Movement
The ladies behind Mix + Mingle Events may have had to cancel their actual events for the foreseeable future, but they've still found a way to continue bringing people together.
To spread positivity and support local businesses, they've launched a movement inspired by their Westfield neighbors (the Roofener family, left, who created an elaborate outdoor balloon display to uplift their community).

Oil Training Hair is a Thing
While we are all quarantined at home, oil training our hair is the thing to do. So many girls I have talked to are doing it. The basis is that oil training is a technique where you slowly reduce the frequency of hair washes to get your scalp accustomed to not being rinsed often, naturally minimizing oil production. If you are oil training your hair these are great styles to try. A few of my favorite tricks to make hair look less greasy.


Puff Sleeves { The Style List}
I have been a fan of the puff sleeve for a long time. They make an outfit look style up. A simple top with a dramatic sleeve creates a whole look. Paired with jeans or a cute skirt and you are ready to go. Would you give it a try? #fashion #Fashion #Style #style #puffsleeves #tops #springtrend


Hair Bows
I keep seeing cute big bows styled in half up hair styles. I think it looks girlie but elevated at the same time. Bloggers like Danielle Bernstein of We Wear What can constantly be seen wearing one. If you have long hair or short hair it works. The key is to do a simple satin or silk bow that simply clips in. Give it a try for an updated hair style and an easy way to look finished. #Fashion #fashion #Style #style #hairbow #daniellebernstein #weworewhat #fendibow #pinkbow #bow


Get Yourself A Straw Basket Bag
Straw and wicker bags are the Summer's must have accessory. These basket bags are cute and will style up any outfit. I like it with a simple white flowy dress and also on the beach with your favorite bikini. Designers like Etienne Aigner have super feminine styles. I found this very affordable heart version on Etsy. #strawbag #basketbag #rattanbag #Fashion #fashion #style #Style #handbag #summer #summerbag #EtienneAigner
