Nordstrom Sale Beauty Picks
As the Nordstrom Anniversary sale continues (ends August 2nd), we can’t forget all the things we actually need to get, like beauty and skincare products. Sales like this is a great time to stock up on your favorite perfumes or lipstick at an amazing price. I already have Tory Burch’s perfume and get a lot of compliments on it. I use it for my daytime scent, as it has a hint of orange blossom to it. I have also heard wonderful things about Chloe’s “Love Story perfume. Since I hardly ever wear makeup, getting new products is always on the bottom of my list. Snatching up a great palette like this at a great price is so worth it. Especially when I need to wear a little more makeup for an event than just wearing mascara. When I do apply makeup, I always lean towards nudes. This Burberry ‘Nude Glow’ Set is perfect for me.
How To Get Motivated To Workout
Earlier this year I found out that my right hip is slowly deteriorating, which means some day in the future I will most likely have to have a hip replacement. It started hurting at the end of last year and I thought my hip was super sore or I slightly pulled a muscle. Now that I know of my problem, I have been pulling back a little on my workouts, modifying the movements and not working out as much because of the pain. It has been pretty frustrating and has made it hard for me to get motivated to workout. Last year I was on a huge workout kick where I was exercising 4-6 days a week, sometimes even twice a day, now I only workout 3 times a week. I feel the effects on my body from not being as active. Now I am trying to get back on track with my health– I have been nursing my hip pain for far too long. The break, or cut back, was definitely necessary as I relearn my body and it’s capability of what I can and can not do during a workout, but I have allowed this excuse to skip days when I should be more active. Since it takes a little more effort for me to get motivated these days, I thought I would share tricks and tips on what gets me to the gym.
Evening Look
I am always finding excuses to dress up. Whether it is a night out, fancy dinner, or an event, I love to dress to the nines. Ever since I saw this tonal-blue tile motif print shift dress from Dolce and Gabbana, I can’t stop thinking about how beautiful it is and that I have to have it. They made the print into different silhouettes, but the shift one I would wear more–although I am in love with this dress as well. The print also comes in a coat, and I almost fell to the floor when I saw it. Amazing. Well done Dolce and Gabbana.
