Summer Days in a Red Polka Dot Dress

Fashion•Outfits

Hello friends! Happy July, happy summer! I hope life has been going well for you. The red-fire heat of summer is here to stay, and I’m embracing it with some red of my own. Over the 4th of July, I was lucky enough to spend time with some of my dearest friends from high school in Independence, Iowa. Independence is near my hometown of Cedar Falls, so I was also able to spend a wonderful day with my family (even though I was also working remotely that day). While I worked, my mom and husband went to Goodwill. There’s...

Fashion•Outfits

Since it finally feels like (and looks like spring) – Minnesota is in for plenty of rainy days ahead. I have owned a few pairs of rain boots over the years, but have never owned a pair of rain booties. When I spotted these  Jeffry Campbell rain booties (for only $55!), I knew I had to have them. They look chic and sophisticated, and go with literally everything. If it wasn’t for dancing in the rain over the weekend, I bet you wouldn’t even know these were rain boots!

  • #ad Sharing a new blog on how to get this twisted braid, beachy wave hairstyle! Thanks to @natureboxbeauty, I know my hair will be frizz-free all summer long using their 100% Cold Pressed Macadamia Oil Shampoo & Conditioner. What’s cold pressing exactly? 🤔 Cold pressing oils is the process of using extra pressure without excessive heat to extract the natural oils from fruits and nuts without chemicals or hot processing. Nature Box™ has a variety of shampoo and conditioner sets that include cold pressed oil from coconuts, avocados, apricots, almonds, and macadamia nuts. The set I got is exclusive to @cvspharmacy! You can get the full hair tutorial on Rachel’s Lookbook at www.rachelslookbook.com! The link is also in my profile! #ShopNatureBox #beauty #hairstyles #linkinprofile #summerhair
