August Favorites

As always, August was a fast paced blur… but the days always seem so long. Here are my favorites from August… lots of reading and binge watching!

The Boy From The Woods by Harlan Coben – My brother and I always loved Harlan Coben books – his latest does not disappoint. A fast paced page turner always with some sarcasm peppered in.
R+ F Pore Cleaner – Okay, I miss facials. I didn’t get them a lot… 3 to 4 times a year. About once a season to really reset my skin… my face misses them too! So, I took a flier and tried this device. I am super impressed! I use it once a week and my skin looks and feels clearer, no long congested with Summer (thick sunscreen, salt, sweat etc)! I highly recommend if you too miss facials!
Ted Lasso on Apple TV – Light and funny, just what you need in a Summer show. Jason Sudeikis is hilarious as usual.
Athleta Shorts – I had bought a pair of these a few years back and live in them… time for a little camo version.
J.Crew Dress – I am obsessed with this print! So fun and cheerful… and it works now and also into fall with a jean jacket and sneakers!
The Sleepover on Netflix – If you are need of a kid’s movie this is a good one!
BuDhaGirl Bangles – I have definitely featured these before… but they really are a favorite! Especially in the Summer! All weather bangles go from the beach to out to cocktails!
Mott & Bow Tee – I received this a gift (Thank you, Mott & Bow!) and I love it! It is the perfect boxy tee, great with shorts, high waist leggings (below!) or easily paired with a long skirt as you are headed out to an outdoor dinner…
Hoka One One Sneakers – Okay… these are BIG sneakers… the word orthopedics comes to mind, but they are SO comfortable. Have made such a difference for aches and pains! Matt has them too!
Last Chance U on Netflix – We are a little late to this one, but it is so good. A docudrama were “Elite athletes with difficult pasts turn to junior college football for a last shot at turning their lives around and achieving their dreams.” Think Friday Night Lights but real and gritty.
Alo Leggings – I love the color of these leggings! So flattering. I got them locally at my favorite Barre Coast!
L’Oréal Hair Mask – By the end of the Summer my hair always feels a bit… destroyed. Sun, salt & water do a number on it every year. My stylist recommended this and it’s awesome! My hair feels so much softer and healthier!
Long Bright River by Liz Moore – I will admit, this one took me a little longer to get in to… it started a little slow. But stick with it, I stayed up well past midnight to finish this one!
Half Sister by Sadie Jones – Twisty page turner… always a favorite for a beach read.
