Summer Wish-list | Samantha Jo xo

To make up for lost time, I've decided that for the next two weeks I would blog every day. Why two weeks? Well I'm currently visiting my parents in Florida, so I figured this is the perfect down time to really spend on my blog and myself in general.

As it is my first real official start of summer, I thought I would start my two weeks off with a summer wish list. This is just a compilation of all the things I essentially want (and need) just in time for these hot summer months ahead. So without further ado, my Summer Wish-list.

1. A new bathing suit

Particularly this one from PINK. I usually opt for all black, but this year I'm starting to branch out with colors, at least on my nails so why not spring for the orange and pink straps. Let's just hope the ta-tas fit.

2. Cover FX Custom Cover Drops

This may be my perfect makeup for the summer, but I don't know for sure until I try it. Apparently you just pop a few drops of this bad boy into your favorite moisturizer or face oil and this provides the perfect coverage to your face. Shout out to my girl Brittany for showing me this 'cause I'm dying to try it. This is great for the hot months when you don't want to wear heavy foundation, but you still need coverage. The Custom Cover Drops seem like a summer necessity to me. 

3. New Work Out Gear

Like all these goodies from Forever 21's activewear line. A good pair performance shorts, seamless leggings, and a seamless tank are great for summer morning runs or even just hitting the gym. Seamless work out gear is great in the summer only 'cause seams tend to rub and could particularly be uncomfortable with all that heat and sweat and stuff. Plus, when I have new work out clothes, I'm more inclined to go work out. Especially when they're cute.

4. Ombré

I've had it before and now that it is officially all out of my hair, I want it back. I suppose you always want what you don't have, amiright? I think it'd be a nice summer look.

5. Money.

So I can actually go out and get all this stuff this summer. Maybe that paid summer internship will help.

So yeah, that's pretty much all I want atm. I'm a minimalist during the summer as I normally wear A LOT less makeup and A LOT less clothes, but honestly who doesn't do that in summer. Anyways hope you enjoyed, oh and real quick HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO MY HOME GIRL MOMMY. She's the best.

What are ya'll wishing for this summer?

Fashion Week Faves | AW '15

Autumn / Winter '15 Fashion Weeks have finally come to a close and although I'm running a tad behind schedule, I had to comment on my fave celeb looks over the past couple weeks. Autumn and Winter hold my favorite months of the year so, I was so excited to see what was trending-- and yes those bell bottoms from last season are still on trend. Never the less, I noticed some pretty awesome patterns popping up all over the runway and the streets, but it was the celebs' interpretation of the looks that caught my eye the most. Let's have a look at some of my faves!

So, it has become apparent to me that the late 60's looks are in and I'm more than obsessed!! I've been filling my wardrobe with bell bottoms and wide legged pants, similar to those seen on our girl Chloe Moretz above and I'm digging it! This look by Louis Vuitton is the perfect fall outfit, whether it be for your latest internship or a day spent in the city. These printed pants are even great for the upcoming spring as they're light and airy plus the floral design adds a nice touch to the season.

Selena Gomez was also caught sporting the printed patterns trend along with a really sick leather coat. These prints are definitely inspired by the psychedelic era and when paired with the right accessories like the coat or black booties, a dress like Selena's can be rocked perfectly this fall. Again the print shown in the dress would even look great this spring, perhaps paired with your favorite wedges!

One things for sure is that I love me some CaKe. CaKe as in Cara Delevigne and Kendall Jenner. Smear a little Karl Lagerfeld in the middle and I have fallen in love with a photo. Chanel is my weakness and though I couldn't see myself wearing the looks seen above, I can definitely draw some inspiration from it and that would be the leather. TBH, it's Karl's look that I actually wouldn't even mind rocking myself-- tailored to me, of course.

Sticking with Miss Delevigne, I just have to say this one thing; I NEED THIS OUTFIT. Omg, I could never pull this look off at all, but I just need it. It would figure it's one of my faves as it's Burberry, which is one of my fave shows at Fashion Week. This look has got my colors (burgundy & teal), it's got the thigh highs, and of course a leather jacket. This is my all time favorite AWFW look. I just need it. 

I couldn't finish this post without touching on a very important part of Fashion Week. I really want to know how Kanye got through AWFW by wearing a hoodie and jeans. I'm sorry, I wear this look to the grocery store and get nasty looks from the 60 year old man down aisle 3, yet Kanye West gets away with this AT FASHION WEEK. Let it go, Sam. Let it go. He still looks cool though. Oh, and Kim's hair looks fierce as hell. That is all.

What I've Learned From AWFW '15

Leather Jackets with wool are in.

Bell bottoms are in.

Late 60's chic is in.

Kanye West in a sweatshirt at AWFW is socially acceptable.

Kim's blonde hair is in.

What are your favorite looks from Fashion Week?
