A couple of months ago I talked about how I discovered some of
my all time favorite beauty products were not cruelty-free
(you can read that post here if you missed it)
So for the past couple of months I have been switching
all of my products so that I am only using cruelty free brands

Its the holiday we have all been waiting for - BLACK FRIDAY
hahaha, just kidding...well kinda
As a shopaholic I count it as a major holiday
In fact I like to make it through Thanksgiving
and Black Friday before I set my sights on Christmas
If you do it right I swear black Friday can
take as much preparation as your Thanksgiving dinner

In GWYF the incredible Rachel Hollis names 20 lies that
we women tend to (consciously or subconsciously) tell ourselves
The Wedding by Nicholas Sparks
I know, I know - having a favorite Nicholas Sparks book is totally cliche.
But this book is unlike any of his other books, in my opinion. Yes, it is
sappy and romantic but the overall plot is breathtaking. It truly made me
cry big tears. I don't know how it has not been made into a movie. If you're
looking for a light-hearted, happy read then this book is perfect!
The Harry Potter Series by J.K. Rowling
If you haven't read this series yet then you must live under a rock - and
no, watching the movies does not count. These books are written with such
intricate detail, its really amazing. Even if fantasy settings aren't your thing
the way these books are written make it all seem so real. The characters are
so well developed its hard not to become invested in their lives. I've re-read
this series a few times and I get lost in the stories every time.
The Shack by William Paul Young
This book is a true game changer. It is a book that follows a
grieving father who, since losing his youngest child, is struggling with his
relationship with God. Young manages to portray God and his teachings
in the most relatable way I have ever known! Plus (and I don't say this lightly)
the movie is just as good as the book. I haven't read this book in a while, but the
movie is one of my favorite movies of all time. After experiencing the tragedy of
losing a loved one and questioning my relationship with God it took on a whole
new meaning. If you have experienced this as well I would definitely recommend
reading this book and watching this movie, it hits on some seriously
raw emotions, but it really is an amazing story.

Used to, when I would hear the word I thought of a modern version
of the political radio shows my father used to listen to in the car - no fun
While there are many podcasts like that there are also some seriously
entertaining and inspiring podcasts that I truly enjoy listening to
I discovered this because one of my favorite women in the
whole world, Sadie Robertson, came out with one a little over a month ago
So I wanted to talk about podcasts because they are my new "thing" I
enjoy when I need some me time
Happy Friday!
I have read so many good books lately and I am so excited to share my favorites
All of them are linked at the end of this post
So I am definitely no fashionista...
I don't follow the new trends that come with each season
But fall is my favorite season,
especially when it comes to the clothes
and it is in full swing here in Germany!
So I wanted to post a few of my favorite new
fall pieces from my favorite boutique
Self-love is a huge trend right now
In fact it has even become a movement about
putting your happiness and well-being first
like many things, how you take this is up for interpretation
and you can go about this in several different ways
my journey to being more self-loving has been about bettering
myself as a person, both physically and mentally
here are some of the steps i have implemented in my life for the bettering of myself
I got to Germany at the perfect time, right at the beginning of Festival Season!
The first weekend I was here we went to Pig Fest but I was so overwhelmed with
the excitement of being in a new country I hardly took any pictures. (plus it was all
about hot dogs or "bratwurst"...yuck) - still fun though

But this past weekend there was a WINE FESTIVAL
and in my opinion there could be no better festival
I have been so excited about this!
