Beach Beauty Essentials

Aloha!!  Sorry for the lack of posts on the blog this week.  If you follow me on instagram, you know that I've been on vacay in Hawaii and the only thing that I've been putting any effort into is working on my tan :) 

We'll be leaving Kauai on Friday, and making a quick weekend stop in WA to visit some friends + family before heading back home to Miami next week.  I can't wait to share our pictures with all of you!

With that being said, I wanted to chat about a few of my beach beauty essentials that I use while I'm on holiday......

1. I'm obsessed with these Tom Ford sunnies that I picked up recently {here} //  2. A widetooth comb is essential since the saltwater seriously snarls my hair  3. Hope in a Jar SPF for face {here} //  4. Essie Mod Squad {here} is such a fun beachy color // 5. I religiously use It's a 10 Miracle Leave-In Product after I swim {here} // 6. Addicted to 'Smith's Rosebud Salve Balm' {here} //  7. Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Eyeliner [the best I've found] {here}  //  8. Waterproof sunblock  //  9. I always wear Estee Lauder Sumptous Extreme Waterproof Mascara {here} volume + staying power = winner! 

My beauty routine while on holiday is always super low key, I'm all about moisturizing + hydrating + protecting!  

Share any of your beach beauty must haves that you've discovered!  I'd love to hear :)

This Week In Pics

Hola chicas!  I'm so happy that its Friday for the simple fact that we're leaving for HAWAII this weekend!  Adams 30th birthday is next week [yes, I'm older than Adam by almost 2 years!] and I surprised him with a vacay in tropical paradise to celebrate :)  While I have been to the"Aloha State" many times [since I grew up on the west coast], Adam has never been so it will be an entirely new experience for him.  I'm so excited to get outdoors and do some hiking, sea kayaking, snorkeling, and really just explore the island of Kauai. There really is nothing quite like the beauty of Hawaii!

Please forgive me if my blog is a little silent next week, however, you can always follow me on instagram { andy_adler } to get a glimpse of our island adventures. 

Here's my past couple week in pics:

Cutest little shoes ever!  I'll finally get to meet my friends baby when we visit my hometown next weekend :)

I'm normally not a egg person (except for hardboiled which I LOVE!) but I was craving exactly this: two eggs + a TON of veggies w/ Ezekiel raisin toast

Wearing 7FAM denim, AllSaints tee & J.Crew clutch {available here}

One of my fave sweet treats - strawberry lemonade.

Healthy + yummy breakfast: low fat cottage cheese with grapefruit, pineapple, and blueberries.  

Wearing J.Crew tippi sweater {on sale here} over a white dress w/ Rag & Bone booties.

Such a sweet face :)

Wearing Joie silk tee, Rag & Bone denim, Joie lace up booties {get them here} and Chloe 'Marcie' satchel {here}.

Ezekiel toast + almond butter + bananas, with 2 eggs & fresh carrot juice.

Thanks so much for following & I hope you all have a beautiful weekend! xx

Found! The Perfect Wool Hat

Confession: my skin is having a moment this week. Its bad....like hideout-in-your-house-for-days-bad.  I'm not sure exactly what caused the worst breakout of the year, but thanks to a few quick cortisone injections from my dermatologist, I'm now on the mend.  Anyways, {I promise there is a point to all of this} on Monday, my enormous zits & I went to Anastasia @ Nordstrom for my usual brow appointment.  The brow counter happens to be directly next to the hats department which is where I found exactly what I needed: a super cute, perfect for fall wool hat to cover up the mountains that decided to take up residence smack dab in the middle of my forehead!

{{View purchasing info here.}}

The floppy brim is a perfect, classic size {not too big} and I love the tie detailing on the side.  Its Nordstrom's actual brand, and comes in 4 different colors {I'm contemplating the black one also!}.  This made in Italy cutie is 100% wool, and is ideal for the upcoming cooler months.  Its easy on the wallet as well, priced at $38!!  I'll definitely be wearing this on repeat this Fall, and I had to share this fab find with you ladies! :)
