Lavender Dress

Outfit post from a few weeks ago.

I have been really into clothes that are versatile and that you can just throw on and not have to worry about, another reason why I love wearing dresses so much. You don't have to think about what goes with this top or with this pair of pants, yadda, yadda,yadda, Its already an outfit! Ive noticed that Target has some great dresses and with me being in a pastel faze I picked this lavender one up for $18 USD. oh, and right now they have them on sale for $15USD. There are 12 colors to choose from,if your local target has all of them, if not all colors are online. 

This is a simple little dress that can be great over a bathing suit or you can dress it up and wear it out to dinner.

I wore mine out shopping with a friend that came to visit me from Ohio. I didn't wear anything special with it because I knew I would be taking it on and off while trying on clothes.



The silver bracelet in the top left part of the photo was a gift from my sister in law when I was in her wedding and the beaded bracelets I made with Swarovski Crystals. :) The shoes are pastel pink with butterflies in the middle. Ive had them forever and do not remember the price but know they are from Burlington Coat Factory.

close up of the butterfly on my shoe.

Beach photo from the condo. Was not a sunny day on the beach day, hence the reason for going shopping. :)

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

Stress- Fix

                                                                Stress-fix
Aveda has a new line of Ecocert certified organic stress relieving products made with organic French Lavender, lavandin and clary sage to help take your stress away. A tub of bath salts, oil concentrate, and a body lotion make up the new Stress-fix line. I don't usually do post like this but I was so excited when these products came to our salon! I love taking lavender baths after a stressful day at work. So I wanted to tell all of you about these wonderful products. I will say that they do smell like lavender. It is an overpowering scent in the bottles but when you use the products the smell isn't as potent.

$28 USD
Stress-fix body lotion- A great way to end your stress relieving bath is to apply this lotion all over your body. It is super moisturizing and not to heavy so you wont have to worry about lotion getting all over your sheets when you tuck yourself into bed. I use this lotion all the time.:)



And to take your special bath time one step farther Aveda has Limited Edition Earth Month Lavender candles
(Source)$12 USD
These candles are made with 100% natural soy wax and are infused with the lavender essential oils with added other plant and flower extracts. Whats cool about the glass container is that it is made from recycled wine bottles. (during the holidays aveda has another limited edition candle and last year that holder was made from recycled beer bottles)
Proceeds of candle purchase will go towards giving clean water to countries that do not have it.
