Minted: Graphic Tees
Top: Minted graphic tee; Jacket: Old Navy Utility Jacket; Jeans: 7 for all Mankind; Shoes: JSlides I stumbled upon Minted’s graphic tees when shopping for photos for our home. Every so often, Minted hosts a t-shirt design competition of which customers can buy the winner’s design. I bought this NYC tee awhile ago, but I think it’s a fun concept and certainly very unique (almost one of a kind!). One word about the fit though. It is VERY boxy, and unfortunately, because of this, I won’t purchase another until the fit is more uniform with other tees. Mine fits somewhere in between a normal tee and a crop top (a…

Oversized Sweater + Elbow Patches
Oversized Sweater: Free People; Jeans: 7 for all Mankind; Cami: Nordstrom Headband: Stoney Clover Lane; Watch: Daniel Wellington I decided that today I should trade in my comfies and actually get properly dressed in this oversized sweater. I love the elbow patches, which is almost entirely why I bought it. Wear it off one shoulder and include a headband (very “in” right now) for a beautifully feminine look! The link to the sweater is a close match. XOXO Do you feel influenced yet? (follow me at carissa_cruse)

Soludos: Excellent Travel Shoes
Shoes: Soludos Day of the Dead slip-on, Soludos Llama slip-on; Shirt: Etsy; Jeans: 7 for All Mankind I heard about Soludos from, you guessed it, Instagram. I was immediately drawn to the brand because of the amazingly adorable fuzzy terry cloth images on these slip-ons. The company’s creativity stuck with me, and again I was haunted by the shoes, until I relinquished all control and bought a pair. Once I bought one pair and experienced the soft cork footbed and velvet outer layer, I then purchased a second pair. The first pair I bought was the Day of the Dead skull slip-ons and then the Llama pair. I even bought…

Working Remote – the New Workplace Profesh
Tops: Georgetown Sweatshirt, Nike Sweatshirt, Basic Pink Long Sleeve; Leggings: Lululemon Wunder Under Crop High Rise Leggings; Shoes: Uggs in Chestnut This is my first week working from home due to the pandemic. I love working from home. I am more productive, and I am way more calm (excellent for your mental health!). And who wouldn’t be in a better state of mind when you get to wear loungewear all day! This is my new workplace professional look! Instead of my black pants and skirts, I’ve traded them in for a full rotation of Lululemon and other athletic wear. My sweatshirts are from ages ago, but I linked to similar styles. I also received my…

Tula Skincare – Primer Gel
Primer Gel: Tula Skincare brighten up smoothing primer gel I first started wearing makeup when I went to college. Until then, my face was bare, so I feel like I am playing catch up on the makeup front. I, by no means, am an expert in makeup, but I do try to pick up a tip here and there to use on myself. When I find something I like, I’ll share it with you! I recently watched a makeup tutorial and heard about Tula’s products (I might be a little late in the game but better late than never), specifically the primer gel. I was intrigued because of how hydrating it…
