July Favorites

Blue - Kinsey
Purple - Karlie


The Amazing Spider-Man - Spider-man has always been one of the greatest superheroes, but it just gets better having Andrew Garfield play Peter Parker and Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy.  They're the cutest couple ever and are perfect in this film - their chemistry is so real and allows for the viewer to connect with them.  If you haven't seen this already (or even if you have) you should go see it again, or just buy it so you can watch it on repeat :)


The Dark Knight Rises - I can't express how much I love this movie.  It was an epic ending to the trilogy.  That's all I can say - I just simply love it.

The Fault in Our Stars - I'm sure many of you have heard about this book, but for those of you who haven't, it's a must read!  John Green takes you through a journey with two cancer patients who fall in love.  1) Who isn't a sucker for romance novels? and 2) The ending is absolutely heartbreaking (don't worry, I'm not giving anything away - you'll have to read to find out for yourself).


Minnetonka Moccasins - I recently purchased a pair of Minnetonka Moccasins and they are the most amazing pair of shoes ever!  It's currently summer where I live so it's too hot to wear them out, but they make great indoor slippers!  I cannot wait for winter to come so I can wear these everywhere(:


Steve Madden Eltonn Flats (Bright Multicolor) - I LOVE these shoes!  I recently saw them discounted at a local store and wasn't quite sure if I should buy them.  After going through possible outfits I could pair them with (yes, I do this) I decided they would be a great purchase!  You should definitely pick up a pair(:  They are bold and outside of the box...not what most people would expect!


ModCloth Game Night Guest Dress - I absolutely adore this dress!  The exposed zipper and cutouts in the back are gorgeous!  It adds an element of surprise that will be sure to wow everyone else!  The color is probably what makes me love it most - I've had an obsession with teal recently and finding this dress was just amazing!


dELiAs Mint Lace Dress - I love this dress!  The mint color is gorgeous and not TOO minty.  It is almost more like a mint blue green but still brilliant!  The style feels more old fashioned (at least to me because of the lace and cut), which is something I'm recently getting more into.  Go ahead and be bold - dare to channel your inner Audrey Hepburn.


And of course, since the Olympics have started, here are some of our favorite Olympic events:

  • Gymnastics
  • Swimming
  • Diving
  • Track and Field
  • Volleyball
  • Basketball

June Favorites

Blue - Kinsey
Purple - Karlie


Marc by Marc Jacobs Long Strap Purse - 
This isn't the exact purse I was thinking, but I couldn't find the one I saw in the store online.  It was a gorgeous teal color with a long strap.  It didn't really have any pockets on the outside and wasn't that big, but it was the perfect size for keeping everything you need to go out!
Movie: Take Me Home 
I was initially going to watch this movie with my friend, but we didn't end up buying it.  So, when I got home, Kinsey and I bought it on iTunes and had a movie night!  It was amazing...if you're into romantic comedies, you definitely have to see this movie!
eos Smooth Sphere 
These little chapstick balls are amazing!!!  I think between everyone in our family, we must have at least 10 lying around the house.  My personal favorite is the lemon drop one, but the strawberry sorbet one also smells so good - and they make your lips super smooth! 
Holey Sweaters 
They're perfect for summer weather since they're not too thick.  You can wear it to the beach over your swimsuit or over a bandeau or tank top when your hanging around.  I definitely have a ton of these stocked up for the nice summer weather.
High Waisted Shorts/Cutoff Shorts - 
For high waisted shorts, I am so in love with this style of shorts.  I feel like you can wear it with almost any t-shirt you have and it'll look super cute.  They're perfect for summer when you want to mix things up, since they're still shorts.  If I can find a pair of high waisted shorts that are also cutoffs, even better!  The cutoffs just make an outfit seem more casual and beachy.
Boyfriend Jeans 
The most comfortable pair of jeans I have ever had.  You can wear them day or night and it'll still make an adorable outfit.  Also perfect for summer since they're not too tight so you won't feel too hot.
Zara Bow Sandals -
I first saw these on polyvore when I was making this set.  I think they are perfect for summer!  You can use them for somewhat nicer occasions or when you're just going to hang out with your friends.
Artist: Passion Pit
Song: Stranger Attractor - Animal Kingdom


Artist: Of Monsters and Men
Song: Primadonna - Marina and the Diamonds


Book: The Help -
When I saw this book in the bookstore, I knew I wanted to read it before I saw the movie.  I knew it must be good since I had heard such great things about the movie, and everything I heard was so true.  Kathryn Stockett is able to connect with the reader through the characters and their relationships with each other.  Definitely a must read!
Hope everyone had a wonderful June!
xoxo, Karlie and Kinsey
