february 2017 monthly favorites.

{favorite makeup and skincare}

neutrogena ultra sheer sunscreen spf 70 – after my skin cancer scare that i’ve been dealing with for the past couple months, i have been more careful about wearing sunscreen all. the. time. i like this sunscreen because i can blend it into my moisturizer and it’s not greasy. it sits well under my makeup.

burts bees tinted lip balm in hibiscus – i like this balm because it’s been so dry here in west texas. i can’t wear lipstick and for sure not liquid lipstick. this lip balm is tinted just enough. this color is like my lip color but a little darker.

{favorite words}

{favorite books}

a thousand letters by staci hart – i have always loved jane austen. i think i first read pride and prejudice when i was 13 or so and then devoured all her books. the only one i didn’t like was emma. so this book is like a modern adaptation of my favorite after p&p, persuasion. (staci hart is one of my favorite authors lately. her wasted words series is great too.) from what i understand, this is the start of a new series so i hope the others are this good too!

{favorite tv shows & movies}

big little lies (HBO) – i loved this book. it’s one of my favorite thrillers. so i knew i had to see the miniseries. i’m ordering a month to month subscription to HBO until it’s over. the actors are doing a great job so far!

game of thrones – i’m a little late to this one. i just never cared about it. but since i have an HBO subscription to see big little lies, i figured i might as well take advantage of all the shows. listen, i am not into the supernatural crap. but the drama? everyone knows i love a little drama. it’s like medieval real housewives. jk. but it’s good! not my fave, but good.

GSP announced that he was coming out of retirement. 🙂

this was a sunrise on my way to school one morning. so pretty.

kat and i at the last stangetowne concert. a sad but still fun night!

i wish i was prepared for this… the last concert.

i found this pic when i was moving and saved it for my friend jess’s bday.

i’m proud i finished, but i’m not proud of what i’ve done since then. maybe i’ll just start it again???
