1. Messy beehive (with all this teasing I’ll need a serious detangler haha)
2. Oversized curls (hot rollers are a must)
3. Pop of bright colors (I’m thinking mini clip-ins)
4. French braid to bun (first I have to learn how to french braid ha)

My Weekend…
Some favorite details:
- Snuggle time with the man
- New manicure with Essie’s French Affair…I have a feeling this color will consume most of my summer
- An amazing night with some OG friends–love you ladies and Happy Birthday Christina!
- Exploring Fort Hancock in NJ after a car meet–can be a little creepy haha
What about you loves? What was your favorite part of the weekend?

Your Perfect Scent
The lovely Stephanie from Women’s Health Magazine contacted me about featuring a small article they had about scents women tend to go for according to their age. I thought it was pretty interesting but I would love to know what you think? Do you fall into their age scent categories? I myself always thought I would eventually fall into a classic scent that would become my signature BUT I seem to be buying more and more perfumes as I get older. Maybe Women’s Health really has figured out some method to it. Below I’ve even recommended some scents according to their theory.
Your Perfect Scent
Your age is the most influential thing that shapes what scents you’re attracted to. Long gone are the days of a signature scent; some women change it up every few years, while others make a switch depending on their mood. Studies show that our sense of smell evolves over time, which affects our fragrance preferences. The editors of Women’s Health magazine help you find your perfect scent according to your age!
Late teens: Teens sport sweet scents to form their personal identity, define their territory and fit in socially. Try more grown-up sweet smells or, choose sophisticated sweet notes such as peach or grapefruit.
BtL Recommends: Burberry Brit Sheer
Twenties: The biggest reason twenty-something’s get their spray on is to feel more attractive to others. Experts say women in this age-group, who are typically taking home entry-level paychecks, are more drawn to luxury brands. Uplifting floral fragrances, such as jasmine, lily of the valley and magnolia top the list of favorites for women in this age bracket.
BtL Recommends: Marc Jacobs Lola Marc Jacobs
Thirties: At this age, a woman uses scents to feel sexy and secure—and if she’s coupled up, to tantalize her man. By the time a woman hits 30, she is more established in her career and relationship and is looking for a scent to reflect that. Look for a floral with a warm base note, such as musk, which will satisfy your need for a sexy scent.
BtL Recommends: Gucci Guilty
Forties+: In their forties and fifties, women choose fragrances that please themselves. The olfactory system weakens with age, making it harder to detect subtle smells. Women in their forties love and are more likely to wear strong grass or woody scents. Get your fix with a bold floral that contains crisp green notes, or go sultrier by opting for a woody base note like sandalwood.
BtL Recommends: Donna Karan Cashmere Mist
Your turn to dish–What’s scent are you rocking right now??
