Hi friends! It's been way too long since my last post, and I don't like it! I've been adjusting to working night shift at my new job and it's definitely taken a toll on my life. I went from being tired a lot to literally wanting to sleep 24/7. I'm totally embracing being the Queen of Naps. Oh and tons of coffee. 

Anyways, I was thinking about what I wanted to share with you guys next and I thought I'd share some of my favorite purchases recently. I've been doing a lot of Target trips which always end up with a multitude of bad decisions. And I may have made a few purchases from Sephora lately. Oops. I'm telling you a little fairy cursed me as a baby. I can't be blamed. Hey, at least I can share my favorite things with you guys- so it's not all bad! 



1. Stainless Steel Water Bottle by Cheeky: I am obsessed with my new water bottle from Target! It's so cute and the size is perfect for my long shifts at the hospital. The best part is that it keeps your liquids cold for so long. I believe the claims are for 24 hours which I haven't personally tested but it has kept my water very cold for 12+ hours. They had different sizes to choose from + a bunch of cute designs!


2. Batiste Dry Shampoo: Ok- say it with me, DRY SHAMPOO IS LIFE! Like seriously I don't know what my life was like before this existed but I do know it was a whole lot greasier. If you're like me and can't go a day without washing your hair because you'll look like a greaseball than you need this dry shampoo in your life. It works great, is super affordable, and it comes in a lot of different scents. They also have tinted ones to match your hair so you don't end up with that white cast. Currently I've been loving drenching myself in the tropical one and pretending I'm sipping pina coladas on the beach. 


3. Invisibobble hair rings:  A sweet patient of mine actually gave this to me as a gift and it didn't take me long to fall in love with these. If you can get over the fact that they look like a telephone cord than you'll love these too. They don't leave as strong as a crease in your hair and they are super comfortable to wear. They don't tug on your hair and I find they work really well when trying to do a messy bun! They have different colors to match your hair & I think they look cute!


4. Sunglasses: I've been loving these large round sunglasses I got at this cute boutique in Geneva! They definitely give me hippie vibes and they add that extra pop to an outfit! And they were under $15 which I thought was a steal! 


5. YSL Volupte Tint-In-Oil: This little gem was love at first smell, I mean application. But seriously it smells like jolly ranchers! This is a nourishing lip oil that also leaves your lips with a tinted color. It is not a gloss but it leaves your lips looking very shiny! I got mine in the shade- I Rose You. It's the perfect your lips but better color and I love that it's mosturizing as well!


I hope you all enjoyed some of my favorite purchases! I provided links to all the items- you just have to click on the underlined words and it should take you to the site! And I'd love to know what you're current favorites are! 

 I can't believe summer is coming to an end soon- idk about you all but this girl is so ready for fall! Pumpkin Spice everything is in my future and I can't wait!!
