5.9 Friday Faves

Hi friends! Happy Friday! Whatโ€™s going on this weekend? Liv has her last dance convention of the year, P has a couple of basketball games, and weโ€™re getting ready for our European adventures. I.canโ€™t.even.wait.

I feel like Iโ€™ve been majorly slacking on everything and my goal is to record a bunch of podcast interviews before we head out and kind of get my life together. I feel like this year weโ€™ve had to roll with the punches with school stuff and everything has felt even more chaotic than usual. Iโ€™m definitely ready for a reset.

Iโ€™d love to hear what you have going on this weekend! Any fun plans this summer that youโ€™re looking forward to? I also hope that my friends who are celebrating Motherโ€™s Day have a beautiful weekend.

5.9 Friday Faves

Fashion + beauty + random:

April faves! Itโ€™s always fun to go back through analytics and see what products you loved the most that Iโ€™ve shared here on the blog and IG.

Here are the top picks from April – lots of them were from my Motherโ€™s Day gift guide.

Lumebox. So many of you took advantage of the Lumebox sale. The good news is that you can still use FITNESSISTA here for $260 off! I use it every day and am obsessed with it. Iโ€™ve been using it this week on my scar – I had a mole removed from my chin last week – and also on my neck when I woke up Tuesday and couldnโ€™t move it.

The most gorgeous Le Creuset.

Stained glass flowers. LOVE these for a Motherโ€™s Day gift.

Custom photo op on concrete.

This candle makes me lol.

My go-to 90s jeans.

The best clean self tanner. Iโ€™ve used this for years.

Souper Cubes. These are so convenient and I love using them for Mazerโ€™s homemade dog food!

This gorgeous pleated dress. I wore a version of this dress to a Bar Mitzvah and loved it so much I wore a different color variation to a wedding. It fits perfectly and is super flattering.

This is a top product every month for a good reason. I use this on every single pair of shoes that comes into our house to help keep them white and clean.

Classic Birks for spring/summer.

My fave eye primer that works really well for sensitive eyes.

Goodies from my friends at HigherDOSE. They sent the most amazing Motherโ€™s Day care package including the Serotonin soak, oxytocin oil, dry brush, a gorgeous candle, and a hoodie. Theyโ€™re having a flash sale this weekend if you decide to treat yourself!

The perfect pour over coffee maker. I use this with my decaf Danger Coffee every morning.

The only travel pillow for me.

This tinted lip oil. It gives the perfect amount of color and shine and lasts quite a while, too.

The best summer shorts are on sale with the code ANTHRO20.

Read, watch, listen:

Iโ€™m FINALLY almost finished withย Younger but have no clue what to watch next!! Maybe Iโ€™ll finish it just in time forย Bridgerton to return ๐Ÿ˜‰ Have you watched any amazing series or movies lately?

Tips on savoring the present moment.

Fitness, health, and good eats:

Got to take a Lagree class last weekend at Burn in Phoenix and it was everrryyyyything.

New GLP-1 Tone from EquiLife! I know theyโ€™ve been working hard on this behind the scenes and itโ€™s finally here. Iโ€™m pumped about any natural alternatives that can help support GLP-1 production in the body and canโ€™t wait to give this a try after our trip. I shared more with my thoughts on GLP-1 agonists in IG stories if youโ€™d like to check it out (Iโ€™ll also make it a highlight).

20 dinner ideas.

Sardine melts on repeat over here.

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today! Have an amazing weekend and Iโ€™ll see ya soon!

xoxo

Gina
