2021 Spring Bucket List: The 5 activities you can’t miss
With this weekend marking the start of spring, I wanted to share a bucket list of fun activities to welcome in the new season!
In this post, I’m sharing the 5 activities you need to try.
Perspective: What are you missing?
I’ve been slowly making my way through ‘On Looking: A Walker’s Guide to the Art of Observation’ by Alexandra Horowitz and have been absolutely entranced by the idea of hidden worlds that most of us miss.
In this post, I’m diving into one simple way you can practice mindfulness while out for an ordinary walk.
It’s easy, I promise!
What I read: February 2021
February was a weird month for me. I feel like I hit a pandemic wall and struggled to find books that could keep my interest. I had two books I started but didn’t finish, which is highly unusual for me! I usually try to tough it out unless a book is really, really bad.
That said, I did still manage to read five books, including what might be one of my favorite fiction books for the entire year! (Yes, I know it’s only the beginning of March.. but I feel pretty strongly about this.)
Without further ado, let’s get to it.

After reading glowing reviews of the ESARORA Ice Roller, I knew I had to try it out for myself.

This not a product review you’ll want to miss!
February 2021: What I’m Into
It’s time for another round-up of my current obsessions!
This month the list includes a romantic Netflix series, a killer 10-minute ab workout, and a potentially life-changing audiobook.
QUESTION: What are you looking forward to?
After being inspired by Grace Atwood of The Stripe (who was inspired by Cupcakes and Cashmere), I wanted to pass this question along to all of you:
What are you looking forward to?
With all of the uncertainty and anxiety of the past year, it’s nice to pause a moment and just daydream about what’s to come. Good things. Fun things. New places. Adventures.
In this post, I’m sharing four things I’m looking forward to!
What I read: January 2021
January 2021 proved to be a big month of reading for me! Though to be fair, some of these were started in December, but took me a while to finish.
I felt like I had a really good mix of books this month, ranging from mythology to self-help to classics.
Here’s the list:
-Open Book by Jessica Simpson
-Pizza Girl by Jean Kyoung Frazier
-The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie
-Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man by Emmanuel Acho
-Daring Greatly by Brené Brown
-Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman
-Let’s Never Talk About This Again by Sara Faith Alterman
-Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens
Let’s dive in…
January 2021: What I’m into
Books, skincare, workouts.. oh my!
This week on the blog I’m sharing some of my favorite things that I’m into right now to start 2021. Let’s dive in.
BEAUTY REVIEW: Trader Joe’s Marula Facial Oil
It’s been a while since I’ve done a beauty review but after stumbling across Marula Facial Oil at Trader Joe’s, I knew I needed to share my thoughts!
In this post, I’m breaking down what marula oil is, how to use it, and why the oil sold by Trader Joe’s is such a bargain!
PRODUCT REVIEW: Bala Bangles wrist & ankle weights
If you follow anyone in the fitness world on Instagram, odds are you’ve seen Bala Bangles. The weights, which can be used on either your wrists or ankles, are cute, colorful, and super photographable.
But at $49 for the 1 lb set, Bala Bangles are on the pricier side of ankle and wrist weights. So.. that leads to the question..
Are Bala Bangles worth it?
