It's SUMMER

So since its almost OFFICIALLY summer, I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon and show you guys some of my favorite things I have accumulated that fit PERFECTLY with summer vibes... Well some of it does.

So numero uno most favorite thing is the new Becca and Jaclyn Hill collab! This face palette is TO DIE FOR! I have recently become a crazy obsessed make up junkie. I watch Youtube every single morning. I have my favorites, and watch all things make up as I eat my breakfast and sip on my Matcha. The palette is so pigmented and the highlight is on FLEEK! I paid a slight bit more than I should have to get it, but a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do for a flawless highlight, right?

2. )rganic matcha powder. I am obsessed! I feel so energized and focused throughout the hot days! I seriously can't stop drinking it! Thank you Kathleenlights! It tastes so refreshing and keeps me hydrated! Ugh I just can't.

3. Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette! I stalked Ulta for WEEKS to get my little hands on this palette! It smells and tastes like PEACHES! It's seriously amazing, the color collection in the palette is freaking amazing. All sorts of summery colors!

4. Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer... just let me say I could literally eat this bronzer because it smells like a pina colada. Like O.M.G! It is so buttery and glides right onto my skin and gives me a nice bronzed look. I LOVE it! It's super cheap and it smells amazing! If I could have just the smell all the time I'd be good with that too!

5. Baseball cap from The Paperdoll. On days when I am a lazy butt and don't want to wash my hair I put this on and go. I love to wear it to the gym, to the dog park, to work, just about everywhere. It saves me and keeps the sun off my face! If you haven't gotten one... you need to.

6. Aviators! They can be dressed up, or down. Seriously I found these at Rue 21 for 5.99 and they were having a sale where you buy one get a pair for 2$ so you know I jumped on that! I'm obsessed with all things gold, so these were a perfect addition!

7. Finally, my ABCTE binder and Rookie Teaching for Dummies book. First off, I know that homework isn't so "summer vibey" but I love learning about teaching! I am so excited to get into my classroom! The for dummies book is HILARIOUS and weirdly super helpful. The author really puts everything into perspective and doesn't sugar coat any of it. I ordered it on amazon for like .98 cents. and boy am I glad that I did cause I LOVE it!

So in connection to my last favorite, I have a bit of an update from my last post. I was hired in Blackfoot in the Chartered middle school and I was so excited about being able to teach there. However, I had a bit of an opportunity fall into my lap... A few weeks ago the teacher that inspired me to become and English teacher got ahold of me and told me that Pocatello High School had an opening and that she wanted me to come in and interview with her and the principal the next morning. So of course I totally did! I honestly was not expecting much because I am a brand new teacher, so I interviewed and Lisa, the principal, told me that she had to keep the position open and had to interview people that applied and if someone came along that was more qualified and experienced that she would have to give it to them. So of course I told myself I wasn't going to get it. Well a week later Lisa called me.... I GOT IT! So I have resigned from my position in Blackfoot and accepted the position at Pocatello High School as their new freshman English teacher!

I seriously cannot even explain how incredibly blessed I am to be able to have this opportunity! Mrs. Holzer will be my mentor and I am so excited to learn from her! I was not expecting this change, but I LOVE IT! It made my summer! Now I won't have to commute to Blackfoot, I can literally walk to work. I get to teach with my favorite teacher, and I get to educate kids in the same school that I was educated in! When they say Poky pride never dies, they don't lie.

So now that I have detoured from the original reason of this post I will circle around. All of my Summer faves will be around for far longer than just summer, but these items are staples in my life at the moment!

Until next time...
xoxo
