so guys this is our last week in August
and that just completely blows my mind
but I'm really looking forward to
September and write in the comments what
you're really looking forward to in
September whether it's candles or
campfires or anything like more autumnal
okay so I would love to know that but
let's go ahead and get started on what
it is that in my August favorites one of
my favorite fragrance brands is Lala bow
there are several reasons for that I
just love the fact that every single
scent that they have is something that I
can wear and even that can wear or like
if he gets one that's more on the
cologne side I can steal it and put it
on myself so that's just been something
that Zach and I have both worn for like
over a year
he loves the vanilla one by the way if
you're looking for like a really good
one to get he loves that one and I love
to wear it too they have something
really cool going on through the month
of September so they let me try out some
of their fragrances from their City
exclusives line so labo has created
different fragrances for every city that
they have boutiques in and it's very
exclusive so if you go to a New York
City boutique you can only find ex
fragrance and so it's really special
during the month of September they
launched all 11 of their city exclusives
available online so you can buy any of
these right now so this is an example of
their discovery set they've picked out
their top 5 that they want to feature
and then inside it's just got these
little samples here
but you can try I brought these with me
on vacation I asked around to family I
asked around the friends I like it got
people's opinions on which ones that
they loved the most and the one that
really hit home with me the most is the
musk 25 that one is very like powdery
almost it's very clean smelling and
before asking anybody their opinion I
actually got the most feedback on
wearing this one like oh I love your
perfume what is it it stayed with me a
long time meaning after a couple hours
people could still smell it so that was
really cool Sola labo actually let me
choose which one was my favorite and
they sent me the full-size bot
at the 50 milliliter and so I went with
the musk because it was just so amazing
is definitely my favorite and it's the
Los Angeles fragrance so for size
reference this one is the 50 milliliter
and so that's 1.7 ounces so yeah I loved
it so much so a lot of you guys have
been writing me DMS and everything about
vegan options for bags and
simultaneously the brand Angela Roy
reached out to me because they have
vegan bags so I thought would be a
perfect chance for me to tell you guys
about him I was looking for a really
chic bag that was more like handheld and
I love like my crossbody I like my
functional ones but I wanted something
that would be a little bit more formal
for when I just really want a chic bag
they sent me this one they let me choose
which one I wanted and this one was
beautiful I love this like accordion
style I love that it's not too
overwhelming it's something that will
fit a lot of stuff in it but it's still
very small compared to my body frame
it's got a detachable strap so if I
really want it to be a crossbody bag I
can have it be but then it's also got
this beautiful like gold zipper on it
and then it's got technically like three
compartments and a couple little pockets
inside too so I've just been really
impressed with this and it's gonna be
great for when I have more formal events
or date nights or anything like that
plus when it arrived it came in this
really beautiful little bag so I'll
probably find a way to use this for
something like storing belts in it or
something like that I can totally do
that so I haven't gotten to feature
these nice couple of fashion pieces yet
because they just arrived like last week
I love the brand sue vain I just can't
ever find anything in my size very often
so when I found these ones I just had to
snag them the first one is a cami I
believe it's called the Sorel top and it
comes in different colors but I went
with a blush color that seemed to be the
best for like my skintone and what's in
my closet already and I think that this
will be really pretty to layer with it's
a little bit on the see-through side so
I definitely would wear my nippy's
they're like covers that are adhesive
and I can link those down below for you
guys too and then the other one is the
Kaycee jumper that is just really
beautiful I love the like muted pink
tones in it and it's actually got this
beautiful for lack of a better word it's
it's sparkly it's just got a really
beautiful like metallic thread
throughout the whole thing and I know
that this will be something that I can
wear it like Thanksgiving and like more
holiday type of festivals so yeah I
think it'll be really great for the next
few seasons and it has an open weave and
like a boatneck so really loving this
thing so much if you like this one
though you'll definitely have to check
on the website soon because I think
there's only like one size left in this
so this next beauty related item I just
have one to share with you guys today
which is this Mac makeup remover wipes
so I actually picked them up in the
Chicago Airport because I was on the way
to vacation and I knew I didn't have a
way to remove my makeup and it was like
a last minute thing so I was kind of in
a pinch it was kind of perfect because
even though we were just glamping I was
bringing some makeup with me and I knew
that it would just be a mess I asked the
girl at the make the mac makeup counter
like what do I do
and she was just so excited about these
and I was like okay I guess I'll get him
and so I was actually really happy with
how it worked there's 30 in a pack they
do come in a pack of 100 which saves you
a little bit more money if you really
like them so for like a month's worth of
these I spent like 12 bucks on them
they really did remove all of my makeup
and it also gave my face a sheen to it
like it seems to do a little bit of
exfoliating I think it says online it
has vitamin e in it so yeah that was
what the girl at the counter was just so
excited about is the fact that it just
made her face glow after it and it's
really good for my lips - I noticed so
yeah I wanted to share them with you
guys today because I was just super
happy with them and it was so accidental
it was just weird so another thing I
accidentally found on vacation were
these little sleep supplements they're
called good day chocolate this one is
their sleep supplement they actually
come in different ones like energy I
think there's a turmeric one basically
their MMS
if a dietary supplement in them so the
sleep ones have one milligram of
melatonin per piece and it's got this
little chart on the side that says how
much sleep do you need so if you want
like maybe enough then you get one or if
you want to be out like a light then you
take four of them so I bought these and
I used it all up so I actually bought
some more because I thought they were so
cute I can't say for sure if they really
knocked me out but I definitely was
extremely tired after I took them so if
nothing else they're really cute M&Ms do
your excuse to have before bedtime so
the next like dietary supplement that I
got that was really fun is just some
herbal tea I picked up I wanted one that
was a blend of spearmint and licorice
and so this one has that plus white
peony and green tea in it
I bought this off of Amazon and I was
super happy with just how it tasted I've
had one cup every single morning this
week it says that there's different
benefits that it has for your body with
it it says that it can help with things
like controlling your acne or like
facial hair or any sort of like extra
hair growth it also says that has like
digestive and immune health benefits to
which spearmint is just so good for like
if you have a little bit of an upset
stomach or anything it just calms things
down honest have peppermint or spearmint
so I'm not like a health expert by any
means but one thing that I was trying to
do in my own body is like lower
testosterone levels and there's some
supplements and food that you can have
that can adjust that and so this one has
the spearmint and licorice root that I
was looking for for that at the end of
the day it's just an amazing tea blend
that I get to have every single morning
and I like that it's a loose leaf tea it
feels like more of an experience making
my tea every morning also if you're not
like a loose leaf tea fan they also have
some tea bags so that's just really
great and more convenient so the next
couple of pieces are ones I've mentioned
in last week's video which I'll leave a
link for you guys to see they are really
good and I want to talk a little bit
more about like the technical side of
why I like them so first is the Kate
Nelson watch I've been wearing this
quite frequently like almost every day I
love the fact that there's like no
numbers on it at all it's very just a
minimal feel they stamped on the
indicators where the numbers go which is
super helpful
it also goes really well with all of my
other brass and gold jewelry I've been
learning a little bit more about like
what's cool about how it's a mechanical
watch that has more of an analogue
feature on it so it's not using a ton of
like power gadgets it's really just
something that's very like Swiss made
beautiful and that's the extent of my
knowledge about watches but this one has
been really beautiful to wear and next
you guys know how giddy I've been about
my imagery bracelets
I just love how dainty they are and
they're also made out of really high
quality products so like this one this
Spears bracelet is solid gold and then
this one is a yellow gold that has
sapphires on it which is the mini Lotus
bracelet and they're both adjustable
which has been such an amazing thing
because I have smaller wrists like
they're incredibly small and so it's
hard for me to find bracelets that will
fit and stay on or would not be like
awkwardly too long so this was really
great I think it'll be great too because
they are adjustable you could pass them
down it could be a family heirloom piece
I've been really excited to wear them
and it's just a very small detail that
adds a lot to my everyday look so that's
pretty much it for my August favorites
and let me know in the comments as well
what it is that is your favorite out of
these and I will see you guys on
Wednesday bye
