August/Summer Favorites

 

I am not usually a nail polish person but every once in a while I will "treat" myself and have my nails done. I did this last month in preparation for the wedding. The night before the wedding rehearsal we had an impromptu Girls Spa with my cousins. I was leaning towards the blue polish (which is aptly named "Cinderella"). At the last minute I decided to use the gray (Slate) and I am still surprised that I liked it so much!!! 

 

I've seen several varieties of these hair ties, but after buying a Goody's pack I am hooked. When my hair is back in a ponytail I just pull this off my arm and wrap it. When I pull it off I don't have a bazillion strands of hair coming off in my hand or on the tie. It makes a cute bracelet as well. LOL

 

I brought this Bath and Body Set during the 75% off sale not thinking it would become a favorite just a really great bargain (I think I paid like $3.00 each for them). Out of all the scents I purchased this one is the one I grabbed the most. You can't tell in the picture but I am just about out of the shower gel. I even took it home with me during vacation (I usually just use the bath products I keep stashed at my mom's house).

 

I am loving the Ipsy subscription I get each month (I plan to do a monthly reveal and review starting with this months bag). So far my favorite item has been the BH Cosmetics palette (especially San Francisco and Malibu) from a few months ago. Not surprising since BH cosmetics is one of my favorite places for eye shadow.

 

The bridesmaids wore white Converse in the wedding because the bride is a Converse addict...lol (Trice would agree with this statement if she saw it). At the last minute the older cousins decided to get in on the deal (Surprisingly I never got to take a pic of that). I brought my Converse thinking I would only wear them that one time and now I find myself wanting to buy another pair!!!

 

 

I purchased these two purse while on our Anniversary trip to Florida back in June. I brought them thinking they would make great basics for the winter and fall but I have been using them all summer and I'm in love (in case you didn't know I am a purse girl at heart. I would rather purchase a nice bag then shoes).

 

 

This summer was the summer of sandals for me! I can probably say with confidence that I have just about every color under the rainbow now. Not sure which colors I will get next year. LOL The three above were my favorites in addition to a silver pair that I have just about worn out. The green ones in the back came from Target and are extremely comfortable!!!

 

 

This Thirty-One Bag was a gift from my cousin who got married. I love this bag!!!! I'm using it as a mobile office. And idea I got while watching At Home With Nikki. At some point I will share how I am using it in a more detailed blog post. I knew the first time I had a Thirty One Catalog in my hand that I would be hooked! I now have a long list of must haves (as if I need another bag anything...lol).

 

I haven't had time to read any books this summer, and very little TV. But I have become addicted to Vlogs on YouTube. My favorite this summer has been The SacconeJoly Family. Their daughter Emilia is the cutest baby ever and she is always happy (or so it seems..lol). Nicki teases me that my day is not complete until I get my Emilia fix!
