It’s been a longggg time since I’ve done a favorite post so I’d decided to share my August favorites today. I included my favorite things I’ve purchased recently that I would 100% buy again. In today’s post, I’ll be sharing my favorite fashion pieces, beauty products, and accessories. I hope you enjoy!

Fashion

Everlane Straight Leg Crop

I know I wrote about the Everlane straight leg crop ($72) in my summer fashion essentials post, but I am truly obsessed with them! I love the high waisted fit of these pants because it makes my legs look longer (I’m only 5’4″). The fabric of these pants is flexible to accommodate large meals. The best things about white pants is that they literally match with everything. I will definitely be buying these pants in other colors because they are just so comfortable (probably black for fall).

Beauty

Urban Decay Naked Ultraviolet Palette

Ever since I bought this Urban Decay ultraviolet palette ($49) I’ve been using it several times a week! I had been craving a purple eyeshadow palette forever so when I saw this launch from Urban Decay, I knew it needed to be mine!

I love that the palette has a great shade range so I can wear it for everyday looks as well as more dressed up smokey looks. I’ve using this palette with the new Morphe 2 jelly eye shimmers as well as the Stila liquid glitter eyeshadows. I’m happy to report the palette plays well with other pigments! This might be my favorite Naked palette ever. Here’s my in depth review of the ultraviolet palette.

Krave Beauty Kale-lalu-yAHA

Krave beauty is an affordable k-beauty brand with a lot of hype on tiktok. I saw lots of people posting about the Krave Beauty matcha cleanser, but when I went to purchase the product, this was literally the only one that wasn’t sold out! Ever since I started using the Kale-lalu-yAHA chemical exfoliator ($25), I have seen a significant improvement in my acne and acne scars.

I’ve tried lots of high end exfoliators that didn’t do sh*t for my skin. I’m so grateful I gave this $25 exfoliator a shot because my skin looks better than it has in years! It is so gentle for my dry skin, yet effective on tough acne (even the mask-ne I get from wearing a mask at work). I will be doing a full review on this product soon, but I wanted to try it long term before reviewing to see how much it can fade my scars over time. 

Accessories

Dagne Dover Arlo Tech Bag

I had my eye on this Dagne Dover tech bag since they released this fun set of summer colors months ago. This coral color finally went on sale for $25 (off of $45) and I knew it was ready to commit! This tech bag has a space for my laptop charger, iPhone charger, and airpods (which I don’t have, but there’s a slot for them lol). 

This bag makes it so easy to keep my chargers organized and available to find at all times! It’s so perfect for college students or literally anyone that works on a computer lol. There is also a larger version of this tech bag that can fit a hard drive as well. They have lots of cute colors and I will definitely be purchasing from Dagne again!

Barrettes 

I got these barrettes on sale for $5 dollars at Ulta for the whole pack! Barrettes are still really trendy and fun! I can’t be bothered to do my hair (especially this year) so I really like that these clips make my hair look more put together. I’m not a huge animal print person, but I love the leopard print barrette. I think it will be so cute when I style it in the fall with a monochromatic black outfit. Do you see the vision?! Barrettes are one of those things that it doesn’t matter where you buy them or how expensive they are. They’re just cute and easy! Here’s a similar pack.

I hope you enjoyed this August favorites post! Let me know if you enjoy favorites posts in the comments. I’d love to know what your fashion, beauty, and accessory favorites are.
