As many may know about me Spring is my favorite time in Fashion! It's a mix between winter and fall which are my second favorite fashion seasons! :) as I read Vogue cover to cover every month I snap away at my favorite ads or editorials in each issue!

I like to use the Clarisonic brush w a scrub to exfoliate my
