Marika Magic Slimming Capri Leggings

Hello fashionistas!
I'm here with an exciting new product that I was recently sent by Marika to share with you all. 
The Marika Magic Slimming Capri Leggings are the ultimate pair of leggings. These leggings are the perfect capris to wear to the gym, run errands in, or to lounge around the house while looking cute. 


I have found that these basic black leggings can be paired with a plethora of items that most women already have in their wardrobes. A tee shirt or tank top is a great way to stay comfortable while wearing the pants, but a long tunic can easily dress the leggings up to be worn while going out about your day to day activities. These leggings are the perfect pair of workout pants because they stay up while you run due to their flat waistband. These pants make me feel very thin even on the days that I feel bloated because they are made out of premium blend of 89% Cotton, 11% Spandex, Power Mesh: 86% Nylon, 14% Spandex, Gusset Lining: 47% Coolmax Polyester, 47% Polyester, 6% Spandex. The best part about this blend of fabrics is that it can be tossed in the dryer on low and your pants will not shrink! 

These pants can be purchased on the Marika website by clicking here. If you purchase from Marika between now and August 31st Marika is giving a code to use that is good for 30% off of your entire purchase! Use the code MM30 for the discount!

I hope you guys try these leggings out and love them as much as I do. I have multiple pairs of them because I love to rotate them throughout the week. They are also available in different lengths, boot leg cuts, and a straight leg cut.

Loads of love!

Dorfman Pacific Cappelli Pack a Hat Review

Hello fashionistas!
I'm here today with a wonderful hat from Dorfman Pacific to share with you all!
 This item is called the Cappelli Pack a Hat.

The hat comes folded up in a cute, handy striped clutch. The clutch helps keep you from losing the hat and able to take the hat off and effortlessly put it in a safe spot for your next wear! Another great thing about the clutch is that it can double as a little bag to take with you for your phone, lipgloss, and money. Totally genius and adorable. 


I love the hat and the slightly floppy summertime style. It's perfect to add on to any summer ensemble or to wear when you're at the beach laying out in a bikini. Not only is the hat a great accessory,but it is helping keep your skin safe with a UPF 50+ rating. 




Here are the other color options! I adore the green and I think it would like great on anyone with dark hair. The retail price is $25, therefore making the Pack A Hat perfect for vacation and for everyday use whether it's for yourself or for a friend.



Romper: Kohl's Shoes: Payless Ring: Kate Spade Earrings: Original Piece Hat: Dorfman Pacific 

I paired my hat with this fun black and white romper. The hat provided a perfect amount of shade and added an air of mystery to my look. I complimented the black hat with a vibrant red lip.

If you would like to purchase one of these hats for yourself or for a friend you can check them out here! I highly suggest that you guys purchase one of these! Let me know if you all end up buying one! 

I hope you guys had a lovely weekend! 
Loads of love!

FRAAS Holiday Metallic Scarf Review

Hello fashionistas!
The wonderful FRAAS scarf company recently sent me a lovely metallic scarf for the fall. 


I absolutely love this scarf. I'm not normally a fan of zebra print, but the fabric and colors used heighten the pattern to be so much more than just a zebra print. The golds and bronzes are very rich and luxurious colors.  


This scarf is HUGE. Not only could it be used to keep your neck warm, but you could also wrap it around yourself for a shawl. This would be a cute shawl with a little black dress. 


360528 is the Metallic Zebra style. Its pretty use of metallic yarns (mixed with acrylic and viscose) combines with the always popular animal print, to create a 12x80 inch accessory that works beautifully as both a wrap and scarf.  Three color ways are featured including a black combo, as well as gold and silver.  Great for dress up, special occasions' or just for fun, it retails for $35.


Here are the other colors available. I highly suggest you pick one of these babies up! They are bound to get you endless questions on where you got that scarf. 
FRAAS products are sold worldwide via department and specialty stores as well as online retailers. They may also order from the company by calling 212-575-0191. Select styles are available on fraas.com and amazon.com

Hope you all are having a great week! I'm so glad Thanksgiving break starts tomorrow. I'm very ready for a break!

GE Reveal Lightbulb Makeover and Review



Hello fashionistas!

Today I have a wonderful product from GE to review for you all. They are the GE Reveal light bulbs! 

LED light bulb are part of the GE reveal® brand, engineered to have the same familiar size and shape of an incandescent bulb, but deliver a color-enhanced spectrum of light. By January 2014, standard incandescent light bulbs of 40 watts and above will no longer be sold in the United States due to their energy inefficiency and changing energy regulations. The new GE reveal® LED will be a great alternative to incandescent bulbs, in addition to various other energy-efficient light bulbs that GE already currently offers.





Each package comes with 4 lightbulbs. 





My old light bulbs were a bit yellow and dingy. It was difficult to apply any makeup in my bathroom because they lighting was so poor. Colors were not accurate and it was very hard to see what needed more blending or more product. 






Before picture of my bathroom. 



Ta-da! After picture with the new GE Reveal LED bulbs. Like other GE reveal® light bulbs, the new reveal® LED filters out dull yellow rays, enhancing the colors and patterns in your home that may normally go unnoticed under standard incandescent light. The light in my bathroom is now crisper and much brighter. Doing any last minute touch-ups before I walk out the door is now very easy to do because the light is super bright. 

By replacing your home’s existing lighting with GE reveal® bulbs, every room will have a more enhanced, vivid surrounding light. For example, with reveal®, the colors in your living room will appear brighter and pop. In your bathroom, colors will look less yellow. GE reveal® bulbs transform a room from ordinary to extraordinary.

GE reveal® bulbs are available at retailers such as Home Depot, Lowes, Target, and Walmart, among others. This Fall 2013, GE is collaborating with retailers to provide special discounts for customers to create their own quick and easy makeover by purchasing reveal® light bulbs. GE reveal® light bulbs come in various options including energy-efficient halogen and CFL (compact fluorescents) with the new LEDs available this September.
The new GE reveal® LED light bulbs are the best energy-efficient light bulbs, lasting more than a decade based on three hours of use each day. They will be offered in 40- and 60-watt replacements, as well as the popular BR-30 shape for recessed fixture down-lighting. 

If you buy now using the GE reveal® Coupon - you can enjoy $1 off any package of reveal® light bulbs. Good to print through December 31, 2013 with a 45 day expiration. 

Have you all made the switch to GE Reveal LED lightbulbs? Now that I have made the switch I will never ever go back!

New Scala Collezione Headwear Collection: Headband Review

Hello fashionistas!
I was recently sent a wool headband from the New Scala Collezione Headband collection and I wanted to review it. All opinions expressed are my own, I would never promote a product that I do not actually enjoy. 


Most people associate wool with itchy, scratchy material, but this headband is the exact opposite! The headband is soft because they boil the wool. The process is even good for the environment!
 "The eco-friendly process of altering the material eliminates the usage of harsh chemicals while effectively shrinking the wool. Subsequently, the heat traps air chambers, forming a natural barrier against hot and cold temperatures and wind. This technique matched with Dorfman Pacific’s keen eye for design and artistry creates the ultimate cold weather accessory. The felt like texture is softer, warmer and eliminates the itchy feeling associated with wool."

The delicate flowers on the headband adds a very feminine touch. I know that people who live in chilly climates would love this headband during the winter season. The wool is warm and will keep your forehead and ears nice and toasty! I picked out the charcoal shade because I knew that it would pair well with a plethora of outfits. I plan on wearing this running when the weather cools down. I abhor having cold ears when I run! 
The headband is offered in black, charcoal, chocolate, ivory, and wine. You can purchase these delightfully embellished headbands for a mere thirty dollars online at Hartford York.
I highly suggest purchasing one to keep your winter outfits warm and stylish. 

Hope you're having a great weekend! I'm off to catch a movie with some friends.

Fall FRAAS Scarf Review

Hello fashionistas!
I recently received a new scarf from the lovely people at FRAAS to review. I have been hoarding it away for the past couple of weeks because I wanted to wear it when it got a little cooler!




*I'm aware that I wore a very similar outfit two weeks ago! Jeans, cardigans, scarves, and flats are great fall outfits because they look like you put more effort in than you actually put in!

This style is 060607 is an ideal style to celebrate the new Fall season. It reverses so that two distinctive looks are possible and comes in four flattering shades, petrol, dark red, purple and black. It is a super-soft mix of viscose and acrylic and 14 x72 inches. It is priced at an affordable $40, it is an excellent style for gifting or self purchase.

Here are the other colors that the scarf comes in. 



My favorite thing about this scarf is that it has two patterns! We all know how much I love my polka dots and stripes. The versatility means that you can sneakily wear this scarf over and over! The rich autumnal red will work perfectly for this fall weather. I love the soft material that this scarf is made out of because it keeps me warm and toasty. These scarves would provide a lovely pop of color with a neutral jacket or coat for the upcoming colder winter weather. 

Hope you are a well after this long Monday. I'm off to go grab a bite to eat and do a bit of homework. 

Loads of love!

The Skin Regime Review and Giveaway!

Hello fashionistas!
I was contacted by the lovely Dana who happens to be the founder of The Skin Regime.
Dana asked me if I would be interested in reading her book and trying a peel to help begin the process of making my skin beautiful. I have never really struggled with acne, but I decided to try it out becuase you never know until you try.
I read her book which is aptly title The Skin Regime: Boot Camp for Beautiful Skin.
I realized how LITTLE I truly knew about the skin myths and common mistakes that many people make. Learning how to treat my skin and train my skin to be better really has made a difference in the overall appearance of my skin. I had never been exposed to any peels before and was a bit nervous about using one. Dana's book explains step by step the process of using the peel and made me feel comfortable about using one. I applied the peel and I had no issues with it. I woke up the next day to brighter skin than I had gone to bed with! 


I really think that you should read this book to find out how to properly treat you skin. Don't waste a ton of money on expensive products that are only a fraction of the key ingredients to make positive changes to your skin. Check out Dana's book for the truth behind skincare!

You can find out more about The Skin Regime by checking out their website by clicking here
You can follow The Skin Regime on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube.  

Dana is so kind that she is offering to giveaway a free book and peel to one of my readers. If you fill out the Rafflecopter below you will be eligible to enter!

Flour Sack Creations Mineral Blush in Rose Review

Hello my fashionistas!
I have not whipped out a beauty post in eons and I feel that it is definitely time to do a beauty review post. I recently picked up this blush at our local farmers market.

The brand is called Flour Sack Creations and they make a wide variety of bath products (soaps, lotions, fragrances, etc) and mineral makeup. I decided to buy this beautiful blush in the shade Rose because it reminded me of Nars' Orgasm blush and was less than a third of the price! At only $10 it was such a bargain because it has so much product that I don't think I will ever be able to use it all. 



The top swatch is the blush unblended and the lower swatch is the blush blended. I'm very very very impressed with the quality and longevity of the blush. I put this on this morning, went out to breakfast, had my nails done, went to the gym and it was still there! I was surprised that it was still on my face after my sweat fest at the gym! 

If you want to purchase any of the Flour Sack Creations you can visit their website by clicking here


Have you guys tried any great local makeup brands lately? 
I'm heading out of town for today and part of tomorrow to see family and a concert. I'll do a post with my vacation photos sometime next week! If you want constant updates of my life feel free to follow me on Twitter

Emjoi Micro-Pedi Device and Attachments Review!

Hello fashionistas! 
I'm really excited to review the Emjoi Micro-Pedi device and attachments for you all! 
When I was initially offered to try this product to review I was skeptical of how "life changing" it really would be. I have always suffered from nasty callouses and overbearing cuticles, but this product truly has helped my feet look beaaaautiful



Living in good old Florida means that sandal ''season' is 9-10 months out of the year. I've tried other products to tame the toes and feet (pedi-egg, graters, pumice stones, etc.), but nothing has been as effortlessly easy as the Emjoi Micro-Pedi device. This also came with smaller attachments that could remove any callouses between your toes. This product is one of the most user friendly products I have ever tried. All you have to do is pop in two double A batteries and flip the switch on. I was filled with a little trepidation about putting this on my feet because I am very ticklish, but this did not tickle my feet at all. I felt like a light foot fairy was removing the nastiness on my feet.  Or a really great device- same thing, right? Make sure to use this device with your foot over a trashcan or your tub to avoid any mess. 

Just tackling those craaaazy cuticles! 

I tested out the manicure attachments on my little sister's hands. One thing you should note about my sister is that she is the antithesis of my girly girl personality; she does not like a bunch of makeup, fancy clothing, or treating herself to manicures. I sat her down and tried out the attachments on her very overgrown cuticles and polished her nails to a high shine with the buffer attachments. There is even an emery board attachment to help file your nails down. Her nails looked really good afterwards and just like she had gotten them professionally done! 

I believe that this product is going to save me a ton of money that I would normally spend at the salon getting my manicures and pedicures. For only $39.95 you can purchase the Emjoi Micro-Pedi device right here
The Emjoi Micro-Pedi Precision kit is $19.95 and can be found here. If you are looking to do your own fingernails then check out their Micro-Pedi Manicure Kit that also sells for only $19.95 and can be found here. Buying this device is a superb investment because you will be getting spa quality right at your own house! I've already told multiple friends and family members about this product. Have any of you tried Emjoi's products?

Stylish Hats from Dorfman Pacific for Sun Safety- Review!

Hello fashionistas!
I have a great Dorfman Pacific to review for you all!
Yes, I was sent this product to review, but that would never alter my opinion! 

Living in Florida requires a girl to protect herself from the intense heat and this fabulous floppy hat is the perfect accessory to save my skin. May is Melanoma awareness month and it is something that really should be brought to everyone's attention. 1 in 5 Americans will have some form of skin cancer in their lifetime. Sometimes SPF isn't enough, so protecting your skin with a wide brimmed hat is an easy way to stay safe and look fashionable at the same time. 





The LP 157 hat is available in natural with four different band options; you can either order the black, tea, turquoise, or fuschia. I have the fuschia hat because what girl doesn't love to don pink? I love the bow in the back, super cute! 

I will definitely be packing this hat to bring with me on my summer vacation to the Virgin Islands/St. John.
It is easy to fold and will bounce right back to its original shape.
This  hat also has a paper braid and comes in 4 color variations. It also carries the UPF sun protection factor of 50 plus! This hat retails for $25.


I hope you decide to wear the LP 157 because it will keep your skin safe while keeping you looking like a stylista.

Fraas Mystical Scarf Review and Outfit of the Day

Hello fashionistas!
Spring is here and with it comes warmer temps, lighter colors, and open toed shoes! 
I have a wonderful scarf from Fraas to share with you all. It is called the Mystical Water scarf.
Yes, I was sent this to consider for review, but that would never alter my opinion.

Excuse the fact that these pictures were taken in my pottery room. This is where we take pictures of our pieces. The white specks all over the background is clay dust, the usual. 


Shirt: Gap Blazer: Thrifted Pants: JCP Shoes: Kohl's Scarf: Fraas Bracelets: Gap and Forever 21

I wanted to show you guys how the scarf could make a simple tee shirt really pop and that you could pair it with a dressier blazer. This scarf is extremely versatile; I have about ten outfits that could be worn with it in mind! The colors are so beautiful and bright. I love the way the blues swirl together with the lavender. If blues and purples aren't your thing, the scarf comes in a coral shade. Also, this scarf is incredibly soft, I just want to snuggle with it.. Is that weird? When I wore this to school I received a ton of compliments. I would highly recommend this to anyone in the market for a spring scarf. 


I played with the cool shades in this scarf by pairing a blue toned pink lipstick with it, MAC Speed Dial. 

The Mystical Waters scarf is a beautiful, "over-sized printed scarf that measures 40x72 inches which means that it can be worn as a wrap or a scarf. It retails for $48 and is available in beautiful vibrant turquoise and coral."

https://mail-attachment.googleusercontent.com/attachment/u/0/?ui=2&ik=3f7e107381&view=att&th=13d59d87a0f9cd27&attid=0.1&disp=inline&safe=1&zw&saduie=AG9B_P-ohC9VOL2YCxR6YJyzz8VK&sadet=1365250814886&sads=U0BVv_SUYVlzXCeC81JQR3rj62Q&sadssc=1

Alright guys, I'm off to get ready to go to the gym.

Dorfman Pacific Fascinator Headband Review

Hello fashionistas!
Today I wanted to share a super chic hair accessory with you all.
They are from Dorfman Pacific and they are the cutest fascinator headbands ever.


The Scala Collezione Collection is one of Dorfman Pacific's most popular brands.  It features more than 50 formal looks retailing from  $30 up to about $150 for a very involved Sinamay style with a seven inch brim, netting and dyed to match feathers (and over $200 for a fascinator decorated with a butterfly motif and silk flowers in a 22 inch diameter!). Flowers, bows, ruffles and/or feathers adorn each style in stunning, eye catching intricate designs. All fascinators are individually boxed to protect the fine workmanship. Style LDF7 is a very popular style because it is flattering on all face shapes and has just the right detailing and trim for accessorizing most outfits. The headband is subtle but secures the fascinator so it stays in place through dancing, partying, cocktailing and the like

This headband is perfect to jazz up a simple little black dress for any party occasion. I love that it is such a statement piece. The feathers are a classic touch and the product is extremely well made. This headband gives a  classy, British-esque edge to any ensemble. If you want to bring out your inner Duchess then you should definitely procure one!

It comes in the three colors: black, white, and pebble. 

Also, don't worry about a damaged headband arriving at your door step; when they ship the headband out they package it very well which prevents any breaking. It is always great to have your orders arrive safe and sound! 



Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!

Kushyfoot Leopard Print Flats to Go and Slipper Socks Review

Hello fashionistas! Tonight I have some adorable Kushyfoot products to share with you all! 
I was recently sent these and have been wanting to review them for you all. All opinions are 100% my own. 

These are the Fall Leopard Print Flats to Go they are perfect to slip into after strutting around in killer high heels. The leopard is tres chic and very soft. The bottoms are comfortable to walk around in; they are not made of the strongest material, but they are sturdy enough to slip into for a few hours. I like that these add a nice pop of pattern to any outfit. It helps keep you looking fabulous even after you have to take off your original (painful!) shoes. 

3640A-2214cropped.jpg

 The Flats To Go come in sizes are 5/6, 7/8 and 9/10 with a suggested retail price of $9.99 per which. The ballet flats have been rescuing sore feet and acting as emergency footwear for a few years now. 


I am normally anti socks, but I actually really love these slipper socks. They are not too thick and they are very soft. I also like the no slip grip. The colors are good for any girly-girl. 
3626Lilac.jpg

For those times indoors where full-out slippers feel too much, but a bare foot feels just too naked, Kushyfoot Slipper Socks (3626 in black/lavender) are the ideal answer. In a cotton-rich cotton/polyester/pvc/spandex blend, Kushyfoot Slipper Socks have a cute bow and and a strap and anti-skid bottoms. At a suggested retail of $4.49, they are super-affordable for everything from spa vacations to college dorms. Slipper Socks fit like a sock and come in a single size that fits most.


Have you guys tried any of the Kushyfoot products? I highly recommend them! 

I'm off to go work on exam study guides (yes, exams start Tuesday.. joy)!

Dorfman Pacific Parisian Beret Review

Hello fashionistas!
I recently received a lovely Parisian Beret from the sweet people at Dorfman Pacific to review.  

Here's a little bit about the company and the product. 


Dorfman Pacific offers the most comprehensive collection of hat brands in the country. Their research and development and design departments are busy searching the world for the best trends and materials so that retailers have the best looks when they need them in a quality and price point that is the best and most fairly priced.


Always on trend, Dorfman Pacific’s DPC AUTHENTIC brand presents style 50 for the new season in 19 colors. It is 10 and ½ inches and made from soft wool. The one size fits all feature makes it the ideal self or gift purchase.  A beret can be worn both indoors and outdoors and makes for a great fashion item to accessorize your look.



Onto my review!
 I was worried that the wool would be scratchy, but I was pleasantly surprised because it is very soft. The one size fits all is perfect because you don't have to worry about it not fitting if you are purchasing for a friend. You can style it in a myriad of ways. It provides a European chicness to outfits. I also like that you can wear it to cover up a bad hair day, thus taking you from drab to fab! 
The color that my hat is in is Forest Green. I personally love this color because it adds a pop of color without being too in your face. I think it would pair lovely with a camel colored coat. 



If you want your own Dorfman Pacific Parisian Beret you can click here and choose from a variety of brilliant colors!

Evologie Stay Clear Skincare Line Review and Giveaway!

Hello fashionistas!
Today I have a skincare review about a line called Evologie to share with you all. 
I want to tell you all that I was provided this by Beauty Stat.com to review, but it does not affect my opinion at all. I typically do not suffer from acne, I normally have a few spots pop up about 1-2 weeks prior to my period. 

Anyways, I wanted to share a little bit about the company with you all.

Because we  know that flawed skin can seriously undermine your confidence and affect daily life, EVOLOGIE products are doctor developed and clinically proven by a team of experts committed to the belief that improving the health of your skin improves the quality of your life.

We incorporate medical research, scientific innovation, high levels of clinical testing and a compassionate understanding in our skincare products.

Witness fast improvement of your skin's clarity, hydration, tone, and texture. And with continued use, experience your clearest, smoothest, healthiest skin ever!

First of all, I absolutely love the packaging. The boxes have a clean styling to them with calming colors. 
I also love the product's design. I really like when products have pumps instead of having to squeeze the bottles, it makes them very user friendly. I also really enjoy the chic frosted bottles. 




Evologie Stay Clear Cleanser, Evologie Stay Clear Cream, and Evologie Intensive Blemish Serum. 

The first product I want to talk about is the Evologie Stay Clear Cleanser. 

EVOLOGIE Stay Clear Cleanser is an advanced, non-drying formulation containing natural cleansing agenst, antibacterials, and keratolytics to unclog pores, remove oil, bacteria, and debris while maintaining your skin's natural pH balance. Lycopene, a powerful antioxidant, neutralizes environmental free-radicals that damage skin. Chamomile and honey extracts will leave your skin feeling refreshed and moisturized. 

Benefits: 
Patent-pending YS3 Complex
Clinically Proven Results
Natural Ingredients
Ideal for Teens, Men, and Women
Good for All Skin Types
Rapidly Clears Pimples
Helps prevent breakouts
Helps correct hyperpigmentation
Hypoallergenic
Fragrance-free
Oil free
Alcohol free
Non-drying

I found that the cleanser left my skin feeling very clean and very refreshed. I felt like it really removed all the makeup and grime from my pores. I also quite enjoyed the chamomile and honey scent that the cleanser had, it smelled very calming. I did not feel like the cleanser stripped my face of it's natural oils at all. 

The next product I used was the Evologie Stay Clear Cream. 
Here's a bit about that product.

EVOLOGIE STAY CLEAR CREAM works by intensifying your skin's healing power. It's YS3 COMPLEX delivery system combines natural ingredients with an innovative trans-epidermal absorption enhancer to rapidly penetrate deep below the skin's surface to where it is needed most. Moisturizers, antioxidants and collagen boosters keep skin carefully protected and balanced.




I felt that the cream (which is a moisturizer) didn't really completely sink into my face. I liked it, but I did find myself using a few more pumps of this than I thought I would have to really feel hydrated. 
I did like the scent of this, which I think is really important when using a moisturizer because it will be staying on your face! 

The final product I used was the Evologie Intensive Blemish Serum.
Here's what the company says about the product.

INTENSIVE BLEMISH SERUM is a potent treatment that rapidly resolves blemishes and pimples. STAY CLEAR CREAM keeps skin clear, moisturized, and helps reduce breakouts, post-blemish scarring, and skin discoloration. Together, the SERUM and CREAM will make your skin visibly clearer, feel smoother and hydrated without irritation, redness or dryness.

I thoroughly enjoyed this product!  I found that it kept my skin remarkably breakout free. It really reduced the redness of the stubborn spots and helped clear up potential spots before they became full blown spots.

Overall, I really enjoyed this skincare line. I would definitely recommend it to anyone with the occasional spots or full blown breakouts. 

I have a travel size of the Intensive Blemish Serum and Stay Clear Cream to giveaway to one lucky reader.
This giveaway will end October 14th, 2012.





If you want healthier skin, and a happier life, then I think you all should check out the Evologie skincare line!

Marika Venus Crew Neck Dy Wick Short Sleeve Tee Review and Coupon Code

Hello fashionistas!
Today I have another fabulous Marika product to review for you all. 
Yes, this product was sent to me to consider for review, but all opinions are my own. 

The Marika® Tek line "offers an EXCLUSIVE breathable, super soft, high tech wicking fabric and finish (Dry-Wik®) for the ultimate in cool dry comfort. The Dry-Wik®) technology wicks away moisture, making for an enjoyable workout." 



This shirt is a more tight fitting workout top, so if you like looser shirts to work out in I would order a size larger than normal. The colors that it is available in are Fandango Pink and Ultra Violet (the color I received). I really loved that the stitching on the shirt was in contrasting colors. 
The shirt is made with 70% polyester and 30% poly rayon. 

Living in Florida and working out outside equals a lot of sweating, so I was very impressed that when I came in from working out that this shirt was not soaking wet with sweat. The shirt actually wicked away the sweat! I paired this with their Marika Slimming Pant Capri and it was a  slimming workout ensemble.

Overall I feel that this shirt definitely delivers on what it says it does. I would recommend that if you're in the market for a fashionable workout shirt that you should check this out. Normally the price would be $28, but the sweet people over at Marika have sent a coupon code for you all! If you use the code TEK20 through all of September you will receive 20% off this shirt.

Have a great day!
