Happy Saturday! It’s been a couple of months since I’ve done a favorites post, so today I thought I’d recap what I’ve been loving as the beginning of a new season emerges! It’s crazy to think that it’s already October. I’m bummed I didn’t get to post this at my usual time on Friday, but it’s been such a busy week that I just didn’t really have much time to sit at my computer to get it done! But here I am, a day later, and I hope you enjoy finding out some things that I’ve been loving these past couple of weeks.
Fashion
Athleta Joggers
I mentioned these in my recent tall haul, and they really are my go to joggers. They are so comfortable and lightweight, yet have a work pant like vibe to them, making them feel versatile. I did say in that haul that I wish they had a drawstring because the waistband does come down easily, but it’s nothing too problematic. I did get these in a tall size 8 and the length is perfect.
Athleta Leggings
Another thing that I picked up from Athleta was these Allyson Felix collab leggings. I love these leggings! They are so sleek and comfortable, and I feel very secure when I workout in these. They have become my number one favorite pair of black leggings, and I’m really wanting to get them in the other colors because they are so comfortable to workout in.
GLDN Bracelet
I’ve had this bracelet in my bookmarks for a while now, and I’m so happy I got it for my birthday! I’m usually not a big bracelet wearer because bracelets can get in the way and feel uncomfortable when you are trying to write and do other things. Even though I’m 5’11, I have tiny wrists, so bracelets never felt really secure on me. This bracelet came in different sizes, and I’m pretty sure I received the XS and it fits perfectly! It’s so lightweight that I don’t even feel it on my wrist, and I love the dainty look of it.
Jomboy Sweatshirt
I’ve mentioned Jomboy Media on my previous What I’ve Been Listening To post, and they’ve had this I Love Baseball that I have wanted ever since I first saw it! I’m a sucker for anything olive green, and I loved the look of this cropped sweatshirt. This was another birthday present, and I absolutely love it! It’s so soft and comfortable, and is totally me.
Lorna Jane Sports Bras
I’ve gotten a couple of Lorna Janes sports bras this year, and if I could spend all of my money to get all of their sports bras, I totally would. I’ve never had a sports bra feel as comfortable and as supportive as theirs. You honestly can’t even tell you are wearing a bra when you are wearing these they are that comfortable!
Entertainment
Sister, Sister
Once Sister, Sister was finally put on Netflix, I had to watch it. I loved that show growing up, and it’s crazy rewatching it all these years later. There is so much nostalgia when it comes to that show! It’s still funny, and I didn’t even realize how hilarious Lisa was until watching it all over again. I love having a show that’s only 20 minutes long, so you can easily squeeze in a couple of episodes whenever.
Troubled Blood by Robert Galbraith
I mentioned this book in my reading list a couple of weeks ago, and it definitely didn’t disappoint! If you are in need of a mystery series, I highly recommend Robert Galbraith’s Cormoran Strike series. This is the 5th book, and it was amazing! This book was massive, over 900 pages, and I couldn’t put the book down because I wanted to know what all was going to happen. I devoted my entire weekend last week to finishing this book, and it took some time, but I finally did!
Postseason Baseball
With fall comes one of my favorite parts of the baseball season, the playoffs. Every year my family and I do a family bracket for the playoffs, and it’s my job to keep track of points and who is in the lead. I’m not gonna say who I have winning it all in fear of jinxing it, but what a week for baseball! How about those Marlins beating the Cubs, and the Padres coming back to beat the Cardinals! The postseason is the best!!
Music
These past couple of weeks, I’ve had the same songs on rotation. I’ve been obsessed with:
- “Bodies”by The Knocks and MUNA
- “We Stayed Up All Night” by The Tourists
- “Something Has to Change” by The Japanese House
- “Close to You” by Alice Ivy
If you want to check out some new songs, I highly recommend these songs and artists. I can’t stop playing them they are so good! I would go into more detail and everything, but I’m planning on doing a music post soon J
Beauty
Origins Moisturizer
This is one of the things I picked up in a haul a couple of months ago, and it has become on of my favorites I can’t live without! I have oily skin, and this gel moisturizer has been perfect for me! It feels light and airy when you apply it, and it feels great on my skin. I don’t feel greasy at all. If I’m in a rush and just hopped out of the shower, I always make sure to apply this before putting on my makeup!
Wet N’ Wild Foundation
If you are in need of a cheap foundation, I highly recommend giving this Wet N’ Wild PhotoFocus Foundation a try. This is my second bottle, and this has been the only foundation I’ve been using the past couple of weeks. It’s easy to apply with the applicator, and it’s lightweight enough that you forget you are even wearing it. Did I mention it’s $3.89 at Ulta?
And those are all my current favorites from these past couple of months! It basically covered every category from fitness to makeup to entertainment, so hopefully you’ve found something that peaked your interest! Thanks for stopping by today, hope you all have an amazing rest of the weekend!
