Better Days Better Greens and Better Hormones | I have been drinking the Better Greens for a weeks now and find that I am craving them. They are a packet filled with a mix of greens and apple cider vinegar you pour into water and drink. I swear my energy and mood has improved since starting to drink these. side tip, they also help on days you have one too many glasses of wine if you know what I mean! I just got the Better Hormones and I am testing them today. NATALIE10 will save you 10% off.

Sea New York Blouse | a splurge but this blouse is so gorgeous and I know I will wear all throughout Fall.

Glass Mug | this looks just like Baccart. I ordered for my lemon water and hot tea at night, love that it has a lid that can double as a coaster.

Ella’s Seed Crackers | I ordered these off Amazon and I am completely obsessed with them. I ordered the 3 variety pack! They are so good with hummus, cottage cheese, avocado or alone!

Full Length Mirror | I ordered this full length mirror for Sterling’s room and for me to use for photos as well (haha) and it is so good. You can mount it or prop on its stand. Great quality for Amazon!

Colleen Rothschild Glycolic Peel Pads | I recently started using these again in the morning before I put on makeup and can tell such a difference in my skin already. The blend of Glycolic and Lactic Acids help target fine lines, hyperpigmentation and imperfections. Currently on sale 20% off.

I just finished Beach Read by Emily Henry and really loved it. It started a little slow for me but by the end I really loved it. Next up I am starting Selma Blair Mean Baby.

Blonde Files Podcast is my new favorite, I look forward to it every week. I love Airelle’s voice it is so soothing. I loved the episode with Tieghan Gerad from Half Baked Harvest, as well as the Glucose Goddess, and always love the solo Q&A’s.
