Vera Bradley Seashore Tote, J. Crew Chino Shorts, Sam Edelman Mirielle Sandal, The New York Regional Mormon Singles Halloween Dance Book, Juice Beauty CC Cream, Quinoa Salad
A few notes:
How cute is this Vera Bradley tote?! I walked in the store last week to get a gift for my mom and immediately fell in love with it. Perfect for summer/beach excursions!
This book was recommended to me a couple months ago and I just have to pass it along. The New York Regional Morman Singles Halloween Dance (yes, it’s a mouthful) is hilarious. The author is a Morman comedian and this book is her memoir about living in New York City and finding love. Morman or not, this book is a great read.
Apparently CC Cream is the new BB Cream. A sample of Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Repair CC Cream came in one of my birchboxes recently. It’s a good tinted moisturizer with SPF 30. I really enjoy tinted moisturizers because they are quick to apply and all the coverage I need for the day. This one is especially good at concealing compared to the Origins VitaZing that I have used for about a year. Plus, it has a great scent.
Finally, you’ve got to try this Quinoa Salad via A Touch of Zest. I made it last weekend and it was a hit. I’m definitely going to start experimenting with quinoa more! Try this salad. It’s delicious and beautiful with all of the fresh vegetables!
