Love List – The Best Apron and Incredible Smells

Every Wednesday I share the Love List – my favorite finds, recipes, reads, and little joys from around the web. In a very random list, here’s what caught my eye this week: the best big pocket apron for food blogger/food stylist work, a new perfume at Target (omg it smells so good), speaking of smelling good – the besssst smelling candle (smells like a hot man), the ice cream flavor I forgot existed which is actually the best ever, the best dress, and so!much!more! Let’s dive in, this week is a good one!!

• Ok, so, my father-in-law gave me a Hedley and Bennet apron for Christmas, and I’ve used it a few times, but I recently started really working again (I even updated my services page which was broken, oops, lol) and I am so in love with it for working in the kitchen and on photoshoots. It has these big pockets and I can put my big tweezers in and my printer paper with recipes and notes and pens, I’m in love!! I have the one in midnight blue. Can be seen wearing it here!
• This one is a find from another mom – oil cleanser for washing off sun screen … also works really well for washing off marker or temporary tattoos lol.
• Nick bought ice cream, my favvvvve that I have completely forgotten about: Moose tracks! It’s sooo good – vanilla ice cream with peanut butter cups and fudge swirls!
• I had to go to Target with Frankie for a friends birthday gift, and right when we walked in there was a big perfume display, not expecting much, I smelled one. YOU GUYS! OMG This Ambery Saffron one, I wanted to bathe in it, it’s so wonderful, immediately purchased!!
  

  Highlights

  • Inspired by MFK’s Baccarat Rouge 540 (<– I just looked this up and it’s $360 lol!)
  • The smell of wealth in a bottle. You just get the sense that it’s hot and expensive. (<–ok, yes, this is accurate lol)
  • Main notes: Saffron, Orange Blossom, Cedarwood, Amber
  • Crafted in France.
  • Vegan & cruelty-free.
•  I finally got a Longchamp purse/backpack and because I was buying at Nordstrom, I HAD to buy my fave mascara of all time, the Chanel le volume waterproof mascara – a beauty pageant winner told me about this years ago, and I literally have tried sooooo many other mascaras, nothing works like this stuff.
• So random. Nick took the boys to Sports Clips and they gave the boys air fresheners when they were done. You guys, they smell like a hot athlete lol. So, stop in lol, my fave is the “Big Hitter features crisp notes of freshly cut birch wood inspired by the crack of the bat. It captures the clean, confident feeling that comes with stepping up to the plate.”
• Speaking of scents – the Bath and Body Works Book Loft scent is so nice and clean. Their Mahogany Teakwood candle, omg, smells like an attractive man! Clearly I’m a big smells person lol.
• Virgin River is back!! It got renewed for season 8 making it the longest Netflix drama!!!
• Last year I got my favorite ever dress from Spanx and ended up buying 2 of the same dress I loved so much. I decided to buy a fun dress that I normally wouldn’t and wow, it’s so cute! It’s a little different but it’s so comfy and it fits like a glove and I feel like it makes me look good! I was just astonished! Their stuff is a little pricey but it’s made so well and is seriously comfy! I’m wearing a size XL for reference.
