Earlier this month, I had the absolute privilege to attend the Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit. It is no exaggeration when I tell you I was moved to tears multiple times as the projection and music played. There is something to be said about the magic you feel watching your favorite artist's works come to life in such a new and large way.
In August, Michelle from Mash-Elle was my featured blogger. You can read that post and see other past featured blogs under the "blog of the month" label! Being my blog of the month gets you a designated blog post, a sidebar button, and a mention
on my Twitter account. The sidebar button stays up all month long. I don't believe in necessarily making bloggers pay for advertising and I'd much rather show you blogs that I really enjoy reading. And I hope you end up enjoying them too!
August slipped away into a moment in time. Like I wasn't going to quote Taylor Swift! September is here and my favorite time of the year is just around the corner - autumn and the holiday season. Have I already opened my pumpkin coffee syrup? You bet I have! With the weather being below 80F here today, it feels like the perfect way to welcome September.
It doesn't hurt that it's a holiday weekend here. My husband's workplace decided to tack on an extra day off for Labor Day, so we have a nice long weekend to look forward to. He doesn't know it yet, but he's about to be climbing into storage to grab our fall decor. 😂 I wanted to drop in with my favorites post, before we start our time off! As always, feel free to let me know in the comments if we have any of these in common or what you've been loving the last month.
I did not plan to have three haul posts right after one another, but today is Tarte's Friends and Family sale. I wanted to get up my latest Tarte haul in case something interested you! You can save 35% if you join their rewards membership (referral link) and 30% if you check out as a guest. Free shipping on Canadian orders over $50. I recommend the membership, because you can earn points and you get a free birthday reward. The gifts are nice and don't take a ridiculous amount to get some of the nicer ones. Not only that, but you can get points from reviewing products on the site, opening emails, clicking within emails, completing your profile, etc.
Here's what I recently bought! What's your favorite Tarte product? Let us all know in the comments!
I'm not one that finds joy in shopping in stores right now (don't ask me about my current online shopping habit 😅), as the pandemic continues. I cannot wait for the Canadian Bath & Body Works retail site to launch later this year! For now, I popped in for the first time since last year. I go to a further out location that does not get as much foot traffic and first thing in the morning on a weekday to avoid shopping with any crowd and to ease my mind. That helps my anxiety a great deal!
I wanted one of the Halloween candle holders, but no such luck! Everyone and their cousins pounced on them so quickly. Haha! I did take advantage of their soap and hand gel deals, because we are still going through these like crazy. I think my two most used phrases out of my mouth are now, "Do you have your mask?" and "Remember to wash your hands or use hand gel!". Here's what I picked up to get us through this fall!
