Happy Tuesday, friends! I am trying to get back into my normal posting schedule now that I am back from my trip! (Look for a Rhode Island travel guide coming soon!) It has been so long since I have done a favorites post! I try to do them monthly, but it sometimes gets away from me, or I don't feel like I have any new favorites to share. I have quite the list to share this time because it has been so long, and I have broken them up into categories.
FASHION:
-Smocked Dresses: I think smocked dresses are always in style to some extent, but this summer they have really taken over. I am here for this! I wear a smocked dress almost every day, it seems, and I have never felt more comfy and stylish, aha. Love this one, this one and this one.
-Nap Dresses: To go with smocked dresses, nap dresses have been another favorite. I love how you can style them any way you want from casual sitting at home to dressy with espadrilles and a cute handbag. They are light weight and perfect for this hot summer we have been having. I feel like I need to add more to my collection!
-White Sandals: I have a few pairs of white sandals that I have been rotating through all summer. I think white goes with any summer look, and there is no guessing on what color of shoes to wear, just what white shoes am I feeling today. Here are my specific favorites: lace up sandals (use code SARAHFLINT-BALIBBYM for $50 off!), Jack's slides, espadrilles.
-Puff Sleeves: I have been loving this trend since the spring. I try not to give into too many trends because my style and taste is pretty classic/timeless, but puff sleeves have just fit right into the version of my style right now. It is such a sweet, feminine, grandmillennial detail, and I will definitely hold onto it even when it is "less" trendy! Here is my favorite puff sleeve dress on sale!
BEAUTY:
-Caudalie toner: I have been trying several different toners since the start of the year, and I have seen the greatest difference in my skin from this one. I want to try some other products from the line, and see if I like them just as much.
-Sunscreen: Supergoop and Elta MD are my two favorite face sunscreens. I didn't try either brand until this summer, but I will use them from here on out. The Supergoop is a chemical sunscreen and the Elta MD is a physical/mineral sunscreen, if that helps you decide which one you want to try!
-Glossier Boy Brow: After a year of use only this for my brows, it is still my favorite brow product ever!
-YSL under eye brightener: I was totally influenced by a blogger friend to try this. It is amazing at brightening and helping to conceal your under eye! I can't believe I only discovered it this year, ahha. I sometimes use this, mascara and brow gel for an easy no make up make up look.
BOOKS:
-I have been trying to squeeze in as many books as I can this summer. Here are 3 of my favorites so far:

MISCELLANEOUS:
-Bala Bangles: Still loving these, and had to share them again!
-Sparkling Water: I do not know if I have ever shared my love for sparkling water on here. But, I LOVE it! I drink one per day. Its such a refreshing, nice treat in the afternoon, if I do not have an afternoon coffee. My favorites flavors are lime (basic!), peach and grapefruit.
-Morning Walks: I have pretty much been going for morning walks outside, since it was consistently nice weather. Sometimes I listen to a podcast, other times I just listen to the sounds of suburbia around me. I love starting the day with fresh air.
-Hydro Flask: The Hydro Flask lives up to the hype. I drink so much water throughout the day, that this was worth it for me. I love how cold it keeps water, so you always have something nice and cool to sip on.
-Needlepoint: I still love needlepointing, but have been doing so much reading that this hobby has taken the back burner. I have some super cute canvases I want to start, and I am hoping to get in some good stitching before I go back to school.
-Acai Bowls: These are such a treat, but I love them. I live pretty close to a local acai place, and it is hard not to go there all the time! It is like eating a healthy ice cream for breakfast!
As always,
