home decor: these anthropologie mugs. 
book: rick steves' travel book for italy, of course. 
beauty product: burt's bees tinted lip balm in honeysuckle
{it's on clearance at target right now. run (literally) and get it!}
go-to clothing item: maxi skirt in any and every color.
summer secret: baby sunscreen. it works like a charm.
snack: these delicious pretzels. holy cow- addicting.

  7. Great post! I really like the hairstyle in the picture! I think I might try that in the next day or two. Hopefully it looks as good on me. Ha.

    I don't own a maxi dress, and want to get one so badly. I'm seriously on a budget right now though, and don't have cash for extras at the moment. Hopefully before summer ends though!

    My favorite blush is cliniques fresh bloom allover face color in peony. You should definitely try it. It seriously brightens up your face. I tend to only wear it when I'm dressing up though/wearing foundation which is only once or twice a week.

    I'm your newest follower!

  10. Orange definitely seems to be the go-to color this year - I have plenty in my wardrobe. Lovin' it. =)

    I just use Physician's Formula or Almay for blush because I've found that I have to use one that is hypoallergenic - it is actually more of a "bronzer" and I love how it isn't so intense!

  13. Hi dear! Your post is really nice and helpful!
    I can not tell you my summer obsessions because summer is my FAVOURITE season and you know, I have too many of them.
    So, I will only tell you once---this is the face masks, you can find them here: http://www.apivita.com/face/express-masks.html
    And that's because I spend the most of the sunny days on the beach, under the greek sun and so [when I go back home] I need to feel the hydration on my skin.

    I want to thank you for visiting my blog and for your wonderful comment :)
    You look pretty cool girl!

  14. I so agree with your "when in doubt add blush" mantra. It's the story of my life and for the first time I am opening up to the color orange and loving it!
