The tunic is the best way to stay cool and not stress about what to wear during this awesome hot weather! My dress/tunic is an old purchase but when I got out shopping I have to stop myself from purchasing more of these pull over tunics because they are everywhere and soooo cute!
Below are a few of my favorites I have been eye-balling for a while:

I’m Pregnant

I’m pregnant. It is a hard secret to keep. From day one you just want to tell everyone (which some people do) but since it was quite a struggle to get here, I thought I should keep it to ourselves until we felt we were at the healthiest we could be to announce it. And now is the time! Finally!
My husband and I couldn’t be happier! We still cannot believe it. I can kinda tell something is growing inside of me but honestly we haven’t done an ultrasound and I haven’t felt anything move yet so it still kinda feels surreal in a way. BUT! I am feeling the pregnancy vibes so I am learning how to take it easy and be as healthy as I can be for this little creation inside me. For some reason though, this little baby has made it some what easy on me. It makes me crave fruits and veggies! It’s a healthy one.
I posted up the video on to my YouTube account earlier today (12:30PM) it is currently 4PM and am overwhelmed once again by all your kind messages. Really brings tears to my eyes reading that this video made you happy or even cry with joy!!
I have said it before, putting up personal videos is one of the hardest things to do but it also is the most rewarding. Thank you guys for that. Cannot wait to share everything I am going through with you all!!! Hope you don’t mind❤︎

Korean Beauty Haul

Probably one of the biggest things I was excited to do in Korea was walk around the beauty aisles and also do some people watching and check to see what “beauty trend” was happening there. Lucky me, my friend invited his girl friend who LOVES beauty products and had my own personal tour of Korean Cosme. She taught me a lot and told me what was in! I try to explain it all in the video, and its a lengthy one! So grab a cup of tea and come sit with me:)

 

Tried to find all the products mentioned in the video too!

If you follow me on SnapChat (@friediamn) then you know that my home AC went out and I am stuck in a hot house till the end of the week….help~!….
So I have been craving lemon, limes, watermelon…anything refreshing basically. I am a big mojito fan and after I picked up a juicy watermelon, I decided to try to make a watermelon mojito! Most of the recipes suggest you to blend the watermelon and place in ice cube tray to freeze, but I couldn’t wait. Here is what I did for two glasses!

What you need:
+ 2 cups of fresh cut (cubed) watermelon
+ 1/2 cup (or more) of club soda
+ 3/4 cup of fresh lime juice
+ 2 tbsp rum extract (you can also do this virgin and its still REALLY good)
+ 3 large mint leaves, freshly minced
+ little cup of crushed ice
+ 1-2tbsp of brown sugar (depends on how sweet your melon is)

Place watermelon, club soda, lime juice, ice and rum in blender. Blend until smooth.
In your cup place the sugar and mint leaves, then muddle to get the oils out without crushing the leaves. Pour the blended mixture into the glass and mix with a straw or mixer.
Garnish with extra mint leaves and serve!

Most of this I kinda eyeballed to make two glasses, so feel free to add or subtract on what you think you need. It tasted delicious. But once I perfect the portions I will come back to fix it! lol

ENJOY!!!
