Scene + Loved - March 2021

OK so its April 9th but ITS NEVER TOO LATE… to share my favorite things from March! There are a lot of things that I really didn’t like about March this year, but here are some of my recent purchases that I’d love to share.

The first thing that I MUST tell you about is Olipop. If you follow me on Instagram you are already sick of seeing me post it, but this stuff is DELICIOUS. Pros are: taste, ingredients, unique flavors, satisfies a sweet tooth. Con is the cost and its hefty, but I like to think of it like a kombucha, and then it makes me feel better that I pay $3/can :). Cherry Vanilla is my favorite, then Strawberry and Orange are tied… then Root Beer, followed by Lemon Ginger and LAST, vintage cola. Wasn’t a fan of that last one.

These black sandals are an amazingly affordable option compared to all of the designer “puffy leather” sandals out there that are retailing for $200+. Get them here.

If you have a Pura device, you need to order this scent - Santorini by Brooklyn Candle Studio. The few people who have been inside my home since the ‘tine will agree with you - the scent is amazing its my home’s “signature scent” if you will. Not overpowering, not too floral, just like a fresh, boutique-y hotel type of vibe. I love it.

Oliveda face cream. I didn’t post it but I also use their Anti- Aging eye cream and their Hand Sanitizer too. And this is the BEST smelling sanitizer wow but that’s another story. So this company basically replaces water in their formula, with an elixir made from the olive tree leaf. So instead of most cosmetics where water is their #1 ingredient, Oliveda starts with this “cell sap elixir” is used instead. The products work great, smell great and the company gives back too. Use code “ALLIE35” for 35% off your purchase. I’d start with this cream and this sanitizer. They are so moisturizing and feel so great on your skin.

This little hat is so cute. Its from my favorite Chicago boutique, Alice & Wonder. They have the best stuff and the owner is also named Allie so - its a win win. I got it for Quinn and cant wait for him to rock it all spring and summer. Their whole site is 15% off right now with code: SPRINGDREAM

This sunny symbol on here is a bit more personal. I’ve been really struggling with losing weight since Stella was born and am still very close to the weight I was when I had her, even though I’m working out 4+ times a week and trying to eat healthy. So I finally decided to commit to Noom after hearing about it on The Morning Toast. Its a pyschology based weightloss program that is designed to teach you better habits so that you lose weight the right way, and learn how to keep it off. I’m loving the app for tracking water and food, and also because each day there are lessons about our patterns, and tips on how to eat healthier and feel full. I love to learn about that kind of stuff so each day its like taking a little course on nutrition. If you want to try it, I have a code for a free 14 day trial, and 20% off if you choose to subscribe - so just use this link! If any of you join, please DM me - I’d love to cheer eachother on!
