Friday Favorites-Summer Edition

Happy Friday! Here are some of my favorites lately.

Some of my summer reading. Both of these books were recommended on TikTok and I took them on vacation with me.  They are both kind of mysterious without being too frightening.

I forget where I heard about this book but I enjoyed it. It's a light romance about a ghost writer who sees ghosts. I just finished this one.


Trust Your Gut (Mauve Nude Pink)
I tried a Maybelline Super Stay Ink Crayon Lipstick and I liked it so much, I got another color. They really do last!
 Break the Ceiling (RoseyPink)

My garden has been doing pretty well this year.  I planted some flower seeds in some pots and also in the vegetable garden and it's been fun to see them grow and bloom.

I've also enjoyed bringing in some bouquets from the garden.  Does anyone remember this old post Chalk Painted Mason Jars?

Shout out to my early readers if you're still with me!

I've been trying out overnight heatless curl methods. A robe belt is my preferred curling "instrument" but  I also purchased a different one that I like as well.


What to wear to a Christmas in July party.

We went to a fun Christmas In July Party. They really did up the theming and it was so cute!
These have been my summer nails. They are gel stickers but don't need a uv light to cure them.  (I found them at Target).

I saw this cute needlepoint at a local restaurant and I love it!

Summer Amazon Prime Purchases

My Amazon cart has been filling up lately.  Here are some of my summer Prime purchases.

We got these for a trip to Mexico(post coming soon). They were so easy to pack and take with us. They didn't take up much room in our bags either.
I also got these for the trip to hold our towels onto our lounge chairs.  Bonus-they were great for wrapping up the floats at the end of the day too.


I didn't end up needing this stick but it was perfect for travel and I'm sure we'll use it during buggy times.
I'm not very talented with applying false lashes but these little cluster lashes make it easier to apply. They come with adhesive on them so you just have to apply them under your natural lashes. They are 24 hour lashes but I've had them last a few days.
We also picked up these for our trip. They did keep my phone and cash dry in the pool.
We needed some new pillowcases so this set of two king sized ones were perfect.
I got these pillow covers to freshen up our sectional.

tank tops (white & hot pink)
I liked this tank so much, I got it in two colors.
sweater (beige)
I'd been looking for an open crochet sweater and this one fit the bill. It's a great summer weight.
I needed a remote for my new camera and I picked this one up on Prime day.

Have you gotten anything fun from Amazon lately?

{Shopping} Latest Costco Finds

It's been awhile since I've done a Costco post.  Here's what I've been finding recently.  

 I had been looking for these Reeses Dipped Animal Crackers ever since I saw someone post them on TikTok.  Score!  It's a huge bag so I'm keeping it in the freezer.
We get these ciabatta rolls pretty regularly. We also freeze half of the bag when we get home.
Mr. Click likes these bacon bits. The bag lots a long time (we also keep the extra in the freezer!). 
I've been on a salmon kick lately and my BS (Brilliant Sister) recommended the tzatziki sauce to go with them.  Yummy!
You might remember this set of body wash and scrubs that I was considering from my last Costco post and I did end up getting it. I'm loving it, especially the rose water and sea salt one.
I picked up these camo joggers, I needed a new pair.
They had my favorite  Pacific Trail work out shorts in stock so I got a pair of black ones.
I also picked up another rash guard because they were marked down to $4.
I also found these super soft joggers. I had seen there was a Vurori jogger dupe at Costco and these were the ones!  They are so comfy, lightweight and soft and perfect for traveling.  I ended up going back and returning the camo joggers and got two more pairs of these awesome joggers.
Here's a photo of the red joggers.

Thrifting Lately

I've been thrifting again and think I've been on a roll lately.
I was looking for some t-shirts for my walks and found quite a few!

I really like this Universal Thread striped tee, it's got such a retro Brady Bunch vibe to it.
I wore the Johnny Cash t-shirt when we went to see Mr. Click's band in this post.
On another thrifting trip I found a second Universal Thread striped t-shirt (also pictured above) and this gingham Old Navy romper.

Trying it on the dressing room first of course!
They were also selling some potted flowers for $1/each. This was in pretty sad shape when I got it but it has bounced back since I repotted it !
I also did an order with Thred Up  which is an online thrift store. Here's what I got:
1) a romper/cover up 2) a dress 3)Rag & Bone off the shoulder top 4) embroidered striped top.  I was pretty happy with my order. The dress is a little more winter-y than I expected but I'll wear it later in the year.
I found a few things (two dresses and a jumpsuit) that will be good for vacation on another thrifting trip.
This week I found a pink gingham Universal Thread top (I wore it to the Barbie movie..so good!), striped Madewell t-shirt, cute kitty t-shirt and some books (one for me and two for Mr. Click).
