Circus Stripes and Leggings

So here's the thing. I love the Circus. I've only been once, well once that I can remember. When I turned 16 a cute, nice boy asked me out and we went to the Circus. So much fun! Thanks Ammon. ;) I've been dying to go back! So when I found this lil number I just knew it would help lift my spirits before I could make it back there someday.

Sunday Flower Power

I love fashion. I'm grateful for the knowledge I learned through Dressing Your Truth. In the past five years, I have grown to learn what looks best and feels best on my body. I love knowing that my style is perfect for me. It makes shopping fun and easy. If you ever want to know what it feels like to walk into your closet and love everything in it, then check out Dressing Your Truth. I'm excited to share with you some of my favorite outfits and all on a budget!

Here is a way to bring in some summer fun with stripes and wedges to create an adorable trendy Sunday outfit.

Best Bleamish Beads



If you are looking for an exfoliate that is gentle enough to use everyday and provides overnight results, look no further!  Introducing the most amazing exfoliating face and body wash. It is my new favorite because it smells like fresh citrus squeeze and the jojoba beads helps unclog my pores. It's a bit pricey weighing in at $36 at Sephora but I think you definitely get the bang for the buck as some would say because you can use it as a body wash as well.  I can't wait to try some of HIS other products!

 But tell me, What is your favorite face wash to remove eye makeup? I'm using these. One for the shower and one for the bathroom counter. I like them both but I'm not attached, so I'd love your feedback.

Magleby's Chocolate Cake.

There is a restaurant found in Utah called Magleby's. It possesses the most moist delicious chocolate cake on the planet. Now don't be too shocked... but I am not a lover of chocolate. Chocolate is usually too rich for my tastebuds and I even had a moment in my lifetime where I would pick out the chocolate chips in chocolate chip cookies. It's sad, I know. But as I'm sure you would all agree, when a big slice of chocolate cake is sitting in front of you and you can invision your fork gliding through it without a crumb falling to the plate, you know you must have a piece.

 And that it how it is with Magleby's Chocolate Cake. There is a problem though.  I don't live in Utah. And when I bake, I want others to experience my goods the way I experienced Magelby's Chocolate Cake. So I did some research, well actually I saw a commercial and my problem was answered. I've always wanted to know the secret to how Magleby's gets their chocolate cake so perfectly moist and I figured it out this weekend when I baked the most amazingly moist, delicious chocolate cupcakes with this Buttercream Frosting.  Are you ready for the secret ingredient, that really isn't that much of a secret but hey here it is anyway!

Now my next hunt is to find a Gluten/Dairy free version since I am trying to live a dairy free diet after finding out my allergies to Eggs, Milk and Yogurt. Let me know if you have one that you love! Happy Baking!
