Hello you guys, Welcome back to another episode of the Hawkerel Energy Podcast.
0:17
I'm your host, Kaylie, and this is your weekly reminder that it's a
0:20
new day, a new week, a new mindset, and another day if
0:23
you become the howcrel energy you want to attract. Hello you guys, Happy
0:28
Tuesday, Welcome back to another episode. I hope you guys are enjoying your
0:34
week so far, and let's face it, I hope you guys are enjoying
0:38
your summer so far. We are already halfway through the summer, which is
0:43
crazy. I feel like it just started literally like three weeks ago, but
0:48
we are already halfway through July and already getting super close to August. So
0:54
yeah, make sure to get in as much as your bucket list as possible,
0:58
because, as I said, summer is coming to a close end,
1:03
and if there's things that we're on your bucket list that you haven't done,
1:06
this is your sign that you need to do it. I have been really
1:08
reflecting back on my vision board lately because I feel like there was a lot
1:12
of things that I wanted to do within the summer season of just things that
1:17
I wanted to accomplish and let me tell you, I've completed so much of
1:19
my vision board, which is so exciting, but a lot of it still
1:23
hasn't happened yet because of the wedding, So there's a lot of stuff regarding
1:27
the baucherette, the honeymoon, and since I'm in Europe the entire month,
1:32
I feel like there's just going to be so much fun things happening, and
1:34
I'm just so excited to see everything that I accomplish in August and just how
1:40
many fun things are happening, and I'm just so so excited to share everything
1:45
with you guys, And yeah, it's just going to be a very exciting
1:49
next few weeks. I feel like we are finally getting to a point at
1:53
our wedding planning where we officially kind of get to put it to the side
1:57
and focus more on just packing and any other little details that we have to
2:02
do in r End for the wedding, which is so great because I have
2:06
felt a little less stressed, and I think I mentioned that in the last
2:08
episode as well. I feel like we're finally making a lot of progress,
2:13
and of course I feel like the last few weeks before the wedding is always
2:15
chaotic, and don't get me wrong, it's been chaotic here, but I
2:19
feel like the big stuff has been dealt with and now we're just dealing with
2:23
like the little things. So I'm really happy about that. But anyways,
2:29
that's kind of been my life lately. Like I feel like I don't even
2:30
have like a life update to give you guys, because I feel like you
2:32
guys basically already know. It's been just wedding planning. Like nothing else in
2:38
my life has happened, to be honest, Like, I have been dedicating
2:40
all my energy and time towards this wedding. And I think that's pretty obvious,
2:46
and I think it's pretty realistic in terms of anyone who's planned a wedding
2:50
or anything like that. But it's just the reality. It's just wedding era.
2:53
And you know, again, very excited to be a wife and enjoy
2:58
our wedding and all that, but I'm also excited to get back into normal
3:01
routines and content and all that. So I'm really sorry if you guys are
3:05
over the wedding content. It is eventually going to come to an end.
3:08
But let's be excited for me, Okay, Let's let's have this fun moment
3:13
for me because you only have this era ones and I'm just yeah, beyond
3:16
excited to just finally see everything come to life that we've been planning for literally
3:21
a year and a half, which is crazy. So anyways, things are
3:24
about to get crazy and I'm just so so excited. But anyways, I
3:30
really wanted to talk about some summer ins and outs for the summer season because
3:34
I have been doing a lot of online shopping, and I've been trying to
3:38
be smart with my online shopping because there's certain ins and outs that I've started
3:43
to realize about beauty products or clothing or activities anything like that. So I
3:49
thought we could go through some of the summer ins and outs that I personally
3:52
think are happening this summer, and for anyone that is looking to go on
3:57
vacation or looking to to you know, elevate their fashion or their style or
4:02
upgrade their beauty products or anything like that, I feel like this episode is
4:06
perfect to listen to because you guys know, I'm all about knowing what is
4:11
in what is out. I'm all about staying on top of the trends,
4:15
and I feel like we haven't done an episode like this for this year.
4:17
So let's get into the summer ins and outs for this summer, all right.
4:21
First off, we're gonna talk about the ends, and we're gonna start
4:25
with clothing because I'm going on my honeymoon and I really wanted to obviously purchase
4:30
a few things for some dinners and all that, and to be fully transparent.
4:34
I'm also trying to be strategic with my purchasing because of the packing.
4:40
I am so stressed about packing for my wedding because there's so much to pack.
4:45
Wedding dress, other dresses for other events, stuff for my bachorette,
4:50
you know, outfits for my honeymoon. Just the list goes on little details
4:55
that you don't really think about, like heels and bags and accessories. So
4:59
I'm really trying to be strategic on what I purchase, and so personally,
5:02
for me, I've been really trying to just stick with dresses because I think
5:06
the reality is with our honeymoon, it's really all about relaxing. We're going
5:12
to be buy a beach, We're going to be buy a pool. You
5:14
know, the odd day we might go touring around the city. But again,
5:16
I can easily put together a casual fit with what I have throw on
5:20
a jean skirt, put a cute belt on, and a cute white tank
5:24
top. I'm good to go. Like, I don't need to buy a
5:26
daytime outfit for the trip, so I'm trying to be specific in terms of
5:30
what I'm purchasing. I did purchase a few bikinis and swim cover ups,
5:34
but I thought, I'm like, you know what, I can rewear that
5:36
for other parts of our honeymoon, Like I don't have to wear the bikini
5:40
once. I can wear the bikini twice throughout that trip, and then for
5:44
outfits at night, I'm trying to stick to dresses only, whether it's you
5:47
know, short, simple dresses or fun long dresses. I'm really just trying
5:53
to only buy dresses, not skirts, not tops, because I don't really
5:56
want to overpack those things. As I say that, I'd rather just do
6:00
more basic day outfits and bikinis and bikini cover ups and then dresses. So
6:06
it's going to be so hot in August for really anywhere that you are,
6:12
unless you're in Australia. I mean, that's winter for you guys, but
6:15
it is so hot in Europe and where we are in August. That why
6:18
am I bringing jeans? Like, I really don't think I need to bring
6:20
a pair of jeans. Let's be honest. Here, maybe a little jean
6:24
jacket in case it gets cold out. But the reality is is that I'm
6:28
not going to be wearing you know, two piece sets, like I just
6:30
rather just buy dresses. So I feel like summer dresses are very in because
6:35
you can, you know, make it casual, you can dress it up.
6:39
White dresses in general, I feel like white is obviously the most popular
6:43
color ever, And to be honest, I actually feel like I'm getting tired
6:46
of the color white. Does any bride like feel that way? I don't
6:48
know why. I feel like I've been shopping online for so many white dresses
6:51
for so many different occasions that I physically think I've seen every single white dress
6:57
on the internet. Like I'm not even over exaggerating, Like I feel like
7:00
I've seen every white dress. And I love white. Don't get me wrong,
7:02
you look tan. It's just like such a flattering color on everybody.
7:06
But I'm getting sick of it. But anyways, I think I just need
7:11
a break from white for a bit after my bridal era, and I'll get
7:14
back into it. But I just feel like I've seen so many white dresses
7:15
that it's overwhelming, But white dresses are in. Let's be honest. White
7:19
is always going to be in. Black is always going to be in Fun
7:23
colors though that have been super in or like yellow, baby pink, baby
7:26
blue, like anything bright and fun. Orange, I feel like is so
7:30
stunning, especially with a tan in the summertime. I just love love that
7:34
look. I also love cowboy boots lately. That's been like my favorite thing.
7:40
Pairing cowboy boots with you know, a maxi skirt and a cute tank
7:43
top, or cowboy boots with a cute little white summer dress, anything like
7:47
that. Red cowboy boots would be phenomenal. That is on my wish list
7:53
maybe for next summer, just because I don't even have an occasion to wear
7:56
these red cowboy boots too, but I have been manifest seeing red cowboy bo
8:01
I don't know why they speak to me, but I just want them so
8:03
badly. I think they're so freaking cute, even with like denim skirts or
8:05
denim jeans anything like that. I just feel like there's such a fun color
8:09
and such a fun shoe to accessorize. Another thing, that's really in is
8:13
anything related to I'm gonna say it, but it sounds weird. Mermaids like
8:18
seashell necklaces, starfish brooches that you can add to your dresses or your shoes,
8:24
starfish earrings, starfish necklaces like I have been seeing all over my pinterests.
8:31
Just anything related to beach vibes, like anything seashell related, like seashell
8:35
bags. You know, just anything that's related to the beach has been super,
8:41
super trendy and I went crazy on Etsy. Like guys, if you
8:46
are looking for affordable dupes to anything or just like unique pieces, so for
8:52
example, starfish, things like earrings, necklaces, any type of jewelry at
8:56
sea will be your best friend. It is literally the best place. I
9:01
get so much jewelry from there and accessories. I got a lot of like
9:03
clutches from there, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, rings, all that.
9:07
I got so much, and I can show you, guys, I'm going
9:09
to do like a honeymoon slash bridle haul on my TikTok and Instagram, just
9:15
some things that I purchase for my Europe trip. But I'm telling you right
9:18
now, you guys need a seashell necklace like game changer. It makes your
9:22
outfit look so much cuter, and it just gives off summer vibes like it
9:26
could be a simple white dress, add a seashell necklace golden like, it
9:31
looks ten times better just because you added those details. And I think that's
9:35
another thing that's really in is just over accessorizing. Add a lot of necklaces,
9:39
add a lot of bracelets, adding more jewelry onto your current basic dresses
9:43
or outfits, or going to elevate your look so much. I think that's
9:48
really something a lot of people don't talk about. Thick and chunky necklaces are
9:52
super in. Like over accessorizing simple outfits really elevates the look, and I
9:58
just feel like that's something that will all always be trending. And then another
10:01
thing is overdressing when you're going to the beach or going, you know,
10:05
anywhere on vacation. I have been really really obsessed with bikinis with swimsuit cover
10:11
ups. Like every bikini that I bought, I made sure there was a
10:13
matching swimsuit cover up with it. I know that sounds extra as hell,
10:16
but trust me, it makes you feel so much more put together when you
10:20
have a matching set, right, same thing with my workout sets. I
10:24
love to have a matching set. I find I look put together. I
10:26
find I just feel pretty. I don't know, So I thought with my
10:30
bikinis, if I just have a bikini, I want obviously something covering myself
10:33
up when I'm walking around or going to get lunch or anything like that.
10:37
So I made sure that I had, you know, a cute little white
10:39
sarong to go with my white bikini or a cute little mesh pink dress to
10:45
go with my pink bikini. Like I went crazy on the bikinis and cover
10:50
ups because I think it's such a cute way to put a cute outfit together.
10:54
And again, matching sets, I feel like, are just super super
10:56
cute. So overdressing to go to a beach or like that, I think
11:00
is also super trendy. Stripes. I feel like stripes have always been a
11:03
very popular thing, but stripe pants, striped tops, striped shorts, stripe
11:09
bedding like you name it, anything striped has been very very in I love
11:13
blue and white stripe lately, I think that's been a really nice thing to
11:18
pair with anything. I got these blue and white pants that I've gotten so
11:20
many messages about from Brandy and they are literally fifty dollars and they are the
11:26
cutest thing. I literally wear them all the time with like a white T
11:30
shirt or a white tank easy to bring to the beach. Again, I
11:33
could use that as like a beach cover up. They're just like a linen
11:35
pant that I am obsessed with, and again, super affordable, super cute,
11:39
and it just elevates the look. It's simple, but still makes it
11:43
look a bit more elevated with the stripes. I also got a lot of
11:46
cute striped tops for my vacation. Anything like that, I feel like,
11:50
Yeah, blue and white stripes are what's really speaking to me right now,
11:54
But black and white, yellow and white, red and white, anything like
11:56
that I think is super nice. Even the red and white checkered is super
12:01
cute. Like red and white checkered shorts with a white tank top would be
12:05
super cute. So yeah, anything with stripes or checkered even is really really
12:09
flattering for the summer season. Overdressing for any occasion. So same thing that
12:13
I talked about, when you're overdressing to go to the beach, let's overdress
12:16
for anything like going out for dinner, going to get copy, just feeling
12:22
cute, and just overly dressing up for certain occasions. I think makes you
12:26
feel pretty, it makes things more fun. I don't know. I just
12:31
feel like when I'm not put together, I'm in a mood, like is
12:35
anyone else like that? Like I feel like an ugly rat, Like I'm
12:37
like, what the frig Like, why do I look like this? But
12:41
when I put myself together, I'm like, Hey, whoa, this is
12:43
fun. I look good. I feel good. I want to leave the
12:46
house, I want to do things. Let's go out, Like I am
12:48
a different person. I don't know if anyone else is like that. But
12:50
when I actually put the effort in how I look, I will be in
12:54
a better mood and I will want to do things. So overdressing for any
12:58
occasion, if it's just going to get a coffee or going out for lunch
13:01
with a friend, trust me, just dress up a little bit and you'll
13:05
feel ten times better. Other things that are super in are thick, chunky
13:07
necklaces. I talked about this. These are some of the things they ordered
13:11
from Etsy, like the starfish necklace, the seashell necklace. I also ordered
13:15
like a tortoise necklace to pair with like a nice black dress. So anything
13:18
chunky for necklaces or bracelets, I feel like it's super In colorful bags,
13:24
I just ordered the most stunning pale yellow bag for my wedding and I'm so
13:30
excited not for my wedding day but within my wedding activities and yellow is so
13:35
in Like I freaking love yellow so much. I actually found out that yellow
13:39
is my color based on my color analysis and I just have been obsessed with
13:45
yellow ever since since then. So anyways, I got a cute little yellow
13:48
bag that I'm so excited. I actually think it's coming in today. I'm
13:52
like keeping an eye at the door to see any packages that are coming in
13:54
because I've been ordering so much for the wedding that packages just they don't stop.
13:58
They just keep coming, and it's like Christmas every time a new package
14:03
comes in, which is kind of fun. But anyways, I love colorful
14:05
bags, mini bags, crochet bags, like bringing them to the beach,
14:11
Like you could totally find more affordable crochet bags from like Zara or Etsy,
14:15
like anything like that. Just finding affordable options is so great. And then
14:20
when it comes to shoes. I feel like sandals, low kitten heels,
14:24
or just like a low flip flow up heel, you know what I'm talking
14:28
about. When the heels are like super little, I think they're just called
14:30
kitten heels. But I think anything like that for the summer is perfect.
14:33
We're all about comfort, and platform heels are actually super comfortable as well,
14:39
So comfort over glamour, I think is key. But we got to obviously
14:43
make the shoes somewhat good looking, right, Like we don't want to just
14:46
buy a random pair of crocs. Like I'm not gonna be wearing crocs to
14:50
Europe because they're comfortable. Anyways, I would never wear crocs. Zaxx beIN
14:52
in his croc era. He loves his crocs. I don't see it.
14:56
But I'm gonna just let him do his thing because he loves his crogs.
15:01
And I would never tell him not to buy anything like you do you hun,
15:05
I will give advice for his fashion for the trip. But anyways,
15:09
let's actually talk about men fashion for a second, because that I feel like,
15:11
sometimes dressing your man is hard because sometimes they're like no, Like I
15:18
don't want to trust you on that, Like I want to just you know,
15:20
wear my own outfits whatever. And of course I know the girlies want
15:24
their men to dress nice. Let's be honest. When you're out for a
15:26
nice dinner, you want to get a nice photo together, you don't want
15:30
him wearing like a skater boy T shirt, Like what the fuck is that?
15:31
Let's be honest, like that is out. You're not wearing that anymore.
15:35
I feel like I've gradually helped Zach with his fashion from like the start
15:39
of a relationship, and you know, Zara is usually his go to spot
15:45
because I feel like it's affordable, it's got a lot of basic options,
15:48
and I feel like guys like basic. Let's be honest, plain T shirt
15:52
with a pair of jeans is totally fine. A plain shirt with a pair
15:56
of linen pants that this is something that Zach, you know, didn't really
16:02
get. Like he was like, I don't know if I could do the
16:03
linen pants. I'm like, babe, trust me, linen pants are in.
16:07
You're gonna look amazing in them. Whatever. He buys them, he
16:10
comes home, he puts the outfit together and he's like, wow, I
16:12
love this outfit. I'm like, okay, so you should have just listened
16:17
to me from the beginning, I feel like a lot of boyfriends out there,
16:18
for you guys and husbands or something like that, I think you guys
16:21
can relate, but it's just like I feel like they have such a hard
16:23
time with what we pick. It's like, oh, no, I'm not
16:26
gonna they don't want to trust you. But then when they do trust you,
16:30
they're like, oh yeah, I actually like what you put together.
16:32
It's like, Okay, why just why did we even need to have this
16:34
conversation. You should have just bought it from the beginning. So anyways,
16:38
I also find there needs to be more fashion men influencers because I feel like
16:42
a lot of men don't show that side to them, and I feel like
16:45
it would help a lot of guys out because even for us girls, right,
16:48
like, I feel like finding other influencers who have good fashion like it
16:52
helps you figure out what you want to piece together, right Whereas I feel
16:56
like men, like if I go on TikTok and I search men fashion,
16:57
I feel like there's not a lot lot of men that do it, so
17:00
they need to be better at that because I don't know, I feel like
17:03
Zach would actually probably be influenced to buy something from a guy that you know
17:10
had good style. I don't know, that's just my opinion, but anyways,
17:12
I think for men fashion linen pants, linen shirts, anything linen is
17:17
super popular right now, Sandals and anything like that. Like I feel like
17:21
Zach bought a lot of linen things for Europe, which is a lot of
17:23
things that he can rewear as well so he doesn't have to overpack, which
17:27
is great. Another thing that's superan is anything that's raffia. What I mean
17:30
rafia. It is a type of material that is like in a beach bag,
17:34
you know that kind of like brown crinkly material, So beach bags,
17:38
beach totes, mini bags, raffia heels, raffia clutches, anything like that.
17:45
Very beachy, very in. And then the last thing, this is
17:48
not really clothing, but it's something that's in for the summer I find is
17:52
over accessorizing your nails, so like fruity nails or I've seen people do a
17:56
lot of like bows on their nails, Like just over decorating your nails I
18:00
think is so fun. I love the fruit nails right now. I think
18:03
Hayley Bieber was probably the one that started out Let's be honest, and I've
18:07
seen a few other people. I don't know if you guys follow Pooky.
18:11
She just posted fruit nails and I just love that look. I think it's
18:14
so cute. I've been dying to do it, but I have to stick
18:17
to bridle nails until the wedding. So maybe in September I'll do something Fall
18:21
related. But oh my god, I'm actually really excited for Fall. Is
18:23
anyone else excited for Fall? I love Fall so much. Anyways, I'm
18:26
going off track here, but fruity nails are super in and I think they're
18:30
so freaking cute. All right, let's get into activities now. You guys
18:34
know that I've been in my Miley Stewart summer. I feel like I need
18:40
to watch a Hannah Montana movie. I don't know why it's speaking to me.
18:42
I feel like I need to go watch it. Another movie that I
18:45
just watched recently with Miley Cyrus and it was the last song. Oh that
18:51
movie is so good. But anyways, I've been in my country girl era,
18:53
been wanting to go to Stampedes, country concerts, go to a field
18:57
to do a photo shoot. I don't know any I think country related has
19:00
just been something I've been wanting to do. Country music. I love Morgan
19:03
Wallin, I love Zach Bryan, Like, oh my god, I've been
19:07
listening to country music NonStop. So I don't know. I think country Girl
19:11
Summer is gonna stay for a while. I think it's very in right now.
19:15
I love the idea of like doing photoshoots with your friends, Like whether
19:19
you want to do it in a field, you know, overplanet, like
19:22
get your cowboy boots on, get a cowboy hat on, put on a
19:26
cute summer dress, go get photos in a field, like it's fun.
19:29
Go to a rant, try and get photos with a horse, Like I
19:32
think that is so fun and so cute if you're the kind of person that
19:34
loves to, you know, meet up with your friends and do photo shoots,
19:37
Like obviously I love to do that because a it's my job, but
19:40
be I find it's so fun to make a fun little date night out of
19:42
it, but also be able to capture those memories and moments, like whether
19:47
it's going to a beach and ordering pizza and doing like a sunrise swim or
19:52
a sunset swim and getting photos of just you know, fun little moments with
19:56
your friends. I think that is so freaking fun. Like that my vibe.
20:00
That is my vibe. I want to do that every single weekend.
20:03
Is order pizza, go watch the sunset, go in the water, get
20:07
cute photos like that to me, sounds like the perfect night. So overplanning
20:11
your ig photos is honestly so fun and an activity to do in the summer.
20:17
Another thing to do is hosting more parties. I've talked about this.
20:19
I'm actually hosting a backyard brunch in my parents' backyard this Sunday, which I'm
20:26
super excited about. We're doing a little backyard bacherette brunch because I want to
20:32
give all my girls the batcherette goodie bags that they're going to be using for
20:37
our bacherette. So I'm really excited about that. So we're doing that this
20:41
weekend. I'm doing a fun little setup, so I'm excited for you guys
20:45
to see that. So I'm going to be obviously filming all of that and
20:48
building the basket so you guys can see everything that I put into my girl's
20:52
bacherette goodie bags. What's so crazy? Actually, I haven't even told anyone
20:56
this, and I'll just tell you guys because the podcast always gets the inside
20:57
scoop. Victoria's is literally sponsoring the entire weekend. What the actual hell,
21:03
like what, I was shocked that they wanted to literally gift all my girls
21:10
everything, pj's bikinis, you name it, like what, I was shocked.
21:15
So literally, the whole weekend is just us like basically capturing moments for
21:21
Victoria's Secret, which is crazy to me, but very fun and very excited
21:25
about that. So yeah, you guys will see a lot of content around
21:27
that. So I'm really really excited to be doing that with Victoria's Secret,
21:32
and I'm literally shocked I didn't have that in store for my vision board,
21:37
but not complaining, Like, I feel so honored and so excited about such
21:41
an amazing milestone in my career to be able to work with Victoria's Secret and
21:47
have them essentially sponsor my batsurette, which is crazy to me. But anyways,
21:51
that is something that I haven't told anyone, So you guys got the
21:52
little scoop about that. So there's a lot of Victoria's Secret goodies in the
21:56
batch arette Goode bags, which is exciting when it comes to like planning your
22:00
ig photos or anything like that. I love film photos. I think they're
22:04
so nice. If you're someone that doesn't want to splurge on a film camera,
22:08
you need to download the Teza app. It is amazing. I think
22:12
it's six dollars a month. Five dollars a month. Maybe it's not that
22:17
much, but you can get photos that literally look like film photos. It
22:22
is amazing. Her filters are so good. She's an influencer that actually started
22:25
the app, and that's actually what I used to edit all my photos.
22:27
It's very subtle. You can adjust the filter, you can add little date
22:32
stamps to the photo if you really want to make it look like it was
22:36
taken off a digital camera or a film camera. But you can also get
22:40
really affordable digital cameras off the marketplace if you want to get something that's really
22:45
vintage and cute. The marketplace has a lot of great finds for that.
22:48
So yeah, anyways, when it comes to that, I think digital and
22:52
film cameras are super fun to do and use for photos in the summer.
22:57
Last topic when it comes two ends for the summer is beauty no mascara.
23:03
I talked about this in the beginning of this year. I have stuck to
23:07
that since now which is July, and I have been obsessed with no mascara,
23:11
Like ubsessed A. It's so much easier to take your makeup off at
23:17
night. I love not being able to rub my eyes to get mascara off.
23:19
It's been such a game changer. But I also feel like, over
23:22
time, I actually think I prefer my eyes and my face with no mascara,
23:27
Like I feel like I just look more natural, and I find like
23:32
natural looks super pretty. In my opinion. The only thing I do to
23:34
my lashes is curl them. I think actually a lash lift and tint would
23:38
be really nice. I feel like that would be a really subtle finish to
23:42
really complete that natural look on your face. So maybe I'll do that when
23:47
I get back from the wedding is try that out, because I feel like
23:48
that would really elevate my natural everyday makeup look. But yeah, I've been
23:53
loving the no mascara. I feel like it's a game changer. And obviously,
23:57
you guys know I love the sun kissed makeup look. So just access
24:02
the blush. Just putting blush all over your face I think is amazing.
24:06
Like I could use blush on my eyelids, my cheeks, my nose,
24:10
my lips, Like I just love pink tones on my face because I feel
24:12
like I look a little sun burnt, I look a little sun kiss I
24:15
feel just yeah, I feel good. And then lipstains. You guys have
24:21
seen the lipstains probably all over TikTok. Still have not tried it. I've
24:25
been wanting to try it, but it's obviously very in very trendy. I
24:27
love the fact of the lipstains that they don't smudge, like if you're eating
24:30
or drinking or anything like that. It does not come off like it is
24:33
stained on your lips. So that is something else I really want to try.
24:37
All right, let's quickly chat about some outs. I don't have too
24:40
many because I really like to focus on what's in versus what's out. But
24:44
some outs for clothing, just buying an outfit for every occasion. I'm a
24:48
victim to this, Like I do buy a lot, I will say,
24:52
and I'm working on it, and I will be honest. For this honeymoon,
24:56
I've been very strict, Like I'm like, I will be an outfit
24:57
repeater for this honeymoon because A I also don't want to pack up crapt and
25:02
outfits. So I'm trying to be smart. I'm trying to, Okay,
25:04
can I rewar this dress during the day and then oh, dress it up
25:08
by adding a lot of accessories to wear at night. So I'm trying to
25:11
be smart like that, where it's like, Okay, let's not buy an
25:15
outfit every single day for my Europe trip because I'm gone for twenty five days.
25:21
I am not buying twenty five outfits. That's absurd. So this is
25:23
a prime example as to why we need to be smart with our purchases and
25:30
rewar some things like I'm sure I'm going to bring some stuff that I bought
25:33
for my Mexico trip and my LA trip that I went on earlier this year.
25:37
I'm definitely going to bring stuff like that because I spend money on that
25:40
stuff. It was very nice, it was very flattering, Like I actually
25:42
loved those pieces, so I can style them in a different way, whether
25:47
it's you know, I have one dress that I know I could wear as
25:48
a swim cover up. You know, I could make another one for a
25:53
day outfit and just like dress it down instead of dress it up. So
25:56
it's definitely okay to repeat outfits for summer twenty twenty four. Let's be honest
26:02
here. I feel like we need to be better at our spending habits and
26:06
save our money and put it towards things that are actually more worth it,
26:10
like buying a house, buying a car, anything like that. So be
26:12
smart with your money and stop buying outfits for every occasion. I'm definitely taking
26:18
that into consideration for the honeymoon, as I said, and I feel like
26:21
I have been super super smart because obviously it's outfits. Like we can be
26:26
realistic here and rewar things for activities. Again, this is not really an
26:30
activity, but fomo. We're done feeling the fomo after seeing your friends go
26:36
out and you can't be there, like we're staying in more. Let's be
26:40
honest. It's okay to not go out all the time. It's okay to
26:44
say no to plans like we need to be okay with it. I actually
26:48
had a moment with my sister and she was talking about how disappointed she was
26:53
for not being able to do some things with her friends before our Europe trip
26:57
because she's like, Okay, I'm spending a lot of money on Europe.
27:00
I don't want to, you know, miss out on some things with my
27:03
friends before the trip. But at the same time, like they're paying a
27:06
lot of money to go to like a I think they were going to a
27:08
concert for the weekend like it was. It was a festival, And she
27:12
was like financially like, it doesn't make sense that I'd rather save that money
27:15
and use it in Europe. And I'm like, Okay, well, don't
27:18
have fomo because you're being smart by a saving your money to use towards a
27:22
big trip that your friends are not going on. And secondly, like why
27:26
are we having fomo from that you're making the decision of saying no because you're
27:30
making a better decision in the end for yourself because you're saving money and you're
27:33
being smart. So we just need to realize that you can still have fun
27:37
staying in. You can still really enjoy a self care night to yourself,
27:41
Like I'm all about having a night in with my face mask, watching my
27:48
favorite TV show, having a hot tea, having some chocolate and popcorn.
27:52
So I will just make a fun night in for myself here at the house.
27:56
So no more foma. We are okay with saying no to plans.
27:59
At the end of the day, you got to do what's best for you.
28:02
And if you don't want to go out to a bar with your friends,
28:03
you should be able to stay in and feel okay with that. Another
28:06
out is over drinking. You guys know, I've been in my sober summer
28:11
era. We do not need to be having alcohol all the time for any
28:15
occasion, Like, what is the point of that We can have mocktails.
28:18
We can still have fun drinks which will make you feel good. You don't
28:22
need to worry about your anxiety. You guys know that I was challenging myself
28:25
this month to really just focus on not having any alcohol, and I can
28:29
truly say that my anxiety has been so much better. If I am going
28:33
out, I'm usually ordering a mocktail. I've gone out twice actually and did
28:37
not have a sip of alcohol and just had mocktails and they were so good.
28:41
So I don't know, I think we need to be more realistic here
28:44
that we do not meet alcohol a to have fun, but also in general,
28:48
like again, you know me, I'm all about balance. I'm all
28:51
about like, if I want a glass of wine, I'll have a glass
28:52
of wine. But I really wanted to challenge myself this month and not have
28:56
any alcohol. So sober summer has been fun. I have no hangovers,
29:00
I feel great, my anxiety has been great. I am really focusing on
29:03
my health. So yeah, sober summer needs to, I don't know,
29:10
just be more more trending. It needs to be more more of a thing.
29:14
Okay. Lastly, for outs for beauty specific is foundation. If you're
29:18
wearing foundation every single day, guys, let's let's not. Let's be nice
29:22
to our face here. If you're going out for a nice dinner with your
29:26
partner, I get it, put on foundation. I obviously am wearing foundation
29:30
when I'm going out to dinner with Zach, but during the day, we
29:33
do not need to be wearing foundation every single day. Tinted moisturizer will be
29:37
your best friend. I mix this in with my sunscreen every single morning and
29:41
it really just gives that foundation look, but a very natural look. It
29:45
just hides any blemishes you might have, but honestly still looks very natural.
29:51
So a tinted moisturizer is the way to go for the summer makeup. Tinted
29:56
moisturizer, not foundation. If you're going out for dinner and you want to
29:59
dress up wear foundation. I think that makes sense. I would, but
30:03
during the day not needed. The last one that I think is a beauty
30:06
out that I actually saw a few influencers talk about on social media was filling
30:11
in your brows a little too much, you know what I mean, Like,
30:14
give that natural brow look, make them look fluffy, use some brow
30:18
gel. Like I actually suck at dealing with my brows. I don't know
30:21
why. I think it's just because I have super thick brows, so every
30:23
time I fill them in, I feel like I look crazy because they're so
30:26
thick. I'm like, whoa, that's too dramatic. So I honestly don't
30:30
pencil in my eyebrows at all. I just fill them in with brow gel
30:34
and then I'll use another brow gel that's a bit tinted and just kind of
30:38
go over little areas that you know may have gaps or something, but it's
30:44
an out overfilling your eyebrows are out. I think sticking to the more natural
30:48
look. Again, natural makeup in general, I think is what the summer
30:52
makeup is in that, at least to me, that is my favorite look
30:56
for every day. And yeah, we want to look like yourselves. We
31:00
don't want to wear too much makeup, we want to look like a you.
31:03
But yeah, those were some of my beauty outs, activity outs,
31:08
clothing outs, all that. I really wanted to focus on the INDs though,
31:11
because I feel like there's a lot more in and there's a lot less
31:14
out in my opinion for summer ins and outs. But I hope you guys
31:18
enjoyed this episode. I know it's a little later into the summer, but
31:21
these are just some things that I kind of discovered these past few weeks with
31:23
you know, fashion related things for summer and you know, just beauty trends
31:29
and I thing like that. I really wanted to create a list of things
31:30
that I've been seeing through social media or through Pinterest or anything like that.
31:34
So that's kind of why I waited to record this episode, is because I
31:37
really wanted to understand, okay, what is actually in for summer twenty twenty
31:41
four. So I hope this helps you guys out for anything that you guys
31:45
needed summer inspo for, whether it's a vacation or an upcoming trip, or
31:49
just wanting to you know, elevate your style for the summer season. I
31:55
hope this helped you guys. Out, but there is some fun episode it's
32:00
coming these next few weeks because the next few episodes will be wedding specific.
32:05
So the next episode will be something with Zach before getting married, and then
32:10
I'm going to be spilling the tea to you guys about where we're getting married,
32:15
what is happening, all the details of the wedding. I want to
32:17
share it all with you guys. So yeah, I will be obviously off
32:22
for most of the month of August, which makes me so sad because I
32:25

32:35
