Summer Brights

As if I wasn’t already dying to go to the beach…now I want to go wearing giant rock necklaces and tribal crop tops.

This is my favorite look for summer. Nothing plays up a tan like red lips. My go-to red lip for summer is CoverGirl Lip Perfection in Flame.

I’ve spent the past six months wishing for summer and now I can’t believe it’s here. I love everything about it: the sun, the heat, the late nights, balmy weather, pool time, flimsy dresses, tan lines, fresh fruit…This one is especially special – it’s the summer of love.

Maria Dueñas Jacobs Roman Wedding

Maria Dueñas Jacobs
Maria Dueñas Jacobs is the accessories editor at Glamour Magazine. She was featured on Into the Gloss this week and I was immediately drawn to her natural look and easy beauty routine. A quick google took me to her wedding which was featured on Martha Stewart’s website. So, duh, I had to share.

Beach Baby

My model-muse, Lara Stone, channels Brigitte Bardot and heads to the beach. What’s not to love – aside from the extreme jealousy of her gorgeous figure?
