12 of My Favorite Things Right Now You Need for Spring!

12 Of My Favorite Things Right Now you need for Spring! When I say “favorite things,” I know some people think that word gets used too frequently, and “How could everything be your Favorite?” Well…I Like to think of it as Favorite’s right NOW because our favorites change, and better things come along. We also have tried and true favorite things (more as our staple favorites), so see, although the “FAVORITE Things” term can get overused, it still does have different meanings. 

   With that said, Welcome to 12 of  MY Favorite Things right NOW, a series I will be doing monthly. Featuring ALL the things I am loving and using like crazy that I think you would like to know about. Think of it as your look into seasonal favorites, things that can make your life easier, pieces. You might wear the heck out of and that favorite product you might purchase over and over.

12 of My Favorite Things Right Now You Need for Spring!

 #1. Quilted Slide heels = This season’s must-have sandal goes with everything, and I seriously wear them multiple times a week. 

#2. Maggie Jeans= My all-time favorite jean right now. I have these in white, black, and regular denim. Yes, I have 3 pairs, that’s how good they are. I love them, so easy to style, can be dressed up or down. I have several outfit inspirations on my Instagram. This is a mom pair of jeans with so much style; your daughter will want to barrow!

#3. ShadeM Lipstick =Seriously the best lip stains, 18 different colors to choose from. It’s none drying and stays on all day.

#4. Gigi Pip =The perfect straw hat. I purchased this last year, and I was so glad it was back for this season. Perfect shape and looks good with every sundress, shorts outfits, and swimsuits. 

#5. Candle= I love candles year-round, and this one had the perfect Spring scent, Hibiscus Sangria, and the color is so pretty it will make a cute jar when the candle is burnt down. $14

#6. Tee shirt Maxi dress = This Tee shirt maxi dress with side ruffle detail is cute and comfy. I’ve been wearing it to death with my denim jacket and sandals. It is perfect for travel as it rolls up easily, easy to style, and is worn with so many shoe styles. I may have to purchase in another color. $44

#7. Tula Spray =You know I love Tula products, and I use many from their line, but this Spray is perfect to perk up after a long day. Great for setting your makeup, perfect for traveling (airplanes are so drying), and I love taking it poolside for a little cooldown. I have a bottle in my bag, in my beauty fridge, and my travel bag.

#8. Tula 24/7 = This Tula 24/7 moisturizer is a must for dry skin. I use this every morning on my face and neck, and it really helps keep my face moisturized all day long. I was so happy it came in the travel pack too. HERE

#9. Tarte = Tarte beauty products are newer to me, as people raved about a couple of products. I need to go check out their site, and when I found this Matte eye shadow compact, I was so excited. As you age, it’s important not to wear glitters as they can show wrinkles more. It’s tough to find a shadow pack that doesn’t have glitters in it. THIS one is completely MATTE. No glitter. LOVE LOVE. ( I did purchase several items from Tarte shared HERE for everything I purchased)

#10. Soma Bra= These are the only bra’s I will wear now. Comfortable, supportive & can be worn under teeshirts. If you haven’t tried a Soma Bra, you really need to. 

#11. Swimsuit= This One-piece, one-shoulder Swimsuit is a show stopper, easy to wear, and definitely splurge-worthy. I love that you can also wear this as a bodysuit with jeans and trousers. So cute.

#12. Maxi Dress = This Maxi dress is flattering on your shoulders; it looks pretty with a tan. It’s just the right amount of flow without too much fabric. It’s gorgeous for Summer events, vacations and perfects to wear all season long.

Old is New Again…. DIY DENIM Crop Top✔️ Ye Old is New Again….

DIY DENIM Crop Top✔️

Yes … you can wear a cropped top over 50✔️

Taking that outdated chambray denim top, and creating a on trend top is really easy.

⚠️You”ll need scissors, a denim top and measuring tape..

#1. Measure how much you want to cut off… (I had a seam to follow) 

#2. Button top up

#3.Make sure it’s completely flat and  laying straight 

#4. Cut both sides of shirts at same time

#5. Use edge of scissors and fray the edge of hem, but roughing up the edge 

#6. You can wash your shirt before styling for a more frayed edge, or wear at once✔️

Enjoy your NEW Shirt!

Life hack… well… tidy home hack… It takes j Life hack… well… tidy home hack…

It takes just as long to put a dish in the sink as it does to but it in the dishwasher!!!

WHY… do they always set it in the sink???

Please tell me it’s not just a #boymom issue😂 or a husband issue😂

All jokes aside… I hate dishes in the sink …. Who’s with me?

Do you go to bed with a clean kitchen? 

With the holidays upon us, if your entertaining and hosting family, sinks full of dishes can be a big issue…

One of my tips is always start the party or Holiday with a clean dishwasher…. And I personally wash all the pots/dishes as I am cooking.. which really helps with keeping up on having a clean sink…  which really does make it easier in the long run.
