I have been head over heels in love with this little romper ever since I bought it! While on the hunt for a pair of short overalls, I instead stumbled upon this little romper and have found that I actually like it even more than overalls! :) While I love the look of a cute pair of overalls, I’m super picky about my clothes being comfortable and every pair of overalls I’ve tried always pulls and tugs in a bunch of weird places that make them uncomfortable to wear fore more than a couple of hours.
This romper on the other hand, is light, flowy and feels as breezy as a dress :) I love discovering alternative pieces like this one because I can style it exactly as I would a pair of overalls - but the fact that it’s really a comfy romper makes the outfit a little more unique! Plus, it's the perfect outfit for a busy day enjoying the summer weather - and who doesn't love that? ♥
BeautyFix: July 2017
BeautyFix is a monthly skincare, makeup, and haircare subscription box created by DermStore. A monthly subscription is $24.95 per box and a one-time box purchase is $34.95. Most items in the box are either full or deluxe sample size products.
Daily Concepts: Your Facial Micro Scrubber | Full-Size $8
This facial scrubbing towel was a little bit too rough on the skin for me. Since I use a good number of exfoliating washes and gels, I didn’t really feel like I needed another method of exfoliation. I do love the thought put into the product, though. The little scrubber comes with a suction cup that allows you to attach it to the wall of your bathroom - very handy 😃
Jane Iredale: Purepressed Eyeshadow | Full-Size $30
The standout feature of this eyeshadow was definitely the packaging! Despite it being a sample size eyeshadow, the product was still packaged in a beautiful gold case with a small mirror!
Erno Laszlo: Light Controlling Lotion | Full-Size $55
This “light controlling lotion” is actually a toner that is meant to remove dirt and oil and brighten your complexion. Toner is already a part of my regular routine so this was a great product fit for me - but to be honest, I can’t really tell the difference between different brands of toner! My only complaint on this product is that the smell of the toner is very powerful and really hits you in the face when you first open the container.
Show Beauty: Premiere Finish Spray | Full-Size $35
I am normally not big on receiving hair products in my subscription boxes since my hair usually doesn’t react much to hair products but I was actually pleasantly surprised by this hairspray by Show Beauty! I always expect hairsprays to feel a little bit crusty but this finishing spray was actually extremely light, not crusty at all, and comes out in a nice fine mist.
Peter Thomas Roth: Cucumber Gel Mask | Full-Size $52
I’ve heard tons of great things about the Peter Thomas Roth collection so I’ve loved getting to try this product out! This one contains aloe vera and is meant to help boost elasticity. This line’s masks are definitely on the pricier side so I love getting the opportunity the product before I decide whether to invest all of that money into it!
Glytone: Exfoliating Body Wash | Full-Size $33
This product was probably the only flop for me this month, simply because it’s not a product that I need at this time. I much prefer the idea of a moisturizing, creamy body wash so an exfoliating body wash just wasn’t that appealing.
Vichy: Mineral 89 | Full-Size $29.50
This product from Vichy is a gel moisturizer that contains hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is one of my all time favorite skincare ingredients because it provides moisture to the skin but also doesn’t feel greasy and soaks into the skin extremely quickly. I already use hyaluronic acid regularly in my skincare routine vai Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost Water Gel but given that the price point of the Vichy product is only $10 more, I might have to give this full size product a go!
Skin and Co Roma: Truffle Therapy Eye Concentrate | Full-Size $66
I always love receiving products that I’ve just put on my “To Buy” list and this eye cream came at exactly the right time! Although I haven’t noticed too much of a difference between this eye cream and any other eye cream I’ve used in the past, I love getting to explore new brands.
Skinceuticals: CE Ferulic | Full-Size $165
I have to be honest with you guys. I can’t really give a review for this product because I lost it! 😔 Little sample size products are great for trying out new things and great from bringing on vacation but the major con is that they’re all so small it’s hard to keep track of them! This skinceuticals is a serum that contains antioxidants and vitamin C that is meant to help with fine lines and wrinkles. I’m very excited to try it….once I manage to locate it in the chaos that is my apartment 😛
Overall, I’m still really happy with my BeautyFix subscription! It’s definitely a skincare lover’s dream subscription box and I am thoroughly enjoying getting to test out all of these different brands and formulas! What do you think of your BeautyFix box? What’s your favorite beauty subscription box? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
Classic Polka Dot
Dress: H&M / Bag: Target / Watch: Charming Charlie's / Sunglasses: Target / Shoes: Payless

One classic combination that always seems to work for me is a black and white polka dot piece! It's professional enough for work and business casual events yet playful enough for a relaxed day with friends, so you really can't go wrong :)
I feel like I've completely forgotten about my dresses this summer - the weather in Madison has been so unpredictable that oftentimes I dress for practicality (read: yoga pants + sweatshirts) instead of wearing all of the pretty dresses I actually own! Summer in Wisconsin is so short though that I really need to get back on the sundress bandwagon :) What are some of your favorite go-to combinations? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
