Hi friends. I’ve missed this space. What turned into a blog refresh and back end update turned into an extended time away as I was locked out of my own site. Honestly, during this time I also contemplated if it was worth continuing on with the blog. It used to be such a priority for me and then over time became, well, less and less of a priority as other things and life took precedence.
However, I’ve always loved blogging. Although it’s still a “digital” activity, blogging has always felt like such a creative outlet for me. I’m hoping to share more updates here in the new year. More recipes, outfits, round-ups, and more as a way to keep things catalogued and documented in a space outside of social media.
A few recent finds and favorites for you…
1. This Oil Cleanser is about the closest I’ve found to Beautycounter’s Lipid Defense Cleansing Oil and it’s a good one! It’s SO gentle on the skin and works for both the skin and body. And super affordable, too!
2. These Running Shorts are my new favorite and going to be worn on repeat all summer long when the weather gets nice. They run a tad big but I still got my true size. They flatter like none other.
3. This half zip pullover. I don’t typically love dupes but this washes well and is SO soft and feels like Lulu for a fraction of the price. Fits TTS.
4. This moisturizer. Feels like a DREAM on the skin. Lightweight yet super hydrating.
5. These workouts. I’ve been wanting to switch things up so I’m doing this in the new year and looking forward to it! I’ve done a couple already and while the format is different than what I’m used to, it’s fun to have something feel fresh!
6. Working to eat more protein this year. I’ve been an easy way to prioritize health and wellness goals without overcomplicating things. I’m eating a gram of protein for every pound of (ideal) body weight. For me, that’s right around my current weight.
7. Reading through this Bible in a Year Plan again this year. I’m looking forward to prioritizing more intentionality in reading God’s word.
Looking forward to seeing more of you in this space in the new year, friends!
