Happy Monday! Just kidding, we all know Monday’s suck. At least today was absolutely georgous in Boston. I soaked up as much of that fresh and air as I could. It was 60 degrees out and yet it felt like 85 degrees after this long winter!
With it now being Spring, I wanted to bring you guys a little something new here on the blog. I am always asked about different things that I’m currently digging. Everything from TV shows to beauty products. I thought why not consolidate these suggestions into a recurring column here on the blog! So I now present to you This Modern Broad’s List – Volume 1!
Last Man on Earth – My roomie and I stumbled upon this TV show half way through the first season back in 2015. Instantly hooked. It is wiked funny. A little cheesy, but overall cracks me up. We completely forgot about it this year until recently when we realized this season had started weeks ago. We have been catching up on demand ever since. Its a great show because it is a little bit of a different story line than your normal prime time comedy.
Bumble & Bumble Bb. Repair Blow Dry Serum – I got a sample of this somewhere. It immediately became lost in my linen closet. Cut to approx. 7 months later. I found this in my linen closet and decided to give it a shot. I am obsessed! I have no idea if it is actually repairing my hair with every blow dry as it claims. But I do love the way it makes my hair feel. You work a small amount into clean damp hair before blow drying. A little goes a long way. My sample lasted me a couple weeks and then I immediately purchased the full size.
@cheapoldhouses – I am OBSESSED with this instagram account. They post beautiful, but in need of TLC, old houses for sale across the country. Literally, cheap old houses. Many of them are historical and with such detail that you just don’t see in shitty new builds these days. I make a point to check out this feed every single day. (And day dream of when I can become the next Chip and Joanna Gaines.)
Seven – 7 Minute Workout App – A 7 minute a day workout app. It was designed based on scientific studies to provide the best exercise in the shortest amount of time. You can do it in your living room because it doesn’t use anything but your body weight or maybe the wall. I use the free version. Everyday I can do either “Full Body” or whatever the other rotating free workout is. I generally do the free rotating workout (unless its too hard!). It has a 7 month challenge built in. It basically wants you to workout everyday for 7 months. Except you do get 3 “lives” a month. So you can basically skip 3 workouts in a month. If you skip more your progress on the 7 month challenge resets to zero. It is a great app because it is literally less than 10 minutes a day so it is tough to make excuses. And even though it is such a short workout, all of the workouts so far have been great and it forces me to at least do a little something exercise related each day.
Sephora’s Beauty Insider Sale – It is Sephora’s annual Spring sale for Beauty Insiders! It ends today! You have to be a Beauty Insider (free program!!) and you get 10% off basically every single thing in the store. (If you are higher than a basic Beauty Insider aka you spend a shit ton of money a year at Sephora then you are eligible for 15% off). You can shop in store and automatically get the discount with a quick scan of your Beauty Insider card (which I keep conveniently located in my Iphone’s Wallet) or online with the coupon code ‘YAYINSIDER’ (or ‘YAYVIB’ or ‘YAYROUGE’ depending on your level of Beauty Insider). I used this opportunity to get some items I have been drooling over. Like this, this and this. And to also pick up a couple of my tried and true faves like this, this and this.
I am off to drown my Monday blues in to a glass of red wine! Let me know in the comments what you guys are currently digging!
