Loving & Eyeing Lately | Ninth Edition

Whew I haven’t done one of these in a minute!!! I’m back — and this series is being expanded to include a “what I am eyeing” lately section. Originally I had been including what I have been loving lately — things I already own, do, eat, drink, listen to, etc. I am also constantly eyeing new things and keeping new ideas on my radar too, and I figure they are worth sharing with you. So here we go. I am loving lately: a fall candle, a piece of furniture, a bracelet, photos from a photo shoot I did recently, and a podcast.

I am eyeing lately: hands-free slip on sneakers, knee high boots, pretty curtains, a local flower press company, and a new waterfront restaurant in downtown Charleston.

My Favorite Clean Beauty Products (+ some dirtier ones I can't let go)

I started “cleaning” up my beauty and household a couple years ago when my husband and I were about ready to start a family. (synthetic fragrance and parabens etc are hormone disrupters!) I detailed the household items I cleaned up in a series I called “Detoxing my Charleston Home”. You can read a summary here. I haven’t talked much about the beauty items I’ve transitioned to, well, because I am no beauty blogger but after two years I’ve found quite a few I’ve loved and want to share with you.
