SUMMER ESSENTIALS & A MOTHER'S DAY GIVEAWAY

1 // 2 // 3 //

 

Hi guys! Today, I'm sharing a few of my summer essentials and picks for Mother's day (which is already this weekend! Eek!) with the help of Coupons.com. They have some great Mother's day deals including some from Sephora. All these items were chosen to help simplify my life, and could simplify my mom/your mom's life too! Oh, and did I mention I had a fun giveaway too? See my picks and details on the giveaway below!

1. Urban Decay Makeup Setting Spray- YOU NEED THIS. I've never used a setting spray until now, and now I don't know how I ever lived without it. My face tends to get pretty oily throughout the day, especially in the summer, and this spray helps with that. It's a lifesaver.

2. YSL Lipstick- I've been searching for a fun, bright colored lipstick for summer, and this one is perfect. I was worried about it being a little too purple, but the color is a little more subtle when you put it on. Cute, effortless and chic. What more can you ask for? The name of the color is Vivid Fuchsia.

3. Sephora Roll-On Gel- Lately, I've been breaking out like none other. Like, bad you guys. So I've been looking for any easy solution to help. This baby is the perfect little spot treatment for my zits! Put it on at night, your zit is gone in the morning. Just what I've been looking for!

 

Now onto the giveaway! Along with the $150 Sephora giftcard us bloggers are giving one of you, Coupons.com is also giving away some great prizes. You guys are definitely going to want to enter this one. Good luck! Have a wonderful day!

A "WEDDING"

^^ The most entertaining part of the wedding? I literally almost fell so hard on my face. You know that YouTube video with the model stumbling on the runway? Like over and over? Yeah, that was definitely me. It was quite hilarious.

^^ Cheers to the happy couple!

^^ And then came the after party with these crazies... Haha! How cute are they?!

 

Sorry for the picture overload! This weekend, my sister and her husband of 18 years renewed their vows. They had a beautiful "wedding" with family and close friends, and we had a blast. The love they have for each other just radiated throughout, and I'm so blessed to have that kind of example in my life. It was the perfect weather for a wedding, so we definitely lucked out! I kind of played the role of photographer/hairstylist/bridesmaid all day, but totally loved it. I did a cute braid in my sister's hair, curled my other sister's hair, and braided my nieces hair too! When I wasn't playing photographer, my wonderful hubby (of course) stepped in. He's used to that kinda stuff by now. ;) Honestly, it was fun to just hang out with my family all day long. It's rare for the whole family to be together all at once, so I'll take any excuse I can get to hug and kiss my nieces and nephews to death. Being an aunt is definitely one of my greatest blessings in life, and I never take time with them for granted!

 

Anyway, hope you all had a great weekend! Daylight Savings really messed things up for me. I couldn't sleep until like 2, then had to wake up at 7. It was so hard for me to wake up when it was still dark outside! So I feel like a complete zombie today. BUT! The season finale of The Bachelor is on tonight so I just cannot wait for that! It's gonna be good! Are you guys Team Nikki or Team Clare? I think it's going to be Nikki, although I really don't like either of them that much, haha. I'm also really hoping Andi will be the next Bachelorette! She's got the whole package. I guess we'll see what happens tonight! Can't wait! Have a great Monday!
