Weekly Wears: Posies and Poppies

With the heat of the summer, my favorite beauty trick lately has been bright lipstick.  I mean, you sweat off the rest, but the lipstick can still make you look (and feel) put together.  I like it.

I haven't really been into the milkmaid braids on myself, though I do love them on other people.  I decided to try them today for a change, and I actually liked them!  I stuck some colorful flowers in the braids and felt like a million (sweaty) bucks.  ;)  Seriously though, having my hair off my neck was wonderful.  This will be one of my go-to hairstyles for a while.

What are some of your favorite beauty tricks when it comes to high temperatures?  I'd love to hear them!  xoxo Katie
