Hey guys!

So I've been on kind of a health kick lately and I wanted to share something with you guys! Recently I've discovered Naturebox which is a website that sends you yummy snacks each month, and the best part is that you can try a free sample with their trial box!
I got my trial box a few days ago and I wanted to share what was in it! Before they send you your box, there is a taste quiz that you take so they can get a feeling of what snacks to send you. Here's what I got in my box!






In the trial box, they send you one regular sized snack and four trial size snacks. My regular sized snack was cookie-coated cashews. At first I was a little skeptical about this because I don't really like cashews, but theses are SO GOOD! I was really surprised at how much I liked them! Now for the trial sized snacks from top to bottom are: sea salt sun crunch, garden tomato crunchies, cinnamon swirl kettle kernels, and coconut cashews. As of right now I've only tried two of the trial size snacks. I've tried the sea salt sun crunch and they were really good too! They kind of looked like little circular hash browns, I definitely want more of those! I've also tried the cinnamon swirl kettle kernels and they were not a favorite of mine! I ate a few of them and just did not like them! But I'm excited to try the rest of them!

I really like the idea of having healthy snack delivered to my door every month and I can't wait to see what comes next month! You guys should definitely check out their website!

Ootd - What to Wear to an Interview!

OOTD - What to wear on Interview Day!

Hey guys!
I've been going on tons of interviews lately and I wanted to share with you two outfits that I wore to some of my interviews!




The first outfit is a dress from Forever 21 along with the a silver watch also from Forever 21, and black high heels. I love this dress and I think it looks very professional for an interview. If you wanted to, you could also add a nice statement necklace or blazer.

This second outfit is probably my favorite! I am wearing a white floral tank top that I wore in a previous ootd, a grey pin skirt, a skinny black belt, black high heels, and a silver watch!
I absolutely love this outfit and I think its super cute!

One thing you want to keep in my when going into interview is to, keep your outfit professional. I of course want to do something in fashion so I have to make sure to dress for success. So here are some tips to make sure you are looking professional and top notch for your interview!

1.       Make sure if you wear heels, they are not too high. If your heels are too high, it gives off the illusion of seduction.
2.       If you are wearing a skirt or a dress, make sure it is not too short! You don’t want to give off the wrong impression of yourself, first impressions are important! For many of the employers, this is the first time they will see and really take notice of you, so you want to make sure you don’t give a bad notion about you. About knees length is usually the safety zone for dresses and skirts. You may be able to get away with an inch or two higher above the knee, but anything higher is a big NO!
3.       Another tip is to dress conservatively, meaning you don’t want to show too much, as in cleavage or leg. Once again, you don’t want to give the wrong impression of yourself.

These next two tips don’t really have anything to do with clothes, but definitely has something to do with your appearance.

4.       Don’t go to heavy on the make up! Remember you are interviewing for a job, not going out to the club. You want to have your makeup pretty minimal and natural looking. I wouldn't go for a very bold lip color or blush. But I would go for a natural foundation, a neutral eye shadow look, and just a bit of mascara and eye liner.
5.       My last tip is to lighten up on the perfume. One, tiny sprits is all you need! You don’t want to suffocate your future employer the first time you meet them, so you want go light on the perfume.

Hopefully you guys found these tips helpful and keep checking back for more fun things!
