Cute and Affordable Fall Fashion With Chicwish

Sweater: Chicwish (c/o) / Cami: Express / Jeans: JCrew
Shoes: Sam Edelman / Handbag: Saint Laurent
Necklaces: Kate Spade & DFTI Boutique (Similar)

Now that the temperatures are dropping and fall is in full swing, I thought I would share a review of some items I received from an online store called Chicwish. I am always looking for new places to shop (because let’s be real the variety in shopping stores in Philadelphia isn’t the greatest!) and I’ve definetly found a new online store that I absolutely love!

So a little more on the brand itself, Chicwish is a fabulous online store that caters to the “young generation with a distinct sense of chic style, while keeping with our great quality and affordability.” Chicwish has so many beautiful and fun styles - the options are honestly endless! I had a great experience with them and the shipping/delivery was very fast as well!

This pom pom open knit cardigan in beige is soo cozy and I love the detailing. I paired the cardigan with a silky cami from Express (they come in soo many colors!) and kept the look neutral with jeans and beige heels. I am wearing a size small for reference. The sweater comes in so many other colors such as lavender, wine, army green and pink.

The Amiable Blossoms crochet top with bell sleeves has got to be one of my favorite blouses from Chicwish. This top makes quiet the statement with its crochet detailing and bell sleeves. I also like that the blouse is monochrome so it’s so easy to pair with just about anything! I am wearing a size small for reference and the blouse also comes with a white camisole.

Last but not least the Escape the Ordinary Pearls Knit Sweater in peach is the coziest sweater and will definetly be on repeat for the fall with its pretty pearl details. This sweater also comes in Dusty Blue, Black and Army Green. I am wearing a size small for reference.

Thank you to Chicwish for sponsoring today’s post.

Knotted Knit Dress

Dress: Club Monaco / Greece Sandal: Steve Madden
Purse: Chanel (Mini rectangle) / Sunglasses: Quay

Gone are the days of 90-degree weather, humidity (and crazy hair days), beach days and hello to the cool crisp days of fall filled with yummy pumpkin spice lattes, changing leaves and Halloween (who doesn't love the 31 nights of Halloween movies?!). Most importantly we bring out our cozy sweaters, riding boots, and the endless layers that have been stored away for months in our closets.

This knit dress from Club Monaco is a perfect transition piece from summer to fall by just changing up the accessories. If I was to wear this look again for the fall season I would throw on a leather jacket and white sneakers or over the knee boots. I also love the knotted style and how comfortable the dress is. I hope Club Monaco comes out with more colors right now it only comes in the grey.

Are you ready for cooler temps and fall weather?

What to buy from the Fall 2018 Sephora VIB Sale

The infamous Sephora sale is back for the second time this year! If you haven’t heard the sale at Sephora started last Friday for the fall season! All levels (Yes ALL levels!) – Sephora Rouge, VIB and Beauty Insider can shop the sale of the season!

The reason this sale is so awesome is that department stores will never give you this much of a discount off of beauty products! So if you’ve been thinking of splurging on the Dyson Hairdryer or T3 Styling Wand now is the time to buy those investment pieces.

How to Shop the Sephora Sale

First off, you need to be a member of the Beauty Insider program (you can sign up here).

The way the sale works it’s in a tiered format:

To receive 20% off Items:

• Rouge members – Receive 20% off August 24 – September 3 in store and online with code YESROUGE

To receive 15% off Items:

• VIB members – Receive 15% off August 30 – September 3 in store and online with code YESVIB

To receive 10% off Items:

• Beauty Insiders – Receive 10% off August 30 – September 3 in store and online with code YESINSIDER

If you aren’t familiar with the tiers here is a run down on how it works. The top tier is VIB Rouge which is for those customers that spend $1,000 a year. The next tier is VIB for customers who spend $350 a year. The third tier is Beauty Insider which is for any customers in the program who spend less than $350 a year. 

What to Buy from the Sephora VIB Sale - Top 10 Items
 

1. T3 Styling Wand - This curling wand does WONDERS to your hair and creates long lasting curls! I always struggle with curls falling out soon after I've curled my hair so this item is definitely in my shopping cart! What's even better is that this comes in a set of THREE barrels so you get more for your money!

2.  Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer - Alright ladies, how many of you HATE blowdrying your hair? I know I definitely fall into that category with my long hair! The Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer has been such a hot item since it came out with its high-speed, powerful, brushless digital motor and intelligent heat control for shine. I own a Dyson Hair Dryer and I LOVE IT! If you have any questions about this hair dryer or want a review on it please let me know in the comments or send me an email!

3. Slip Silk Pillowcase - Alot of people swear by silk pillowcases and I'm ready to pull the trigger on this one! Traditional pillowcases damage delicate skin and hair over time. Silk is more gentle on your skin and hair as it is natural, hypoallergenic, dust mite-resistant, and allows skin to breathe.

4. Drunk Elephant LALA Retro Whipped Cream - Drunk Elephant is one of the top skincare brands right now and it's no surprise as the brand is committed to using only clean ingredients. This product in particular is an amazing moisturizer that rescues dry, dull skin while slowly delivering a steady dose of barrier moisture throughout the day and night. 

5. Caudalie Micellar Cleansing Water - Lately I’ve been super careful what to use on my skin and micellar water is right up my alley. It’s super easy to remove makeup, cleanse, and tone all in one with micellar water and that’s why this item is on my top 10 list. The formula is made by organic grape water, chamomile extract, and plant glycerin. It’s also a great item to throw into your gym bag and can use a cotton pad or hands to use.

6. Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask - One of the hottest products in the blogger community, this mask does not disappoint. I love how thick the mask is and how hydrating it is (definitely great for those that have dry and dull skin). This mask is also free from harmful ingredients and is also vegan.

7. Anastasia Beverly Hills Norvina Eyeshadow Palette - During the Sephora sale I always make it a point to pick up at least one new eye shadow palette! This palette is beautiful with 14 shades ranging from bold and bright mattes to soft pastel shimmers. It's perfect for day to night!

8. Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder - This loose setting powder is the KEY to setting my makeup especially under my eye area. I use this setting powder to set my under eye makeup so it doesn't crease. I love that it comes in a mini travel size which I bought as part of the sale so I use it on the go!

9. Foundation - There are so many foundations out there but one that I have been wanting to try is the Fenty Beauty by Rihanna which is a soft-matte long-wear foundation that comes in 40 shades! My go-to foundation is the Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Long Wear Foundation which is a long-wear foundation and lasts for up to 24 hours (you can read my review here)

10. Chanel perfume - Okay ladies, when does perfume EVER go on sale? I have both the COCO Mademoiselle and the CHANEL N5 they are both amazing. I always make sure to stock up on perfumes during each sale and cologne for my husband as well. He loves the Bleu De CHANEL which smells so good!

I hope you enjoyed this type of post of what's in my Sephora cart!

Will you be shopping the sale and picking up anything? I would love to hear your thoughts!

Little White Dress

Dress: ASOS / Wedges: Dolce Vita (Similar) / Clutch: Valentino
Laur Earrings: Anoki Boutique (c/o) / Bela Cuff: Anoki Boutique (c/o)

Everyone knows about the LBD (little black dress) but how about this seasons LWD (little white dress)? Summer is the time to wear white because after-all, you shouldn't wear white after labor day (or so the saying goes). I love that this little white dress is so simple yet chic, with its cold shoulder detail and delicate embroidered eyelet pattern that screams summer. 

I paired this look with some amazing jewelry from Anoki Boutique. The earrings are the "Laur" earrings which are decorated with crystal elements and sea form opal stones. These are about 3" in length. The open cuff is the "Bela" cuff which is an open cuff with 2 round cut stones surrounded by a halo of pave crystals. Both pieces are absolutely beautiful and really adds a nice touch to any outfit! You can snag some pieces for yourself by using code "GET20" for 20% off your purchase!
