9.7 Friday Faves (and a giveaway)
Hi friends! I hope youโre having a wonderful weekend! Iโm popping in with a little belated Friday Faves this week. Some happy news: Maisey is 100% better! (I shared more about her mysterious jaw issue in this post) We saw enormous improvement by Monday, and thankfully, sheโs back to her ball-chasing, happy little self.
I talked to the vet about her fetch obsession and she said itโs actually good for her jaw, and could be part of the reason why she was able to restore function so quickly.
This week was a busy one and Iโm still trying to figure out how to do the club basketball + dance + homework + dinner scramble. It feels like each day is two full days: the work day, and then the after-school/evening *day*. If you have any favorite quick dinner recipes, please send them my way!! Iโve been making a lot of the same things lately and want to switch it up. Meal prep has been a gamechanger, too!
Iโm definitely looking forward to a chill weekend, a dinner with friends, a Sculpt Society workout, and catching up on work stuff.
Itโs time for the weekly Friday Faves party. This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, so please shout out something youโre loving in the comments section below.
9.7 Friday Faves (and a giveaway)
Fashion + beauty + random:
Iโd been looking for a new go-to everyday lipstick and decided to try Lawless, since it has cleaner ingredients. I LOVE it. It has a smooth texture and lasts for quite a while. The color I chose is Posey.
Oliveda has seen enormous growth in the past 18 months – itโs really exciting to see and be a part of it! If youโre interested in joining as an affiliate, here is my link!
Just got this Amazon set to wear when Iโm working at home and itโs super cute and comfy!
Read, watch, listen:
I canโt wait for this memoir.ย
Fitness, health, life, and good eats:
Weighted vest. Iโve been using this to add extra resistance to walks on my walking pad, or in the morning when Iโm out with Maisey. I went with the 8-lb weight, which has been a good starting weight. (I think 5-8lb is a good starting weight for women, and you can always build up from there.)
You need to try these collagen brownies.
