My New Favorite iPhone Case

June 28, 2016

hey all!
today i am bringing you a lifestyle / fashion-y post! its more lifestyle-y because of course a lot of people have iphones, and its fashion-y because of course the case is so cute! so without further ado, i want to introduce you to my new favorite iphone case!
IMG_6196
i am absolutely in love with my jimmyCASE! i have the iPhone SE / 5 / 5S Wallet Case with Card Holder, in the Pink and Gray Stripe with the White Bumper.
and basically today i am just going to talk about my favorites specs on this case…
– well, first of all its made in america! and you cannot say that about many products, and the shear quality of this product shows really, i cannot tell you how many times i have dropped my phone while wearing this case, and as you can see, not even as much as a BUMP or SCRATCH appears. so i really can attest to the quality of this product that is made in america.

IMG_6263
here is my phone case again at lunch with me!

-another aspect i absolutely love about this case is the wallet pocket. this case is not bulky like a typical wallet case, and it doesn’t have that pesky cover that blocks your screen or camera. instead, this case has a little elastic stretchy pocket where you can easily slip a few cards and cash in to just take without a purse, or just for easy access. i really do find this case much easier when i am just running to the market to grab something because i just slip a little cash in and don’t have to lug around a purse all the time. also i just love the pink and gray colors together on this product!
IMG_6223.JPG
even my dad loves my jimmyCASE!

-my other favorite aspect of this product is the durability of it. as i mentioned before, this has no bumps on it, but i never explained why. well, jimmyCASE uses premium products of the mahogany on the case (a design that I absolutely love). the maghogany really is not just a cool accent the purpose is to keep the phone safe which i can attest that it really does keep the phone safe! and this case is so affordable, at a sold $39 anyone would be a fool not to buy it!
well, i hoped you enjoy this post, make sure to check out jimmyCASE on line by going on http://thejimmycase.com!

hey guys!

spring break will soon be upon us! i am loving pastels for spring break, and although i don’t  even own every one of these essentials I AM IN LOVE with all of them, and i would totally want and use them for spring break!

jack rogers palm beach sandals – perfect for sunny california weather and adorable east coast towns

illesteva sunglasses – the blue goes perfect for spring, and it finishes a look by putting it together.

essie nail polishes 1 / 2 / 3 – perfect pinks for your mani to match your spring feeling!

tech 21 iphone case – perfect clear color to put your polaroids or keeping momentos or a little money

tory burch fitbit band – matches perfectly, and hides those ugly plastic fitbit bands, and still counts steps!

vineyard vines hat – perfect to keep the sun away, and a perfect pastel pink for cute instagram photos

supergoop sunscreen – for a pale girl like me sunscreen is always necessary, but especially when the california sun will be coming out!

i hope you enjoy this post! comment of you have any spring break necessities that you think i missed!

My Favorite Yoga Gear

February 18, 2016

hey guys!

so tuesday i posted about how I am doing with yoga so far, so I decided that I wanted to post about my favorite yoga gear , so lets get started:

my mat:

Screen Shot 2016-02-15 at 3.02.55 PM

Gaiam Citron Sundial Yoga Mat : This is a really comfortable mat, and you know its not as expensive as the mats from lululemon, but still really cute and still really nice without that hefty price.

my favorite shirts:

Screen Shot 2016-02-15 at 3.30.12 PM

nike dry-fit cool strappy: very loose fitting, perfect fit, especially when it gets a little warm in the studio, its happens to just work perfectly for yoga even though its for running.

Screen Shot 2016-02-16 at 9.42.21 PM

athleta  fastest track tee : although I have this shirt in red, I love it so much! Its a perfect fit, just tight enough for you to able to move and twist well.

 

my favorite bottoms: 

Screen Shot 2016-02-16 at 9.50.20 PM

athleta sonar capri pants: so basically these are the best pants ever, since they are this sonar fabric, they are literally the best things known to man, never again buying different leggings, I have found my pair.

Screen Shot 2016-02-16 at 9.54.26 PM

forever 21 active striped-side shorts: now some people hate doing yoga in shorts, i understand that, but sometimes its way too hot to deal with putting on and taking those leggings off when your legs are sweaty, these shorts are a great alternative.

so I hope that you enjoy this lil post, and please comment if you have any yoga gear that you would like to share with me!

XOXO
