Hi friends! Thanks for stopping by—I’m so glad you’re here! 😁
Let’s see what brought the sparkle this week! (How the heck is July already almost over?!)
My cousin and I had spent a good portion of our Fourth of July BBQ talking nail polish (as one does), and this past weekend, I tried out her recommendation: Olive and June! (Olive and June is sold at Target, my home away from home, so I’m not entirely sure how I hadn’t tried them before!)
I ordered the pedicure set, mainly because I was very intrigued by the Posey! I was also curious about how they categorize their polishes by level (beginner, intermediate, etc.). I usually find pale colors to be a pain, so I got the pale “beginner” shade The Queen Takes Her Tea with Milk. It did take three coats to reach some level of opacity, but, I must say, it was not a nightmare to work with! (Unlike Essie “Fiji,” my nail polish nemesis!)
Now I’m just having my own Christmas in July!
In this week’s installment of “Trying to Be as Cute as Mica”… ☺️
This Rebecca Minkoff bag was the perfect size for holding a folder of documents (I’m working on renewing my passport, ugh) annnnd also a thing or two from Target!
I have seen probably a grand total of 4 minutes of Stranger Things, but I am here for “Running up that Hill.” (Thanks, various Reels incorporating it!) It has definitely been the song of the week around here, and I especially enjoy this version, as it makes work 1000x more intense! 😂
Baseball has continued to be such a nice blend of daily company + white noise + something to look forward to. Bonus that this past weekend the Phillies played the Marlins, and my fave Phillie of last year is now on the Fish! I also feel like I’m reconnecting with my high school self because she loved to watch hockey. She very much looked forward to games, was very attached to one random player (iykyk), and delighted in reading all the articles and taping (TAPING!) games. ♥️
Lastly, as someone who just split her Advil supply into separate bottles for upstairs and downstairs use, this hits way too hard. (Though “taping games” certainly aged me as well!)
I also have “purse ibuprofen,” so I am definitely ready for the urn.
What put the sparkle in your week? ✨
Happy Friday! xoxo
