December came and went. Now it's a new year, and considering I think New Year's resolutions are stupid, I'm starting the year off with my favorites things for the month of December (although, I'm hoping that I'll keep blogging in 2012, my new years resolution to not eat dessert has already been broken. I'm eating fig newtons as we speak, telling myself that figs are a fruit...there's always next year) Anyways, here's 5 things that tickled me pink in the final month of 2011.
my french press. like i said, it's the classiest way to drink coffee, and I look forward to indulging in a little leisurely sipping on mornings when i have a little more time. actually, i've been finding myself making time for my french press.
i like flannel. ok, i love flannel. i don't care of it's off trend, i don't care if it's oversized, tied at the waist, or fitted, flannel is the shit. I like pairing my boyfriend's flannels with chunky scarves and jeans, or knotting them at the waist with a blazer. They come in all price points and color combos, and in my opinion look pretty great, so what if i look like a lumberjack!
this app lets me stay current on all of my favorite street style blogs. it's always updating, so i'm never left at a loss for outfit ideas. for this of you who aren't iphone freaks, they have a website too!
mmmm, rice and beans. when i was in costa rica, i never got tired of eating this for breakfast. forget that stuff that comes in a box, i use instant rice and toss it in a skillet with some chopped onion and black beans and season to taste. sometimes if i'm feeling fancy i throw in some scrambled egg or chopped chicken. beans are packed with protein and it's a great easy side dish.
i have been a die hard Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer fan for over 5 years, and i am head over heels in love with this Neutrogena SkinClearing Oil Free Makeup. Forget about the price difference (hello. $11.99), this foundation is so light, it makes you feel like you're not wearing anything. It has salicylic acid, so i don't feel like my face is suffocating, and my skin actually looks better after I wash my face. seriously, this stuff is amazing, and definitely worth trying out!
PS. after approximately 7 times of shooting my scarf tutorial, it is all done! Keep an eye out for it!
P.P.S also my dad and I are heading to New York Wednesday to Thursday, so I'll be taking some great pictures of food and give you guys a little travel guide :)
Cheeaaahs! (Cheers.)
