5 Things I’m Currently Obsessed With in June

5 Things I’m Currently Obsessed With in June

Well I took a break on this series last month, but I’m back! Check out 5 of my current obsessions that I can’t stop thinking about every month below.

 

1. Summersalt Swimwear

It’s officially summer and there have already been so many pool days! I usually opt for cheap swimsuits from Old Navy, but this year I decided to upgrade with this cute little cherry number. Their swimsuits have so many amazing reviews so I’m excited to see how this one works! Check out a few other adorable options I loved below.

2. @rachel.cargle

If you are not following Rachel Cargle on Instagram yet, go follow her right now! She is an incredible resource for white people who are looking to better themselves and learn more about how to support Black community. Her lessons are almost scientific – she uses her own comments from her past posts and breaks down why they are deflective and can be racist (see here). Hearing these first hand examples has really helped me to learn what can be seen as insensitive and a microaggression.

3. Biker Shorts

Alright guys, this is wayyyyyyy out of my comfort zone! I decided to try these out on a whim with hopes that I’d be able to wear them under a short dress for a cute summer look. Well… that was a total fail. However, I decided to keep them and make them my workout shorts. For reference, I bought this $15 pair from Amazon and while they aren’t the best quality, they do the trick and don’t slide down at all during my workout. Would definitely recommend considering they are just $15.

4. Smoothies

All throughout COVID19, I have been making morning smoothies nonstop and I’m officially hooked. I used to think the prep and clean up process was too much, but now I have a routine and it’s something I truly look forward to. Every day I have a banana smoothie with almond milk, peanut butter, almond butter, flax seeds, and chia seeds. Have a favorite recipe? Share it in the comments below so I can try!

5. Currently Binging: Black Lives Matter

One of the easiest ways to learn about the Black Lives Matter movement is through movies and TV. Netflix has created a specific Black Lives Matter collection and I’m currently working my way through them all. We just watched 13th and wow was it eyeopening. I definitely recommend adding this to your watch list – it is a must see!

    I love that you’re getting on the bike short trend. I started wearing them last year, but really trying to figure out how they work for me and my style this year. I mean those leopard ones I posted on stories were SLIGHTLY aggressive, but kind of into them!!

    I’m obsessed with how you styled this floral dress! I just ordered a few bathing suits from Summersalt and wasn’t loving the fit on my body, but I can’t wait to test out a few more – everyone raves about them!

    Love your post ❤️ I like your outfit especially your sunglasses. I think the hearts are so feminine and give it a fun twist! I’m currently binge watching Netflix as well. I don’t presently eat smoothies. My routine is to have breakfast with a croissant (in Italian “cornetto”) and a cappuccino. I live in Italy and this is my nation’s “guilty pleasure” in regards to breakfast. Just love it 😍

    I have yet to jump on board with the biker short trend! But love that people are rocking them.
