Where, oh where do I begin? I am in LOVE with Orange Theory Fitness (OTF)…lol When AprilGoLightly presented me with the opportunity to take a class at the Coral Springs-Parkland location at 6230 Coral Ridge Drive, Coral Springs, FL 33076, I replied with an ecstatic, “hell, yes”! I had heard of OTF before, but have never had the fortunate circumstance to actually try them out for myself. So, I excitedly drove my butt up North from Miami to experience my first class!
y day starts quite early at about 6 AM with my daughter crying for a bottle. I spend some time feeding her and playing some in the morning and then she goes down for a nap allowing me to schedule social media shares and plan my day. Most days, I have play dates or mommy and me, meetings with brands for April Golightly, shopping for posts and photo shoots to get dressed for.

Spring Nail Trends
Spring is my favorite time of year because the colors are so vibrant and fun! Painting your nails is an easy way to start getting in the mood for spring. Before I headed up to New England to visit my family for the weekend, I went to Walgreens to grab a few new spring polishes. There were so many awesome colors to choose from at Walgreens that I had a hard time picking only a few. I decided to go with Revlon Nail Enamel in Bubbly and Essie Nail polish in Sittin’ Pretty, Vices Versa, and I’m Addicted.
Julep’s Maven Beauty Box Review I recently discovered Julep’s Maven Beauty Box which allows you to get new nail polish and beauty products sent to you monthly based on your tastes. There is a new customization option that allows you to customize to fit your style. Each month, Julep Mavens get: A fully customized monthly … Read more
I had so much fun shopping for glasses on OzealGlasses.com. There are so many cute eyeglasses to pick from that I could not pick just on pair! I picked the Radiant Orchid glasses and these round Ospirit Burberry Tortoiseshell glasses. These glasses are a great everyday pair that I have been wearing non-stop. The cool thing about Ozeal is that the prices are so reasonable that you do not have to buy just one pair!
Every season, Pantone releases a series of colors that become a big hit in the design and fashion worlds (you can see the post I created last spring about the chosen Pantone colors). This season, their colors are both soft and vibrant, and a great way to inspire any girl’s wardrobe. In their collection, they included soft pastels like Violet Tulip, Placid Blue and Hemlock (a lovely light green). They incorporated a neutral color, Sand, which is reminiscent of beautiful sandy beaches. Colors like Freesia (yellow), Celosia Orange and Cayenne (red), are feisty and festive and sure way to get you longing for the warm summer sun. Finally, Dazzling Blue and Radiant Orchid (like my prescription glasses) are funky bold colors added to the mix to make the collection pop!
Pantone has declared Radiant Orchid the color of the year which is awesome for purple lovers like me. I was super excited to see the selection of purple Prescription Eyeglasses on OzealGlasses.com. I picked the Ajeya Medium Orchid Stripe after uploading a photo of myself and doing a virtual try on. The base price with single vision lenses and anti-scratch coating was $39.95. This would be the same price if you do not need prescription lenses.

I was always a fan of a clean house free of harsh chemicals, but now that I have a little one crawling all over the house, the importance of using safe products is priority number one. It can be very expensive to choose healthy options, but Walgreens has come out with a new line of products that makes it easy to keep my home clean without having to use harmful chemicals.
I started by cleaning out makeup bag and my makeup brushes using the Walgreens Ology Castile Soap. The soap is a gentle cleanser producing a mild, creamy lather making it safe for sensitive skin and expensive makeup brushes. It has no harmful chemicals like Sulfate, paraben and petrochemical and the product is not tested on animals.It is only $10.49 for 32 ounces. That is a whole lot of brush cleanings!
Steps for cleaning Makeup Brushes from your Makeup Bag:
Pour 1 capful of Walgreens Ology Castile Soap into a small bowl of water. Swirl the brush in the soap and water mixture, being careful to only get the bristles wet.
Gently massage the bristles between your fingers, starting at the base and working to the tip of the brush until it looks like no more makeup is coming off of the brush.
If the brush is really dirty, you can make the liquid more concentrated by adding another capful of castile soap.
Next, press the brushes against a paper towel to dry and and reshape the brush between your fingers.
Lay brushes flat on a paper towel to dry. Always lay your brushes flat to avoid water getting into the handle and ferrule which can cause rust or deterioration of the brush.
Walgreens recently came out with a new line of cleaning products that are free from the following 10 harmful chemicals: Ammonia, Chlorine bleach, DEA (diethanolamine), TEA (triethanolamine), Parabens, Phthalates, Formaldehyde, Nonylphenol ethoxylates, Triclosan, SLS, SLES. Plus, Walgreens Ology does not use artificial dyes or fragrances.

Active Retro Glam Makeup Looks
I am loving the Retro Glam makeup look that I have been noticing on celebs and on the runways lately. Since I am constantly dealing with the humidity in Florida and the weather is getting warmer by the day, I was looking for a way to create a retro glam look that will stay put. I was able to create an Active Retro Glam Makeup Look with the help of Waterproof RIMMEL Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara, RIMMEL Stay Matte Foundation, and Waterproof RIMMEL Scandaleyes Thick & Thin Eyeliner.
My sister is back on the dating scene and was looking for a fresh spring makeup look for a date later in the evening.
