TGIF! I'm so happy it's Friday, and I'm so happy with this Must Have box from Popusgar! I love these boxes; for $39.95 a month you get a filled-to-the-rim box of amazing goodies. This box is all about living the life in the water, and I'm all about that! Everything in this box is so fun, here's what's inside:
This is my first save vs. splurge post, and I really don't know why I didn't make one sooner! These are so fun - I love finding designer dupes and it never fails to amaze me how many dupes are available for super expensive items. Some things are definitely worth the splurge, because it's no secret that higher quality items (that, yes, cost more) will last longer. That being said, there's still tons of ways to save! Since we're in late summer now (how in the world did that happen?!?!) I wanted to round up some great summer finds, and share their "cheaper twins" as I like to call them! There's definitely things you should splurge on, and what's wrong with treating yourself every once in a while? ; ) Each trend usually has a ton of different priced options and I'm so excited about the dupes I found for some of my summer favorites:

No matter what time of year it is, breakfast can be a struggle. In the summer, I find myself either waking up too late for breakfast or getting out of the house early enough to beat beach traffic; and during the rest of the year getting up, ready and eating in time to get to school/work is nearly impossible! It's so bad that breakfast can be so easily overlooked, because it's clear on how important it is for a productive day. I think I've found the solution to my (and all of yours, too) breakfast problems - Jimmy Dean breakfast foods! Having a healthy breakfast is the best thing you can do to start your day, especially when you're busy!
Thank you to Groupon for sponsoring this post! As always, all opinions are my own.
...from Groupon, duh! It's no secret how much I love Groupon and who wouldn't with how many great deals there are daily and locally? I start my day by washing my face, drinking a glass of water, checking my email and checking for new Groupon deals. I've found so many awesome goods and services via Groupon and especially ones that have to do with beauty and wellness. It never fails to amaze me how many local deals there are that you'd really never know about without checking Groupon!
We're finally in the final stretch to counting down until the Rio Summer Olympics begin!!! Tonight is the Opening Ceremony and I am SO excited; I look forward to this every 4 years more than anything. If you've been hanging around here for a while, you likely know that my little sister is a competitive gymnast so we've always paid very close attention to gymnastics in the elite world. That's my favorite event to watch and cheer for, but I'm also looking forward to the rest of the events! Everything about the Olympics is so much fun and if it weren't for all of the craziness going on in the world, I would of tried SO hard to be in Rio for the games this year! I mean what's prettier than Rio de Janeiro?! This event is the one thing that brings the world together and I think that's a huge part of why it's so exciting to watch.
There's so many awesome ways you can root for your favorite teams and sports and so many different options when it comes to Olympic gear; Under Armour, Nike, and Ralph Lauren are the main three brands selling Olympic gear but there's other brands like Alex and Ani that are selling awesome must haves for the games. Here are my favorites:
I'm finding it very hard to believe today is August 1st... And yes, I'm totally aware that I say the same thing during every one of my currently craving posts each month! The months are flying by and I really don't like it - especially the summer months! But I have so many exciting things happening this month, including heading to Italy! I cannot wait and although I keep telling myself I'm pretty much ready, I'm truly no where near ready and that includes not having a single blog or social post scheduled yet, ha! Typical me ; ) But I sure have had time to shop as we all know... Between the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, summer shopping and a fun time buying Bahamas-gear in the Bahamas last week, my bank account needs a break. I'm also planning on doing a closet makeover this month with full re-organization and man does it need it, everything is a mess!
July has been an awesome month and if you want to check out some of my early favorites for Fall and more, you can check out my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale series that are linked below! Here are my favorite products from July; what I'm loving, currently craving and more:
