Welcome back, fashionistas! February has come to an end…so you know what that means, time for February faves and to kiss the cold weather goodbye!
Beauty
- Purity Philosophy Facial Cleansing Gel & Eye Makeup Remover- Not only is it actually meant to remove makeup andclean your face, but it smells amazing! The scent of the product reminds me of the spa…so who wouldn’t want that? #pamper

- Miracle Worker Overnight Age-resetting & Anti-Wrinkle Moisturizer- After purchasing half of Ulta, I received a Philosophy gift bag featuring a mini anti-aging eye cream (which will last me a year). I haven’t used a specific anti-aging eye cream before so I don’t have much to compare it to. After applying, I noticed my skin feels tighter and still moisturized. It doesn’t irritate my skin or have a bad smell either. Do you guys use anti-aging products?
- My Curling Iron!!!- You guys, I got this thing my senior year of high school from Target, and it is still going strong! I recently bought a HotTools wand to have as a back up in case my current one decides to stop working, but seriously? This wand is amazing and it was so inexpensive! I got it to give myself loose waves for prom, and now it creates my everyday look! I curl my hair with so many different techniques and this wand works with all of them! And it’s pink…so when is that ever a bad thing?
- Lush Lip Scrub- Honestly, never would have thought of using a scrub for your lips, but once I purchased this product, it has become my new favorite. Not only is it a mini pampering session, but during the cold winter months, I feel like it rejuvenates my lips!

Fashion
- Patagonia Pullover- I typically dress nice for class, but some days, I am all about throwing on my new red Patagonia pullover and pearls. I feel like it is more dressy looking than a typical sweatshirt so I don’t feel as bum sitting in my business lectures, so don’t burst my bubble haha.

- Kendra Scott Danielle Earrings- Is it okay to wear them every day?

Health
- Yoga and Ab Attack classes- Hopping on the “New Year, New Me Working Out All The Time” bandwagon, but am loving these work out classes! Being a junior in college, I know I need to use this free gym membership to my advantage, and by doing so, I am taking fitness classes with some of my girls! I took Yoga my sophomore year and loved it, and would do youtube videos now and then, but I am glad to be back in a class! Yoga is amazing and helps me with my anxiety! And ab attack…gotta get that Spring Break bod! And who doesn’t love being sore and unable to walk for five days?
- Fruit Smoothies- YouTubber Caitlin Bea, or glamorista16, posted a smoothie video months ago, and I tried it out! I love smoothies and making them at home helps save me money! My go-to smoothie includes blueberries, bananas, chia seeds, Greek yogurt, ice, and maybe a few strawberries!

- Water- I’m finally working on cutting back on my Diet Coke or Dr Pepper intake and replacing it with water. (I didn’t say anything about cutting back on coffee…one step at a time?)
Random
- Um Gigi Hadid. Seriously she is flawless and American (woohoo, represent!) She has such a sweet and down to earth personality, and would be a great person to look up to for younger girls! And seriously, she is flawless.
- Starbucks Carmel Latte- Typically, my go-to is the Carmel Macchiato, however my bestie switched and now I’m hooked.
- My crock pot- I am experimenting with different recipes and seeing how my creations turn out! (My poor boyfriend is the test taster…so shout out to him for being the real MVP)
- The movie “How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days”- If you follow my Instagram, you know I watched this movie recently. It has always been a fave but I thought I would throw it in!
- My best friend Meg, boyfriend, and Mama- This month was so crazy and they were supportive every step of the way. Hehe love them & blessed they know how to/will put up with me! #collegestruggles
- Dance Moms- I am so so late on this, but this show sucked me in. Reminds me of the good 9 years of dance that I experienced, only I wish I was as good as these girls! #TeamChloe
Songs
- Best Mistake by Ariana Grande- Apologizes to the roommate who has heard that song on repeat 24/7.
- You’re So Vain by Carly Simon- If you know me, you know that this is “my song”. Couldn’t tell you why, but I could belt it out for ya! (Embarrassing, but don’t we all have a random song we love?)
That wraps up my favorites for the month! Comment below some of your February Faves and any products you tried this month!
