Anyone else finding themselves buying more stuff online lately?
Just me? Ok.
I got a lot of good stuff for you guys but first, some updates!
I finally took the leap and cut my hair! 🙂
I have been wanting some baby bangs for about a year now, but never pulled the trigger. And I am so happy that I finally did it. It fits my face so much better and just feels more me. I love it a lot. I will be writing about the products I use and my routine in a blog post soon!
Second, I am going to be posting more blogs, more IG, more Youtube for you guys! I am so excited to finally be doing this more often.
Third, I quit my full-time retail job just over a month ago to do online work! And I am loving it! It is definitely harder to get my routine down and a set schedule for everything, but I am getting there.
So I want to thank you all for going on this journey with me. You are my supporters and the reason I do what I do. 🙂
Make sure you follow all my favorites on my Pinterest! I update it daily with recipes, fashion inspiration, outfit ideas and my must-haves.
So ya, those are all the updates I have for you guys. Now back to my favorites!
Between March and July, I was home more often (I still am), and buying more stuff that I have been wanting to try or wear. And I got some GOOD stuff that are now staples in my closet, or a daily part of my beauty routine. The world is changing pretty damn fast, but I still want to enjoy myself with a little treat sometimes. We all get a little bored, a little sad that we are home more often now, but there’s some awesome stuff online that will help make that process a little easier. From cute sandals, to tea tree oil for my face- to portable metal straws and my new favorite swimsuit, these are all the things I am loving for July! I want to share them all with you guys so maybe you can find something you have been wanting but couldn’t find it. So enjoy all my finds below and I hope you see something you like!!
1. Everyday Essentials
I spend a lot of time on Amazon(thanks Prime!). So I find all kinds of stuff that I didn’t think I needed but want to purchase. From cute face masks to a jade roller- I got some super useful stuff!
1: I am obsessed with nail polish and paint my nails every week, so a cute tray for all my colors was necessary. Buy it here
2: Hair clips. I use them nightly when I take my makeup off and these are a god send! They dont leave any creases in your hair so you can wear them overnight. Buy them here
3: Reusable metal straw keychain. Need a straw in a pinch? I saw these on amazon and thought- well that is genuis. I dont have to worry about using straws! Buy it here
4: I typically have 3 beverages around me at all times- I just do. Its coffee, water and then a fruit drink/pressed juice. So because I always drink iced coffee in the morning, I bought the skinny cup on Amazon. It has great ratings and keeps my coffee cold all day! And its really cute. Buy the cute mug here
I also got some teeth whitening pens (because why not!) and a jade roller that I keep in my fridge and use in the morning to waken my skin up. Super bougy but I love it. Shop all my favorite Amazon purchases below!!

2. Beauty
I can get carried away with beauty stuff...
https://shopstyle.it/l/bk8ivI like to try new brands and new skincare all the time, so I can spend a lot of money at Sephora.
But, since quarantine I have found the products that are part of my daily routine. My skincare routine usually goes:
Face wash, toner, serum, moisturizer, eye cream, cbd serum. I know that sounds like a lot, but it pays off! My current favorites in beauty:
1: Biossance Tea Tree Balancing Oil. This has been a must-have for a while now. It smells good, makes my skin clear up and keeps it looking bright. Buy it here
2: R & CO Trophy Shine and Texture Spray. Holy crap- this is an amazing product for short hair! It makes my hair flexible and shiny without the straw feeling. A must if you have short hair! And it smells like coconut! Buy it here
3: Jo Malone Cologne in Wood Sage & Sea Salt. I got this sample in a Sephora Play Box and fell in love. I love the earthy/musky smells so this was right up my alley. If you like the deeper scents, this cologne is great. It is also gender neutral based perfumes/colognes by Jo. Buy it here
Some more purchases that I am loving:
The brightening serum with cannabis by Aethera. This is a beauty must. I noticed a huge difference in the quality and texture of my skin! And it smells exactly like fruit loops. Try it here

I spend way too much time on this site. Their stuff is always so cute and the quality is pretty awesome. I have yet to get something from Nasty Gal that I didn’t love. The top I am wearing in the image above is from there! It has puff sleeves and a wrap around back. I love tie tops. But I bought more than that last month. Biker shorts, a sparkly dress and some fun star pattern bell bottoms. See all my purchases below!

4.Shoes and Accessories
If there is anything I love in the summer, it is cute sandals! I now have over 6 pairs of strappy sandals because I have a problem! I also got a new transparent shopper from H&M, a cowboy hat and some crazy beautiful tie sandals from Mango. (in image to the left)

5. Food and Recipes
I am an avid Whole Foods person, and they have some amazing snack options there. From Ruby Jewel ice cream sandwiches to sweet and spicy gummies… I could spend all day there.
Some of my favs:
1: Ruby Jewel Ice Cream Sandwich. The BEST chocolate chip cookies I have ever had with vanilla ice cream. Shop it here
2: Parm Crisps. If you love cheese as much as I do, you need to try these yummy snacks. Dried cheese!! Buy it here
3: This Golden Milk Latte recipe. I am obsessed with Turmeric, so this is a must.
4: Basil Pasta Cavatappi recipe. I LOVE this pasta so much. And basil/pesto is all I want to eat.
6.Wellness and Inspiration
I found this list of things you can do to be healthier and happier in 2020 from theeverygirl.com
Because lets be honest, 2020 is a lot MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY. So anything to alleviate that is really nice. I love that list because it is so simple. We forget to just take a second and breathe these days and we take a lot for granted on the daily. So remember to tell those you love that you care about them, to write down your intentions for the day and breathe.
Some inspiration I found that I am loving:
1: Jacquemus S/S 2021 fashion show. Absolutely stunning.
2: This art made of homegrown botanicals. (image to left). Stunning and mesmerizing!
Feeling Inspired?
I hope so!!
There is a lot going on in the world lately, but there are some awesome things to buy and look at 🙂 I hope you enjoyed my full July list of things I am loving and things I am inspired by.
There will be lots more blogs coming your way, and of course- fall fashion posts soon! My favorite season is coming and I am SO EXCITED!
But for now, enjoy some summer stuff like reusable straws and cute sandals.

Enjoy yourself and remember to breathe girl!
