Obsessed.

Summa time and the livin's easy!!! Whew this summer is flying by with plenty of beach days, paddle boarding and yoga!  It's been a while since I showcased a few of my favorite things so I figured I'd pick a couple things that I am LOVING this summer and let you in on my favs!  First off.....skin care!

Andalou Naturals Skin Care with a side of Trader Joe's.
I've been in the process of switching to more natural products throughout the house and this includes skin care products.  Andalou Naturals is a vegan, non-GMO brand carried by Whole Foods and it is perfect for my baby sensitive skin!!! The tall bottle on the left is the daily moisturizer, light, spf 18 and smells like roses....literally!  The horizontal bottle is the eye revive gel!  This gem rolls on smooth and rids your eyes of all the puffiness.  Their line also won't break the bank.  LOVE LOVE LOVE.
Now the last bottle is the Trader Joe's Antioxidant Facial Serum, full of vitamins, nutrients and a great skin toner! My skin instantly looks brighter after using this little baby at night

Important note:  It's super important to not over-product your skin, so I frequently take breaks from all products for a day or so and try to use only 1-2 products a day so my skin is not on overload!



Trader Joe's Coconut Oil & Coconut Body Butter
Hello smelling like vacation at all times!  I'm not a huge fan of cooking with coconut oil, well unless you want all of your food to taste coconutty (& hey do you), but I am a huge fan of using it on my skin!  I slather some of this oil on my elbows, heels, knees, face, wherever! before bed and you have an instant moisturizer!  I love using this when I'm taking a break from actual product.   Now as for the coconut body butter, yum!  This stuff is light to go on, smells like you are in the tropics, and is non-greasy.  Hell yea!!!  Plus the smell is an absolute boy magnet, Colin loves the smell of this one!
Bohemian Island Pants
I embrace my inner Princess Jasmine when I'm wearing these pants and am obsessed!!! These pants are the most comfy, lightest and cost effective (only $27!!!) pants I've bought in forever!! I actually just ordered another pair (elephant print yes!) and have shorts from the same company! They have super funky patterns and they benefit a dog rescue in Thailand.  I mean, hellooooo, does it get any better?

Side note:  be careful with washing they are super delicate!


Last but not least.....

Zella brand tank & CoolMax race hat
 I had been on a scavenger hunt for a perfect running hat and finally the hunt is over! This CoolMax race hat is the bomb dot com for sure! It's cool with great ventilation, and suctions to my head (comfortably of course) to keep the sweat from running down my face into my eyes.  Love the coral color and the price.....on sale at Athleta for $12.99.  That is what I'm talking about.

Now you guys know I love me some Nordstrom and their active brand, Zella, is great all around, but their running tanks can't be beat!  This tank was $8 on Hautelook, it's loose, breathable and super cute!  Can't beat it!  It also wicks the sweat so I am not overheating in this one!





Hope you guys love some of the products just as much as I do.  If you have a favorite thing, share with me! I am always up for trying new gear, food, and products!!!  HAPPY SUMMER!!
