#blackouttuesday I stand with you in respect and i

#blackouttuesday I stand with you in respect and in pushing for change. Black lives matter. Vote for impact/change. ✊🏻✊🏾✊🏿

It's with a heavy heart that I write this post, so

It's with a heavy heart that I write this post, so totally shook to the core on the total devastation currently affecting our country. My goal is to commit to break the silence, create the change. Click the #linkinbio for the full post along with tons of resources for education, great accounts to follow, and a full breakdown on how and why I’m taking action and driving change alongside you all. #BlackLivesMatter. We can be the change. ✊🏿✊🏽✊🏻
⠀
I am committed to figuring out just how I do this, and recognize it's not going to be a single change that will make a difference. As with everything, change is created after a series of actions occur. In this case, prior to the actions, I'm committed to educating myself. To finding and spreading the truth of why the change needs to occur. I have been spending time understanding just how we got here- What happened so many years ago and just last week, the history that shaped where we are today. Without understanding we can't fully commit to change.
⠀
"No one is born hating another person because of his skin, his background, or his religion. People learn to hate, and if they learn to hate, they can be taught to love. For love comes naturally to the human heart, where hate does not". I am committed to equality, inclusivity, and celebrating diversity. I will continue to speak my mind, and speak up for what I believe in. Beauty starts from within and change does too.
⠀
It is not ok to stay silent. It is not ok to watch others discriminate and to not stand up for those being discriminated against. If we are silent, if we blindly turn our eyes away, we are the problem. Unity by silence is not the way forward. We cannot be silent anymore.

I wasn’t sure if I should post this on my person

Happy Saturday babes! Found this fortune in my coo

Happy Saturday babes! Found this fortune in my cookie this week and have been thinking about it ever sense. In quarantine found myself wondering what’s next, with so much in limbo. Yes sometimes opportunities present themselves, clear as day, but more often than not (and esp in these times) you have to create the opportunity you want to appear.
⠀
Manifesting is such an important part of our journey toward whatever it may be that makes us happy. So spending some time today thinking of what opportunities I want to see arise, and how I’m going to take steps toward getting them to appear! ✨🔮🥠

Leopard sweats are the comfiest from @vicidolls and rug is from @zgallerie

With all our fave coffee shops still closed (@blue

With all our fave coffee shops still closed (@bluestonelane @lacolombecoffee @bluebottle ) we’ve had weeks of trial and error trying to perfect our morning cup of joe! ☕️ I think I’ve finally found it! We’ve tried toooons of different almond milks, oat milks, and creamers and have rounded up our top picks which passed the test in flavor and frothy(ness). Let us know if there’s another we NEED to try!
⠀
Best froth + taste:
@elmhurst1925 Hazelnut milk
⠀
Best taste (froths only top):
@califiafarms Almond Milk Creamer Hazelnut
@califafarms Oat Milk Creamer Hazelnut
⠀
Best froth (and versatility in the kitchen):
@almondbreeze Original Almond Milk (Unsweetened)

As you’ve seen in our stories, we’re obsessed

As you’ve seen in our stories, we’re obsessed with @americaneagle jeans. The Stretch Mom Jeans to be exact. We love both the curvy and the regular stretch moms and they’re on sale for 25 to 60% off now! 😍👖♥️
⠀
These jeans are the perfect fit for most everyone we’ve talked to. And we get asked about them A LOT. Not only are they totally affordable and come in multiple lengths for short and tall, but the fit is really what does it for us. They fit in the waist (high waisted), are loose enough in the legs, but still flattering unlike the majority of traditional boyfriend jeans, and the fit looks good on all booties. The stretch mom run TTS, but some size down for the curvy mom (I stayed the same in both!). ⠀

Reminiscing on this past trip to Australia and won

Reminiscing on this past trip to Australia and wondering when we’re going to be able to travel comfortably again- anyone else missing having travel plans and the excitement you feel when you’re looking forward to a big trip?! 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️ SAME! Until then, whether your traveling to your backyard pool or maybe taking a short road trip to the beach, thought we’d round up some of our fave beach coverups that won’t break the bank! (‘Cause when did swimwear get SO expensive!?!) Screenshot to shop via @liketoknow.it!

Over the weekend I was able to focus a little bit

Over the weekend I was able to focus a little bit on some self care and wanted to share FOUR easy things that I tried this weekend, and THEY WORKED.
⠀
A new combo mask/leave in treatment for hair, one of the best mascara dupes I’ve found for $5 from @essense_cosmetics that totally opens and brightens eyes and gives such incredible volume, 3 new serums I’ve been loving from @deciem The Ordinary @drjart, and lastly one of the most amazing hydrating masks I’ve tried from @youthtothepeople.
⠀
So here they are! Screenshot to shop this pic via @liketoknow.it and let me know if you have any questions on these products below! http://liketk.it/2PD9W
⠀
HAIR: OK, so you may have seen on stories, but I combined my @olaplex No.3 and @kerastase_official Resistance mask and left on for 4 hours. I washed with @olaplex and then tried the @olaplex No.6 leave in treatment and my hair has never felt healthier/silkier!
⠀
MAKEUP: I’ve heard the hype around the @essense_cosmetics Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara (which is gluten/cruelty free) and let me tell you, this stuff works. For $5 this is a great substitute and def one to have in your arsenal.
⠀
SKIN (SERUMS): I recently purchased 3 new serums- two are under $15 from @deciem The Ordinary and the other is from @drjart, all of which, I’ve been loving the results. First up, The Ordinary Matrixyl* 10% + HA (Matrixyl/peptide/hyaluronic acid work to reduce dynamic wrinkles and $11.50). Also, The Ordinary 100% Plant Derived Squalane (supports ongoing healthy hydration. This feels SO good on your skin). Lastly @drjart Peptidin Firming Serum (love using this in the morning. It’s ultra light and plumping!).
⠀
SKIN (MASKS): This @youthtothepeople mask has nearly 1,000, 5 star reviews and for a good reason! It brightens, hydrates, and plumps, and works to even skin tone/texture and promote elasticity. WIN WIN WIN!
