May Favorites | 2016

Hi lovely reader! Happy June!! It is time for summer to get into full swing and I don't know about you but I am ready. May was a pretty busy month, with school finishing up, exams, and then a trip to New York, I am ready for things to slow down a bit. I've got some new favorites to share with you and also some summer staples that I know I have mentioned in the past, everything from fashion to food, and even a guilty pleasure TV show or two!

Favorite Fashion Piece: Stylish Sneakers
These shoes are my absolute obsession for the month of May. If you have an Instagram or a Tumblr, you will have seen these Adidas Originals everywhere! I know for me, everyday I would get on social media I would see at least three posts where someone would have these minimalist loving monochrome obsessor's dream. I had wanted them for a while and when I got them the rush was fantastic because I had all the outfit ideas already planned out in my head. If you ask anyone who knows me, they know that I have a weakness for shoes, especially a cool pair of sneakers. I love being comfortable and still looking fab. 

As mentioned above, I love a good flat and for that matter a nice flatform as well. I always get lots of compliments when I where them and even more shock and awe when I say that I found them at Target....yes Target, and Target clearance for that matter. They can dress a look up or down depending on what they are paired with and who doesn't love a good sparkly shoe every now and then. It makes you feel like a kid again with the whimsy of it all!






Favorite Songs:
Dangerous Woman | Ariana Grande




fOoL fOr YoU | Zayn

Favorite Multi-Purpose Cosmetic Item: Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer
This moisturizer has worked out great for the summer so far. It has SPF 15 in it so if I know I am going to be outside, I make sure to put an even coat on my face and I have yet to get sunburnt while wearing it.


Favorite Guilty Pleasure TV Shows:
There Goes the Motherhood: Even though I am far far away from hopefully being a mother one day myself, I have gotten so into this show! I just find it super interesting to see how the different lifestyles of these ladies and their families. I also like it because it's not as "intense" as some of the other Bravo reality shows.























Rich Kids of Beverly Hills: Ok so this is polar opposite from the show above but I still freaking love it. I mentioned it in my June favorites last year and Season 2 is here with some new faces and the documentation of planning a wedding. Everyone on the show is so distinct and funny and yeah, guilty pleasure.


Favorite Apps:
PhotoWonder: It is a fantastic photo editing app






Snapchat (My two favorite filters are the flower crown and the star crown princess looking one, but the original one, not the one that gives you a beauty mark and makes your face look fuller)

Favorite Throwback: Disney Channel airing some of the 100 Disney Channel Original Movies
All the childhood throwbacks

What have been your favorites this month? Xx

"These are a few of my favorite things" | Favorites Tag

Hello lovely reader! As mentioned in previous "Tag Posts" I really do enjoy these questionnaire-esque journeys. As you can see from the title, this tag is all about favorites. This post could have involved me sitting around with seven children during a thunderstorm, but unfortunately I am not Julie Andrews. (heres the link if you now have the need to listen to that song or if you have no clue what I am referring to) So as Maria says, "These are a few of my favorite things!"

Favorite pet I ever had: Rosie, she's a Cairn Terrier (picture Toto from the Wizard of Oz, but a cream color)
Favorite car I’ve owned: Jeep 
Favorite meal out, ever: Now this needs to be more specific, are we talking fine dining or burgers and fries. I once was in Chicago and went to a place called "Harry Caray's" where I had the best burger in the entire world! I also really liked a line of restaurants in West Palm Beach called Carmine's, the food is insanely good.
Favorite food I’ve cooked: I once made a Meatball-Tortellini soup that I was quite proud of because to me it required "legitimate cooking", I made the meatballs, chopped the parsley, and diced some vegetables. It tasted great and was a complete success. 
Favorite food from childhood: My mom tells me that when I was younger I used to eat hot dogs a lot which probably explains why I'm not the biggest fan of them now. Chicken fingers were also a favorite.
Favorite movie of all time: Now this is not possible, I had a question like this in the last tag that I did. I have many but today let's go with the ever quotable "Mean Girls".
Favorite book of all time: Again a ridiculous question because I have so many. I adore "Audrey Hepburn, An Elegant Spirit" and I really love "The Fault In Our Stars". But then I like "#GIRLBOSS" too, so it's impossible to choose one.
Favorite item category to go shopping for with a girlfriend: clothes or makeup
Favorite day out – what, where, with whom: Going to Chicago once with my Mom was fun, we explored the city went shopping and ate at a cute little diner.
Favorite color: pastels (yes I'm aware that's a shade not a color), light pink or purple
Favorite artist: if we're talking singers, not possible to choose and if we're talking art artists than maybe Andy Warhol, if I'm honest I don't know much about artists but I did a report on Mr. Warhol once and really liked some of his pieces, he was also cool, so there's that.
Favorite song: Nope can't pick, my "let's get pumped up" or "get in a good mood" song at the moment is "Rather Be"
Favorite paid entertainment: Bruno Mars concert, nuff said
Favorite hobby activity that makes me get lost for hours: Blogging!
Favorite skill (past or current): my ability to visualize things, I'm also pretty good at golf, I can read people pretty well too (whether that's a good or a bad thing depends on the situation)
Favorite advice I’ve ever been given: "Successful people do the things that unsuccessful people don't" -My Dad
Favorite advice I’ve ever given: Be yourself, trust yourself, and do what makes you happy
Favorite year of the best birthday I ever had… and why: Let's see, my 8th birthday was pretty good, my friends and I went to this place where we got to dress up and had our hair and makeup done, we thought we were "the stuff" 
Favorite natural wonder I’ve ever seen: The ocean, its pretty amazing to just look at and reflect on
Favorite close call I’ve ever had: Can't really say I've had too many "close calls", sorry I'm not that rock & roll, yet 
My favorite flower – purchased: a set of roses that were the most beautiful shade or mute purple/pink I've ever seen
My favorite flower or plant – personally grown: I can't remember what they were called but they were purple and kind of fuzzy, I'm not much of a gardener
My favorite hair day ever? One year for prom I had my hair curled and I still look back at the pictures and wonder if I'll ever be able to master the flawlessness that my hair had that day
The most favorite gift I’ve ever gotten – what and from whom? A children's Juicy Couture purse, my parents gave it to me when I was like 13 and that was when I was starting to become more heavily interested in fashion, I thought it was the nicest thing ever and was so excited!
Favorite outdoor smell: flowers
Favorite Saturday night ever? This isn't specific because it has happened many times, but watching movies, playing Just Dance and singing random songs with friends is always a good time
My favorite non-relative adult growing up: Audrey Hepburn everyone else I looked up to weren't adults
Favorite TV rerun I could watch 50 times? Music specials on artists that I like
Favorite item no one knows I own? This blog?
Favorite competent activity I do? For the most part, artistic or diy projects, sketching too, and baking
Favorite food item I can never run out of? Cheese or eggs, mainly basic stuff because it's necessary to make most dishes! I also always like to have some type of treat for the times when the sweet tooth strikes!
The favorite picture I’ve ever taken? I like the pictures that I've taken when I'm on trips. I'm quite pleased with the ones in my photo diary that I shared with you last month. I also like the less "professional" ones too though that are on my Camera Roll on my phone just because they're full of memories.
Favorite secret I still safeguard? (don’t reveal it!) Well then what is the point of this question?

That was a lot more intense than I thought it would be! I hope you enjoyed it and if you give this tag a go feel free to leave a link in the comments! Xx
