Feeling Catty!

Feeling Catty! by jessicaroque featuring Kate Spade

Chic, bold, and yet with a touch of classy elegance. This look is perfect for Sunday brunch on the beach, or maybe an afternoon trip to the mall with lunch. the bold neutrals of black mixed with leopard, and the added chic of the glasses and bag makes the look to be overall perfect.

Top Fashion Pick of the Week: Madewell D'Orsay Flats by jessicaroque featuring Madewell

These have to be my go-to flats at the moment! Not only are they incredibly comfortable, look at how incredibly chic and stylish they are. The pointed toe flat is currently in, and it's too cute/classy not to love. And the bright cobalt blue color gives you that extra pop of color!

Top Beauty Pick of the Week: Neutrogena Body Oil

Top Beauty Pick of the Week: Neutrogena Body Oil by jessicaroque featuring a body moisturizer

Ever have someone compliment you on how soft you are? This has happened to me multiple times, and trust me -- it never gets old. You'd be surprised the simple joy you can feel just knowing your skin is soft enough to be a noticed on a regular basis. How did I achieve this? The Neutrogena Rainbath and Body Oil.

I simple scrub in the shower, and a quick oil down after drying -- and soon you'll be loving your incredibly soft skin too!

DIY: Grapefruit Sugar Scrub

During the summer months I always find it vital to rejuvenate and treat my skin with exfoliating scrubs. I found this recipe online and decided to give it a try. I like to scrub, wash, shave, then wash again to achieve optimal results on my legs.

Scrubbing once a day with the scrub and applying lotion or oil afterwards leaves the skin feeling silky smooth and wonderfully delicious!

The recipe and steps are as follows...

First, the grapefruits must be zested into a large bowl.

Then they must be juiced.

Add in the coconut oil and tea tree oil.

Finally, add the sugar and mix!

Scoop them into your favorite jar and serve with a spoon!

Ingredients

The juice and zest of two grapefruits

1/2 cup Coconut Oil

1 tsp. Tea Tree Oil

3 cups of Sugar (more or less depending on consistency)

You'll need

An electric mixer

A large bowl

Spot On

Wearing:

Happy Friday everyone!

I put this cute number together for a casual day at the office. Something simple, yet cute and chic. Love the mixing of bright emerald tones, and the cute polka pattern on the pants! Makes them way too cute to resist. Mixed in with easy cognac and gold tones, and voila! easy causal style, which is great for all day comfort.

On this particular day it was extremely HOT! But thankfully a lunch break out on the lake, is not too shabby. Added with the helpful benefit of great friends <3

Edgy Style

Edgy Style by jessicaroque featuring celine handbags

I think my current obsession is quickly becoming classy easy casual style. Looks which seem to be effortlessly thrown together, but seem to make a bold statement as to the style queen that you. Boyfriend jeans, sweater top, statement chain, and flats. Key items which seem essential to everyday dress, but when paired smartly, can offer much more than the casual style.

It can give you an edge you didn't know you possessed.

IT BAG

IT BAG by jessicaroque featuring personalized home decor

I've had this bag for a little more than a year now, and I must say -- I have never loved any purse, the way I do my carry-all tote by Michael Kors. The blue/navy colors is the perfect neutral giving my bag an versatile look time and time again. Plus, who wouldn't love the luxury of all that space?!
