reading: 'what should i do with my life?' by po bronson

ya know...i figured i had asked myself that question enough times, might as well check out the book right? it's actually incredibly interesting and no, it's not one of those quiz books where it tells you to be a teacher at the end. it's stories of peoples life journeys & how they got there - super interesting & i've enjoyed every word

anticipating: i turn 27 next month & am kind of super excited about it. age is a funny thing, i sort of freak out a little when i find a new wrinkle or grey hair, but ultimately 'the only constant is change' right, might as well embrace the change that is our bodies & souls

feeling thankful for: my girlfriends. i seriously love them so freaking much it's not even funny. we had such a great day at the cottage while the boys were golfing last weekend...and last night we had an awesome dance party at a small wine bar in town...the best.

working on: new black&bronze pieces. trying to find time to fit in a little photo shoot/editing session but that probably won't happen for another couple of weeks

loving: this is going to sound narcissistic but my hair. i've been having awesome hair days lately & that my friends is an awesome feeling. i've discovered that after 27 years my hair likes to be air dried, braided & then let loose! 

wanting: a new tattoo! i'm working on a new piece & am going to have a different artist do it than my usual (a girl!) and am getting really excited for it (sorry mum & dad!)

also. today i got to hold my friends 3 week old baby & my heart melted. babies are so amazing, aren't they? (everytime i start this conversation i feel like a stoner) but seriously, there's something SO magical about making a human...whaaaat? it blows my mind when i think about it. babies are pure magic...and a little bit of sex. okay, i'm tired...i'm out.

this weekend a bunch of us headed up to megs cottage for the long weekend. sitting around the fire i counted 22 people, 22 of the best pals a girl could ask for - all in one spot. 

these are my friends. that is my boyfriend. yep, the one with his pants down #duh

my catch phrase of the weekend: hashtag duh...using the word 'hashtag' in real life is really funny....to me...

truth: my friends are babes.

such a great weekend with amazing friends. it makes me so excited for summer; i want 100 more of these days!

i have a few days off in a row next week so i am planning to head up to my cottage for some R&R and boy am i excited!! it's almost june you guys & that is really exciting!! i'm excited for this summer as there always seems to be something going on, my schedule already seems pretty full for summer & it's barely started! plus i turn 27 on june 13th & i'm kind of exciting. getting older doesn't scare me, it makes me excited to see what's in store!

clean living: the gnarly whale

it seemed like you guys appreciated the last post about natural products i have found/love, so here's more yummy all natural products i've found!

i was originally drawn to the gnarly whale because i really liked their simple black & white branding (i'm a sucker for that stuff) i then read the scents & ingredients & thought they sounded delicious! the price was right so i made my first purchase. the hair detangler came in a great little hemp bag & they included a cute note/coupon code for my next purchase (such a smart idea for etsy sellers to keep customers coming back) but i would have anyway as their products are great!

oh you love creamsicles? ya, who doesn't?! this lip balm smells so so sooo good! & the best part is i'm not licking any harsh chemicals off my lips. i haven't switched over all of my makeup yet, but the lip balms & lipsticks had me the most worried as it can be ingested.

since i started lightening my hair i've had to use a hair detangler every time i wash my hair. this one works great & smells amazing!! i use it even if my hair isn't tangly...which truthfully doesn't happen very often anymore.

the gnarly whale currently has a coupon code for free product in their shop announcement so it's a great time to order some goodies!



side note: i do not have any affiliations with this shop, i just really love their products & wanted to share with you!
