My Summer Must Reads

This summer, one of my main goals is to read more. During the school year I find myself not having the time or motivation to just sit down, grab a book, and read. However, when summer comes around I like to take advantage of the nice weather by grabbing a chair, heading out into the sun, and delving into a good book. Here are a couple of books on my summer reading list this year!

Past Favorite: As basic as it is, The Fault in Our Stars is one of my favorite books I have ever read, and I would highly recommend it to anyone! This is the only book so far that I have read by John Green but TFIOS definitely makes me want to read Paper Towns and Looking For Alaska. Paper Towns is coming out as a movie towards the end of July so I'll have to read that first!
Currently Reading: I am currently in the process of reading Girl Online by Zoe Sugg. For those of you who don't know her, Zoe is a YouTube beauty blogger and personally one of my favorite people to watch. Her book is a "coming-of-age novel that perfectly captures what it means to grow up and fall in love in today’s digital world," according to Amazon. So far I'm twelve chapters in and really enjoying it!
Next To Read: The next book on my list of must-reads is Girl On the Train by Paula Hawkins. This book is described as being a psychological thriller so of course I have to read it! The book centers around a girl named Rachel that commutes on the train everyday. Day after day she passes the same charming houses until one day, something strange catches her eye. She offers what she saw up to police but then finds herself entwined in the lives and events that follow. I can't wait to cozy up and dive into this book!
What books do you want to read this summer?
XOXO, Emily

Christmas Gift Guide 2016

Image
    December is officially here and it is time to enter full on Christmas mode, so that means I am back at it with the Christmas gift guide! Thanks to an early Christmas gift from my mom (shoutout to Gilmore Girls and the awesome poster inspired by it!) I was inspired to make a Christmas guide that was filled with unique gifts that are something a little different from what you would normally find at the store. Whether it's for your family, best friend, or maybe a treat to yourself, these gifts are guaranteed to impress! For the movie + TV lover // This is by far my favorite item on this guide! My mom got me the In Omnia Paratus poster and I am in LOVE with it! Amy from Window Shop Gal hit the nail on the head when she designed these babies. She takes the most memorable scenes from each show and puts a vintage/classy twist on them. To an average person it may look like a simple poster, but to movie lovers it is and ode...

Fashion Recap: The Oscars 2016

So I'm getting this post up a couple days later than I intended, but I figured better late than never right? As many of you know, the Oscars were held on Sunday and once again celebs were dressed to perfection. From gorgeous gowns to radiant makeup, they completely stole the show. After watching the red carpet and searching the internet for images of the gowns, I've again compiled some of my favorite looks to share with you guys. This time, apart from sharing the dresses that I fell in love with, I also wanted to share a couple makeup looks that I loved with you. Hope you enjoy!  Dresses 1. Rooney Mara in Givenchy  2. Olivia Munn in Stella McCartney Makeup 1. Alicia Vikander: Alicia Vikander has been a favorite of mine at the last couple award shows. Her simple makeup and hair shows us that less can be more, even when it comes to the red carpet!   2. Kate Winslet: While Kate's dress was not my favorite this year, I thought her make...

Fitness Fun

Happy Monday everyone! I Hope you all had an amazing 4th of July weekend! This year I celebrated the fourth by hanging out with family, going on bike rides, cooking out, and watching fireworks! It's no surprise that over holiday weekends I tend to splurge a little on my day-to-day eating habits, especially with dessert, but hey who doesn't? So, in order to get back into the grove of things I decided to share with you some of my favorite workouts. Since running is not really my forte, I often find myself searching YouTube to find fun and engaging exercises. Here are a couple that I always come back to when I'm in need of a quick workout!                                                                  image via pinterest 1  /  2  /  3  /  4 XOXO, Emily
