Nectarine Petal by Clean Reserve

I'd say smell is probably my favorite sense, because I wholeheartedly tether people, occasions, and specific periods of my life to certain scents and smells. It's instant nostalgia. I am lucky to have received this perfume to review a while back. I originally posted about it on my Instagram, but I think it deserves a spot on my blog.

5 Songs I Have on Repeat - Spring 2025

Here are five songs that I cannot get enough of right now! In return, feel free to share some songs you're loving currently and have discovered or rediscovered. And if you happen to use Tidal, here's my profile to follow each other.

 

How Bad Do U Want Me by Lady Gaga

I legit hear why people are reminded of Taylor Swift on this one and I'm so okay with that. One of my favorite songs on Mayhem, for sure.

twilight zone by Ariana Grande

Oh man, this is a good one. Admittedly, I find Ariana's songs to be hit or miss. The ones I love, I looovvve. This is a big ol' hit to my ears.

I Can't Tell You Why by Eagles

My favorite Eagles song and I've been playing it more recently. It's so sultry. Who else out there is like me and always says the Eagles instead of the correct Eagles moniker? I just can't drop the "the". It doesn't sound right even if it is correct. Petition to have the "the" added.

Cry to Me by Solomon Burke

Any Dirty Dancing fan should be familiar with this one even if you don't listen to older songs. While it wasn't on the soundtrack, it is featured in the movie when Baby is going to visit Johnny's cabin and they dance. The vibes of this song are immaculate and timeless.

Juno by Sabrina Carpenter 

Bringing it back to current times, I cannot get enough of Juno. The lyrics are fun and the beat is catchy, not surprising in the slightest since it's Sabrina. This song makes me want a pair of fuzzy pink handcuffs!😉

 

 Have a great weekend, y'all!

My Top 8 Sephora Sale Picks

Sephora's spring VIB sale is upon us. I do not believe I'll be making a purchase this time, but I will share eight of my top picks if you are needing any of these categories filled in your collection. 

I specifically was thinking of spring and summer as I was pulling my recommendations together, which was a feat thinking of warm weather while snow was still falling outside my window during what we call Toronto's "fake spring". Though I hate hot weather, I don't mind spring days where I don't sweat just stepping outside. Cardigan weather is my heaven!
