How is your day going so far? </i><i>A few weeks days ago, as I was getting ready for bed and finishing up my nightly beauty regimen, it suddenly dawned on me that I never did a post specifically dedicated to what it is that I do to take care of my skin. So, I decided to "come clean" and take this </i><i>opportunity to walk you through my daily skin-care routine. </i><i>Currently, I am using <b><a href="http://www.burtsbees.com/Nature%27s-Retoucher/brightening-landing,default,pg.html?cm_sp=HPA2-_-Brightening-_-060114" target="_blank">Burt's Bees Brightening</a></b> line of products. Now, I really like </i><i>Burt's Bees products in general ( Shea Butter Hand Repair Cream and Lip Shimmer in Watermelon are among my all-time favorites ) but the r</i><i>eason why I love this line is because it's made with natural ingredients, which is really important to me for </i><i>I believe that what you put on your body is just as important as what you put in it! Additionally, as I have previously mentioned I am not too keen on wearing foundation, so making sure that my skin looks even is really important. And Burt's Bees Brightening line helps to even out my skin tone and get rid of those pesky little dark spots on my nose and cheeks (evidence of my recurring sun-worshiping habits:)</i></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i><br /></i><i>So, without any further ado, here is my morning and evening skin care routine step-by-step.</i><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKDSBJ1zxYMwCS1acjtmVBRQCFFAh5dTG6q7Uyp8qOkAvb5rV_5cCqQWcxtl0NMUM2K7-HdZnbBN6i-9HiLOZuoHokAuck7nAt_4B5eTsuBOY-ArmtMx-6h62CJf9NG0yXqzBpRGYFWtA/s1600/vivaluxury_prod.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKDSBJ1zxYMwCS1acjtmVBRQCFFAh5dTG6q7Uyp8qOkAvb5rV_5cCqQWcxtl0NMUM2K7-HdZnbBN6i-9HiLOZuoHokAuck7nAt_4B5eTsuBOY-ArmtMx-6h62CJf9NG0yXqzBpRGYFWtA/s1600/vivaluxury_prod.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><a name="more"></a>STEP 1:<i> I begin by washing my face with Burt's Bees Brightening daily facial cleanser to remove make up and oil.

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! </span><span style="font-style: italic;">The one thing I have learned very quickly since moving to California is that no matter how warm it is during the day, once the sun goes down, the temperature almost certainly drops, so a jacket is a must. Normally, for casual looks I just throw on a leather jacket or a blazer, but dressier looks tend to be a bit more problematic. Though I like combining dressy pieces with leather jackets, sometimes I feel the impact of the piece gets lost covered up with something on top, which is perhaps why I am so obsessed with the set I'm wearing in today's post. </span><br /><a name="more"></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Of course these pieces could be worn separately, but I absolutely love the impact they create paired together, not to mention the jacket definitely kept me warm on a chilly Pasadena night! </span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfGtHJybiMR2xsiIOPd13rKBJU1ajU4ZrL64cB2swYPK7wspstZEPnqyQHaeqaVP3QoYq1CuGjAxPcVlt1ecpKnGJq3uS8d3o64uZtdkBv7PAEbu11t5M8MqdY5QAoaPRoIEmbG8B-Gu0/s1600/vivaluxury.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfGtHJybiMR2xsiIOPd13rKBJU1ajU4ZrL64cB2swYPK7wspstZEPnqyQHaeqaVP3QoYq1CuGjAxPcVlt1ecpKnGJq3uS8d3o64uZtdkBv7PAEbu11t5M8MqdY5QAoaPRoIEmbG8B-Gu0/s1600/vivaluxury.jpg" /></a></div><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span><i>Though I think the black, white and red print would look great with a variety of colors, today I wanted to make the gorgeous abstract print the focal point of the look.

THE ART OF ABSTRACT

Good morning, Everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! The one thing I have learned very quickly since moving to California is that...

MEET ME IN MALIBU

Don't really know what it is, but it's always been one of those places for us. We've been together for a little more than 8 years now, and for as long as I remember we've been coming to Malibu Pier. At this point it's like our little ritual, we get our tea and snacks at Malibu Country Mart and head down for a walk at the Pier, then we sit, drink our teas and just stare at the beautiful turquoise water... </span><br /><a name="more"></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOS7_h5f-F2oUbBkIwUHD8Q01JbAVMtDc0OWF6gcUhRkE_XIeHGvdRAh0llDEG_YntDJwzwcUte0L8DlN3Wd6wWy7wO6mnHUQhSUBFufwY7JRjIVG2NoW44nmCArBraX4HrHvCcID6Bjs/s1600/vivaluxury-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOS7_h5f-F2oUbBkIwUHD8Q01JbAVMtDc0OWF6gcUhRkE_XIeHGvdRAh0llDEG_YntDJwzwcUte0L8DlN3Wd6wWy7wO6mnHUQhSUBFufwY7JRjIVG2NoW44nmCArBraX4HrHvCcID6Bjs/s1600/vivaluxury-3.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">BTW, please forgive my crazy-looking hair! I didn't count on the wind being as strong as it was. Normally, it's a bit windy at the Pier, but yesterday, well, let's just say I ended up with a "slightly" altered hairstyle. Instead of the loose waves I had in the morning, my hair ended up looking like a cross between Medusa and a bird's nest:) Oh, well! At this point I have long abandoned all hope of controlling my super-fine hair... So, I am embracing the chaos and madness and crazy-looking hair:) </span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLrRlBrNOsFzervX2hCdhqZdp3diic6RrOsGm12CoTvDpGJGSBzBaCcsvsnUiSaldEs6VaddlfpxuZ4IQQyNQGLeEF3aGdBrGYBYRBKlGtAk4g4I7twjIvTDOs1XhePS0AN-1GTme_Tr0/s1600/vivaluxury-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left;

This particular pair is definitely my favorite at the moment! Funny thing, as much as I love boyfriend jeans finding a pair that fits right isn't necessarily easy for me. Most of the time when I try them on, they end up looking kinda odd, either way too loose or not nearly loose enough:) Basically nothing resembling the perfectly slouchy fit I have in mind, which is probably why when I find a pair that fits I have a hard time wearing anything else:)</i><br /><i><br /></i>  <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL58PfsyIS21auHBmCzB4_gvujuRpCRY-hKJIB-h9E1IWHOWQwaXS8S-AnOiCKKF4rhX-XLHD7MkfFmtvWY935NKR2rxGj6fTz9bTaA5XV2cUaeKWrun87SqhZesPjQj0n1mHtsWaoMic/s1600/vivaluxury-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL58PfsyIS21auHBmCzB4_gvujuRpCRY-hKJIB-h9E1IWHOWQwaXS8S-AnOiCKKF4rhX-XLHD7MkfFmtvWY935NKR2rxGj6fTz9bTaA5XV2cUaeKWrun87SqhZesPjQj0n1mHtsWaoMic/s1600/vivaluxury-3.jpg" /></a></div><i><br /></i><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><a name="more"></a><i>As far as styling is concerned, I think I prefer to pair slouchy jeans with something a bit more dressed up on top, like the sequin pullover I am wearing in today's post. I attempted to pair them with a casual tee a few times, but I just can't help but add a blazer or structured jacket on top. Oh, and I greatly admire people who can rock slouchy jeans and flats, but for me, a pair of pointy-toe heels is a way to go.

SUMMER SEQUINS

Good morning, Everyone! How is your week going so far? I am definitely having a boyfriend jeans kinda moment lately! Don't know what it...

A TOUCH OF TWEED

How was your weekend? Emil and I had another one of those super lazy weekends, which after a pretty exhausting week, was probably exactly what we needed. Funny, how our lazy weekends always begin the same way... On Friday, we make a ton of plans but come Saturday morning, we cozy up on the couch, have a super long breakfast, which slowly transitions into lunch and end up watching our favorite shows all day long. Well, after spending the entire Saturday at home, around 3pm on Sunday we figured we had to leave the house at some point. So, we headed to our favorite Sunday hang-out spot, i.e. Melrose Avenue. We fully intended to walk around and maybe do a little house shopping, but instead  checked out exactly 2 stores before settling in at a very cute cafe:) Productive? Probably not! But sometimes it feels so nice to take a break from running around and take a moment to enjoy the simple things ...</i><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSuLkngu9spFVPUbJCotvWxcH-JZRX86D3z1aYZTCyMhCnkcG2uWlpOJMDkh74qhxLFHLjZgu79luEksA9EwIgtBba2wKQlkmUTfp4z3vsZGc2lt6BhcWk3aRoU0mR7V8ub3zNFBw_vAw/s1600/vivaluxury-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left;
