Pick 6 - Spring 2014



Hello and Happy Summer! Hope you have a awesome time in at the pool, beach, water park, and in the sun BUT... Before we dive into Summer I would like to share some items that I've been loving on this Spring: 






Accessories - Watches. I've found a love for chronometer wrist devices. Nothing over the top like a Michael Kors (although, I wouldn't mind having one). Majority of my watch collection comes from Charming Charlies. They have nice watches and the options range from gaudy (ie: blinged out), to more simple styles (which I prefer).  Not to mention they cost no more than $25.00







Random - Food...Guacamole. A simple snack/meal from the gods. So easy to make and very refreshing. All you'll need is avocados, limes, cilantro, red onion, tomato, salt and pepper, and BAM! You have a meal. And yes, I said meal because I will eat this with chips and be satisfied.

Fashion - Liz Claiborne ankle pant. Purchased during a random sale at JCPenny, these ankle jeans are a light color denim that can be dressed up or down. I have been wearing these bad boys out on the weekends. They are stretch denim so they are comfortable throughout the day.







Beauty - Something New I've been trying out is the  Neutrogena Wave Sonic Power. I have had it now for about about 4 months. This device has detachable and disposable cleansing pads which makes it easy for clean up. I have not used it as religiously as I should be I notice that when I do commit to it my skin looks brighter and feels cleaner. When I REMEMBER to use it, I do so while in the shower for about 3-4 minutes.


Hair - Good ole' H2O... Your body and your hair thrives off of this. Now that we are experiencing much warmer weather I want to ensure that I keep my hair hydrated. I use an old Bath and Body Works fragrance bottle that has been thoroughly cleaned out to spritz my hair with water at the end of the day before going to bed. This bottle gives me just enough water where I do not feel like I have drenched my hair. After hydrating I lock in the moisture with oil, twist or braid it up, slap on my bonnet, and go to bed.


Skin - If you are not already aware... I am a fan of Shea Moisture products
(hair and body). I have discovered their Superfruit Complex line. Right now I am using the Sugar Scrub, Bath, Body and Massage Oil, and the Body Lotion. This product has a long lasting fragrance that is  Ahhhhh-mazing. I use the Sugar Scrub once a week and every night after jumping out of the shower, I moisturize with the Body Oil. The Body Lotion deserves just has much rave as the other products. I have it in a travel container that stays on my desk at work. The smell is so calming that I sometimes just put some in my hands, cover my face, and inhale (ooooooh yeeeaaaah!). I am loving this line and just purchased the Body Wash so I'm eager to use it (as if I do not already know what it smells like). I have only been able to find this line at Ulta in Cary which at the moment is running a buy one get on 50% off sale on Shea Moisture products...So yeah... Get some.
