3 Colorful Eyeshadow Palettes That Will Break You Out of Your Neutral Rut

Go through my eyeshadows at home and you'll be met with an abundance of browns, taupes and creams, but if you're seeking anything more exciting than navy or gold, you'll have difficulty finding any. Sorry. Neutral shadows are my fave because they're just so darn practical. I can use them for daytime or nighttime looks, and they go with EVERYTHING.
Because I love them so much, I'm pretty limited in the colorful eye-makeup department, but I really want to change that this summer. If you're looking to break out of a neutral rut like me, here are three colorful palettes you could be dipping your brushes into.

For sugary-sweet looks: Too Faced Sugar Pop Eye Palette



The first thing that drew me to this palette was the really cute macaron print on the packaging, since the sugary treat is my favorite dessert on the planet. But as I got to swatching and blending, I realized the shadows were quite good as well.

Do you feel a stab of panic when you look up the weather forecast and see it’s 90 degrees and sunny? Have you been known to wear two pairs of stockings in July and lace-up boots to pool parties?

8 Sexy One Piece Swimsuits We Love

The one piece swimsuit doesn't get a lot of love when it comes to beachwear attire—coming in last to the bikini and monokini. We admit to overlooking the style. But, sexy updates, featuring mesh inserts, fashionable flounces, and creative cuts are making us give the one piece a second look. The important thing to keep in mind when revisiting these classic womens bathing suits is that it's not about covering up—that's what a cover up is for. It's about complementing you body and your style. You can only get so imaginative with a bikini before your run out of options, and monokinis can leave us with…unfortunate tan lines.
So copy these 8 sexy one piece swimsuits that will make you want to welcome the beachwear staple back into your closet.

8 Dresses to Wear to Any Wedding This Season

Wedding season is slowly creeping up on us, so it's time you start thinking about what you're going to wear to the one or three you'll be attending this summer.

If you think what you wear doesn't matter, guess again. There are more no-nos when it comes to what to wear to a wedding than there are passes, so it's important you put thought into your ensemble.

Everyone should know to never show up in white unless it's requested, or you're the bride. Another look that can be tricky is lace. Since many wedding dresses either feature lace, or are covered in it, it's safe to assume to stay away from the fabric altogether. Though the list of what shouldn't be worn goes on and on, the main reason many of us show up to a wedding inappropriately dressed is because we never dress for the theme, atmosphere or location.

If you're attending a black tie wedding, it's best to show up in either a gown, or a little black dress. If you're attending an outdoor wedding, something summery like floral or pastel would be more suitable than navy or black.

Be sure to read the invitation, or ask someone in the wedding party about the theme, so you won't show up wearing a gown to a casual close family and friends ceremony.

To help you figure out your look, we've compiled 8 dresses to wear to a summer wedding. Get your shine on with these dresses below.
