I'm obsessing over these cutout tops right now. It really is all in the details, and the perfect way to make your white tee + jeans irresistibly chic. Also, let's face it, if you live in the midwest it's not cooling down anytime soon. Plus, I'm on a total white kick right now. So obviously I had to recreate this look for you guys. I love pairing a crisp white top with a bright pink lip and pump to create a fun, feminine look.

Ps. I've been on a hunt for the perfect foundation lately. I've tried so many different ones, from drugstore to designer. I have to say I think I've finally found the one! I'd heard so many good things about Make Up Forever 'Ultra HD' Foundation. And oh, my.. gosh.. love at first try. It's a natural finish, which is good for me because while my skin is usually normal, I do get oily from time to time. I'd love to know what you guys think of it!

Enjoy the rest of your Friday babes!

This breezy maxi is perfect for the blazing hot weather we're having right now. Plus I love anything striped. Today's post is going to be a little less about fashion and a little more personal, I hope you don't mind!

23. One day I hope to design my own clothing line

I could not be happier for the weekend to get here. My plans include not moving from the sofa with a cuppa tea, exciting I know.  More excitingly, the Nordstrom sale is still going strong and there are tons of good buys left for fall. This summer has been so gloomy and rainy, and now it's like 100 degrees, so I'm seriously ready for some fall weather. Plus I love a good knit cardi and sweaters! Anyways back to the sale. Below is a round-up of my fav beauty products and must-have accessories, including a super cute pair of pumps I cannot say No to! Don't forget you've got until Monday, August 3rd before prices go up.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm really gravitating towards white right now. Probably because it goes so well with denim. Plus it's ultra summery, and so is this tank dress! Which, by the way, is on sale for SEVEN BUCKS. I could live in this dress during the summer time. The fabric is so soft and light weight. I did find that it ran a little big, I'd recommend getting a size smaller than your usual size. You can easily get extra wear out of this dress by taking it from day to night with a pair of heels, and swap your denim for leather.

Catch you guys later. If you don't already, be sure to follow me on Instagram @HAUTESINCE92!

It's been raining for what seems like forever now. My rainy Sunday morning has consisted of coffee, strawberry pancakes, and online shopping. I found this super cute print midi dress from Topshop and I fell in love. If you need some inspo on how to style your midi dresses take a peak at what I'd wear with this one... or should I say what I Will wear it with once it arrives :) I also picked up these gladiator sandals for under $100! Midi dresses are seriously perfect for summer, so I've linked a few others I love below.

Happy lazy Sunday!

Anybody else in major need of a vaca? My boyfriend and I work around the clock, and I'm feel-ing it! Sometimes you just NEED to get away, ya know? For those of you wondering I do work a full time job, in addition to writing Haute Since 92. Plus between he and I, we've got another big project in the early stages of development. So to say the least we are busy people. Our calendars are marked for the end of October for a trip to Austin, Texas. If you guys haven't been, you need to go! One. Amazing eats. Two. Great people. Three. Tex-Mex (oh wait I already said food.) I love going new places and a meeting new people, it's one of my favorite things to do. I have a long list of places I want to visit, and I'm chopping at the bit for my boyfriend to take me back home to England.

Anyways, on to the outfit! This is a variation of my standard travel outfit. Shoes that are easy to slip out of, a comfy tee, a jacket or sweater, and a hat. Keep it stylish with accessories like a watch and a nice leather weekend bag. A few things I never travel without are a good pair of sunnies, makeup wipes, mascara, and headphones! One last recommendation I have when it comes to finding a place to stay on your travels is to use Airbnb. This saved our wallet last trip, plus it's was a great way to meet new people.

Now I definitely feel like planning a weekend trip, maybe New York or Chicago? Bye babes!

One of my favorite summer looks is a slouchy tee paired with destroyed denim. Comfortable and stylish, at the same time? Yes please! You can't beat a classic white tee with blue jeans. Put a fresh spin on this look by tying a knot, or tucking in the front of your slouchy tee for a more casual vibe. Oh and you guys need to check out the new One Eleven line by Express for the most perfect, soft casual tops. I will be adding all of these pieces to my wardrobe asap! I also l-o-v-e black on brown, don't be afraid to mix these colors! You can easily dress this color combo up for a night out. Another one of my fav summer looks is cut off shorts with a lightweight duster cardi. Playing with different lengths will take your laid-back look up a notch.

That's it from me loves, hope your week is off to a good start!

Happy Tuesday loves! I'm all about getting extra wear out of my outfits. Down below are some really simple ways to take your fav summer dresses from dawn to dusk. Or if you're just in the mood to spruce up your summer wardrobe keep scrolling!

Achieving that perfect dewy summer glow can be tricky sometimes. So here are a few tips and some of my fav products for skin that glows from within. Step one, start with a primer that's hydrating and illuminating. If you feel like splurging on a new product this summer, make it Tatcha luminous dewy skin mist. This stuff is uhhh-mazing (this is how Kim K achieves such a perfect dewy complexion, need I say more?) Next, use a foundation that has a satin or luminous finish, basically stay away from a matte foundation. L'oreal's Lumi line has been a part of my daily makeup routine for the past month. If you're looking for a primer and foundation that wont break the bank these are it! Next, go in with bronzer and liven that skin up, I typically apply mine with a big fluffy brush rather than contouring. Now if you're looking to take your summer glow to the next level I highly recommend BECCA pressed powders, they are the perfect shimmery (not glittery) finish. Finally, no matter what look I'm going for I always set my makeup with Urban Decay Chill Makeup Setting Spray. This just feels so nice and refreshing on the skin and it locks your makeup in all day. Voila! Perfect summer skin is just that easy.
