Ice Cream & Popsicle Nails
I wanted to do something fun with my nails before I go back to work next week and while digging through some of my nail things I came across old Flash Tattoo nail tattoos that I got a few years ago. I decided to paint my nails and put an ice cream cone on my middle fingers and a popsicle on my ring fingers. My light pink nail polish is at my parents’ house or else I would’ve used a lighter polish – maybe even white – to let the tattoos really pop, but this will do for now! I couldn’t find these exact nail tattoos from Flash Tattoo, but…

#fbf Seaside Stroll
I met up with Lauren yesterday for a late summer photoshoot and we got so lucky with the weather. It rained in the morning, was cloudy for most of the afternoon, and then the clouds parted and it was a beautiful evening. The same thing happened during our summer photoshoot at a small beach last year, when the photo below was taken. It poured the first half of the day and then became a gorgeous evening. With my summer break winding down, I thought it was a good time to share this throwback photo. ““The ocean is everything I want to be. Beautiful, mysterious, wild, and free.” — Unknown

July 2020 Favorites
We’re already at the last day of July. Part of me can’t believe it’s going to be August tomorrow and part of me feels like this is the longest year in history. I only have a few favorites this month and I know I sometimes say that and then the list ends up being longer than intended. But, I really do only have a few this time! One of the things I did this month was float down the Delaware River for a few miles. It was my first time tubing and it was so nice and relaxing. It was especially nice to get out since life isn’t exactly normal…

Donut Tube + Leopard One-Piece
What happens when you’re stuck in a heat wave, your community pool isn’t opening this summer because of COVID, and your parents won’t let you put an inflatable pool in their backyard because it will ruin their lawn? You sit in a donut pool float with the underground sprinklers going. It actually was really refreshing! I did take these photos pretty early in the morning though so that my parents’ neighbors wouldn’t think I was totally crazy. I love this leopard print wrap one-piece bathing suit too! I wore it last weekend when I did this whole tube in the sprinklers thing along with a white lace cover-up. Swimsuit: Aerie…

Songs on Repeat
I’m one of those people that when I find a song or songs I like I can’t stop listening to them. I can literally listen to the same song on repeat for an hour car ride. Back when I was in high school, my friend and I would call these songs on repeat our “summer jams”. The current song on repeat for me is “Be Kind” by Marshmello and Halsey. It’s so good. I love the melody and the lyrics. I thought I would round up some songs (including “Be Kind”) that I’ve been listening to a lot lately. Some are old, some are newer. They’re just what I’ve been…

Summer Bracelet Stack
Before summer officially winds down I wanted to share this elastic bracelet stack with you guys because it is the ultimate summer stack. At the beginning of the summer Baublebar came out with summer bracelets. Some came in sets, some were mix and match. I bought one set called the Breigh Bracelet Set and the multicolor heart bracelet called the Cyprus Bracelet. These bracelets aren’t just fun, but they give me major nostalgia feels. They remind me of being a kid in the 90s. Elastic, colorful bracelets galore! Basically these look like kid bracelets, but for adults. I think they’re so fun and easy to wear since they are elastic.…

Birthday Thoughts & #fbf Hot Air Balloons
For my birthday, dozens of hot air balloons were released from an airfield in New Jersey. Just kidding! These photos are from the annual New Jersey Balloon Festival a few weeks ago, but I am telling the truth that it is my birthday today. In recent years I have had very mixed feelings about my birthday. I’m, of course, grateful for another year, but do not love getting older. This year, while only 3/4 done, has been full of ups and downs like most years. I started the year off with all positive vibes and I even wrote numerous blog posts about how I was doing this whole positive vibes…
