April Faves | Fashion, Beauty & Home

Hi friend! Can you believe we’re in May already?!  I spent a good part of Sunday morning planning out the month, plus our summer calendar.  School will be out in 3 1/2 weeks!  Kindergarten graduation!  #somanyemotions

But first, Brian and I went to our annual school Gala on Friday and had a really good time.  Over the last couple of years, he’s gotten to know my friends better, but it’s always nice to mingle the men and women together.  Plus, he made the perfect, handsome date!

And, on Saturday, we had a long day of T-ball and my son’s track and field championship.  It was awesome to watch the boys and girls work so hard and put all their effort into it.

They took home first place overall and even set some records!  Huge shoutout to our coach who has mentored and poured into these kids.  We’ll be honoring him (and the other coaches) at the sports banquet this week.

1 • I’m definitely feeling this Pink One Shoulder top!  I wasn’t expecting the mixed media fabric- it’s a soft t-shirt body, but the one shoulder ruffle is a crisp cotton.  This will be so cute for a Spring date night! $18

3 • Two skirts from Target made the Top 10.  The first one is this Striped Skirt.  It’s incredibly well made and feels expensive, but it’s only $27! It’s fully lined with pockets and there are so many ways you can style it!  It also comes in solid colors.  On sale $23

4 • The second skirt is this Yellow Skirt.  It has a coordinating top if you want a monotone look, but I paired it with a smocked top I already had in my closet.  Such a pretty look for church, a baby shower, or even Mother’s day brunch.

5 • This Pearl Necklace is a steal at just $19, was $160!  Perfect for Mother’s Day!

6 • I always love this line of Target Pink Pajamas and this new style is too cute!  These jammies are soft and stretchy and fit perfectly with an adjustable drawstring waist.

7 • Y’all are crazy for white jeans this time of year and two styles topped the list.  First are these AG Straight Leg Jeans with a high waist, flattering cut and they’re nice and opaque.

1 • It seems we all loved this lightweight 3/4 sleeve top and I will be ordering more colors.  It’s just the type of top that’s perfect for indoors to keep you comfortable in the chilly AC.  It’s got a slight striped texture to it with a relaxed, functional button chest, but no collar.

2 • This fun One Shoulder Floral Top  was in my Tuesday Goodies. It’s so playful and fun and I love the combo of a bare shoulder with the 3/4 length puffy sleeve and slight ruffle at the shoulder.

5 • I’m so afraid of scratching expensive sunglasses, but have no trouble wearing these stylish, inexpensive Sunglasses daily. Since they’re inexpensive, I love that I don’t have to worry about losing or scratching them. I got the tortoise shell, but they have other options. $14

6 • This Necklace comes in three separate strands so you can wear them together, alone or layered with other pieces. $14

7 • These Stud Earrings are on the top sellers list every week! They are affordable and easy to wear, I usually wear them to the gym.  Mine are the 5mm size.

8 • My friend Marianna suggested I try this Pony Tail Cap and I am so glad I did. It allows you to have a high pony or bun while also the coverage of a hat. $15

9 • This V Neck Shift Dress has 48,000 positive reviews.  It’s a simple, pull over your head style with a modest v-neck and non-bodycon fit.  I liked the airy feel and can see wearing it a ton this Summer!

1 • I’m such a fan of this  Oribe Swept Up volumizing powder.  You sprinkle just a little of the power at your roots and it literally doubles the size of your hair!  No teasing necessary!

2 • This Scalp Scrub is great for cleansing your scalp while nourishing it.  I like to use this with the scrub brush to really get my hair clean and remove all the build up, oil and dry shampoo.  Your hair is left shiny and bouncy once all the gunk is gone.

3 & 4 • Y’all know my love of Colleen Rothschild products runs deep, and there are two products I credit for majorly reducing my hyperpigmentation.  In the morning, I apply the Vitamin C Serum and at night I use the Mandelic Acid Serum. Those two products in combination work to fade those dark spots.  SALE- save up to 50% off Mother’s Day gifts & 15% off everything else!

5 • I’ve been growing out my natural nails for a couple of months after repeatedly peeling off my shellac.  That bad habit had left my nails paper thin. But, as soon as I started using Hard as Hoof my nails started becoming stronger!  It works right away and a little goes a long way.  I use a few times a day and apply to my nails and cuticles, rubbing in.

6 • This T3 Hairdryer Brush was one of the most requested items for my recent Instagram giveaway!  It comes with a round brush and flat brush attachment so you can get full volume or sleek styles with one tool.

7 • If your feet need a little love for wearing sandals, use this all natural Pumice Stone in the shower to smooth any rough patches.

8 • I wear these Silk Scrunchies for workouts and when I wash my face.  They come in a subtle leopard print and don’t damage your hair.

9 • Where would we be without the miracle of dry shampoo?! I remember pouring baby powder into my hair in high school.  I love the Sol de Janeiro brand so much that I had to try their Brazilian Dry Shampoo and let me tell you, it’s amazing!  It absorbs all the greasiness from your hair, adds volume, and smells sexy!

10 • A Heat Protectant is a must if you are constantly styling your hair. This Hot Toddy spray is great for day 2 and beyond because you spray it onto your dry hair.  It’s lightweight smells amazing.

1 • Brian recently installed these Acrylic Necklace Hangers in my closet and I love how it turned out! They come with adhesive or mounting hardware and keep your necklaces in plain sight and tangle free.  I’m ordering more!

2 • This Turkish Throw is a new favorite blanket for Spring and Summer.  It’s well made and looks great on the back of a sofa, on the arm of a chair, at the end of your bed, or even in a basket.

3 • I like these Amber Glass Bottles so much that I have them in both my kitchen and half bathroom. Not only are they real glass, they come with their own minimal, waterproof labels.  I have the matte black pump in the kitchen and bronze in the bath.  The pumps work well too.  Nothing worse than buying pumps that don’t pump anything out!

4 • I’ve had these gorgeous faux Peonies for several years now and always bring them out in Spring.  This is just one bunch, see how full they are!

7 • I recently bought these small stainless steel containers with colorful silicone lids to use in Jordan’s lunch box. Lately she’s been liking  chicken nuggets with ketchup so these are fantastic.  Also great for your side of salad dressing.

8 • This Wood Tray is the perfect compliment to the amber glass soap bottles. They fit perfectly inside the tray.
