June Favorites + 4th of July Sales

Hey guys,

Happy Friday! So I’m going to keep it real with ya’ll, and try to keep it as transparent as possible. This past week after getting back from our trip I’ve been stressing myself out with trying to finish last-minute collaborations, while still providing quality content to you guys. Not to mention trying to get back in the swing of things with working out and being a mom. Well lets just say something had to give. This week was nothing but too many late nights, bad eating habits, and Netflix as my babysitter while I tried to get work done. It wasn’t the highlight reel you see on Instagram. So today I am keeping it real with this unedited video of my June Favorites. Because little do you know how many times I have to cut and edit out all the “likes” and “Umms” when I talk. If there is one thing I am working on, it is speaking more fluently on camera, and it has been a slow progress. This video will be a constant reminder to me that I am a work in progress, and that I am not perfect. So bear with me as I share my fashion, beauty, fitness, and lifestyle favorites with you in this unedited, unscripted twenty-minute June Favorites video. Plus don’t forget to check out my favorite 4th of July sales below!
