So as you know if you've seen my recent videos or you've been following me on
Instagram, I threw my neck out..actually twice last month but recently threw it
out for about a week and I spent a lot of time indoors and after about a week.
I was going stir-crazy so when I was invited to go hang out with my sister
and my sister's sister-in-law who I actually feel like it's kind of my
sister-in-law too and one of my childhood friends Aubree, I kind of
jumped at the chance. I love these girls! I'm just gonna bring you along for
everything in my day, my food, my drinks, the weather, my outfits, all that jazz.
Don't forget to give this video a thumbs up if you do like it. It lets me know
what videos you like and it also helps to grow our community so with that being
said let's hop right in!!
So of course the top of every day starts with some iced tea. I know I show this
all the time but I get so many comments from you guys like encouraging me I was
gonna say egging me on... that's not the right terminology.. encouraging me to keep
showing all of these little daily tasks because I think there is something so
beautiful in these repetitive daily tasks that bring you joy and if you
approach them with the right eyes you can really see them as a blessing and
something to look forward to each day. Also side note, I thought it was so funny
that the strainer was going like right over Shayna's head. So this is when Shayna
came to pick me up, I had to make my tea to bring on our little girls trip so I
did that while she patiently waited. Then we made our way oh I made her film
this outfit footage with me yes I'm moving my head like a robot because my
neck is recovering but I told her I'm like
'you look so cute! Please be in my video and let me show them your outfit'
Shayna has such a cute little bohemian
style and you know I want to be like Shayna when I grow up so and then on
this day I was wearing a beanie I didn't want to do makeup on the top half of my
face true story and I didn't want to do my hair so I wore a beanie
I wore my Always More Sherpa that I've been getting so many questions about I
will link that and then my comfy leggings and my Doc Martens which I am
obsessed with. I got them last year at Nordstrom Rack and I love them. There was
definitely little mini storms brewing when we left the house and I made Dan
get this footage of us driving away I feel like I'm probably yelling something rude.
I don't know (laughing)
{Music playing}
yes I did set my camera down to get this shot don't judge me
then Shayna and I happily walked in to our favorite restaurant right now in all
of Nashville..Bar Taco! Bar Taco is actually a chain here in like the south
and the East Coast and it is like I call it bougie Mexican food it is so good
Look how cute the girls are! Both of them are so cute honestly this whole little
crew they're just all like bohemian princesses. It's hard to decide my
favorite thing at bar taco but their tacos really are one of them which that
says a lot because a lot of Mexican food I'm mostly a fan of like the dips and
sometimes the tacos fall short especially because I eat vegetarian most
of the time the tacos at bar taco are absolutely incredible mouth-wateringly
good then Amanda pulled out her thieves hand sanitizer and we passed that around
to use to get rid of that Mexican smell that you love when you're eating but you
don't really want lingering afterwards. Oh and I purposefully had Amanda lift
her arm because I thought that her floral tattoo was so cool aesthetics yes
Amanda and so many of you guys comment about my roadkill jams necklace and
Amanda actually has I was gonna say she has one too
she has like five. Amanda pretty much started the obsession for everyone and
then yes there's Shayna and I posing on this fine afternoon.
{Music playing}
Then we decided to make our way over to the Green Hills Mall here in Nashville.
Just to kind of walk around while it was raining and I just didn't want to go
home yeah I was so excited to finally be out of the house!
Of course three bohemian princesses have to stop at
free people while they're at the mall.
{Music Playing}
So we just kind of looked around, tried a couple of things on. I did end up getting
this pair of green cargo pants that I thought would be so cool for spring
summer and even fall and they were like 60% off.
So after Free People Shayna
wanted to stop by Sephora to pick up some bronzer so we just kind of hung out
in the store, played around with some makeup and played around with their
little I don't know like digital makeup applier which you know no offense to all
of the makeup tech stuff but it's pretty funny (laughter)
and then Shayna ended up getting the hoola bronzer by benefit because it's
both of our favorite bronzers actually-fun fact. Oh and I saw this sign when I
was checking out and I actually had it in my purse. This brands lip balm has
been my favorite since I was like 15 and then we made our way to a store called
'altered state'. I had never heard of it and look at how cute the decor was!
I thought it was just very whimsical and sweet and the whole store was just full
of like fun kind of bohemian, kind of preppy and often like faith inspired
messages like things on pillows and signs and I thought that this sign was hilarious.
I'm feeling this so deep in my soul right now and I'm not even a parent yet. Soo.. (laughter)
{Music playing}
I tried on this top I debated getting it. Don't ask me why I rubbed my arm but I
decided not to. I actually bought a couple things online recently and I just
said "you know what Nikki? No! Self restraint"
{Music Playing}
Bye Shayna Bye! (Laughter)
So once I got home, you know I have to do a little welcome-home stretching and
hanging with Bowser and Zoe they always welcomed me home with so much enthusiasm
it just like makes me so happy and then I made my way upstairs to check
on my Tower Gardens. I actually worked on my Tower Gardens for a little bit this
day just kind of like cleaning off the edges and then after my body was
actually pretty sore this was like a big day out for me considering I had been in
bed for like a week so I decided to turn on the bath while Zoe hung out with me
and I took a late afternoon soak before I crawled into bed to kind of lay down
and let my back rest again.
Zoe is my little companion. She joins me everywhere. I decided to turn on my
diffuser and I filled it with a couple of drops of blue tansy, citrus fresh and lavender.
and then we pretty much just hung out, while yes you guessed it, I watched a
couple of episodes of Little House on the Prairie
By the way I've mentioned CBD so many times lately but I decided to drink this
orange elderflower CBD drink from GTS if you recognize the name GTS they make a
really popular line of kombucha that I love and then I was also using my CBD
Lux inhaler people ask me a lot about how I manage my pain and this is one of
the things that I do day to day.
I'm a big believer in higher dose vitamin C in
general at least for myself I'm not a doctor
but especially when I'm healing from things
now one nice thing is when I am stuck in bed or even if I'm not I just I love
staying in touch with people via voice messages. Do any of you guys do that with
your friends like send each other long voice messages in text form? I think it's
like such a fun alternative to actual conversation if someone's busy because
you can still tell full-on stories and really like go more into depth than text
messaging. Shout-out to you, Emily, for being one of my favorite voice messaging
partners so at this point I actually wasn't very hungry because I had so much
food at bar taco but I did want some snacks so I threw in some Alexia onion
rings into the oven and then once they were done cooking I threw a couple
things on the side some organic ketchup with some sriracha kind of dropped in
the middle and then some organic yellow mustard and then I pulled out a couple
of Grillo's pickles to go on the side as well.
Of course gotta round it out with
those blueberries. Health goals guys! Onion rings and blueberries I brought
down my CBD orange drink so I recycled that oh and once again look at that
washing my produce. I hope everyone is giving me a round of applause.
And that was my very odd snack dinner situation so that brings us to the end of this
video guys. Thank you so much for coming back to my channel and watching my
