No.7 Match Made Makeup

No.7 products
Drugstore makeup finds
As far as affordable makeup goes, No.7 is a great line to check out. The brand is established, and reasonably priced. They recently launched the Match Made app and product line, a group of products that are tailor-made for your skin tone and type.  Download the Match Made app online, and get started. Here's how it works:
  • Pick up the Match Made card at your local drug store (free)
  • Download the Match Made app (also free) 
  • Rinse your face of all makeup 
  • Hold the card up to the side of your face
  • Snap a photo
  • A few shots later, and your done!
  • You can also find a Walgreens store that matches you right inside the store. 
The app reveals the correct, color matched No.7 products for your skin tone, including foundation and lipstick.  I think this is a great idea because part of what makes shopping for drugstore makeup difficult is that you can't test it out. With the app, there's no more guess work. 

Edit for 2024: the brand has now updated this app with the Shadefinder page.

Yardbird Southern Table & Bar - Miami

Yardbird Southern Table and Bar, Miami
Yardbird Southern Table & Bar Fried Green Tomatoes BLT
If you've lived in, or visited Miami in the last five years, chances are that you've been to Yardbird Southern Table & Bar.  The southern-style restaurant was the first of it's kind to hit the city. It debuted among a ton of fried-chicken fanfare, and continues to be a place where people go for specialty cocktails and country style cooking.

Last month, in response to popular demand, Yardbird extended its hours and rolled out a $25 lunch menu.  Now, you can grab some breakfast as early as 8:30 AM on the weekends, or stop in for a late night snack, because they're open until midnight.  Also, happy hour has been extended from 4PM-7PM. (Yardbird has a beautiful bar area, with a full range of liquor).  If you're a bourbon fan, you'll want to sample their selection, which they infuse in-house with ingredients like bacon, and honey.

The new lunch menu is available Monday through Friday, from 11AM - 4PM.  For the lunch menu, you can choose between the Deviled Eggs or the Fried Green Tomatoes BLT as a starter. For the entree, you get the Lewellyn's 1/2 Fried Chicken. Dessert includes your choice of a Fried Oreo or Beignets.

Cute Baby Shower Outfit l Cute Work Outfit

A few weeks ago, we celebrated my friend's baby, Amelie. This is what I wore to her baby shower.
This high-waisted skirt, that flares, can be tough to style because you have to ensure you define your waist. The option of a cropped jacket, that falls just above the waist is the ideal option. The length of my jacket was a tad too long, but still helped pull the look together. 

The bold, floral print of the A-line definitely called for a solid pairing on top.  The black jacket is interesting because of the texture of the fabric, and the detailed sequined collar.
