I have big plans for this blog in 2018.
no, this isn’t me spouting off all this nonsense that’s not going to happen. I even put together an editorial calendar…. whaaaat?!! being oh so prepared and ready to crush it this year!
i’m starting a new installment for each friday called the “friday five” – so original, right?!! (insert eyeroll here) so i’ll stop blabbering now and get down to it!
fave clothing buy
these thermals are SO good! mike and the boys got me one for my birthday and i’ve been living in it ever since. it goes with everything. you can wear it loose, knotted or with a front tuck and it comes in like a million colors now. its your perfect t-shirt + jeans topper! (i wear an XS in this one)
i also picked up this variation during yesterday’s snowstorm after one of my fave bloggers was raving about it. i’m hoping it doesn’t fit as snug as the pics online, so i sized up to a medium just in case.
fave beauty buy
last month during the VIB sale, i grabbed this primer after being not so impressed with mine lately and a beauty blogger i love highly recommended it. it does not disappoint!! my makeup stays put – even on my oily skin, goes on smooth and blurs my ginormous pores! i really like that you can also get a mini size so you’re not blowing the bank when giving it a try.
fave read
if you caught my last post, one of my 2018 habits is reading one chapter of a book every morning and i knocked out this read in just over a week! i really loved this book and its message for us gals who feel like way too much and not enough at the same time. it even inspired our “verse of the week” on my chalkboard wall! so if you’re looking for a new read, I highly recommend this one!
fave meal
when planning each week’s menu and ordering my groceries (if you haven’t tried out instacart yet, you are missing out on life!), i always head over to old faithful skinnytaste for some new and healthy recipes. as always, this was great and the whole family gobbled it up! i served it with some cilantro lime brown rice and green beans – SO so good!
