Latest Look: Curated Casual

In our latest look, Sydney wears: Zara trafaluc top, Asos joggers, Monki purse, and Asos sandals.

This ensemble proves that unlike what people normally think, being comfortable in what you wear does not have to mean wearing pajamas. With a cotton tee, loose bottoms and open shoes as worn above, you can still look on top of things but relaxed at the same time. That is also why I am currently loving joggers right now as they are a perfect example of this.

April Goals!

Even though the month has already started, I feel like I already need some extra boost and motivation to get me through it, and I'm sure many of you feel the same way too! Therefore, I compiled a list of goals to achieve everyday of this month:

1. Eat healthy. It may be hard to initiate this, but once you do, you will feel so much better about yourself and more confident. You don't have to go to one of those super healthy grocery stores, just cut down on the junk food on some days. Although intimidating, give it a try, and maybe you'll like it!

2. Give people compliments. Believe it or not, giving other people compliments will make you feel good as well.

3. Make some people laugh.

4. Explore your surroundings. Venture out into your neighborhood, discover new things and places around you. Spend a weekend out and take a bunch of pictures!

5. Write in a journal or diary. Even a one line entry per day is enough! This is a great way to reflect after a long day and will keep track of precious memories.

6. Reconnect with old friends.

7. Meet someone new. Say hi to people you aren't that close to, or get closer to present acquaintances.

8. Exercise. As tempting as watching your favorite Netflix show while munching on chips in front of your TV may be, get off that couch and maybe take a run in the morning or do some yoga. Exercising will refresh you from your exhausting day.

9. Spend time with family and friends.

10. Organize. I have a hard time with this myself, but a bit of spring cleaning will reorganize your priorities.

And there it is! Try to accomplish these goals everyday of April and more months to come and live the life you were meant to live!

Hello everyone! Today I made an effort to do my nails for the first time in a long while, and what better way to do so than getting inspired by some nails from the SS15 runways?

Why We Don't Wear Makeup Everyday (And Why You Shouldn't Either)

If you happen to know us personally, you may notice that my sister and I do not wear makeup on a daily basis. If we do, it is very minimal and mostly used when needed or as a little pick-me-up. Why do we do this when loads of other girls our age are just piling on the foundation? Here are a few reasons:

Korean Face Mask Review

Recently we received some Korean sheet face masks, which are famous for their immediate moisturizing and youth-giving properties. Being reviewed today are the Aloe and Tomato masks from Nature Republic and the Mugwort and Tea Tree masks from Etude House.
