It’s time for another Five Things I’m Loving Right Now. The weather is getting warmer and I am ready to swap out warm bulky clothes for sandals and sundresses, lighter scents, new decor, and plants. I look forward to each season and freshening things up.
I switch out m perfumes each season. I like different, seasonal scents. Aerin Lauder’s Lilac Path is my favorite spring scent. A beautiful lilac scent that is not overpowering or fake. It’s light and refreshing and to me is spring in a bottle. Lilac is one of my very favorite scents. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a new scent.
Mackenzie-Childs is one of my favorite home decor lines. Mixing and matching all of the different patterns creates a custom and personal look. The new Royal Check collection has become my new favorite. I have many pieces in Courtly Check and Parchment Check, but this collection is beautiful. Gives a pop of color to any space. I also love the glass knobs on many of the pieces. I am slowly working this into my decor. I refreshed my kitchen with a few of these pieces, pink accents, and lemon decor.
Spring means it’s time to start planting. I’m at my home in Arizona and I was feeling the itch to add some new plants after stopping at a local nursery. I love tropicals and anything with a beautiful scent. I picked up some gardenias, hibiscus, and these pink jasmine. I have white jasmine already and when I saw the pink I had to have it. The pink also blooms earlier than the white jasmine. When the wind blows the yard smells amazing.
With the weather warming up it’s time to ditch the heavy sweaters and layers. Lilly Pulitzer dresses are my go-to for every season, but especially in the warmer weather. Sweatshirt styles are perfect for cooler days and nights. Shift dresses are classic, and always in style. My favorites are the swingy easy dresses and the rompers. Comfortable and stylish. Add a great pair of sandals, a few accessories and you have the perfect outfit.
My hair tends to turn too brassy. I have been going with a more platinum color to match my natural color. Sometimes purple shampoos turn my hair too purple. I was searching for something new to try, and this popped up on Amazon. The Keracolor Platinum Clenditioner. It’s a cleansing conditioner. I still do give my hair a wash before using this. I usually will put this on and let it sit about 10 minutes once a week before I rinse. I have been really pleased with the results. There are so many fun colors to try.
I hope you found something new to check out. These are just some of my recommendations for spring. I am so ready for the change of seasons. Is there anything you recommend I should try? Let me know in the comments if you try any of these out. Until next week!
