I have been beyond MIA on the blog over the past month. I tell you guys this often, but I am an emotional person who likes to BASK in the good moments of life. May was one of those months for me. I was finishing up my first year of teaching with the most wonderful students and staff in the nation and to me, my priorities in May were to love on those kids as much as I could before they left me for middle school. This left me emotionally (and mentally) exhausted at the end of the day. I am not complaining AT ALL, in fact, I believe what I get to do for a living is an absolute blessing…it’s just why I’ve been a little absent recently. But now, summer is in full swing and I am back to bring you some fashion/travel/fitness/food/home fun! I’m going to share what I did in May and then if you scroll to the bottom of today’s post you’ll see all of the amazing things that are coming my way (and yours too, through the blog!).
I worked with Neutrogena in the month of May. Below are all of my favorites from what I tried. I have used the foundation since the beginning of college. My entire friend group was wearing it in different shades at one point.
I celebrated my beautiful momma#2’s birthday with my family at my favorite place (hibachi and sushi…does it get any better than that?). My dress + other floral/printed dresses are linked below.
I happy hour’ed a lot and found out I love white wine. I have never been into wine before this month! It’s so yummy to drink in the summer too because it is so refreshing.
Alex planned a morning at the farmer’s market with me and I cried when he told me we were going because I was SO excited! We got homemade spicy pickles, a balsamic jam, some yummy salsa, peaches and bell peppers! I can’t wait to go back and get dates & figs this month. This teeny market is in downtown Frisco every Saturday until October! Shop my look below:
I wore a TON of BuddyLove looks this month, but this one is by far my fave! I love the print and the fit of this romper. It is easily going on my beach trip with me this month. Shop it here:
My entire high school friend group rented a party barge for Memorial day and had a BLAST! Mine and Alex’s suits are from the same place and super affordable! They also matched without being too matchy (which is my fave because I’m extra and want to match my guy).
And I finally had a millisecond to shop the Nordstrom half-yearly sale. I didn’t get a post up about it because I didn’t go too crazy, but I will link my picks from the sale here:
Whew, that was long…and I really didn’t even include any school stuff in this post, but May was WILD!!!! I wanted to give you a heads up of what is to come in my life over the next two months because usually what is happening in my life is also happening on the blog!
California: I am possibly going on a last minute trip with my family to San Diego and I would leave next week. They are going for my step brothers graduation and staying in a condo on the beach. Their trip plans include a sail boat day, Disney land, Seaworld and the beach! I would only be going for the later end of their trip…but they did say they would save Disney until I got there!!!! I am freaking OUT!
Florida: At the end of June I am traveling with Alex’s entire family to the keys in Florida! His family has gone on this trip for 50 years! I am so lucky to be tagging along this year, it will be my first time going! I can’t wait to bum it on the beach with my favorite family for an entire week!
Moving: The day we get back from Florida we are moving into an apartment together! We are excited about this next chapter of our lives together. During the month of July you can expect a lot of new recipes coming your way, because I am going to be a cooking machine in our new place! I am so excited to cook for Alex and try to food together. We also are buying all new furniture and decor, so stay tuned for some home posts!
A Special Collab: I am collaborating on something with a very good friend in the next month. We are just waiting until we can get some pictures done and then we will be live. I am really excited for this and you guys definitely will be too!
If you made it to the end of the post, DM me on Instagram telling me your fave part of today’s post and I am going to pick one winner to receive something from the collab I mentioned earlier! You won’t want to miss it! I love you guys! Spread love and be kind to others!
