Gold, glitter, and some French; how much more darling can you get? These little elements make up some of blogger Emily Snider’s site, Em La Jolie. La Jolie stands for the pretty, lovely, or nice-looking, which is a French translation that describes Emily’s blog right on point. This twenty-one year old East Coast-at-heart gal is currently blogging all the way from Paris. Sounds like a dream, doesn’t it? She shares some breathtaking photos of her travels with her readers, including food reviews, overseas looks, and her thoughts about her Paris journey. Her “101 Things in 1,001 Days” bucket-list post, which she started last year as a New Year’s resolution, is a must-check-out piece on her blog, especially for the holiday season. Try it out yourself (I’m getting mine started)! Continue reading to check out Emily’s tips on beauty/fashion that we had the pleasure of speaking with her about.
Cliché: What are your top beauty/fashion routines?
Emily Snider: For beauty, I like to keep my look natural. My go-to routine always involves exfoliating my face, darkening my brows/eyelashes, and a slight cheek contour with bronzer. When it comes to fashion, I’m also a minimalist. I wear a lot of natural and dark hues, but I love to accent my look with a cute scarf, jewelry, or an oversized sweater.
Name the top three products you couldn’t live without this season.
Burt’s Bees Peach Ginger Exfoliating wipes (perfect for on-the-go), oversized sweaters, and my Michael Kors Jet Set tortoiseshell watch.
Any staple items that you think are fall must-haves?
Definitely a pair of leather riding boots. They’re so versatile, comfortable, and practically scream “it’s autumn” when you wear them! Also, big scarves and the oh-so-necessary Pumpkin Spice Lattes.
What’s your number one tip to feeling confident in what you’re wearing?
Comfort comes first. If you’re going to be constantly readjusting, you’re not going to be happy, and you know what Audrey Hepburn says…
