As Football season comes around, the hunt for red and black begins. That may be an exaggeration because it is never hard to find red and black in Athens, every store from local boutiques to our sketchy mall features displays specifically tailored for the University of Georgia's football season.

In the past two weeks I have begun a new part of my fashionista journey - I have started working at Flirt, a local boutique and the only place in Athens that carries Free People ;) Within a week I already had many opportunities to learn so much and take part in the creative side of this business, including helping paint our game day windows.  The designs came from the mind of our wonderful creative director Jen Tello, and while they looked great on paper, they look amazing on the windows.

In Athens and the SEC in general, it is the norm to dress up for games, unlike many schools where people wear a T-shirt and shorts and call it a day. I would be lying if I didn't say I was jealous of how my best friend and her friends dress for Miami football games, it looks a lot more comfortable and practical than wearing a dress.

Jersey - Nike

Shorts - Free People

 For the UGA vs USC game I opted for "jersey chic," which is probably the most comfortable look you can get away with. It's definitely my favorite look for games in the beginning of the season, when the games take place in the Georgia heat and humidity. 

I am obsessed with my coworker's, Tori, dress. It is the best way to looked dressed up, but feel comfortable at the same time. Sadly, I have no idea where she got it. 

Lips - Nars, Cruella

Choker - Asos

Earrings - Dogeared

It wouldn't be game day without donning some red lips.

As the season continues, I will post more game day outfits, until then, Go Dawgs!

There's nothing worse than looking really cute and only getting one picture to prove it, especially if they are only subpar phone quality. Therefore I'm going to start the Only on Insta post, where I post multiple mediocre photos of a few looks I wore, but didn't get to properly photograph.

First up, we have the best Ebay purchase I have made in a long time - a vintage Mickey hockey jersey. I saw one of the Beckerman sisters wearing it and immediately began searching for my own, within 10 minutes the jersey was acquired.

Next, we have a Free People dress that I purchased eons ago. I had never worn it, but recently decided to wear it to my sorority's My Tie date night. One Bridesmaids' inspired pose later, and it seems like it was fate that I wore the dress that night. I still cannot get over how great this picture turned out.

The best feeling ever is when you decide to give something a try, and it totally pays off. This is the feeling I got after purchasing NUDESTIX's Magnetic Eye Color pencils. The faces of Nudestix are two sisters, Taylor and Ally Frankel, and they alone are the reason you should love this company. These girls promote positive self image - They want you to enhance your natural beauty with their products, which are created to highlight your features so you can #gonudebutbetter

Fortunately the product is just as great as the mission. I came across Nudestix in a Refinery29 article and knew that I had to try it. I finally had the opportunity to peruse their products at the Sephora in Lenox. After much deliberation I purchased their limited edition magnetic eye color package, which included the colors Gilt, Night, and Twilight, and I also purchased the pencil in Angel.

 It was love at first swipe! When I tested the pencil on my hand it was smooth and creamy, but it was there to stay and did not budge. Not budging is crucial when you are in the humid Georgia heat, therefore, this attribute made these become my summer staple.

Not only do they stay on all day, they are so easy to use. My favorite look is when I apply Angel all over my lid and then add Twilight to my crease and outer lid - I just smudge and viola, I have a great understated, natural, smokey look. For an edgier look I like to use Night as my liner and smudge it out.

Nudestix has a great resource of videos and tips for using their products, you can find these on youtube, instagram, facbeook, etc. These girls are so cute and very interactive with their followers on social media, which I love! So get yourself some Nudestix and #gonudebutbetter
