Tales of Lush - A Treat Yo-self Story

Intergalactic bath bomb

A funeral brought me to Cincinnati last month(let me preface that with "Hi! I've never been to a funeral before!"), and afterwards I found myself searching for something to comfort myself with. The Kenwood mall didn't quite do it, but buying some bath products from Lush gave me something to look forward to. Skipping the nitty gritty and getting straight to the point- the Intergalactic bath bomb was the bomb.com! That thing went right to work fizzing away and turned the tub into a sparkly galaxy. And holey moley did I smell amazing when I got out. It was quite the soothing experience I needed.

The cliche white girl with leg tattoo in the tub photo! Yay! Yes it's necissary!!

I also got Unicorn Horn which is a bubble bar. I've bought one before so you know it's tried and true beauty. It's a pink dream and it also left me smelling devine, but not as intensely as the bomb. Granted I also like the break my bubble bars into 2-3 chunks so I can get multiple uses.

In other words, if you're in need of some self-pampering, pick up some products and have a good soak. I also want to recommend Foxie Bombs if you would rather support a small business, which is the brainchild of Kayla, of Tennesse! (I just need instant gratification sometimes when I'm near the mall haha). Happy soaking!!

What I Wore - Vintage Wrap Skirt

"Mom, no."

Wasn't down to pose with me today lol.

Two bunnies hanging out :)

Shirt - Gap
Skirt - Thrifted
Shoes - Plato's Closet

Jacket - Thrifted
Ears - Petco and Thrifted

I was thrifting with my Mom a few weeks ago and came across this vintage wrap skirt and was obsessed! It's so beautiful. There was a stain on it but my talented Mom was able to remove it and now it's one of my favorite pieces in my closet!! I have a feeling I'm gonna wear it a lot this Spring. Also the cemetery is looking AMAZING right now, especially on gloomy days, the bright pink flowers against cloudy skies is a gorgeous contrast. I'm obsessed. Hope you all are enjoying the springy weather too!

 Blooper bonus - Nearly falling as I roll my ankle trying to walk on the lumpy ground in wedges.

Steve The Bunny - Easter Bonus!

Last Easter I was kind of obsessed with finding bunny ears for the dogs, but couldn't justify spending more than a few dollars on them. I ended up buying some after Easter, and finding a few more pairs at the thrift store a few months ago so I've been waiting for this moment for a while. Enjoy the cutest bunny dog in the entire world sitting in front of some lovely flowers around Woodland Cemetery :)

Blissful Bunny :)

Easter Nails!

Painted my nails while catching up on Teen Mom OG yesterday! I love Easter, it's spring, I like to wear dresses, candy... idk, I'm not celebrating religiously, I just like this time of year. Anyway, enjoy my nails here.

Crostini!

Came across this tasty treat on pinterest of course and had to give it a whirl. I feel like I baked my break a little too long, still getting the hang of my vintage oven's intensity, but otherwise this was DELICIOUS! I also found goat cheese with honey in it already so it was pretty effortless to make. Give it a whirl and make yourself some crostinis!

New Hair!

As you can see from the amount of root growth, I was over the blonde. It was fun while it lasted, but I was tired of frying it and wanted my normal color back... to a certain extent. I asked Anne for a recommendation for someone who could do what I had in mind. She said "Nicole!" from Salon Lofts, and then showed me her instagram to which I replied "Omg! I used to make her sushi!". Booking her three weeks in advance(because that was the soonest I could get in), the day finally came and I was so excited. Nicole was so nice and I had such a great time talking to her as she made my hair a masterpiece. I'm feeling super cute with my new do, check it out!

From that to this!

Progress shot hehe.

TAH-DAH! Magical.

Ah it feels good.

What I wore - Moody Mauve

Sweater - Thrifted
Hat - Urban Outfitters
Necklace - Altar'd State
Socks - Forever 21
Boots - Modcloth

Lipstick - NYX

A cold snap came mid March, and I just so happened to thrift a new sweater so I was alright with it. Whipped this outfit together around it, and trying to heal my chapped lips I coated them with matching lipstick so I couldn't pick at them. Wah-lah! Comfy and cute!
