May Favorites 2013

1. Too-Faced Natural Eye Palette- I picked this palette up this month and I'm absolutely in love with it! It's perfect for summer or any season really, and it's so easy to create so many looks! 

2. Maybelline One by One Mascara- I fell in love with this mascara last summer, and when I purchased it a few weeks ago my love rekindled. I love the way it defines lashes and the waterproof stays on forever.

3. Anastasia Brow Gel- I've been getting lazy with my eyebrows lately, and this gel is perfect. It's tinted so I don't really have to fill my brows and it keeps them in place. 

4. Wide Tooth Comb- After I loosely curl my hair, I've been loving just running a wide tooth comb through it to complete the look. The comb doesn't break my hair and it keeps the curls in tact.

5. Mid-Wedge Jack Rogers- These sandals are incredible! They're perfect for summer and I love how versatile they are. The souls are disgusting from my feet but other than that, I'm obsessed!

6. Light Wash High Waisted Shorts- Until this year I wasn't really a denim shorts kind of person, but I've been trying it out and I love the looks! They're super comfortable but super trendy at the same time!

7. Watermelon- Every spring I look forward to the return of fresh watermelon. It's so refreshing and crunchy!

8. Pinkberry Cookies and Cream- If you haven't tried this flavor, you're truly missing out. It's by far my favorite flavor and in my opinion Pinkberry's best since the release of Pomegranate.

What I've Been up To

Hey everyone! I hope you've all had a great Memorial Day weekend! I've been having a lot of fun, and I thought I'd show you what's going on. Hope you Enjoy

xoxo Morgan

This weekend I went down to my family's summer house in Osterville, Cape Cod. I had so much fun but the weather was awful.

Lately I've been dying to redo my craft space. As of now, all I have is a couple old tables in an unfinished basement. I'd love to put up a couple pink walls, frames, chandelier and use an antique dresser as my counter space. 

Tonight I ate the tastiest summer dinner! My absolute favorite things are bell peppers, so when I ate them grilled with grilled onions, grilled chicken, roasted potatoes, and corn on the cob, it was fantastic!

Finally, if I could live in any era, I'd definitely have to choose  the 1950s. I've always been so intrigued by the idea of becoming a house wife, wearing such fancy dresses, and dancing all night to swing.   

What's in My Beach Bag?

Hey everyone! Since summer is almost here, and a lot of you are already on Summer break, I thought I'd share my new beach bag with your and what I keep in it. You can also see my What's in My Purse post here. Let me know what you think!

Here's what my bag looks like, it is the Shoreline Tote from Lilly Pulitzer. I love the design, space, and durability of the bag, it's perfect for the beach! The description on my website also said it was great as a carry-on or for travel in general and I completely agree!

Here's a look on the inside. As you can see, It holds everything one might need and has a durable liner. I just adore the rope handles, as well. 

Inside, I carry the essentials:

• Beach Towel
• Magazines
• Baseball Hat
• Sunglass case (made by me:)
• sunglasses
• water bottle
• hair ties
• wide tooth comb (I broke mine upon aggressive combing)
• Sunscreen
• Wristlet
• Cup (not shown, but ideal for music playing) 
• Urban Decay de-slick Oil Control Setting Spray

Bonfire on the Beach

Some of my best summer memories have been spent on the beach in the evening. I love having campfires and spending time with my friends. If I were going to a beach bonfire, I think I'd wear something like this; simple, laid-back and cute. Obviously I probably wouldn't wear S'mores lip gloss if I was going to be eating them anyway, but if you have good s'mores memories wearing it later will take you back:) 

My Summer Beauty Wishlist

Today's post is all about what I'm most looking forward to wearing this summer!

Urban Decay De-Slick

This makeup setting spray is designed to mattify the skin and refresh your face during those hot summer days! 

Benefit Sunbeam

If you've read any of my previous posts, then you know I'm obsessed with Benefit Highbeam. When I heard about Sun beam, which is a bronze gold liquid highlighter, I was ecstatic! 

Makeup Forever Waterproof Eyeshadow

My summers are spent without schedules, so I never know when surprise plans will come up to go for a swim! But if ive already done my makeup, it's just gonna come off in the water. That's why I think this shadow stick will be perfect! They have an awesome color selection, my favorites are pearly turquoise and gold.

Urban Decay Baked

Not only is this bronzer's packaging just darling, but the warm color provides the perfect summer glow. I can't wait to pick this up!

Tarte Aquallius

I am definitely most excited about this product since I've been eyeing it for awhile. It's a beautiful bright red-coral lip shade that when I switched it, lasted over 24 hours! What more can I ask for during hot days? 

Hope you all enjoyed!
