Monthly Favorites | September, 2020
In September, my favorites have ranged from timeless clothing pieces by Ralph Lauren, makeup from the new makeup brand: Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez, to classic early 2000s television shows like The West Wing and Gilmore Girls.
Fashion
Ralph Lauren Striped Cotton Sleep Shirt // Goodwill // There is something so classy about sleeping in this sleepshirt or even lounging around in it in the morning whilst getting ready with a mug of coffee. It all feels very tres chic, and like you should be living in Paris, London, or even New York City in a cool flat.
Vintage Ralph Lauren White Linen Blazer // Goodwill // I’ve been on a Ralph Lauren kick this month, which is honestly not shocking, as I go in phases with loving everything preppy and timeless. Random fact about me, my first designer purchase was a sweater dress from Ralph Lauren back in 2009. Anyways, I’ve been loving the oversized white blazer look, so when I stumbled across this blazer at Goodwill I knew I had to have it.
Lifestyle
Epson Salt Bath with Essential Oil Blend // Amazon // I was dabbling around with oil blends that are perfect for a soak in the tub after a long day at work, and my feet are just killing me. In a mason jar, I will mix 3-5 drops of Peppermint, 3-5 drops of Lavender, and 3-5 drops of Eucalyptus Radiata with about 2 cups of Epson salts. My muscles thanked me after soaking in a warm bath for about 30-45 minutes.
Starbucks Guatemala Casi Cielo Whole Beans // Starbucks // A yearly favorite Starbucks coffee bean. I’ve been having it every morning brewed in a coffee pot with cinnamon powder in the grounds. Perfection for those early fall mornings.
Beauty
Marc Jacobs Beauty O!Mega Bronzer Coconut Perfect Tan in Tan-Tastic! // Sephora // I happened to find this bronzer at TJ Maxx, and knew immediately that I had to test it out! I’ve become a huge bronzer junkie this year, so I’m always willing to test out a new bronzer especially if I think it might just work for my fair skin. This bronzer looks seemless on the skin, and gives that perfect summer bronzed look.
Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Liquid Touch Weightless Foundation in 150C // Sephora // This has quickly become my number one favorite foundation! It feels like you wearing nothing on the skin, in fact, I wore it one night to ulitmate frisbee and it lasted even when sweating from running all over the place. I didn’t mean to wear makeup while playing, but I completely forgot that I was wearing makeup when getting ready that evening, as it didn’t feel like I was wearing any makeup that day.
Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Liquid Touch Brightening Concealer in 140C // Sephora // A lightweight concealer that looks very natural on the skin. It is easy to layer if you need extra coverage, and sets well under powder. I’m a fan.
Entertainment
Beverly Hills, 90210 // CBS APP // I love the early 90s fashion featured on this show! It has really been inspiring me fashion-wise.
Gilmore Girls // Netflix // Come every fall, Gilmore Girls is one of my favorite background shows to put on when ever I’m cleaning, getting computer work done, or even just having a slow morning getting ready for the day. Are you team Dean, Logan, or Jess?
Fraiser // CBS App, Peacock App // A spin-off of the show, Cheers. It features Fraiser Crane and what happened after Cheers ended. This is my second time watching the show — it is one of those shows that is worth rewatching several times.
The West Wing // Netflix // I’ve heard about this show for years, but never got around to watching it till this month. I’m enjoying the cast, the sassy lines, and just the whole premise of the show. I do occasionally like watching a good political drama television show.
