Warmth

From reading my blog, you've probably already learned this, but I HATE the cold weather. I hate chapped lips, cold fingers and toes, and dry skin. So when my mom asked where I wanted to go for Thanksgiving my answer was simply, "anywhere warm." I was not made for the cold weather!

So, the end destination? The Ritz-Carlton in Key Biscayne, Miami

Our little friend wanted to share the sunshine with us poolside. 

"Brother sister bonding or organized chaos? You decide."

Tanning lotion: Island Company

Bikini: +Victoria's Secret 

Ok, moment of full disclosure, the Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer is the source of 99% of my summer tan. The sun greets me in the form of a sunburn rather than a tan. This tanning oil from the +Island Company, however is a game changer. The Islander Dark Tanning Oil with spf 6 is a triple threat. Not only does it deliver results quickly, but it also smells like piña colada while simultaneously moisturizing your skin with beneficial ingredients like cocoa butter, aloe vera, vitamin a, vitamin c, and vitamin e. Not completely sold yet? Keep reading... I also get bad eczema due to the cold weather, and this product help soothe my irritated skin after the first use.

Until next time!

  Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder

The Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder honestly performs magic tricks. It's a must have beauty product.

Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes

 The Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes make taking off my makeup after school, and before my workout, a cinch. 

Thermal Spring Water

This is the best mineral-rich water mist for softening and relieving sensitive skin on the market.

 Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream  

The Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream is a "lightweight gel-cream that instantly quenches and continuously hydrates skin."

LUSH Ocean Salt Face And Body Scrub

I've been using the LUSH Ocean Salt Face and Body Scrub for about a year now. "It is a vodka infused cocktail for bright, fresh skin." This product not only removes unwanted dead skin cells, but also hydrates with avocado and coconut.

Rachel Zoe + UGG

It's no secret, I HATE cold weather. I've never been a big fan of snow and would be perfectly happy living in 80 degree weather year round. However, to my dismay, we can't go straight from fall to spring. 

Fashion stylist turned designer, Rachel Zoe has a trick up her sleeve however to make me hate the cold a little less. She styled six looks for UGG to promote their new fall arrivals. Below are two of my favorite looks I would wear in a heartbeat.
