Deadbeat Summer

Today was my last day of Fall semester and my summer has officially started! Words can't express how excited I am to soak up the warm Miami sun. Appropriately, here are some fun summer shots from Wildfox's Summer collection that consist of everything I want to do this vacation - play by the water, relax and tan :)

TREND: Bright Lips

A must-try trend for this spring and summer are bright lips! The brightly colored pouts were featured all over the catwalks of designers from the likes of Marni, Diane von Furstenberg and Fendi. The thought of a bold lip usually scares most women but all it takes is confidence. I'm a huge fan of lipstick, I think it adds to an outfit just like an accessory does. So far I've invested in two shades, a coral hue by Sephora and a deep pink by MAC. Here are some tips:

• The three trendiest hues for spring/summer are pink, coral and orange. You can then choose within that range which fits you best.
• Make sure you chose the right tone of color with help from a makeup expert or else it can go very wrong.
• Happy lipstick shopping :)
