^annoying hair flying away that I missed in my braid haha || Cover Up (similar) || Swim Suit || Sunglasses || Self Tanner || So I'll admit it, I used to use tanning beds. My mom is probably cringing reading that and I'm sure a lot of you are too. Not only were they horrible for me, but they are ridiculously expensive and I found I was wasting so much money on something that could potentially kill me (or at least give me leathery skin). So recently I…

  I spent Easter weekend at my lake house, this has recently become a tradition for my family and I love it! We did all the usual baking along with our traditional easter egg hunt and baskets from the Easter Bunny! This year we got candy (too much candy, if there is such a thing) and some stuff from lush that I am excited to try out! I have been obsessed with braids recently, and this is one of my favorites…

Before I started, I washed my hair then used a heat protectant and silk treatment (I'm not in love with the products I used so I'll wait to share those with you, anyone have suggestions?). I'm using my favorite curling iron which is a Hot Tools Tapered Wand in 1 ¼ inch. First I…

Sweet tea used to be my weakness. If I wasn't drinking Arizona Arnold Palmer I was buying a venti black iced tea sweetened from Starbucks (that's sweet tea in 'bucks language). Not only did I find that spending $3.00 on a cup of tea almost everyday was expensive, it was also costing my health. After a little research, I finally figured out that caffeine was a majority of the blame for my moods, stress,  and over-eating that I sometimes couldn't control. Cutting out…

Ahh nothin’ like a mid-week day at the spa...and by spa I mean my kitchen with some winter candles going and the furnace up trying to beat this sudden cold weather.

First off, you’ll need: -One ripe banana -One tablespoon of honey -Two tablespoons of yogurt -Two tablespoons of brown sugar Start by mashing the banana in a microwave safe bowl (you’ll know…
