 {The Summer of Adventure has Officially Begun} 
 
This year I wanted to take full advantage of summer – including trying new things, meeting new people and plenty of road trips. As a result my blog has been left a little neglected but I can assure you I’m back with some fab content to come. Follow me on Instagram to keep update with what I’m up to!

Zoya’s summer collection was recently released and they’re taking summer hues to a whole new level with the release of Island Fun (creams) and Paradise Sun (glitter). I am not sure how I feel about this collection. It\’s not the normal bright from summer colors instead they are more towards muted fall tones. Individually the colors are gorgeous as a collection they don\’t seem to make sense for summer. What do you think?

  Cecilia is a showstopping teal crème.

  Demetria is the perfect summery tomato red

  Jace is a granny smith apple green

  Nana is a jeweled raspberry

  Talia is an ocean blue

Serenity is a dusted purple
Aphrodite is a tomato red with flecks of metallic gold and fuchsia

Genesis is a creamy sparkly white

Isa is a purple shimmer metallic with flecks of blue and purple sparkle

Mae hot pink metallic with silver and pink shimmer


Oceane is an electric frosted sea blue with matching glitter and silver flecks.


Selene is a glittery emerald green

A bouquet of flowers is the kind of romantic gesture that smacks you in the face with sweetness. While this kind of gesture means the world to most of us it’s nearly impossible to receive such a sweet gesture on a constant basis. Here are 9 underrated everyday romantic gestures we’d be happy to receive. 

A kiss before he heads out the door

Texting “Good Morning”

Celebrating the small stuff

Kisses on the forehead

“Remember that one time?”

Texting midday just to say hello

Something homemade like dinner or dessert

Giving a fantastic massage

Buying a dress and leaving a note that says “Put this on dinner at x time”
