Another Day at the Farm: Texas Chic

Who says you can’t be stylish on the farm? Not me!! I felt comfortable and Texas Chic in my  James Perse Casual Tank in Breeze, Pilcro Bubblegum Shorts from Anthropologie and Old Gringo Boots! I absolutely LOVE my Pilcro Shorts- the denim is perfectly stretchy! I love mixing the grey and pink too- it was a fun alternative to my natural attraction to a Perfect White Tee! Not only did I relax and read, but I was trimming trees in my outfit today- it is that versatile!!

Loving Life!

Emily Arnim

PS. I also rocked my GaugeNYC Initial Pendant today from Neiman Marcus – LOVING it for just $75

Burberry Brit: Can Perfume Change Your Mood?

The other day I was not having the best day. I made a run into Sephora to pickup some essentials. Next thing you know I am gravitated towards the perfume section… I decided that I needed a scent fiercer than my favorite Jo Malone Floral to give me a boost of fierceness that day… And just like that Burberry Brit did the trick- I was Back!! Love Love the scent of Burberry Brit!

My Fave… Jo Malone English Pear and Freesia

Moral of the story. Have a scent that makes you feel strong and confident! Having a trying day? Go to Sephora and find the boost you need!! No need to go from counter to counter… Read the labels (spice, floral, fresh, etc) at Sephora and sample as many as you need to find your perfect scent!

Be Fierce, Be Fresh, Be Sexy, Be Soft! What do you need to Be Today?

Best Wishes!

Five Beautiful Lessons I Learned in Anguilla

20111211-201729.jpg

Sunset at Viceroy Anguilla

Today my husband and I are leaving a vacation at the Viceroy Anguilla that has been nothing short of spectacular. I am sad to leave this magical place, but as I do I will take with me these little beautiful lessons of vacation life…

#1 The sound of the ocean and crickets are the best lullaby.

#2 My vacation is more about sleeping than staying up late.

#3 Not too many things are prettier than a full moon on the ocean.

#4 Rain showers are God’s way of giving us a break from the sun.

#5 I make my schedule around enjoying every sunset.

I Love My… Clarisonic Brush

I love my Clarisonic Skincare Cleansing System… I only use it a few times a week (due to a recent recommendation), instead of every day! I’ve had mine for a while, recently picked it back up and I can totally tell the difference! I love the Clarisonic and recommend putting it on your wish list. I know the price is steep for some of you, but this is your face we are talking about… No reversing damage here!! The sonic pulses from the brush clear your pores of built-up toxins, makeup, and bacteria that cannot be removed with our own circular cleansing pattern. This is a deep cleansing we all need to give our skin that natural glow and rid the residue!

From Nordstrom- Clarisonic…. ”Developed by the lead inventor of Sonicare®, CLARISONIC® uses patented sonic technology to gently yet deeply cleanse pores of environmental toxins, makeup and bacteria—without abrasion or harsh chemicals. Unlike superficial cleansing, CLARISONIC® removes greater than six times more makeup and actually increases product absorption—making skin more receptive to skincare ingredients (up to 61% in a recent clinical study). Skin is demonstrably hydrated, more even-textured and suffused with a beautiful glow.”

Get Glowing!!

Truly Yours, Emily - The Suburban Diary
