Now that it feels as if spring may actually appear, I thought it was about time that I share some select looks from AE and Aerie for summer 2019. If you’re thinking that early to mid -1990s fashion is making a comeback, you’re certainly correct; from retro graphics, prints, and colorways to “flood” hemlines, bucket hats, and scrunchies, it’s all appearing again now which may lead to quite a nostalgic summer in 2019 (at least as far as fashion and accessories go).
From aerie we are seeing tube tops and tank top cuts in swimwear, as well as a little less fabric on the derriere and higher thigh cut outs as far as swimwear bottoms are concerned. Biker shorts, gingham and a general joie de vivre take precedence in the designs this season, so matter if you are heading to a HIIT workout class or preparing to lounge in a cabana, all of your style bases are covered! See below for some of my favorites from the AE and aerie lookbooks.
P.s.- Have you heard of the AE Style Drop yet? Rent three items at a time with free shipping, exchange opportunities, and laundry for just $49.95 per month. For more details, see here.
Outside of saving a ton of money and not having to leave the comfort of my apartment, at-home hair coloring hasn’t exactly felt like I was giving myself a luxury treatment. Until now. My favorite line with which to color my hair, Clairol’s Natural Instincts, has been my go-to for years because of its ammonia-free nature and uses 80% naturally-derived ingredients, and now it has upgraded pretty much everything about it while still maintaining the extremely reasonable $7.99 (suggested) price point.
The new stuff includes:
the breakthrough allergy-gentle moleculeME+, created to reduce the risk of new color allergies without compromising on color
a new nondrip crème color application (which is opaque white so if you do spill and wipe it up quickly, no harm, no foul!)
plastic gloves are packaged individually (previously were attached to the instructions)
thorough instructions, diagrams, and pictures to make coloring your own hair foolproof
Until these new changes were implemented, I didn’t realize what I was missing from a demi-permanent at-home formula, mainly that it could be an easier, more enjoyable experience for me with a few small changes. I’m loving the new Natural Instincts, and I’m sure you will too!
And I haven’t had a chance to try it yet, but just in case it’s of interest: Clairol also launched a new at-home root touch up product, the Clairol’s new Root Touch Up Color Blending Gel, a semi-permanent root solution that blends in with your current color and starts to fade over the course of 10 days with no mixing required or residue left behind.
