LimeLight by Alcone Skincare

I was recently sent samples of some of LimeLight by Alcone's skincare line by the lovely Jayne of jaynemicaela.com to try out. Now lately I've heard a lot of great things about LimeLight, so I was excited to get to try some of their product for myself!
Jayne sent me a 3-Day supply of LimeLight's Skin Polish, Calm Balm, and Dream Clean, as well as a catalog of their products and how to use them effectively.

Six Blogger Style // How to Wear a Floral Sundress

giftofgabbyblog_sixbloggerstyle_August2017_Floral-Sundress-Collage.jpg
I recently gathered a small group of style bloggers with an idea. What if we all decided on a general item of clothing, print, or fashion trend and styled it our own way?

There are so many different ways to wear pretty much everything, and I love to see how different people style similar items. And so, myself and five other lovely ladies have started Six Blogger Style! This is a once-a-month feature on each of our blogs where our readers can see each of our personal styles.

Since this is the first month, I'm going to introduce everyone underneath their posts! Everyone has written a short introduction for themselves, and I'll be linking to their blog posts as well so you can learn more about each of their outfits!

What I Wore: Pretty In Pink

 I've been on such a pink kick lately it's insane. I just LOVE this top and when I saw these shoes on sale at Modcloth AND got a 40% off + free shipping coupon in the mail, I HAD to jump on it (I ended up only paying $21.99 total for the shoes!)

How to Reverse-Engineer a Thesis Statement for Your Research Essays

_giftofgabby_2017_How-To-Reverse-Engineer-A-Thesis-Statement-For-Your-Research-Essays
I have always loved writing. My favorite assignments in school were most always writing assignments and essays. But because I am more of a creative writer than a research essay person, I often struggled with research essays. There were always so many different sides to take on issues and various ways  to support or denounce each of these. If you're in college, I'm sure you already know how many research essays you end up having to write, and without a plan it can take forever. Luckily, I came up with a really easy way to focus in on what to write on.
