    Holiday Beauty Gift Guide 2019

    December 11, 2019 /

    I used to be obsessed with getting limited edition holiday beauty items. They were just all so cute! But over time, I became more realistic – I don’t really need all those limited edition products and I don’t need to spend all my money on them. So in recent years I pick out just one or a few things that I really really want and think I can get a lot of use out of. I picked up 2 holiday beauty items during Black Friday from Ulta. I had my eye on a few Too Faced holiday items – they always have the cutest holiday sets – but I ultimately decided…

    Holiday Pajamas

    November 30, 2019 /

    I’m a big fan of pajama sets. I don’t always wear matching pajamas – sometimes I mix and match lounge pieces I have, but I can’t say no to a cute pair of pajamas especially holiday ones. I think holiday pajamas are the ones I buy the most. And sometimes cute short sets in the summer. I got 2 sets of holiday pajamas this year on sale and since it’s Thanksgiving weekend a lot of sales are still going on. So if you’re like me and love holiday pajamas and comfy cozy ones at that, then keep reading! The first pair I bought this year are from the Extra Soft…

    It’s the last day of November! How?! I felt like it was the beginning of November when Thanksgiving was around the corner and now we’re at the very end. As usual, I’ve rounded up some things I loved this month that made it into my monthly favorites. First up, I know everyone goes crazy for the Starbucks holiday cups but they really are so pretty. Here are shots of 2 of the designs. They just make me happy! Speaking about holiday, I put up my Christmas tree the weekend before Thanksgiving. Usually I wait until the day after but I was busy all Thanksgiving weekend so I did it early. I…

    Christmas Memories

    December 3, 2017 /

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year! I love this time of year because everything is so festive. I love Christmas decorations and everything is just pretty, merry, and bright. It’s usually cold enough here in December to feel like winter, but not bitterly cold like in January or February. The night air smells good like a mix of pine, chimneys, and crisp air. Everything just feels magical! I love the quote above and think it’s so true! So to get in to the holiday spirit I thought I’d share a few sweet Christmas memories with you all. My family’s Christmas tree is pretty standard in terms of decorating…

    Happy Chinese New Year

    February 19, 2015 /

    Today is Chinese New Year or Lunar New Year. This year is the year of the Goat or Sheep depending on what you want to call it. I’ve heard it both ways. There are a whole list of traditions and things that people do to prepare and celebrate the new year – way too many to list here and my family only does a handful of them. I thought I’d just share a couple food pictures of things that my family ate (or made in advance for today) last night for New Year’s Eve, which is a mix of typical foods for the new year and things my family traditionally…

    Christmas Nails

    December 21, 2014 /

    I did my nails yesterday and decided to go with a Christmas theme since Christmas is just a few days away! I kept it really simple and fool proof, but the effect is fun and Christmasy. I used OPI’s “Alpine Snow”, Sephora by OPI “Good Tidings We Bling”, and a Revlon top coat. Even the nail polish names sound wintery and festive! I did 2 coats of the white, “Alpine Snow”, polish.  Then I put on “Good Tidings We Bling” which is all different size glitters of red and green. After about every 2 nails, I had to shake the bottle up to make sure I was getting glitter and…

    Thanksgiving Eats

    November 29, 2014 /

    Thanksgiving and food go hand in hand. It’s a time to reflect on everything you are thankful for and on a lighter note a time to eat to your heart’s content. Here are some snapshots of what I ate on Thanksgiving!   I had family visiting for the week and my cousin brought her fondue set. I love cheese and chocolate fondue so I was super excited for this! We had some cheese fondue as an afternoon snack before we feasted for Thanksgiving dinner.   We bought an electric fryer recently and decided to fry our turkey this year.   The turkey came out so delicious and moist, but left…

The Do-Over by @lynnpainterkirkle follows high sch The Do-Over by @lynnpainterkirkle follows high school junior, Emilie. Emilie is smart, friendly, and always follows the rules. Having divorced parents that fight more often than they pay attention to her, Emilie has lived her life trying to be highly organized and never cause any problems. She plans the perfect Valentine’s Day for her and her bf, Josh, but the entire day is a disaster and includes finding out Josh is cheating. Wanting nothing more than for February 14 to be over, she is not happy to find out she is living in a time loop and every morning is Valentine’s Day all over again. After multiple repeat days with nothing changing, she decides to have a DONC - Day of No Consequences - where she will do and say whatever she wants. Going along with her on the DONC? Her grumpy chem partner, Nick. 💗📚🗓️

I loved this book! It was so adorable. Emilie was such a good character and I loved all the days she spent with Nick, even if he didn’t remember. Such a cute book! My full review is on the blog ✨📖

I like reading a good thriller every once in a whi I like reading a good thriller every once in a while, but I don’t naturally gravitate towards them. So when I tell you I was hooked on Dark Obsessions by @marie.sutro , it’s a big deal! 📖

Dark Obsessions is the second book in the Kate Barnes series, but can be read as a stand-alone. While Kate is on leave from the San Francisco Police Department, she goes to a small town in Washington State to try to get some closure with her estranged mother. While there, a gruesome murder is discovered and the sheriff asks Kate to help him investigate. Their investigation uncovers an ever larger and more sinister crime ring. 🕵🏻‍♀️

The story was so good and I loved Kate and Tony (the sheriff). My only critique is that it was a little long, but that didn’t stop me from reading because I needed to know the ending! My full review is on the blog ✨

Finale was a great ending to the Caraval series. I Finale was a great ending to the Caraval series. It picked up right where Legendary left off and I loved being back in the magical world of Caraval ✨. 

The Fates have been released from the Deck of Destiny and the worst of them all - The Fallen Star - has taken Scarlett. Now they need to all work together to save Scarlett. I loved the book! I just wish I could’ve spent more time with Tella, Legend, Scarlett, and Julian!! 💖😍📚My full review is on the blog ✨
