If you frequent my blog, you know that I love my bkr water bottles so much. They are usually included in my monthly favorites posts, and I use them every single day. So you already know that I was super sad when my 500ml Elle Heart bkr broke. Here’s what happened:

This is my second month of being vegan! I started eating vegetarian in 2013, and decided to progress to eating completely plant-based in September. The transition has been alright so far, especially since there are so many amazing vegan “substitute” foods available. I’m also still on my weight loss journey — which has slowed down since I lost 30 lbs. I’ve lost 6 more pounds since then, and I wanted to share what I eat in a day now that I’m vegan:

I’ve had my Fjallraven Kanken for a little over a year now. I initially bought it because I wanted a good backpack that I could use everyday and I really liked the squared-off design. Now that I’ve had the backpack for a while, I thought I would do a follow up post to let you know what I think of my Fjallraven Kanken backpack one year later.
I recently bought a new iPhone 8 Plus, so of course I wanted to get a cute case to protect it. A glitter case has been on my list for years, and now I’ve finally found a good one. Check out my full Casetify Glitter Case Review:
As you probably already know, Apple just released their new iPhone models — the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus. They also announced the iPhone X which will be released in early November. I know a lot of people who are wanting an upgrade are waiting for the iPhone X, but I thought the 8 was going to be better for me.Â
I’ve been using the Polaroid Zip photo printer for a while now, and I stocked up on a lot of the zink paper. I love decorating my planner with little photo memories and having real photos I can touch. Polaroid updated their app on iOS, and lately it’s been really awful navigating to try to print out a photo. I found a deal on the HP Sprocket photo printer and it uses similar zink paper. Since I have a lot of the Polaroid paper still, I started wondering if you can use the Polaroid zink paper in the HP Sprocket.
I love having a plan and just being able to write out/organize my thoughts — it helps me to keep track of everything, and also track my progress on any goals I have. My favorite planner for the last few years has been my Erin Condren Life Planner. Now that the end of the year is approaching, I am getting super excited to use my new 2018 Erin Condren Life Planner!
It’s finally here — my Hawaii travel diary! We recently went on a trip to Hawaii and we had the best time. I posted some pictures on instagram along the way, but here’s a recap of our entire Hawaii experience:
We recently went on vacation to Hawaii, and I wanted to make sure we were able to capture all those special moments on the go, at the beach, and even in the ocean. I did a lot of research and decided to purchase a GoPro Hero 5 Black. Here’s my full review/experience:
We went to Whole Foods today to pick up some groceries. In September we are choosing to eat all plant-based — Septegan (September + Vegan), but I wanted to get a head start and make sure we had some awesome vegan foods ready to go. I found some new recipes that I wanted to try out through Instagram, so I bought those ingredients and some regular everyday foods too. Here’s everything we bought:
While we were in Oahu, we wanted to check out the Diamond Head crater and do the hike to the top. We had never been to Oahu before but had heard how beautiful the view was. Here’s my Diamond Head hike experience:
I’m really excited to share my little etsy haul with you! I’ve been using an Erin Condren Life Planner for years and I love the bright, colorful version. Each month is a new color which keeps it interesting and makes me want to keep using my planner. I love the colorful details throughout, so I don’t use a ton of stickers that cover up all of that detail. You already saw all of the things I use when I plan in my Planning Essentials post, but recently I turned to etsy to find some decorative sticker sheets for my upcoming vacation. I found some awesome deco stickers, and even some new washi tape!!
Check out my etsy planner stickers and washi tape haul:
If you haven’t heard of Popsockets, they’re little plastic phone grips that expand out to make it easy to hold your phone or other devices. I’d wanted one for a while, but I wasn’t sure if it would work with my phone case. I have the iPhone 6s with an Apple silicone phone case and I couldn’t find any information on if the Popsockets stick to the Apple silicone case, but I decided to try it out and see for myself. Hopefully this answers any questions you have too:
