About Me!

Welcome to Em's Study Style, my name is Emma! I am a twenty-something student at Marquette University (where I am a Sigma Kappa), currently living in Milwaukee, WI. These are some commonly asked questions, but feel free to email me or comment below if I didn't answer something!

Where are you from?

I was born and raised in Chicago, IL. After college, I plan on staying in Milwaukee to teach in an Elementary School. I can't wait to start a job in Milwaukee and teach all different kinds of students. Milwaukee is beautiful and I love being here.

How tall are you?

I am 5'9, I am pretty tall!

What do you take your pictures with?

Currently using my iPhone 8 Plus but I will be switching to a regular camera soon.

Why did you start a blog?

I started a blog before college but it got lost in the craziness of starting college and work. I restarted this after a few girls suggested I started one. I love to talk about clothes, fashion, fitness, healthy eating, and life in general! I thought only my close friends and family would be reading this to stay up to date on my life but it has grown so much!

What type of hair do you have?

Naturally curly, dirty blonde hair! It is pretty short right now because I got it cut for summer but I might grow it out/get extensions when winter rolls around.

Who takes your pictures?
It is really a mix of myself and a timer but also my boyfriend or sister helps out sometimes!

Leggings I LIVE In

These are my top three favorite leggings that I have in my closet right now!

I love my Alo ones, HERE, are newer for me but I have worn them so often I need to invest in another pair. I know they are on the more pricey side but I have definitely received my money's worth out of these. Plus, I love the mesh detailing on the sides!

Next are my Zella pair, HERE! I will not lie to y'all, I think I own almost 5 pairs of Zella leggings. Whether they are cropped, cut out, high waist, low rise, blue, grey, pink....I have them all. Plus, it doesn't help that Nordstrom has them as part of their sale for only $35, HERE. Or find the cropped ones for only $33, HERE. All sizes are still in stock!

Finally, one of the first pairs of leggings I bought for myself that did not come from TJMaxx or Old Navy...LululeLemon! I love them because of the little zippered pocket in the back and the pocket on the side can fit my cell phone when I go run or workout!

If you have a question about a workout top or my sneakers, shoot me a message at em.studystyle@gmail.com or comment below!

Top 3 Favorite Products

Clinique Moisture Surge {$39}

Laura Mercier Setting Powder {$38} I use the Translucent shade

L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Mascara Primer {$8}

These are my top three holy grail products that I use over and over again.

I love the Clinique Moisture Surge Hydrating Serum for my neck in the summer. In the colder months I tend to use it more often on my face when the air is dry. It is also wonderful after a long plane flight. I will be traveling soon so I plan to bring it with me!

The Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder has worked wonders in this hot summer months. The powder really works to keep my makeup in place all day while giving me a little bit of a matte finish. Nordstrom also sells the product in a Medium Deep shade if you have darker skin!

Finally, my mascara primer by L'Oreal is amazing!! I have used other primers in the past but switched to this one about a year ago and have not looked back. It goes on smooth without clumping which means I can put less coats of mascara on my eyelashes. I use it when I want a more fuller look, especially when my eye lash extensions are not in. ALSO, its $8 so what is not to love about it.

Do you have a favorite makeup product that you cannot live without?

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

The Nordstrom sale is still only opened to card holders until Thursday. So those of you who haven't checked it out yet--I highly recommend that you do! I stopped by the day it opened up and wasn't disappointed. However, so many bloggers tend to go a little overboard there, or at least I think so but that is coming from the broke college student (lol).

These are a few of the pieces I picked up and a couple I have my eye on in hopes they restock:
