Things Loved in February

It’s hard to believe that another month has come and gone and Sunday is the beginning of March! I’m a little excited about this because March is National Nutrition Month and there’s a ton of stuff going on to celebrate.

But in the meantime, I wanted to share some things I especially loved during the month of February!

**The Andy Cohen Diaries: A Deep Look at Shallow Year**

If you are a lover of BravoTV and/or all things Real Housewives then you will love getting a closer look into Andy Cohen’s life with his newest book. He writes this book like a diary, and his wit and vulgarity are absolutely hilarious. My favorite part was Andy’s journey to finding companionship in a pet and ultimately adopting his dog, Wacha. I could totally relate to the love he has for W! I also *love* Anderson Cooper and he makes many appearances in Andy’s stories. A must-read for all of you reality TV junkies out there

**Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups**

Oh.my.gosh. These things are amazing. They are like Reese’s except 10x better, and I didn’t even think there was a candy on this planet that is better than Reese’s. The best part is that they come in bite-size cups instead of the really big ones, so they are a nice little treat to have and feel like you over-indulged!

**Lululemon Wunder Under Leggings**

Okay, I feel bad that I’m about to promote a LLL product because there are a lot of things about this company that I have not agreed with throughout the past several years. I am in love with a specific pair of their running shorts (they are the only ones I’ll run in, and recently got replaced with the Run Times shorts) but even so, I did not step foot in their store for over a year after the whole see-through pants debacle. But now that they have new leadership and seem to be trying to get their shit together, I’m going to give them a bit of a pass to tell you how much I love their Wunder Unders.

I’ve been on the search for a pair of leggings all winter. I like to take walks outside in the evening and just needed something to cover my legs. I am short and have wider hips, so finding a pair of flattering leggings at the right length that stay up at the waist has been quite the task. I finally caved and ended up getting a pair of Wunder Unders after unsuccessfully looking in about 100 other stores. These pants are amazing, and I love them, and I’ve worn them almost every single day since I bought them. LLL also offers free hemming with pants purchases, so the length is perfect for me. And now I hate myself just a little bit for admitting all of this to you.

**Duluth Women’s Lifetime Leather Tote**

Ah, me and my bags. I like that this tote is nice and big so I can fit all of my work stuff in it (planner, lunch, wallet, and whatever else I need for the day). I love that there are two nice-sized outside pockets, which are hard to find on a leather bag, because they are perfect for smaller items. The cognac color is a favorite of mine because it’s classic and versatile, but the bag also comes in a dark brown and grey.

**OPI Lincoln Park After Dark**

Definitely my favorite winter nail color. So dark. So pretty. I love to wear it on my toes.

**Clean Eating Magazine Subscription**

My mom got a subscription to Clean Eating Magazine for me for Christmas and it’s pretty much the perfect gift for me. I like cooking magazines, but I’m generally conscientious about my diet and find that a lot of recipes I see in cooking magazine are more for indulgence meals and not what I would choose to make on a daily basis…. especially because I tend to make large batches of things to have several leftover meals on hand. I like that this magazine stresses using whole ingredients and making healthier dishes. I also love all of the articles related to healthy eating!

**bareMinerals 5 in 1 BB Advanced Performance Eyeshadow**

I first tried this product when I received a free sample with a Sephora purchase, and then I got the full-sized version in the Neutral Eyes Tutorial makeup kit that I bought around Christmas time. My eyelids are kind of oily so I usually use a primer, and Urban Decay’s Primer Potion has been my go-to product for years. I still love it, but I think this bareMinerals BB eye shadow is a lot more versatile. It comes in several different colors that are nice and neutral. I have the color Elegant Taupe, which makes my eyes look nice and bright when its worn by itself. It is also a great primer if I want to add some color over top of it.
