Winter Favorites 2022

 

I have not done one of these in forever! I am excited to get back into these types of postings. I miss the old favorites and everything. These are my favorites from this winter. I found some new things I really have been enjoying this season. What have you been loving? Also with the addition of my job this was a little later than when I wanted to get it posted but anyways here are my favorites. 

Beauty

Not your mother's leave-in conditioner- This stuff is the best, it really helped my dry frizzy hair this winter. 

Hair tinsel- OMG I saw this on tik-tok and have been loving it ever since. I ordered a rainbow set off of Amazon it has been putting purple, silver, and iridescent in my hair since Christmas. 

Clean & Clear watermelon moisturizer- I love the smell of this moisturizer is so good. Plus it's not oily like some other ones I've tied. 

Morphe foundation- I picked up this one to try and I love it. It's really smooth on the skin.

E-girl style make-up- totally into this make-up trend right now. I love the graphic liner. I also love that most of these looks involve color which is super fun. 

Darling Doll Lashes- These are my favorite lashes I love them. They are so comfortable to wear and go well with the e-girl vibe.

Fashion

Winter boots- Ordered some boots off of Amazon in the duck boot style. They have been so great for this winter and the weather we have had.

Nude tights- Again another Amazon purchase these are so good they are fleece lined so that you can wear skirts and dresses in the winter so helpful.

Plaid skirts- I love a good plaid skirt I think I have bought at least 4 this winter.

Matching sets- I love a good matching set. I bought a Puma one and have almost worn it every week along with my Adeline Morin one.

Headbands Cinderella maid style- I don't know what else to call these they are just super easy to put throw on in the mornings before work when I don't want to fix my hair. 

Hoop Earrings- I love hoop earrings. I have probably bought about 3 sets of 10 maybe. They literally go with everything! 

Home

Lights for the mirror from Five Below- I had been looking to upgrade my mirror to one with lights on it but those things are so expensive. I found a set of bubble lights at 5 below so 5 dollars basically that did the same thing. I love having more light to do my makeup with in the mornings. 

Food

Coffee and ice cream- So Since we got a new coffee maker which I've listed below for technology. I have discovered an Affogato it is so good. It's literally a coffee and ice cream float. So Good! 

Tech

Spinn coffee maker- So we ordered this coffee maker a year ago and it finally came. It is one of the best coolest coffee makers ever. It makes expensive coffee shop coffee right at home all through the Spinn app. It also dries the coffee grounds so that there's no messy clean-up. 

Canva calendar- I love Canva it is so useful I like that they added a content calendar where you can schedule posts. 

Tv & Movies

I've watched so many good movies and shows. 

Sulphur Springs- It is so good even though its more of a kid's show I really enjoyed the light mystery of it. 

Supernatural Academy- I was thinking this was also a kid's show. It is not by any means the characters are all in college it is very good. I love this witch character and her colored hair. 

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs- I finally had a chance to check this one out. It was so cute. 

The Batman- I could probably do a whole post about the Batman. OMG,w I was pretty impressed that's all I'll say.  

Spiderman No Way Home - Amazing need we say more. It was amazing.

Ghostbusters Afterlife- Loved that this was cannon. It was a great way to bring back the original ghostbusters. 

West Side Story - this was a great movie so well done and who knows Ansel Elgort could sing. 

Encanto - OMG Love this so much! I'm even having my birthday on this theme I love Isobella. 

The Woman in the House Across from the Girl in the Window - This was a crazy story I didn't even know what was happening. I also liked that it was shorter episodes. 

The Gilded Age- This is so good I think there are still some episodes left but its just like Downtown Abby. I love the wit of the character's banter. 

ICarly-  I love the reboot it is everything. I hope they'll continue to make more episodes. Icarly was one of my favorite shows as a kid. 

Rupaul - This season it crazy all the girls are so good. 

Paris in Love- I am officially obsessed with this show. I love seeing Paris and how much money they spend it is crazy. 

Live performances

Anastasia- I did get to go see one live performance. Anastasia from the touring broadway cast was incredible. Could not ask for it to be any better.

Book Revew: Serpent & Dove

 Hi everyone,

I recently finished Serpent & Dove. I gave this book 4 out of 5 stars on Goodreads. You can see more about what this book is about here before heading into my review.  Another bookish thing you can check out is my TikTok @brinadancer to see all the books I'm reading this month. I'd love to know what you are reading this month let me know either here in the comments or on my video. 

Hopping on into the review.  I had this one on my TBR for a while since I saw it on TikTok. Plus I love a good witch book. 

Serpent and Dove was overall pretty good. I really like the character of Louise she is such a strong lead. Some of her lines literally made me laugh out loud. I really liked her wit and her backstory. 

I enjoyed the magic system in this book it's pretty interesting since they have white witches and blood witches. The way they conjure their magic is different than other magic systems I read so far. They look for patterns and then their is always a price to each spell they do. 

Moving on to the spice. There definitely is some spice I would give it a 2 on the spice scale. I definitely like the enemies to lovers aspect between Reed and Louise. I would have liked to have more but hope the next book will have more. 

Lastly, I thought this was a little slow at points I wanted things to move a little faster than they did but I like fast-paced novels. 

I would definitally recommend this book. It's definitely a good read and worth the hype from TikTok. Also if you have read this book, let me know your comments below. 

Lastly, if you're looking for other books I have reviews up for Teeth in the Mist, Trials of Apollo, Crush, and many more throughout my blog.

Thanks for reading,  please don’t forget to like, comment, and follow for more of my posts. 

As always,

                Love you Lots BDancer<3

"2022 New Years Resolution" Book Tag

I haven't done a book tag in so long I thought this would be fun. I found this over on the Golden Books Girl book blog. You can see her answers here. So let's hop on into his tag.

An author you’d like to read that you’ve never read:

These are two authors and books that I really want to get to. I have seen so many things about each of these books. There is a lot of hype about them. I definitely want to see if they are worth it. 

A book you’d like to read:

Okay, I'll try and pick one out of my huge TBR list. Zodiac Academy is one that I recently added its also on Amazon Prime reading. I'd really like to read this one. 

A classic you’d like to read:

So I'm not much on reading "classics." But I think Dune is considered a classic in science fiction. So I would like to read it and really the series. I watch the new movie that came out on HBO and thought it was fascinating. I would really like to know more about this world so maybe eventually I'll pick this up. 

A book you’d like to re-read:

I am not much of a rereader but these two series have been on my reread list. I love the Lux series and really wanted to revisit it. It was what got me into book blogging. And of course Harry Potter. I read all these books back when I was in high school one summer so I definitely think they deserve a reread at this point. 

A book you’ve had for ages and want to read:

This book has been on the TBR for way too long I really need to read it. I know there is a lot of hype about it though so I hope when I do get to it, it is as good as everyone says it is. 

A big book you’d like to read:

Another one that I have had on the shelf for a while is Crescent City I would really like to get to the eventually too. It's also a pretty hefty book at 800 and some pages. 

An author you’ve previously read and would like to read more of:

This is impossible there are so many I have such a long TBR list. This is just one I really fell in love with this author when I read Neon Gods. Which was incredible so I definitely want to read more of her books.

A book you got for Christmas and would like to read:

I got Ready Player Two for Christmas. I loved ready Player One so much both the book and the movie even though they were completely different from each other. They were both amazing. Id' really like to get to it soon. 

A series you want to read from start to finish:

I think this cycle fits this question. I halfway started the first one on this series but haven't finished it yet so I would really like to get this series started and finished probably not this year but we'll see. 

A series you want to finish that you’ve already started:

I have been so scared to finish this series. I am on the third book and I just would hate for it to end. Both the first and the second book were so good. I loved them so maybe I'll eventually get the courage to finish this series. 

Do you set reading goals? If so, how many books do you want to read in 2020?

Yes, I set a loose goal on Goodreads to see if I can make it to 20ish 25 books. I would love to be able to read more and get a higher number of books read but there is just not enough time it seems. I think I set my goal for this year to be exactly 20 books so I'm hoping I can make that. 

What goals do you have for this year in reading? Let me know in the comments below. 

   As always,

                  Love you Lots BDancer<3
