Current Obsessions

June has come to end (already!) and I have a list of things that I've been loving. Every so often, I find myself surrounded by the urge to share the everyday obsessions in my life. Without further ado, here we go:

1. NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer: Yes, a concealer is on my list of current obsessions! I was originally very hesitant about buying this because of two things: the price ($29 USD) and the color match. I've had some huge misses in terms of color matches for my skin but to my surprise, the color Ginger in this concealer was as close as a match I could have gotten. The match really made me give in and spend the money on this product and I honestly haven't been disappointed. The coverage is fantastic, the consistency is great for blending, and the finish is so natural which is a huge plus for me! The majority of my everyday makeup routine literally involves putting this on my face with some powder and blush. Das it.

2. Fred V & Grafix: This is a DJ duo that I've recently fallen in love with. One of their songs came up on my Youtube suggested videos and it's been love every since then. Two songs in particular that I love are Nearly There and Ignite. 

3.  A 10-year-old applied to a prestigious tech fellowship: Five by Five, an innovative agency launched their prestigious technology fellowship for the summer and an ambitious 10-year old girl applied so that she get help with the robot she made to make the people of Paris happy! This literally made me smile ear to ear. The best part? She was accepted. Here is a snippet of the acceptance letter:

"Dear Eva, The answer is yes. You have been selected as one of Paris’ first-ever Summer Innovation Fellows among an impressive pool of candidates from all across the world: accomplished urban designers, data scientists, and hardware specialists.  I love your project and agree that more should be done — through robotics or otherwise — to improve Paris’ streets and make them smile again."

You can read the entire letter and story that I've linked above. 

Those have been my current obsessions! It's a short and sweet list for the past two weeks. What are some of yours?

Current Obsessions

1. Top Knots

Guys, I've been a little obsessed with making my hair this way for the past three weeks. I have really long hair and in the summer it's hard to keep it out of my face so one day I decided to just put it up and it was easily the best decision I ever made. I feel so free and most of all I don't feel so hot and overwhelmed! Plus, top knots happen to suit my face so this hairstyle is a total win-win for me. It allows me to look cute and stay cool.

2. Infuser Water Bottle

Strawberry, Lemon, and Mint. GUYS, this is the most delicious combo known to man kind (I'm a little excited) and I'm so glad that I got one of these bottles so I can put these things together. I love putting things in the infuser in the middle and having my bottle in my bag. It's so nice to have a refreshing and healthy drink in my bag. 

3. Larsson and Jennings

Larsson and Jennings is so swoon worthy. It's an absolutely beautiful watch company with minimalistic and polished designs *insert heart eyes*. I've been heading over to their website everyday trying to resist buying the watch above but I honestly think I will because I'm literally in love with it. 

4. Death in Paradise 

I watch a lot of shows. A LOT and recently I've either caught up or finished the shows I've been watching until I stumbled across Death in Paradise. I love the witty characters and the story line which is very CSI esque mixed with humor. That is right up my alley. Sadly, I did ruin some plot lines for myself but I am going to continue watching. Ruined plots won't stop me!
