..New Essie Favorites for Summer

Lights | Saturday Disco Fever | In the Cabana

I am a true Essie fan through and through.  Their colors are always really fun and right on vibe with the season.  That being said, I have to admit that I kinda get sick of my old tried and trues. While not all of these shades are new to the shelves, I discovered three new (to me) colors that really feel fresh.

While at the local nail salon I fell in love with the pretty pink shade "Lights." It's bright and summery but not highlighteresque. The orange, "Saturday Disco Fever," is a neonish orange that manages not to scream "Jersey Shore," and I picked up "In the Cabana" on a whim at my local drug store and it quickly became my new number one. It's a really great alternative to the ever popular "Mint Candy Apple" or Turquoise and Caicos." Is it normal to have this much extensive knowledge about nail polish? I think I might have a problem..

..Black & Yellow

The deets: J.Crew blazer & pencil skirt; Steve Madden bag; Ray-Ban sunnies; H&M earrings, Express blouse; Enzo Angiolini shoes. Photos c/o Lindsay.

Being in stuffy work wear can sometimes be a drag and make me feel roughly a million years old so I keep things feeling a bit more youthful with fun earrings and a side braid to balance the vanilla taste of my black pencil skirt and peep toes. Spicy, but totally acceptable. Right? Right.

..The Anthropologie Lipstick Holder

 

I don't know if it's because I'm moving in a few weeks and I have home products on the brain or what, but this little "Vestige Lipstick Holder" from Anthropologie is just the cutest thing. The perfect way to keep your seasonal favorites out in a beautifully organized way. I know I'm always looking for the one shade I can't seem to find, so aside from being super chic, it would also be totally helpful!

..Bowed Peep Toes

The deets: Banana Republic blouse & necklace (similarish); earrings c/o Giando Massi; J.Crew pencil skirt; Ray-Ban sunnies; Michael Kors watch; eBay shoes (fancier).

Last summer I was in a wedding for one of my besties and was given the freedom to buy whatever nude shoes I wanted to match the bridesmaid dress. I obviously tasked myself with finding the perfect pair that was fancy enough to rock in a wedding but also a small reflection of my personality (as you don't have much room for personal style in matching dresses). I went months with out finding anything that jumped out at me and finally found these previously loved (let's just say they're "vintage") beauties on eBay like literally three days before the big day. I still love them and wear them all the time at work. What a win of a purchase.

..Gold Detailed Sandals

Brown DV | Brown Target | Gold DV | Gold Target | Black DV | Black Target

One of my favorite pairs of summer shoes are my DV by Dolce Vita hot pink "Archers" last seen here. I just love the gold metal detailing that makes a really basic design just a touch more glam. DV is such a great brand for summer sandals and actually isn't too pricey (starting at about $70). Want to know what's even better? Target totally ripped off almost ALL of their designs and is selling them all for under $23. Who's making a Target trip tonight? [insert raised hand emoticon here]
