Whew, it's been a minute since I did a Monthly Favorites! Cayden and I have a set spending budget, so I really try not to buy unnecessary things a lot. But when I do buy something I love, I enjoy sharing them! This list is a mix of things I've loved for a while, as well as some newbies I had to share!
1. My sisters, mom, and I purchased
these Birkenstocks as a summer shoe. The best way I can describe them is to say that they are Croc material (definitely not the same look) with amazing arch support. I wanted them for the lake and pool as a simple shoe that I could throw on and wash off if they got dirty. Now I wear them around the house and while running errands because they are SOOOOO comfortable! I currently have the white pair, but I've got my eye on the
Khaki (olive green) because I love them so much!
2. I first heard of Makeup Revolution from my favorite beauty blogger,
The Beyouty Bureau. I was inspired to try new eyeshadow shades and colors, so I decided to give this
$7 pallet a try. I have the color "fever" and I'm in love! The shadow lasts all day and it's so fun to experiment with different looks. Plus it's $7, you can't beat that!!
3.
These jeans are in the running for my favorite pair of jeans ever. They are so comfortable and fit extremely well. I always struggle to find jeans that fit my waist, butt, and thighs properly, but these are pretty close to perfect. Who knew my body was meant for mom jeans?! ;) By the way, I never buy jeans from American Eagle at full price becasue they will ALWAYS have a sale.
4. I found
this tumbler at Walmart a couple months ago, and now it goes with me everywhere! It keeps water cold throughout the day and I love that it has a straw. It's super cheap and you can find it in multiple colors! Just make sure you clean that straw regularly!!!
5. If you follow me on
Instagram then you know how much I love making these
handmade paper prints. They are definitely my favorite Scripted Desire item at the moment. I love the raw and unique edges and texture of the paper. Plus there are endless possibilites...quotes, verses, lyrics, poems, whatever you want!
6. I have very dry skin, so it's easy for my complexioin to look dull. I started using this
Aveeno moisturizer during the winter (when my skin is the driest) and definitely noticed a difference in the brightness of my skin! I love Aveeno products because you can find them at drugstores for a reasonable price, but these seem to work better than other drugstore products.
7. Another month, another favorite earring from my sister,
Bear Cameron Design...who is surprised? I love these
simple leather earrings. I wear them with so many different outfits because they're so versatile. They are also lightweight which I love!
8. I make something from
Skinnytaste probably once a week because I love her healthy and tasty recipes. I've had
this cookbook for a while and have loved everything I've tried from it! The entire cookbook is full of crockpot meals or meals that can be made in 30 minutes or less. So perfect if you need healthy and delicious meals, but don't have a ton of time for cooking!
Let me know if you try any of these, or if you have any recommendations for ME! xox
