March Favorites

Since the first day of 2017 we have been reminding you guys (and ourselves) to not forget to take care of yourself amidst the crazy hustle and bustle of life.  Each month we have been sharing some of our favorite products with you in an attempt to make things a little less overwhelming when you go to shop.  We will reiterate again: you can never treat yourself too often! Here are some of our favorite bath, body, skin and hair care products at the moment.  You’ll probably recognize a few, as we will always have a few tried and true go-to faves.

Cali Vibes

We just spent 5 wonderful days in Los Angeles for Catherine’s bachelorette party and we got to fit so many of our favorite Cali things into those days.  If you were following along with us on insta-story and snapchat you got to see some behinds the scenes fun! If you didn’t, I won’t spoil all the details QUITE yet as we will be sharing our adventures over the next few blog posts! For now : here’s some pieces inspired by what we wore to snap some pix by the Hollywood sign.

Out West

It is no secret that I will use any excuse to go back to Los Angeles and I am so excited for Reb and I to head to the city of angels for a week. The Crystal Press has allowed this coast to coast trip to occur more often and this time around, some of my favorite girls from all over the place will be meeting us in Hollywood to celebrate my bachelorette!

Spotlight on: Spring Accessories

An outfit can be made simply by the right pair of sunnies or the perfect earrings.  Spring is just around the corner and it’s time to give your accessories an update! Here are some of our favorite things out there right now.

Red Carpet Ready

This post was sponsored by Babbleboxx.com on behalf of Single Edition Media.Sure we may not all be headed to the Red Carpet this awards season, but who doesn’t want to feel red carpet ready all the time? And do it in the comfort of your home?  We are still continuing our New Year, New You theme here on The Crystal Press and thanks to some great products from Babbleboxx, we are feeling extra chic this month.  (more…)

Trend Alert: Stripes

One could argue that stripes never go out of style and we would certainly not disagree. However, these days we are seeing them everywhere. From the runway to the street, stripes are alive and well. So jump on the bandwagon or update your collection today! It’s no shocker that most of our favorite pieces are black and white but don’t be afraid to step out of the box.

We are especially digging this top (and its from Forever 21!) and this jumper would be so amazing leading into spring and summer!

Happy Valentine’s!

Happy Valentine’s, Galentine’s, Treat Yo’ Self Day etc…. We are always looking for reasons to celebrate so for this one we are going to go with ‘Treat Yo’ Self’ and might be taking our own advice today as well.  Keep up the New Year, New You motto with some fun, girly products. A few suggestions below:  (more…)

Black + White Basics

Some people prepare for spring with florals and patterns, but we like to have a tendency to stick to the basics all year ’round. Nothing against colors and prints, of course, but you cant go wrong with black and white. It is a given that our over-packed suitcases for NYFW are full of our fave monochromatic looks. Here are a few of our favorite *mostly affordable* pieces right now!   (more…)

Spotlight on: Maven Made

We have said it before, but we will say it again >> Richmond is home to so many amazing local artists, vendors and shops.  One of our favorites in town is Maven Made – an all natural skincare + wellness brand run by Richmond girl boss Bethany.  I have been trying out the three products that she shared with us and I am obsessed.  We have tried countless facial serums and rosewater facial sprays over the years – as they are products we cannot live without- and I can honestly say that her Rosewater Wondermist and Facial Serum are the best of the best. The addition of lavender in the Rosewater facial mist is such a great added bonus, and is so incredibly refreshing!  I think its safe to say I’m hooked. Additionally, as a migraine sufferer, the headache and tension remedy has been a serious blessing.  I don’t leave home without it!

New Year, New You

This post was sponsored by Babbleboxx but all opinions are our own.A month into 2017 and we are still feeling very gung-ho and enthusiastic about the whole “New Year, New You” mantra.  Dedicating more time to ourselves, meditating, being more mindful, reading new books and trying out new products are all part of said mantra. Luckily for us, we have each other to lean on, we are constantly encouraging one another on long work days and we know we’ve got a partner in this-whole-thing-called-life.   (more…)
