Dear Zack, see? 30’s not so bad. And I can say with all honesty, you are the best looking 30 year old I have ever seen. Also, I can say with certainty that I am done talking about your age. I think I’ve really run it into the ground this week, non? ;)
Dear Costco, I got some new coconut water yesterday! Anyone tried the Vita Coco? I read the ingredients and was very pleased to find that it’s just coconut water, less than 1% natural fruit sugar, and vitamin C. And that’s it. I’m a fan now! The less ingredients, the better!
{I can’t get over his little happy face! Also, I straightened the hair underneath, but kept the natural waves on the upper layer}
Dear Misikko, I am lovingggg my new flat iron! I used to use a flat iron all of the time, and then I just became all about the “au naturel” look, and letting my hair just kind of do it’s thing. But when I was sent this Hana Pro 1″ flat iron, I thought, okay. It’s been a while, but let’s see what I can do with this bad boy. And guess what? I’m a fan. It’s super easy to use, and it’s nice for the days when I need to tame my mane and just want my hair to be a bit smoother and easier to manage. I will never do the pin-straight flat hair (it’s just not my thing- and plus, my hair is wayyy too thick for that) so I just run it on the hair underneath a few times, and voila! Easy, quick and manageable! I definitely have found the holy grail of best hair straighteners! It leaves my hair silky smooth, doesn’t dry it out and is super easy to use. Plus, it’s a nice small size and easy to store. Yay!
Dear Friday night, it’s Lifetime movie night! Probablyyyy my fave night of the week. Because it’s the night that Zack and I make kettle corn, snuggle on the couch with the cats, and watch a really awesomely bad movie. I’m pretty excited. :) Then tomorrow night is movie night at my in laws’ house! That’ll be fun too.
What’s your favourite thing from Costco?
Do you use a flat iron on your hair?
Any fun weekend plans?

*I was sent the Missiko flat iron for review, but opinions are 100% my own.

Seriously, I would have never have guessed he was turning 30! I love your wavy hair! I don’t straighten my hair, most the time, if I comb it as soon as I get out of the shower, it’ll stay straight, otherwise, it kind of just does it’s own little wave thing. Love movie nights :)
Aw you’re the sweetest :) Yay for natural waves! And for movie nightssss I’m so excited!
xo
Your Friday night sounds precious! Happy weekend, Katie!
I can’t wait for the weekend festivities to beginnn!! :)

My fave thing from Costco is their workout t-shirts. I know weird thing to get from Costco, but my sister got me one for my b-day back in May and I loved it so much I had to go back and get another one. They are moisture wicking, lightweight, flattering, and have multiple fun colors. I also love the Jack’s Salsa from there, you can buy that in regular grocery stores too, but nobody has the quantity like Costco. I use a flat iron often. I am the girl with the pin straight hair. I only like to cut my hair like once a year, so a flat iron is a must for taming my nappy ends. No big plans for this weekend, but next weekend I will be in Chicago celebrating 5 years as wifey to my incredible hubster! I can’t wait!
Whattt I need to check out Costco for workout shirts! I had no idea! WOOOO so exciting that you’re going to Chicago!! That’s on my dream list of cities to visit :)

Awww have fun tonight! :)
Thanks girly, I know we will! :)

you my friend are adorable! love your style!
and have fun tonight :) sounds fun! xox
Aww Denise! You’re the sweetest!!

I like your idea of Lifetime movie night for Friday nights! That’s cute :) I use a straightener almost every day, and my hair is crazy thick, too. In Texas (where there’s humidity), I was able to keep it a little shorter than I do now so it waved nicely and I could leave it be. Here in the desert (with zero humidity), I have to straighten it or it looks awful. I combat all of the straightening with lots of conditioning, so it doesn’t fry my hair. I use a croc and love it because you can control the temp of it, and it gets hot enough to put my hair in place without taking forever!
Haha right?! It makes for a very entertaining friday night! ;) Combatting the hot tools with lots of conditioner is a good idea!! Gotta take care of that gorgeous hair!

Your Friday night sounds perfect!!! And your kitty’s face in that picture makes me so happy. I love it! Happy Friday friend!
Right?! I think I need to frame this picture. His face!! He’s smiling! :)

Costco is my faaaaave. I love all of the samples, too! So fun! Agreed, no matter the spelling, they are the best :)

Love your outfit! And love your wavy hair! Mine used to be wavy like that but it turned straight up curly through college. Since it’s so thick I’ve started cutting it short so it’s easier to manage, curly or straight!
I’ve seen so many reviews on the Misikko flat irons… Maybe I’ll have to check them out, I’m do for a new flat iron soon anyway!
Costco is awesome! One of my favorite places to go and just browse! Also their hot dogs are the bomb!
Also so jealous of your movie night with kettle corn! I haven’t had some good kettle corn in a long time!
Just stopping by from the Friday’s Letter’s link-up

I love friday movie nights and Yesss to coconut water. It is my absolute favorite summer drink (or anytime drink) Love you cut blog
Kendra @ openspaces
I love coconut water, too! Though, it is SUCH an acquired taste! I absolutely hated it the first time I tried it, and now I like it. Haha go figure :) Still can’t convince the hubs to drink it though
xo
found you via the Friday Letters blog hop. Super cute blog! :] Can’t wait to read more!
I keep hearing such great things about coconut water, but haven’t tried it yet, myself. Just might have to look into that, now.
P.S. YES to British spelling :]
Aww yay so glad you found me, Sarah!! :) You might not like the coconut water at first, but it grows on you. I love it now, but really didn’t when I first tried it. Just a warning haha
xo
I heart your style! I got the Misikko iron too, and I love it for creating curls! I just reviewed it :)
Xo, Kelsey
Thanks girl! And isn’t it awesome?! :)

I don’t use a flat iron, but a larger curling iron instead to give my hair some bounce and wave. I’ve always been curioous about using a flat iron for curls though. I may have to check out the Misikko.
Your Friday night plans seem perfect. I hope you had a great night!
