Lately the temperatures have been almost unbearable. 116 and 117 during the day, and nothing below 90 or high during the night. Every once and awhile, though, the clouds darken, the wind picks up, and rain comes down from the sky to cool down my big city. I’m always thankful when monsoon roles around, as I don’t think I could survive without a little break from the sweltering heat.
For the past few days I’ve been sticking to light layers, and a practically no-make routine. I burn pretty easily in the sun, so I always wear sunscreen, but lately I’ve been staying away fro mascara and face make-up. Some days it’s just nice to go make-up free and give my skin a little breather.
My sweet sponsor Threadcase sent me this pretty dress. I really love the stripes, and the breeziness of fabric. I had fun twirling around in the monsoon winds we were having, and felt very feminine and pretty. I just love how clothes can affect your mood. If I’m ever feeling crummy I love to put on something pretty and get an iced coffee. Almost always my mood instantly improves. The power of darling clothes and iced coffee is truly amazing!
During this holiday weekend I am escaping to norther Arizona to visit my parents. I’m hoping to go on a mini-adventure through a nearby forrest! The weather up there is definitely much cooler, so I’m hoping to get some fall outfits in! Sweaters, tights, boots! ECK! I can’t wait!
