Fact: the last time I genuinely chose to wear normal shorts was in 8th grade. Yes, 10+ years ago and really because I was obsessed with my Abercrombie & Fitch collection of possibly too short shorts. Eventually as an angsty teen I decided to wear the most unflattering longer shorts and I truly wish I could forget this time of my life.

A way back somehow (I'm not very sure how) I began receiving the Goop email newsletter. A long with links to interesting stories on their website the offer tips and tricks, how-to's and product recommendations on fashion and style. At the very end of the newsletter there's a section of clothing and accessories they currently love. I think it's pretty cool because what they choose often puts together a really chic outfit with clickable links to buy.

I don't really have a good theme for this month's mix/playlist. Sure I could do "spring" but it probably would have ended up with a similar feel anyway (and I've done Spring Break). So I've just put together a playlist of stuff I'm really into lately. It's mostly new music (songs or tracks from recently released albums) with a variety of genres.

Wow that's quite a few "tion" words, isn't it?  The Criterion Collection is one of my favorite things to ever exist. The Criterion Collection collects the most popular films and packages them with tons of exclusive extras for film lovers to enjoy. They are mastered for the greatest watching quality and new additions are made monthly. The collection has evolved as technology has changed and is currently available for streaming on Filmstruck. There is an expansive variety of directors, countries, and films to choose from.

Warmer temperatures means a change in my beauty must-haves. Really anything that keeps me from melting is entirely welcome. A must have in my book is anything that enables survival but keeps me feeling confident.
