This new hair oil is amazing, and they gave me a code, SYDNEYCS15, for 15% off! It's so lightweight and makes my hair less frizzy and shinier. I was using Oribe and liked it, but this is definitely better.
We have had so much going on this week with family in town. I love that my sister is staying through the holiday weekend, so we have gotten to spend lots of time together! I haven't really had a chance to kind of sit in stillness and process everything we have going on!
We are off to Ohio just for a very quick trip to see my husband's side of the family. The rest of the holiday weekend is looking like it may rain every single day?! I am hoping that is not the case, but it's very Pittsburgh if that is how it turns out! My husband and I are going to go out to dinner with my sister one night, and then we may do a date night if it rains; otherwise, we hope to get together with some friends!
Tonight I'm having dinner with my 2 cousins, my cousin's boyfriend, sister, and husband, and tomorrow I'm working with a brand and bringing along my mom and sister, which is fun! I hope I can find some downtime at some point to just relax. I've been itching to organize some things that I have kind of let go here at home, so I'm hoping I have a little time for a small project!
I am not a big summer person, but after this winter, I felt like summer would never come, and as it always does, the unofficial start has arrived! I will say, I've never been happier with hot weather, and that's coming from me, who doesn't even love hot weather! I'm also thrilled because it seems like my allergies have calmed and I feel normal again! Such a great feeling!
Wore this to take Henry to his annual vet appointment! So comfy!
Wore this to the wedding this weekend! The dress runs true to size (the size chart is spot on). I am wearing a small. The shoes run a touch big. I got my true size 9 and wish I had gotten an 8.5.
I love my makeup routine. I pretty much use the same products for any occasion. For something dressier, I just apply a bit more and/or take more care and time in application! If I am sharing beauty/makeup/skincare, I don't use filters!
Found these buried in the back of my closet and forgot how much I love them. They feel elegant!
Fun new red pants and a sweater I've had for many years. So comfortable!
I made time to get in lots of steps this week!
Wearing: I've been all over the place with outfits this week! I got dressed up, down, and pretty much everything in between! I tend to dress more casually in the summer months. A dress is so easy to throw on with flat sandals, that is my go-to, or a workout dress or skort.
Eating: This snack combo has been my go-to lately. It's SO delicious. The balsamic crackers from Walmart, the hot honey (this brand is so spicy, I love it) also from Walmart, Cedar's feta dip, which I found at Whole Foods, and some fresh basil. The combo is so fresh, creamy, crunchy, spicy, and sweet. It is basically all flavors in one bite! I think you could make this look pretty and serve it at a get-together as a small snack... It's that good. You can also make your own feta dip. I have done that before. It's incredibly easy, but yes, store-bought is even easier!
This is another good one, albeit a bit random. These are cannellini beans in a sauce. So simple yet somehow incredible. I could eat a bowl on its own, but I added in chicken sausage and spinach to make a lunch out of it, and it was so delicious. I don't eat many beans, but I've been reading about all the benefits, so I've been trying to incorporate more! Honestly, it's not all that hard. I like beans, but I was never sure how to include them in my meals. I'm slowly learning!
Sale: With an upcoming holiday weekend, there are, of course, so many sales! Here are a quick few I have my eye on...
Over the Moon// Now, this is a brand I don't often shop from because I think of it as a wedding registry site, but it's beautifully curated. 15% off with code HAPPYSUMMER. 15% isn't a huge discount, but it's amazing when you consider that many of their items don't go on sale! I've been eyeing
this hat!
Watching: Literally nothing!! I haven't had time, but hoping this weekend, I'll have a moment for some TV! Wha have you all been watching? I feel like there is not much out right now!
Listening: Do you all follow
Cheesegal? My mom and I love Cortney's recipes, but she also has this great
playlist that I have been listening to nonstop!
Loving: My husband wore his Henry cufflinks this weekend. I got them for him for Christmas one year, and they bring us so much joy! Every time he wears them, people ask about them because they are so remarkable! It would make a fun Father's Day gift - thinking my dad would love Buddy's face on his wrists!
Pittsburgh: We went to Nicky's Thai on Friday and I hadn't had it in a while. Their pad see ew is my go-to and so delicious!
Have you all seen the new food truck,
Ippa? I want to try it! It's located in Lawrenceville.
Amazon Rec: My sister carried this bag at the wedding we went to this weekend, and I assumed it was a vintage Real Real find until she told me it was Amazon! Isn't it adorable?!
You can find more of my
Amazon favorites, here on my Amazon page where I am constantly updating it with all of my finds and top picks from home, beauty, fashion, and more!
Smelling: Loved this Citrus Herb Scent. The perfect light and fresh scent for summertime!
