Zaful Collaboration Pt. 2

While many of you know I love collaborating with brands and this is another segment to a post I had made previously "A Twist On The Little Black Dress". The dress below is from www.Zaful.com, while it is now winter time where I live I know that many of you will appreciate this post because of the weather in the cities many of you live.

This dress is a fun alternative to your average spring/summer maxi dress. It's great for family events or even a day out boating. The best part it's that the dress is a perfect combination between fun and flirty. It's a breezy material but also very outgoing style with two long slits on either side.

Don't forget to check out Zaful.com for more dresses just like this one and make sure to send me pictures if you do end up purchasing this item!

When I first received the packaged I kind of freaked out over how adorable the packaging is designed. In addition to the amount of detail and thought that is evident through the whole package.

The first item I saw was the 'Outline Saver'. This product is to be used for your undereyes, lips, and fine lines around your lips and eyes. I actually only tried out the product on my lips and was so surprised by the results. It basically acted as a lip plumper for my lips and I love it. It wasn't itching or made my lips red like other products I have tried out.

The second product that was included in the package was the 'B.B+B'. I absolutely LOVE this product. I have to be honest, at first I honestly had no clue what this product did but thankfully you can find a ton of youtubers and reviews online about the products. I quickly learned that this product was simply a BB cream with more of illuminating finish than a color base. I have been using a single pump of this whenever I wake up and feel like my face needs more highlight or a wake me up. The product has a pink tone to it so it make you look a bit more flushed and naturally highlighted which is always a plus.

The last goody I found in my package were these 'Miracle 24' Masks. The pack came with 3 sheet masks which all hydrate and tug you skin to get a smoother looking finish. 

I'd really like to thank Bioxidea for sending me these goodies. They are certain a company I will be buying from in the future and I'm so happy I was able to try out and experiment with new products outside of my comfort zone.

COLOR BLOCKING, yes it's still a trend.

This summer season of 2016 is all about color blocking. Whether you see it in bathing suits, two piece sets or t-shirts it's everywhere. This dress which is from Romwe.com is all about following the summer trend. Not only is it THE most comfortable day dress it's also a great pairing of two colors. The bright orange in the middle causes the dress to pop but the baby pink above and below give a great contrast. Allowing the dress to have a laid back look. I personally have seen a ton of color blocking dresses that you can only wear out at night or for events. This one on the other hand can be worn out during the day to run errands or even for a picnic. I paired the baby doll dress with some espadrille sandals from Franco Sarto.

 In addition, if you wanted to amp up the laid back look I would add a neutral small bag or a colorful woven clutch which would create a more boho look.

If you enjoyed reading this type of post all about fashion and styling let me know in the comments and I will make sure to continue to create these types of posts for you all.
