JORD Wood Watches + Fall Plaid

Is anyone else so excited for Fall to come?! I found this plaid dress and just knew I had to pick it up because it embodies the feeling of pumpkins, Thanksgiving, and golden leaves :) Ryan and I were sent these JORD wood watches and they go perfectly with our Fall looks! 

My Fieldcrest watch is made of Maple and Zebrawood, and Ryan's is the awesome Dover watch which is made of Koa wood and has all the gears showing. They are the perfect accessory to keep us on time for all the busy-ness that comes with Ryan resuming BYU full-time this semester and for me getting busier at work. I love how these watches are so lightweight! I can hardly feel mine on my arm, but I love how it's there to keep me on schedule. 


 

JORD watches would make the perfect gift! Anniversaries, birthdays, and it's never to early to start thinking about Christmas ;) High quality watches, that are impeccably made and packaged. Check out which JORD watch makes your wishlist!

Whenever I'm overwhelmed, one of my favorite escapes is Target late at night. No one is there, it's quiet and oddly soothing. Not only do I love to peruse Target by myself...but I love treating myself to Burt's Bees beauty products. They are made with natural ingredients which gives our skin the nutrients it needs. All Burt's Bees products are 99% or 100% natural, only using ingredients that nature gives us! 

On my most recent lone Target adventure, I picked up Burt's Bees Cleansing Oil, Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Day Lotion with Clary Sage, and Burt's Bees Replenishing Pomegranate lip balm. WINTER IS COMING! Haha I hope at least one of my readers get's that reference, but in all seriousness the cold and dry Utah weather is coming quickly and I need to prepare! 

I love how oil products have become so popular in beauty care over the past year, so I had to try out this new Burt's Bees Cleansing Oil. It removes dirt and make-up, doesn't leave a greasy/oily residue, and left my skin so soft! This Cleansing Oil is made of natural moisturizers such as Argan and Coconut oils.  

Step One
Wash and dry hands to ensure no grime is transferred to your beautiful face :) 

Step Two
Gently massage the Burts Bee's Cleansing Oil onto your face, make sure to get off all the stress of today's workload! 

Step Three
Wet hands (or towel) and massage the product into your skin. 

Step Four
Rinse your face thoroughly and pat dry using an adorable towel with a bee on it.

Step Five
Pull out your Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Day Lotion with Clary Sage and prepare yourself a place to lay down as you massage this into your skin. The scent is heavenly and SO relaxing! 

Step Six
I finished off my hydration skin routine with Burt's Bees Replenishing Pomegranate lip balm. Made my lips feel so soft! 


Take yourself on a date to Target to pick up the new Burt's Bees Cleansing Oil product, and get it for 10% off until 8/15/2015! What's your favorite Burt's Bees product?

California Casual (Lulua + Nectar)

This is my second and more casual look featuring the Jolt drawstring pants, I've worn them almost too much since getting them in the mail a couple of weeks ago! Plus I HAD to get this tee from Anthropologie sale section because it said "California" on it, need I say more?

These Nectar sunglasses make my life so much sweeter! See what I did there ;) They are the perfect addition to any summer look and will even transition me into early sunny fall! 

These wooden tassel bracelets are a new addition from Lulua Jewelry. I found Lulua's account on Instagram and instantly fell in love with her delicate and vibrant pieces! Lulua is based in California, and is inspired by her beachy surroundings. A girl after my own heart ;) I'm currently giving away a wooden Lulua tassel bracelet on my Instagram, hop to it and enter! 

Speaking of California, we'll be heading down there for a week break in between BYU's summer term and fall semester. It'll be our last hurrah of the summer and I think we'll be going out in style :) I'm already itching for fall to make an appearance, especially after all of those Nordstrom sale purchases. Boots! Jackets! Sweaters! I went a tad overboard, but I'll be looking way fab for those cooler temps. Can't wait for a change in wardrobe but also some pumpkin patch time :)

Neutral Game Strong

I have become such a huge fan of neutrals, because I can wear olive/white/black/leopard print with everything! I'm drawn towards good quality pieces in neutral colors because I know I can wear them over and over. I'm loving this faux wrap blouse from Ravati because it's comfy but also makes me feel classy and dressed up. 

The creator behind Ravati has been in the retail business for 10+ years and a manager for 7 years, so she really knows her stuff! Kyla makes a point to stock her online boutique with classy pieces at an affordable cost. She knows that it only takes a few well-thought details on a blouse to make your day :) My other favorite Ravati pieces are this blue snakeskin bucket bag, dark wash skinny crop jeans, and these neutral color block wedges!

To wrap it up, I'll just say that these pants are AMAZING AND YOU NEED THEM. They are so comfortable and still look pulled together, so I'll definitely be picking up the black pair soon. I love them so much that I'm going to post another look with them this week, a more casual day-to-day styling of these pants. And for the $38 price tag at Nordstrom? Not too shabby ;) Hope you all have a happy Monday!
