Friday Favorites

Taking outfit pictures with a tripod is hard, guys. I'm so used to my boyfriend taking pictures that tripods just don't work for me! After trying to snap this outfit yesterday, I ended up with 20 goofy pictures and a few pictures of my pretty new bag. Do you guys have any tips for tripods?!

It sure is a pretty bag though so I don't really mind showing you guys several photos of it today. I treated myself to it last week after I had been searching for the perfect cream satchel.
Outfit: Dress & Belt- Forever 21 Flats- H&M Watch- Nixon Bag- Kate Spade Cosmetic Bag- Forever 21

I haven't done a Friday Favorites in quite some time, so I thought I'd make a little list for you guys of things I'm currently loving/wishing for!

Exciting news! I was featured on LaurenConrad.com as Lauren's Chic of the Week! You can check out the post here!

These Revlon Just Bitten Balm Stain sticks. I currently own Honey, Lovesick, Cherish, Smitten, Romantic and Charm. I definitely recommend trying them! I found them through Ashley, you guys should check her out as well!

Swooning over these AG Polka Dot Ankle Stevie's. They must be mine. Also from the site, this dress paired with the pink belt in the last picture. Need!

A little peak inside my ASOS saved items: 123 and 4

All summer I've been keeping glitter ring fingers. My go to glitter: Butter London West End Wonderland.

This Twist Braid tutorial. I'm so bad at these for some reason but practice makes perfect right?

Favorite summer scents: this shower scrub in Hawiian Kukui, this perfume and of course- the smell of monsoon rain. 

And finally, Dahlia's summer film filled with the prettiest dresses. 

Oh! And some price drops in Shop My Closet. :)

  2. I'm going to be doing some self-portraits soon. I'm generally really bad at them. I'm hoping the flip around LCD on my camera will save me....or at least make sure I'm in the frame! Good luck!

  5. Congrats on being featured on laurenconrad! I'm so happy you were picked because I would have never found your super cute blog! :)

    And ugh, tripods suck, but my husband is a terrible photo-taker so I prefer a tripod over him, but I always feel super awkward taking photos of myself. Haha!

    Happy weekend!

  8. Remote timer is great. I also use a stick or something long and put it where I would be standing.

    Congrats again on being the Chic of the week! After seeing Taylor Swift rock those polka dot crops I am so trying to get pair somewhere!

  9. Such a cute outfit and a lovely purse!
    Do you use a wireless remote when shooting from your tripod? It really makes it easy and it is so small it will not even show on the pictures :)
    A Splendid Assemblage

  10. Found you through Lauren Conrad's blog, she featured me a few weeks ago and it did a lot for my blog as I'm sure it has done a lot for yours as well! Love your blog, so cute and clean!
