Summer List Guest Post by Everything According to Erin

This post was sadly neglected when Blogger was having some malfunctions last week so I wanted to re-post, because Erin freaking rocks and it's a fab fab post!


Hello lovelies!! I'm off until I return from my honeymoon. Please enjoy this post from  Erin from Everything According to Erin. She is one of my internet bffs AND we made it official on Facebook. LOL. She has great reviews, and I buy nearly every beauty product she does. We're a match made in heaven.

 

Hello Love, Lipstick and Pearls fans! This is Erin from Everything According to Erin. I am super honored to be guest blogging for Miss K while she is busy celebrating her marriage with all of her family and friends. First off I just want to say congrats! I am so happy for you and I wish you many years of love and happiness in your marriage. I'm glad to call you one of my bestie bloggie friends and it's been great getting to know you.

Ok, down to business folks. I've got some good stuff to share with you guys. If any of you read my blog, you know that I have pretty much the same interests as K: beauty products, clothes, fashion and of course hot men! So I'd like to share with you some of my favorites for this upcoming spring/summer season. I hope you enjoy!

- Your must have beauty item: One of my favorite beauty products hands down has to be Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin. I recently bought this item with a lot of influence from a couple of girlfriends and other bloggers. I fell in love with Sin, but they also have two other colors: Eden and Original. Sin has a natural shimmer to it that I can use as a primer, but it also has enought color to be used by itself which why this one is my favorite. The best part about this product is that my eyeshadow not only stays put for hours, but it also makes the colors just look better. I mean I can sleep in my makeup and wake up the next morning looking like I just put it on. Now that I recommend you do that, but sometimes things happen!
- An item you're lusting over this season: The item I am lusting over this season is a properly fitting Fedora hat. I must have tried on 30 of these hats last year and could never find one that looked exactly how I wanted it. I want a straw color with a black stripe. When I would try them on, they'd be too wide or I'd like them but they'd be a different color that I wasn't sold on. I've even found a couple that I was ready to buy only to find out they were over $50, which is just not reasonable to me. Now you can find these everywhere: Old Navy, Nordstroms, GAP, Target, etc. I think they are a cute accessory this summer with a simple white tank and jeans or with shorts and a blazer. So if any of you ladies know of another good place to check please send me a message over at my blog.

- Your favorite trend for spring/summer: My favorite trend this summer is maxi dresses. You can't have too many of them. They are perfect for summer whether you're at the beach, a picnic or a nice dinner out. I currently have 5 of these dresses and keep collecting them. If you haven't checked out Old Navy yet, I suggest you do. They have a HUGE selection right now and are so reasonably priced, you just can't go wrong with any of them. I recently bought 2 from there. The one I'm wearing in the picture is my favorite. I saw it in the commercial and just had to have it. I had to go to 3 different stores to find it and have gotten nothing but compliments on it every time I wear it. What do you guys think? A maxi dress and a fedora hat is this seasons cutest outfit in my opinion.

- What you're looking forward to this summer: Besides cute outfits and dusting off my flip flops, I am looking forward to 2 things this summer. One: is spending any time I can at the beach. We don't have anything planned as of yet for the summer, but we always take a few day trips when we can. This is going to sound really silly, but I can't wait to start cooking my summer recipes. I have become quite the chef since my bf and I moved in together and I love trying new things. I find that there are so many more fun recipes to try in the summer. Plus there's always more picnics, cookouts and parties when it's warm. I feel like I make something new every weekend. I can't wait to make things like Jell-O Tiramisu Bowl. You can find the recipe here.

Finally, I am so excited to see the Hangover II this summer. Bradley Cooper is one of my favorite leading men for many reasons. Not only is he easy on the eyes, but he is a Philly guy. I gotta show some love to a local boy. If any of you have seen him in A-team, he is constantly wearing Phillies shirts and to me he's hotter in that than any Armani suit-but that's just me ladies.

- Your favorite Hollywood Hot Man: Well a picture of Bradley Cooper is definitely a great way to end a post. I hope everyone enjoyed my guest post today, I know I enjoyed writing it! Take care guys and congrats to K!

 

Looks like Bradley Cooper is everyone's Hot Man! Finding a fedora is definitely difficult, IDK why they make them so large- I have that problem too.
Thank you so much Erin!

PS That maxi dress was everywhere on my honeymoon, all the lovely ladies had it at our resort!
