Summer Staples - Dresses, Bags & Shoes

Hi guys! 

I know a lot of you are shopping for summer and I have found some great pieces I want to share with you. I always make sure to share pieces that I know are good and I have purchased so that I know you guys will be happy with them. I'll break them down into three categories.

Quarantine Purchases

Hi loves!

I hope you are all doing well. I tried to withhold myself from shopping for things I didn't need during quarantine but we all know how that goes...

I picked up a couple items I absolutely love! I'll share them with you down below.

• Leopard Pajamas - I love the style of these! I will say the elastic band is tight, if you want it looser size up.
• Tie-Dye Long Sleeve & Shorts - This one is my favorite out of all three. The shorts are comfy. I sized up to XL for a relaxed fit. I posted a picture in it on instagram.
• Tie-Dye Jumpsuit - This one is super cute but material is a little thick for the upcoming summer. I love it for around the house though!
• Nespresso Machine - Y'all already know I'm in love with this thing! I have been to a few coffee shops since restrictions are rising, but I still think I can make a better latte at home. 
• Clear Coffee Mugs - Why is coffee so much cuter in a glass mug? I love this set and they are dishwasher safe.
• Clear Straws - I love these because they are a hard plastic! I don't like silicone/metal straws. These are great and come with something to clean them. 
• Glycolic Exfoliating Mask - This is a great dupe for the Peter Thomas Roth mask that is way more $$. It stings/burns a little but that means its working!
• Goli Vitamins - These taste delicious! I am able to get AVC and B12 everyday in gummy form.
• Magic Foot Peel - I know a lot of you are still not getting pedicures/going to salons. This will peel off all the dry dead skin from your foot in about 5-7 days. I would make sure if you are doing this mask that you have no plans for the next week because your feet will be shedding!
• Eyebrow Scissors - Again, not sure how many of you are getting your eyrbwos done but these have been super handy.
• Tinkle Razors - Great for gentle exfoliation/getting rid of peach fuzz.
• Cannon Rebel T7ii - I'm glad I finally bought a camera, I feel like my picture quality is coming out better and I'm excited to make some video content! 
• Sudio Headphones - I have ditched my AirPods since these came in. I just love the sound quality, battery life & they are cute too.

Recipes I've tried during quarantine

I have definitely been experimenting more in the kitchen during quarantine. I like easy recipes that don't take too much time to make (can anyone relate?).  I've tried some different things that I've loved. I linked all of them below. Let me know if you try any! If you have any good recipes you wanna share, please leave them in the comments.

Breakfast:

- Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes
- Egg sandwich
- Overnight Oats
- Avocado toast
I don't follow a recipe I usually add olive oil, garlic & onion powder & lemon and I mash it all together. Then I spread it on toast & enjoy. You can top with eggs, peppers or eat alone.


Lunch:

- Pad Thai
- Fish Tacos
- Portillos Chop Salad

Snacks: 

- Protien Balls
- Bean Dip
- Spiced Almonds
Toast almonds, add seasoning - I like garlic, onion & chili pepper. I had some agave so the seasoning can stick then I toss them in a bowl.


Desserts:

- Vegan Banana Bread
- Banana Muffins
- Eclair Cake
- Chocolate PB Banana Bites


Drinks:

- Aperol Spritz
-  Frozen Gin & Tonic 
- Empress 75 (Gin Cocktail)
-Iced Peach Green Tea
(Buy this tea, make it & then put it in fridge in a pitcher). When serving, add honey & lemon! Enjoy.


Let me know if you guys try any of these snacks! And let me know if you have any yummy recipes to share.

Amazon Sunglasses under $20

1. Black Cat Eye - I have a thing for Celine dupes because 3 out of 9 of these are just that! These look so expensive but don't cost much at all. Quality is so good too.

2. Heart Shaped Glasses - These are a dupe for YSL sunglasses that are like $400?! I think these are so fun and girly. I wear them a lot.

3. Square Oversized Glasses - My OG pair of sunglasses. I think I wear these the most. I love how oversized they are. 

4.  Pack of two aviators - Such a good deal. Not the best quality ones I've gotten but they get the job done. I don't always reach for the blue/green color so I don't mind them being not the most durable.

5. Pink reflective glasses - These are so cute! I just got them in. I love the circle shape so much and they look like a total Rayban dupe.

6. Blue Light Glasses - These are a must when I wear my contacts! They help looking at the computer screen all day become more bearable. They also look cute on just about everyone.

7. Sojos Aviators - Another one of my most worn! They go with everything. The lense shape is great and they look just like ray bans to me.

8. Rayban Circle dupe - Seriously look just like them & so cute and flattering!

9. Pointed Sunglasses - Another Celine Dupe. The shape makes them look really high end & they're very edgy and cool.

Which pair is your favorite?

Mother's Day Gift Ideas & Priceless Gifts

Mask Set // Pajama // Slippers // Nespresso // Coffee Warmer & Mug // Blowdry Tool // All Saints Bag  // Candle // Blanket // Measuring Spoon Set // Coaster // Monogram Towel 

SHOP THE POST:

Hi all! Mother's Day is around the corner. I already ordered a couple things for my mom because I don't know hot long shipping will take due to the pandemic we are currently in. I also know that not everyone is shopping. Not everyone has 'extra money' even if that stimulus check hit lol. A follower of mine suggested to give some non-tangible gifts that moms would love. Here are a couple!

• Breakfast in bed - Make your mom her favorite breakfast and get her coffee/tea just right.
• Order from her favorite place to eat & bring her a bottle of her favorite wine. 
• Create an at-home spa day. Paint her nails, give her a facial, blow out her hair, etc.
• Set up a bath for her, with a bath bomb or bubbles.
• Write a card. A really heart-felt card. Mom's always keep cards forever. Make sure to date it too!
• Watch her favorite movie with her. 
• Jam out to her favorite artist/band & have a dance party.
• Do a work out together!
• When I was younger I would make a 'coupon book' for my mom. It would include vouchers for me to do the dishes, throw away garbage, cook dinner, etc. You could do something similar. Have her pick a day to have 'off' from being Mom. 
• Plan a zoom party with your family! You can wish your aunts, grandma and all the mom's in your life happy mother's day. You could also make it have a 'theme' so everyone can dress up.  

 

I hope these ideas can inspire you to do something money can't buy for your mom. If you have any suggestions you would like to add to this list, feel free to leave a comment below.
