5 Things

I didn't realize this until I was writing about the third 5 things of the week but these all have to do with products you can use in the shower. But these are all things that I am loving at the moment.

5 Things

The Lilly Sale: The sale is finally here and I couldn't be any more excited! This is my favorite time of the year because it is when Lilly is finally affordable and at a really good price. I don't have anything specific in mind for this year but I will surely be getting something! The sale will start on September 9th and end on September 11th, I'm not sure if they will be adding more to the sale as the days go on. Look out for a post on Monday which is sharing all of my favorite Lilly finds!

Sushi roll socks: How cute are these new J.Crew factory no-show socks with sushi rolls all over them! The J.Crew no-show socks are the only socks I wear all year long with any type of shoe. They always have the cutest designs and I have wayy too many pairs.

Off the shoulder top: I recently bought this top for a Zac Brown Band concert from amazon through Shein. I personally found the sleeves to be too long so Kaitlin hemed them to about half the length and gave the shirt a whole new look.

Foot Mask: I have fallen in love with these masks especially during the summertime. I never wear shoes in the summer but my feet get so dry and so gross (feet freak me out) but these masks are so easy and get rid of your dry skin so quickly. All it is is a plastic sock filled with this liquid goo and you slide it on and sit. Then in a few days, your skin starts to peel and look soo much better.

Evelyn Henson Computer Wallpaper: Each month the artist Evelyn Henson sends out a wallpaper within in newsletter and I love them. I always get so excited to see what each month is going to look like. Besides her wallpapers she has amazing prints, she has so much talent.

5 Things

Simply Southern Tee's: I fell in love with simply southern t-shirts on my first trip down to Myrtle Beach South Carolina. Down in the Carolinas these shirts are everywhere and in so many different styles. But up here in New York they are pretty hard to find besides online. While on our recent trip to the Thousand Islands I found one!! I bought the one lines above from the cutest store that the link will bring you to!

Linen Shorts: I live in these Old Navy Linen shorts and right now they are on sale for an amazing price! I just bought a pair of black and a pair of tan, I already own pink and blue. These shorts are my go-to for car rides or lounging around the house in.

Riverdale: I am so far behind on this and I am so mad at myself that I waited this long to watch this show! I am only on season one and so far I am completely obsessed with it.

Amazon Bluetooth headphones: This was my one and only purchase from prime day, I feel kinda sad that this is all I bought but I honestly just didn't need anything. I have been wanting a pair of wireless headphones but I don't want to pay the price. So I found these for only 14$ on prime day and decided to get them and if they are horrible they were cheap.

Drawstring bag: How cute is this drawstring bag from amazon, I really think that it looks like a dupe for a Hershel bag. I love drawstring bags in the summertime for the pool and hikes and other summer activities. The water-resistant polyester makes it easy to throw in wet towels and bathing suits and my water bottles always seem to leak so this comes in handy when that happens.

5 Things

1. Diet Ginger ale and lemonade: This is my healthy drink of the summer, it is so refreshing for the hot summer days. I keep getting the cans of these and they do not last longer than a week in the house. It is the perfect drink to have while out by the pool and I don't like seltzer (I want to so bad) so I feel like this is a good substitute.

2. One piece bathing suit: I am loving this bathing suit from Target which was perfect for the Fourth of July and all other upcoming summer events. I have so many blue and black suits so I really love this red and white one to mix things up.

3. Amazon Headbands: I talked about these in my Tie Back T-shirt post earlier this week but I have seriously been living in these! I always hated the ones that wrapped all the way around your head because they would never stay on. But these are the more traditional headband style so they stay right in place and there are so many different ways to wear them!

4. Quai Leave-in Conditioner: I love to go swimming in the summer, I would literally go in the pool every day if the weather allows. But there is one thing that I hate about swimming which is how my hair feels after I get out of the pool. I have found that using this leave-in conditioner after I get out of the pool has done amazing things and is so much more comfortable.

5. STRANGER THING: I saved the best one for last because it is back and better than ever! Kyle and I have only watched a few episodes so far and it is soooo good! I feel like this season is so different
then the other two.

5 Things

1. Gingham tie-waist top
This J.Crew factory top is a favorite of mine from last year and they brought it back again this year! They even brought the style back in grey and white stripes which is on my list to buy. I love this top by itself but also under a cardigan is super cute.

2. Luke Combs Prequel
I swear Luke Combs cannot write a bad song even if he tired. The new prequel that he just came out with is even more proof that he is amazing and so talented. These 5 songs are the perfect blend of sad, make you feel something songs and party, scream-singing in the car songs. If you haven't heard/ really listen to "Even though I'm leaving" you need to stop what you are doing and go listen to it. I apologize in advance because you may shed a tear or two like I did.

3. Simply 7 Hummus Chips
I literally can't get enough of these chips, they are so good. I can't even describe the taste because it is not like anything I've ever had but if you like hummus then you will love these. And the best part is you can eat a bunch of them for only a few calories, gluten-free, non-GMO, and a ton of other great things. I love the sea salt ones because I can't find the other flavors but I bet they are good too.

4. Tula Face Cleanser 
Tula Face Cleanser was one of the products in the spring fabfitfun box that I was really excited for. With my sensitive skin, it feels so good when I find a good cleanser that doesn't irritate my face. I have been really only using this cleanser and my skin has never looked better.

5. TAL Waterbottle
I have been obsessed with my Lilly Pulitzer swell waterbottle since I received it for my birthday last year. But I had been craving a water bottle that had a straw piece attached so it was easier for working out. I found this TAL waterbottle for only 11$ at Walmart!! I don't think I have ever drunk this much water but I love this water bottle so it is forcing me to drink more!

Five Favorites

Happy Monday! This is the start to a very busy week, but I don't have class this Saturday so I will be looking forward to the weekend this entire week. To start this week on a positive note I figured I would share a few of my favorites today.

1. Sneakers - I have talked about these shoes before but I am so in love with them that I had to feature them in my favorites post. These are actually from Target and are only 35$ which is such a good deal for a good pair of sneakers. Plus they are super comfortable. 

2. iPhone case I just purchased this phone case off of Amazon, it was only 13$! Why I love it so much it one for the price and two because it feels like the ones that apple sells which are 35$ each so it is a great dupe for those.  

3. Electric Brush Cleaner - I do not clean my makeup brushes as much as I should but using this electric brush cleaner makes it a little more fun. Right now I have a video on my Instagram stories which I will add to my favorite things highlight of using this. 

4. Wine red apple watch - I love getting new Apple watch bands, I wanted a color that was more for the fall and I am obsessed with this color. The next one I think is going to be Navy. 

5. Bare Republic dry shampoo - I received this tiny bottle of dry shampoo in one of my Ipsy bags a while back and was too nervous to try it. But the other day I was desperate for dry shampoo and I found this in my stash and I am so mad at my self for waiting so long before using this. I highly recommend and it smells like fruit loops. 

A few other favorites:

• The Morning Toast- I am loving this podcast and how it is also YouTube. I love these two sisters they always put me in a good mood.
• Below Deck - Now that I finished Southern Charm I needed a new show and I know I am so late to this show also but I am loving this Bravo show it's addictive. I'm starting season two today!

5 Things Friday

This has been quite the week and I am so ready for a relaxing weekend to start, 1:00 can't come fast enough today. This week I contracted bronchitis and it may actually be the worst ever. I completely took the day off from school and work on Wednesday to chill out and rest but I still don't feel my best so this weekend is filled with a ton of movies and ice cream.

1. Waterproof Lash Paradise I am obsessed with this mascara I leaning toward it's a pretty good dupe for the better than sex mascara and it's less than half the price. I don't know if I would get the waterproof one again because it is hard to get off but I don't know if that is just because I am not a fan of waterproof in general. 

2. Halloween owl mug- This is an old mug from a Hallmark store but I love to add small touches of fall and Halloween to my bedroom. So I added a cute succulent to this one and it is the perfect touch of fall!

3. Mini Babybell- This is my newest obsession, I don't know if it's the taste of the fact that the wax packaging is so fun to peel. I love to eat these for lunch with some Triscuits. So delicious! 

4. These are a pair of earrings that I received in my rocksbox and I think they are so fun! I wanted to wear them to a fiesta or a margarita night, that's what they remind me of! 

5. Cold medicine- These products have been my life savors this past week!
