Friday Five No. 6

This post contains affiliate links.

It’s been a minute since I did a Friday Five post so today I brought it back with a few fun things I am loving and a new drink!! Check it out below…

ONE. The Starbucks Pink Drink. I have heard a ton about this drink and finally decided to try one for myself this past week and guess what?? I loved it!! If you want to try one for yourself just ask for a Strawberry Acai Refresher and substitute coconut milk for water. It seriously tastes like a pink Starburst y’all. DELISH!!!

Oh, an Sophie got a free Puppy Cup (mini cup of whipped cream) for being a good girl for the groomer!

TWO. I received this Marc Jacobs Glow Stick from Influenster #GotItFree and I can’t wait to try it!! I’ave never tried a solid highlighter before, only powders, so this should be interesting! #MarcGlowStick

THREE. I went to a wedding last weekend for one of my co-workers and had so much fun!! Plus she was a gorgeous bride!! Congrats Bethany and Lee!! Also- please excuse the makeup sliding down my face, it was about 94* outside and about 100% humidity. GAH!!

FOUR. I also made this Peach Dump Cake last weekend and it was the perfect dessert!! I love dump cakes because they are so easy to make and I topped mine with my favorite Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream…YUM!!

FIVE. Again, I’m running super late getting a review up for my May Birchbox, since I just received my June box in the mail, and so I thought I would just show you what I got last month on her real quick!

Supergoop! Sun Defying Sunscreen Oil with Meadowfoam SPF 50 / Davines Love Smoothing Shampoo / Cargo Blush and Bronzer Duo / Vera Bradley Macaroon Rose / CoTZ® Face Natural Skin Tone SPF 40 / Davines Love Smoothing Conditioner

And that, ladies and gents, concludes my Friday Five.

What have you been up to lately??
What is your favorite summer dessert?

    Sounds like a great week! I’m totally going to try that Starbucks drink. It sounds delicious. I love that you used coconut milk instead of water. And that glow stick sounds perfect! I’m always looking to add a little shimmer during the summer.

    These all sound like exciting things and happening for you. The peach dump cake and the pink drink from Starbucks are two things I would very much love to try. I love the treat for Sophie by the way. Thanks for sharing your five.
