Ideal Spring Sneakers: Keds + Kate Spade

If you follow me on instagram you probably know that I am a super fan of the classic Keds. In fact, they are a staple in my comfy weekend wardrobe. Specially the red and white ones - I make them match any outfit I choose to wear. (Seriously!)

Remember my previous Keds + Kate Spade blog post? Well, today I bring you my favorites from this season's collaboration where they use trends like leather, neon, mesh, cork and floral fabrics.

Cork + Lemon + Mesh + Leather

My favorite? The last style in metallic leather because it adds a subtle touch of elegance with it's shiny, metallic color. What's your favorite? I'd love to know how you feel about KEDS. Share your thoughts in the comments below. 

Cheers! Cristalia

The Bar Cart

Vamp up your entertainment corner with these beautiful metallic bar carts. Starting with a super affordable +Target item followed by three more pricey choices. These are beautifully accessorized with the traditional ice bucket, cork screw and cocktail shaker.  

 1 $130 :: 2 $399 :: 3 $498 :: 4 $799

 Do you have a bar cart at home? Which is your favorite from the metallic picks above? 

Cheers! Cristalia

Beauty Products I Use & Love: Foundation

I am one of those girls that stays true to her every day beauty products. If I believe it works, I would buy it, use it until it's gone and buy it again and again.

This has been the case with my everyday foundation. I've used Loreal's True Match super-blendable makeup in N4 for many years. It's been my go to foundation ever since I remember buying foundation.

A few weeks ago I decided to find a new higher end brand (to change it up a bit) and stopped by +Sephora. I ended up buying the +Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Even Finish Foundation in Warm Natural and absolutely love that it makes my skin look super soft and even.

One pump of this product is supposed to be enough for one application but I find that 2 pumps gives me better coverage. With a few layers of this product on my face, my skin looks very soft and natural.

Needless to say, I still loove my True Match foundation and will continue to have both products in my beauty bag. Saving the more expensive one for special occassions. ;)

Do you use any of these foundations? I would love to know what you use so, share your favorite foundation in the comments.

Love & cheers! Cristalia

Awesome Find: Dartstrip to display art!

Whenever I come across an awesome product, article, video, etc. I usually share it on my personal FB page but I've realized that I should be sharing them here, in the blog, because this is where I am able to reach YOU!...and the rest of this amazing community.

Today's feature is Dartstrip, a snappable steel strip that is 8 ft in length and 1 inch wide. It comes with a removable adhesive for you to place on any wall. It is bundled with powerful magnets for hanging art, photos & more.

But it's not as simple as it sounds. When I said powerful, I meant POWERFUL because each tiny magnet can hold up to 10 sheets of letter sized copy paper. Ummm-hum!




You can probably find many uses for the Dartstrip but I am ordering my own to hang this beautiful 2014 PaperFashion calendar which I've been wondering how to display at home, in my work area.

So what do you think? Are you curious to try Dartstrip?
