February Favorites 2016

Hello Internet friends! Once again, I have my monthly favorites for you. Is it ok that I start calling you my Internet friends? I want to have a catch phrase. You know, some bloggers use hello lovelies, and I wanted one of my own. I thought that I would start including a little monthly recap in each of my favorites posts, just to give you a look into what’s been going on in my life! You can find that below the picture before the favorites!

Monthly Recap

So, incase you don’t follow me on Twitter (which you totally should, BTW), I got an Instagram this month! I love Instagram, but I really didn’t want to link my personal one to my blog.

But, since Instagram updated their app and now you can seamlessly switch between accounts, there was nothing holding me back. I’m planning on using it to post behind the scenes stuff, hand-lettering stuff, and of course whatever else I want! If you leave your Insta down below, I’ll follow you! I also received some pretty awesome news last week. I applied to be an RM (which is an RA, but they just decided to be different and call it an RM) back in December, and I got the position! I’m so excited for the all the new inspiration I’m going to have for posts! Let me know what’s happened in your life this month! Now on to the favorites!

VACUUM CLEANER

Is this weird? I don’t know, but I’ve been loving this Dirt Devil Simpli Stik vacuum cleaner this month. The best part? It’s only $20. Let me tell you, that was the best $20 I’ve ever spent. I don’t like living in filth, and with two girls sharing a room, the amount of hair everywhere can get a little overwhelming (and gross to say the least). Because this thing is so light weight and powerful, it takes no effort to vacuum the dorm. And, the room has been so much cleaner because of it.

COFFEE MUGS

Coffee mugs. I may have a tiny obsession with them, but this one is beautiful and sarcastic. I love the teal blue shade and not to mention the quote “be nice.” I picked this up at Target on sale for around $3. Best spontaneous Target purchase ever. And personally, I don’t think anyone can have too many coffee mugs.

SPRING COLORED NAIL POLISH

Spring has sprung here in Columbia. Well trees started budding and flowers started blooming back in December when that warm spell hit, but the weather has been so nice here lately. And if you know anything about Columbia, SC (also deemed the armpit of the south), it’s always hot and humid. I’ve been really getting into the spring mood lately, and I’ve loved wearing bright pastel nail polish!

CINNAMON TEA

So in last month’s favorites, I posted about cinnamon tea. Well, I’ve found an even better one. This one is spicy and sweet, and it always satisfies my sweet tooth. I would drink 7 cups a day of this stuff if I could. I’ve only been able to find it at Wal-Mart. In fact, I love it so much that I made my mom buy some back home and ship it to me! This goes great in that coffee mug from Target, haha.

SALADS

Salads, salads, salads. I’ve been trying to eat healthier while being in college, and let me tell you, it’s so difficult. I started off the semester strong, going to the gym at least four times a week and eating really healthy. I’ve started to slack off as the stress has been piling on, plus I injured my foot so the gym is currently out of the picture for me. I strive to eat at least a salad a day. I love romaine lettuce with carrots, black olives, chick peas, mushrooms, chicken, and black olives. Plus I’ve switched from Ranch to Italian which is a much lighter option.

What have you been loving this month? I’d love to hear! Also, don’t forget to leave your Insta down below so I can follow you!
