Hippie Approved

My brother's dermatologist recently told him to check out this all natural skincare line called W3LL PEOPLE.  As I did a little investigating, I was intrigued by the philosophy of this Austin-based company... " W3LL is driven to create a fresh, safe focus on skincare by providing products with proven, medical-grade nutrients that actually work, and don't increase the mounting toxic load each one of us faces every day."

He was kind enough to purchase a product for me so I could try this eco-conscious, organic line.  I have to say, I've been very impressed.  I've been using their Mineral Creme Foundation/Concealer and it's light, creamy and natural.  It gives just the right amount coverage and I love the idea that I'm not piling a bunch of chemicals on my face.  It does have a natural Aveda-esque scent which might bother some, but I like it.

If you're not in the Austin area, everything is available online.

Shoegasm

Some might say my obsession with shoes is out of hand (my husband).  But really, can a person have too many shoes??  I think not.

Working with a bunch of women who are equally as fashion obsessed can be dangerous.  It's like we feed off each others' need for our next fashion fix.  In this case, though, it produced quite a bargain! 

You may have seen these little gems in Lucky or InStyle.  I was completely unaware until my co-worker came walking in with them on.  Not only are they fab...nude, wedge, right on trend AND über comfortable but they are also a STEAL at $29.00! 

And you need look no further than your local Target (a.k.a. my second home).  Love.  Check out the designer collections like Alice + Olivia and Lela Rose at Payless for other budget friendly footwear.
