 Hey y'all, what's up? My name is Sonali, welcome to a new week in my life. I'm starting off this vlog on a Tuesday because I filmed a Sunday reset and I just wanted to finish it off yesterday, which was Monday. But today is actually another Amazon Prime Day. Amazon decided to do two Prime Days this year, which honestly is perfect because this one's definitely closer to the holiday so it's a good time to get gifts. I know the sale will be done by the time you watch this video, but I always post a lot of like Amazon fashion finds. Honestly, just Amazon finds in general on my TikTok and Instagram. So if you guys are interested in falling over there, definitely go do so in case there's like any other Amazon sales this year. I don't even remember ever hearing these like mowers out there or what are they called? Leaf blowers, what are they doing? I don't even know, but I live in an apartment complex like really high up and I'm like, can you go away? This morning I've been just adding stuff to my Amazon storefront and making like little collages. I'm gonna be posting a lot on TikTok and Instagram like I said today. So just kind of preparing those posts and kind of creating lists of the products that I want to make content about. Yesterday I don't even think I got outside of the house, but today is gonna be a fun day. We are going to a ramen opening. I think it's called Merafuku, I think. We'll find out tonight and I've actually heard of it. I think there's one in like a bunch of big cities. So I'm very excited to try that because Ramen Totsuya is definitely the best ramen here in Austin and I'll keep you guys updated to see if it beats that. And then after my friends are gonna come over and watch Bachelor in Paradise like we always do on Tuesdays, even though like it happens on Mondays and Tuesdays, we just decided to just like hang out one night. So the countdown for when I go home begins and it's nine days out now and I'm just trying to like write down all the content pieces that I want to film while I'm here because I love my filming set up here and I know when I get home I'm gonna like struggle with like where to film because I'll be staying at my mom's house for a couple nights and then like my dad's house and I don't know, I just like really again, like my filming set up so I just rather get it all done and filmed here and then I can edit it back home. So I actually use Notion and I've been using Notion for like a couple months now. It's just like a really easy like note-taking organizing app because you can really customize everything and make like a bunch of pages and kind of just like do a brain dump. So I'm gonna finish up on this list and I don't have like too many groceries so I definitely want to possibly like make a meal plan for this week and go to the grocery store today. All right, skin package is here and I purchased like a bunch of t-shirts I think I already told you guys but I'm so excited because I've literally been seeing like skin shirts everywhere on my TikTok for you page. Like I cannot escape them and I'm so sad because today I saw like the long sleeve versions and I was like, wait, did I buy any long sleeves? And I didn't and then I went back on the site and they're all in stock so that's probably why I literally couldn't buy them which was so sad. But let me show you guys a sneak peek and I also want to sneak peek for myself. Okay, so there, well at least this one is pretty much the same material as my body suit which I love and I don't know if you can tell but it's kind of like more of a yellow cream little t-shirts. I think I got them all in larges. So keep your eyes peeled for that haul. I also have been meaning to film an Abercombe haul. Oh my God, this feels so amazing and I love this color so much. Wait, I'm so excited. Anyways, I actually got so much stuff from Abercombe again, bought it all on my own because I wanted to do like a fall haul for you guys and plus I love to stock up on Abercombe basics in the fall because I feel like they just like do fall so well and especially the basics. So I am actually going to try to film that today and I totally forgot that that ramen thing actually starts at like five-ish and I told them I would be there at 5.30 because we wanted to be back home in time for a Bachelor in Paradise which means I usually am like running around cleaning up the house before my friends come over, literally like seconds before they come over but I should probably do that now because I won't have the time to do that. I also really need to give Sophia back and I don't know if it will happen today but I'm going to put it on my to-do list so clean the house, give Sophia back, try to film this Abercombe haul. Today was like not supposed to be hectic but I feel like with this Amazon Prime sale I just want to get like all my content out ASAP. So yeah, that's what I've been trying to like focus on right now. I was just looking through my YouTube comments randomly and someone said that they saw my article go up so I'm officially in the New York Times. Like my name, my little TikTok is in the New York Times they're just so cool and I will post a link in the description if you guys are interested in reading it. It's only like a little blurb of my name so nothing too crazy but it is just talking about how I got the dupes for the Birkenstock clogs. I feel like I sound dumb because they say like and she put it in. Oh my God. I said like so much and she put, you're joking. Like can they not just edit that out? That is so embarrassing. I'm in the New York Times and pretty much said like half of my words like half of my words are like I, why did I do that? Okay, well, I mean that's cool but I'm like should I promote that because I sound dumb as shit. Anyways, I'm gonna send a link to my parents at least but I need to get to cleaning. I was distracted, that distracted me. We're up so I really just like laid out a bunch of blankets. So that's the explanation for everything on the floor but this is my outfit. I just repurposed the same top I was wearing. The set was from Aloe. I don't know if I told you guys that already but this cardigan is like one of my favorites from Aberhomie from a couple years ago. Jeans are Zara and then shoes are a new balance. I'm taking my friend Kiona to the grand opening party of Marifuku Ramen and I don't know, I don't know. I told you guys I love Ramen Totsuya so we'll see if it compares. That was perfect timing. So here's our review. I still think Ramen Totsuya is probably the best but this is a close second and like it's really, it's still really freaking good. I've also had Jynya Ramen and I think this is way better than Jynya but something about that Ramen Totsuya broth is just so good. Yeah, nothing beats Ramen Totsuya but it was still really good. Oh the bao buns were really, really good. Yeah, the bao buns were really good. The chicken karajikurage was also pretty good. I also prefer Ramen Totsuya. Oh and funny thing, I asked if they were like, like what was the chicken karajikurage? And I was like, oh, was it like chicken nuggets? And she was like, no, it's like fried chicken. And I was like, okay. Which honestly, no, I think there is a difference though because chicken nuggets is like ground chicken and fried chicken is like the fried. I thought it was just the shape. Like I thought chicken nuggets were smaller, chicken tenders are bigger, chicken breasts are even bigger. But I mean, I could be totally wrong. Yeah, maybe, I don't know. Yeah, but that was funny. Okay, we're gonna go home and wash, wash, wash my face. Good morning, it is Wednesday. This morning I had an early morning shoot. It was a grad shoot and the lighting was just so good. I die for when there's like sun flares and it was just a good shoot. It was very like humid today though. And I was like, this is not lovely but I think right now I just kind of need like a little something, something in my system. So I got these little muffins the other day from the grocery store. Let me just, let me fix this situation. Everything's falling out. I got these little muffins the other day and they're like cinnamon muffins. I've tried like the veggie blueberry one or whatever and it was pretty good. So I'm kind of excited to try this. I do wanna make me some like toast and maybe like a smoothie later but I already have a call in 20 minutes with the agency that I signed to. So I signed as a non-exclusive influencer. So that means that they only take 20% of what they give me, okay, like brand deals that they come to me with. So that'll be good because I feel like I'm getting a lot of brand deals on my own anyways and they won't have to take my money from those, you know? So that's good. But other than that, today is just going to be super productive. I just have like a bunch of computer work to do. It's also prime day today. So I think I wanna post some content for that but yesterday I like cranked out so much content. So that made me feel good but I'm gonna eat this muffin. I'll let you guys know if I like it or not. I think I like the blueberry one better but it's not bad. And there's like a little bit of like cinnamon icing on it. This is the packaging. You guys are wondering. And they're pretty low calorie but honestly I just need something to like satisfy me for a second and I'm gonna make a bigger breakfast in a little bit. I just got off my official onboarding call with my new management agency and it went really well. It was just kind of like she was asking me basic questions about like what brands I've worked with in the past and what brands I wanna work with in the future and it's awesome that we signed right now because holidays are coming up and I feel like that is a huge time for just brand deals in general. So I'm very excited for that and I'm still working to get that 100K but I asked her advice on that and I was like, do you really think it like matters if I have like 100K followers, you know? And she was like, honestly, I don't think it does when you partner with brands. It's more important to have like a good relationship on emailing and communicating with them and just like being easy to work with and also like just having really good content. So she said that I shouldn't have any issues with that which made me feel, you know, good because I feel like this whole time when I heard that 100K thing it's been at the back of my mind. I'm like, okay, I need to like get there so I can, you know, then kind of graduate and like be able to raise my rates and all that kind of stuff. I don't even know if I'm boring you guys so let me know if you guys think this is interesting or not. But anyways, yeah, it was just nice to hear and kind of like be validated in that sense. Right, when I got off that call I just felt so tired because one, I woke up really early and also I put my Apple Watch on like I started like a goal thing and it said I burned like 500 calories doing the shoe which, you know, that's awesome because I wanted to work out today and now like that is my workout. Also I'm putting some passion fruit in my smoothie. There's this place here, I think we're close to South Congress. I wanna say it's like Plaza Colombian, maybe, I don't know, they sell a passion fruit smoothie and it's so good and I realize that they sell these little frozen cubes at Target so, or was this from Whole Foods, I can't remember. Gonna put some coconut milk in here cause it's about to go bad and I need to use it. I think I showed this little blender thing on the vlogs but this is the Beast Blender and it is so cute. I don't think I even like took off all the stickers, I should probably do that. But it honestly blends even better than a Vitamix because I also have a Vitamix and especially when things are frozen, I don't know, the Vitamix just like does not do as well as I once thought it did. So just gonna blend this up. I think I might wanna add a little bit of ice, let's see. Actually, that's not a bad consistency, maybe like one or two ice cubes. I'm also gonna just like taste it really quick. So yummy, it's like a little bit sour from the passion fruit but I also added like super ripe banana so it could be a little sweet, yum. And then I'm just gonna make some toast. Y'all don't really need to see that, I feel like that's boring but I need some kind of energy. So if I don't have it from this meal, I might need a drink, a chai later. I just heated up the leftover, Rahm and I already tried it. Honestly, I feel like it's better on the second day's leftovers or maybe just like the noodles really like soaked up the broth. Oh, it's good. But I'm feeling very cozy. I'm honestly so proud of myself because I pushed through the midday slump and I just did like a bunch of computer work. I kind of was feeling like today it wasn't gonna be like a filming day because I don't really wanna put on makeup. I also have two headshot sessions which are really quick sessions but those are starting at 5.30. I just went and uploaded a bunch of like tap to edits on my photography Instagram. I've honestly been meaning to do this for a very long time and I just feel like it's going to help my potential clients see like the difference in my editing and hopefully that will push them to hire me or go with me out of all of the photographers that they're looking at. So I'm gonna post a bunch of tap to edits on the screen because I think they're just so fun to look at honestly. I know I talked about going home and going to some of the Bali parties. I reached out to a couple of companies that make Indian clothes to see if they would wanna collaborate because I haven't gotten an Indian outfit in so long and I'm going to already like be creating the content. So I was like, why not just like try and shoot my shot? I've already worked with one of these companies before and I think that they are going to say yes. So I'm very excited to get my new Indian outfit. Also I cannot seem to get off this couch and work for my office desk in the filming room. I just love it so much and I love to be cozy and that's also really, really bad because obviously I don't think I would be hitting my midday slump if I wasn't on a couch, you know? Just pulled up to Waterloo for my shoe. I don't know what this is doing, making me look like I have no head. I totally forgot that there's usually concerts here. I think they're setting up for an event but hopefully it's not too crazy. Just got done with my first headshot session and they are setting up for an event but thankfully they're like not taking us out or anything. I mean, it is a park so I don't think they like really would unless there was the concert going on but this is what's around us. Just like a bunch of random shit and this was the headshot we took. I'm kind of mind blown. I feel like this canopy sculpture thing is just so cool for photos and the lighting looks really, really good here right now and Jackie is on her way over here. I think she's like two minutes out so I'm about to take her headshots and then we'll head home and figure out what we're gonna have for dinner. I still have not gone grocery shopping because I decided that I probably have some frozen foods that I can eat and free up space in my fridge so we'll try to find something at home. So we just finished Jackie's headshots and I think they turned out really well and Jackie was like, you need to be on LinkedIn and search for these people with bad headshots. Yeah, there's so many people with random pictures that they just cropped to make it look more professional and or they're pixely and weird. What was your photo and what made you? I literally took mine in my room. It's like up against the random wall but it was like the angle was all weird. Oh yeah, well I'm glad you got some new ones. I'll put them right here. Look how pretty my friend is. Look how cool this is. Also it's starting to rain out of nowhere. I'm not sure what's happening but I get this cloud. My home, it started raining out of nowhere and so I rushed home, took Sophie out really quick and got in the shower, did a little body bath action and now I have a FaceTime date scheduled with one of my best friends. Her name's Lara. If you guys are OGs, you remember her. She was my college roommate for two years, freshman and sophomore year. We met in summer B at UCF and she lives in New York. I literally haven't seen her since 2018 which is so crazy to say but I'm finally going to New York this year and I literally can't wait to see her and honestly even just go to New York so I'm going during like December to see all the Christmas lights and I'm so excited. I literally have no idea what to do though so if you guys have any recommendations, please let me know. I'm gonna hop on the FaceTime call. I swear every time we FaceTime each other it literally goes for hour, hour plus. I feel like it's been a long time since we last called each other so I know this one's gonna be a long one cause she just went to like France and there's just so many random things, big things happening in our lives so definitely wanna catch up with her. It's the OG, bestie. The OG. We're just talking about our five year plan and I'm about to vomit because she just said something about having children so baby. I literally want a baby by tomorrow. God bless. It's 10.51 at night and I randomly had like the weirdest urge to just like do a bunch of random things. So at first I started off by cleaning my beauty that I put a bunch of skincare on my face cause I feel like I'm having like weird dry patches and then like breaking out some places cause I'm literally getting my period so that makes sense. I'm just trying to like take care of it, prevent anything from happening and now I am going to sleep in this curler headband thing and my hair is not clean. I didn't wash it today but I'm kinda curious to see if it does anything cause my hair was like curled and it definitely fell cause I kept putting it in my claw clip. I'm gonna see but I'll keep you guys updated if it actually works out tomorrow with like just dry hair but honestly maybe I should like spray some kind of oh my God no some kind of like spray just make it like a tad bit wet I feel like that would be smart but I also really wanna put product in my hair we'll spray something. Okay we have two options one is the Playa's New Day Mist it's a three in one style refresh which honestly, wait it says smooths creases in restore style I had a phase where I was obsessed with this stuff and then this one is the Jizoo honey infused leave-in conditioner I think I might use this one cause I haven't used it in a while and I think it smells good. Yeah, yeah it does smell good. I feel like Playa products have this distinct like I think it's like a sauce what's it called? Something like with the beach like a salt spray almost I don't know I mean it doesn't smell like salt but it smells beachy I'm just gonna brush this out yeah I feel like it's not even that damp so like that'll be a good little bit I'm just gonna wrap it around and kind of just like take pieces of hair while I go and I think this is how you do it but I saw a TikTok and I was like gonna copy it cause I think it did it differently than me and I wanted to try it but now I can't find the damn TikTok I feel like that always happens when I wanna reference a TikTok it's not there for me this little curling ribbon comes with its own scrunchies so I can link this down below for you guys if you are interested in trying it out but disclaimer it definitely works better with actual like just cleaned hair but like at least a little bit more damp is what I'm trying to say but pro tip, don't take it out when it's still wet you can like hair dry it in the ribbon to make it a little bit more dry but whatever you do don't be impatient cause it does not look good when you take it out and your hair's still wet this is what it looks like when you're done and honestly it's not like too uncomfortable to sleep in I feel like that's probably the main question I get about this contraption guys it is Thursday and I am going to go to the grocery store I feel like I've been saying that for the past three days now I still have not been but today I actually do need to go because I am hosting like a little spooky Halloween movie night we're gonna watch Hocus Pocus 2 and we're gonna do a charcuterie board and probably like some other fun snacks I bought like some skeleton hands for the charcuterie board and then I'm also gonna make apple cider mimosas my sister made these one year for me and they were so good so I'm definitely gonna make those I already bought like the little champagne flutes I just got like disposable ones because I thought we were going to go to someone else's house and I didn't wanna bring like my whole champagne glass stuff but I'll just use that but I also need to just get like some random groceries I've been like really obsessed with orange juice lately and for the longest time one mean Ryan have lived in Austin for the past three years I feel like orange juice was never like the main thing that we bought like we always bought milk but not orange juice but as a kid I would always have orange juice growing up in the fridge so anyways, it's just like so refreshing and such a good drink to have with dinner or breakfast I don't know, I just really like it and I've been very sad without it I'm also very shocked that my hair turned out this good without it being clean or washed or like even wet because if you remember I sprayed that like new day mist in my hair but it wasn't even like that damp like I barely felt that it was wet when I put them in so I wonder if you even have to spray like anything on your hair but that's pretty insane if you guys don't have this curling ribbon I guess you could try it with like bathrobe like curls or whatever but it just like makes it easier cause it's just like one like sturdy thing I swear, I swear this is it like I don't have to do my hair today maybe touch it up later cause there's like some stragglers that are like straight but other than that, like I don't have to do my hair insane just put away my groceries and I'm freezing in my house but I'm literally needing to film so much content today it's not even funny but I don't even know if I'll be able to get to all of it today so it'll be split between like today, tomorrow, Saturday, Sunday, probably like I just I don't want to burn myself out and a lot of it's sponsored content that I want to get done before I go home next week anyway, so I got some pumpkins for tonight and that was not very expected it definitely was not on my grocery list but they were so cute and since I'm hosting tonight I just wanted some cute little pumpkins around and I got those like fake nude, neutral pumpkins but I feel like these are cute too so I couldn't not get them but I'm really, really excited about our movie night I actually asked my friend to bring over here like air mattress so we can make a day bed sort of thing but I think more girls are coming tonight than usual so hopefully it'll be like enough seating for everyone to be like super comfortable because I know if I'm watching a movie I don't want to be like sitting up straight on like just like a pillow if that makes sense but I am going to get ready I think I told you guys but my skin was acting up yesterday so I tried to moisturize and like slugged last night but I don't know if it really worked because I'm like I just always feel like my skin needs like so much extra hydration so I'm just gonna go do that and then we'll do our makeup I'm about to film a brand deal with Aerie and that is crazy to say because that brand was definitely on my list of like brands to work with so I'm doing a holiday campaign with them and I have my selects in this huge box I'm like out of breath from even carrying this thing but I'm gonna sort through them and we're gonna film it all today since this campaign is for the holidays they said like try to use props and at first I was like oh well like hold a present and like throw it out the camera and your girl needs to work on her wrapping skills cause I was just like oh I'll just hold it from the side right but like the corners look so stupid I don't even like and I wish I had a bow but I'm actually surprised I still have this wrapping paper around so that was actually clutch I don't think I'm gonna use that but look at what I did I put up the, what's this called? not a wreath I have no idea what this is oh garland okay yes I put up this garland and look how freaking cute that is I cannot wait for the day I have a house so I can have like a mantle and do all the decorations cause I feel like this just looks really really good hopefully nothing moves though because I'm planning on doing a video of me kind of like doing some transitions so really hoping the lighting stays the same that's why I'm trying to rush because I know when it gets later in the day it just gets so bright in here and like goes in and out, in and out so I'm trying to rush to film this so I can get it done the feeling after you shoot a brand deal or just like complete a project honestly just mark something off of your to-do list is the best feeling ever now I just have to edit the content but I already edited the reel really quick just to like see what the lighting was and if I had to refill it but it looks so so good and I just filmed the story so I'm done with that I was gonna film something else after this but I decided to like push it till tomorrow because it's baking and I actually wanted to bake it for tonight I just wanted to like bake banana bread it wasn't really a necessary contribution to tonight I thought it would just be like an extra thing because I have to bake anyways but I'm gonna say that till tomorrow because I don't wanna be super rushed today I still wanna make sure the house is clean before everyone comes and I also need to like edit this stuff because I have to submit tomorrow so we're doing good so happy that I got done and yeah now I'm gonna go clean the house I've been cleaning the house it looks so good and I think in the last clip I said something about my friend bringing over an air mattress so we have more seating but she actually forgot she lent it to someone already but I had the genius idea to take this cushion off because it's like one long cushion and I put it right there and just covered it with a bunch of blankets and look how freaking cozy this whole living room looks right now it's actually the first time I've opened my blinds since I put those curtains up so it's very bright in here which I love and the couch looks so comfy I fluffed it up and then here's that thing and then I have my little poof over there I'm gonna get some blankets out of here to put on the couch my friends are gonna be here any minute but I wanted to do a quick talk with that new trending sound it's like, what's your drink of choice? a Negroni and I'm making apple cider when most was today so I thought that would be a fun we'll take talk to Mink and I thought we could pop the champagne together since there's no friends around Sobie's here but oh, okay I'll get that later ready? Oh my God that's scary so much that was fast I thought that was gonna take me a lot longer okay, perfect I'm so excited for tonight guys it's just gonna be a cozy spooky night what's your drink of choice? a Negroni I was gonna say Negroni my Gliatto with Prosecco in it oh, stunning alright, let's do a taste test I did like a caramel with like cinnamon sugar on outside on the rim and my sister introduced me to this like I don't know if she made it for Christmas or what but they were so good so the sugar rim like makes it so much better and I also like this way better than orange juice mimosa I think orange juice was just well, I like orange juice on its own but orange juice mimosa were really ruined for me in college at Gasparilla because these frat boys would bring jugs of like a milk jug of orange juice mimosa disgusting oh my God I'm obsessed I just feel so skinny and she came festive we love that success the charcuterie board was so cute I did not realize that it was the Sanderson sisters that's why there were three breed cheeseheads and I thought that was so funny and the movie was actually really cute and funny I loved that they referenced so many modern things like I don't wanna give it away because it was just so funny to like see all that but definitely recommend watching it and if you haven't watched Hocus Pocus One which I feel like a lot of people in my life have not or like a couple of my friends literally just watched it this week because we were watching it or we were watching Hocus Pocus Two today and I remember last year I found out that Ryan had never watched Hocus Pocus One but it makes sense because I think he was like a Nickelodeon boy and I was very much a Disney Channel girl I don't love like cartoons so like I think Disney Channel was definitely like less cartoons but he loved SpongeBob why do I have like great volume right now? I felt like my hair was so greasy and I knew when I put it up in that half up it was like done for so I'm gonna definitely wash it tomorrow that's why I just got out my little hair serum Oh, yep, that's it the Debbie one and this is like probably what my third time using it but it feels really nice cause it's like a tea tree kind of thing and basically I told you guys in my other vlog but I just want my thick hair back, okay? We're trying to get the old Sonali hair back so we're trying to do whatever we can to revive it the last time I put this in my hair it did get pretty greasy or like not greasy but it just like didn't look like fresh I mean you could probably still like salvage it somehow it's not gonna look like the best but that's why I'm doing it like right before I wash my hair pretty much along like these parts is where, yeah like those spots and I feel like that's probably normal and I'm just like overthinking it but let's see, let's see if this magic potion works I just took Sophie out and she was like hunched back like she was like sniffing all around and like you know how like the Sanderson sisters literally walk like this I don't know why she was like literally giving me Sanderson sister vibes I was kind of getting spooked out there cause I was all alone and it was dark and creepy and this wasn't even like that scary of a movie I just like get like spooked out when I like watch a movie and I feel like I'm in the movie and then you know you get back into reality and then it's just spooky you know okay I think that should be good enough but I am gonna end the vlog for the night but I'll see you guys tomorrow morning happy Friday I'm just making some avocado toast this morning actually it's not morning it's just turn noon but I've just been working on my computer kind of trying to like plan out content for when I'm home just to know exactly what I need to like film before I leave but I'm really loving myself right now for cleaning up last night it wasn't like too much to clean but I love waking up to like a clean apartment so I'm glad I have the energy to do it last night after everyone left this morning I FaceTime'ed Ryan and he was showing me the fall leaves in Georgia I was getting so sad I was like I really hope that they still are on the trees when I go home which is like next week so they should be but they're like starting to fall I just like have a fear of them not being on the trees during Thanksgiving which is normally when I would go home for fall and I'll still be going home for Thanksgiving this year too but during that time the leaves have like already fallen off the trees I don't really get to enjoy you know like right when they turn we're just like the best time in Georgia honestly and I wanna make like a little fall bucket list so that me and Ryan can do like some cute things maybe like car pumpkins all of that kind of stuff this morning I also edited and submitted my content that I filmed yesterday and I was honestly already planning on being like ready for the day by this time but sometimes I'll get ready and like know I need to film a lot of stuff but it's not like planned out so I feel so overwhelmed so I think that like taking the time to plan it out really will like help me and just like make me feel a little bit more confident and just like ready to like you know knock it all out and kind of like check it off too as I go I was craving Mike's hot honey so we're gonna add this right after we add some salt I don't have any social plans today and it is Friday so I might just like make dinner at home I was gonna say order something but I definitely have food at home that I could be eating unless I'm like feeling really treat myself but me and my friends are actually going to get sushi out one of my favorite places, Soto if you guys are in Austin and you haven't been yet definitely go you definitely need a reservation unfortunately I feel like that's almost everywhere here in Austin which sucks I feel like you really can't be very spontaneous here because there's just so many people there are so many restaurants too so like that doesn't make sense in my mind but maybe there's just like so many people you know and not enough of like the really really good restaurants but I'm gonna enjoy my Mike's hot honey avocado toast and probably plan a little bit more I think I just wanna like finalize everything and then get ready for the day I picked out my face kind of a lot this week so there's kind of some scarring going on hopefully it fades fast but I wanted to show you guys what I ordered well I was trying to order it last night but I literally fell asleep on Amazon so this morning I ordered it like right when I woke up because my phone was like still you know open and it was on the Amazon page but basically I am like super inspired by some of these makeup to talks that I'm seeing and just the most recent one just had like some brown eyeliner or just like brown smudged eyeshadow so I got like so many random brown things brown eye things so this first one is the brow tint pen because I need a new eyebrow pen I don't think I really love the pencil that I'm using because it just makes it look like you know the block eyebrows that I used to do that weren't that cute so the pen one it definitely takes like more time because you have to like go slower and actually like literally draw on every single hair that you want but I had the Anastasia Beverly Hills one and I think this is like way cheaper so I just wanted to try it out and see if it's like you know comparable and then this one is the this one's the physician formula just like a brown eyeliner and then I've never really heard of this brand before but these looked really cool to me these two are from Jewel Beauty and they're the eyeshadow 101 I got one like in the shimmer color and one in a matte color it's a lot later than I expected to get ready today but luckily I don't have any plans tonight so if I had to like film until sunset I am able to okay so I guess this one is the shimmer color and it's like in a dark brown it's pretty barely shimmery but it's still pretty and I feel like that can like look really nice smudged out and then this is ginger matte a lighter brown shade can you see that? I feel like that's more of like a gray I don't know how good that's gonna look on my eyes hmm I don't know if I look at that one but I do like the darker one because I feel like that will look really really pretty just like a smudge smoky eye so I'm gonna play around with all these products while I get ready and probably watch the YouTube video while I do it here's how the makeup turned out I don't really love those like eyeshadow sticks I feel like they did not really work like I wanted them to so that's really sad the next brow pen like the tip wasn't working like I wanted it to and the eyeliner was like a little too light brown like I wish it was more pigmented I think I wish that to the next one so that was kind of a fail but it's okay my makeup still turned out so good kind of just practicing some more full glam looks especially with the two de-volume events that I have coming up I am done I filmed my Abercrombie haul and I wanted to film an Abercrombie and a skin tall today but guys there's just no time the sun is setting and I don't wanna be rushed even more than I just was cause that was very stressful I did a YouTube video I filmed myself for like thumbnails cause I was thinking maybe like taking photos on the camera would just take way too much time so I'm hoping that the video quality is gonna be good enough so I can like cut myself out and insert me into the thumbnail and then on my phone I did one TikTok actually a bunch of TikToks but one TikTok in app with a sound I did one like talking try on haul I did like a keep and return little video thing I took photos of everything in the LensBuddy app and then I also took videos of just like me posing and not talking it's honestly just a lot to remember for each outfit cause you don't wanna like miss something and it not be like super completed so I'm very, very happy that I got that done and I guess I'll just have to film the skims one tomorrow but we're getting shit done and that's all I care about because that list that I made this morning is extensive and it's stressing me the frick out best thing about getting that Abercrombie haul done is that my room can finally be cleaned because literally I opened the package and everything was everywhere since Ryan was here which was like I don't know two weeks ago so my room has been a disaster for two weeks and I don't know why I didn't film it like earlier or sooner but I probably should have but anyways I wanna do a little unboxing because Lancer Skincare sent me over some products to try Lancer is like such a bougie skincare company and I actually did a brand deal with them but it was just kind of to show their online like lab it was actually really cool you could see what specific products do for you so for example if there was like hyaluronic acid in my Charlotte Tilbury cleanser I don't even know but if there was that in that cleanser I could look it up on their platform and it could tell me like oh it's like super hydrating and it does this and this and this so I thought that was really cool but anyways the first time I heard about Lancer is from Olivia Jade when she did her like luxurious Christmas hauls I swear she like always got Lancer Skincare products so I'm super super excited to try this okay so this is like the method I guess is their like skincare regimen so we got like a polish, a cleanse, nourish and then a soothing hydrate this is a Lipton Plump sheet mask ooh I love a good sheet mask these are triple peptide drops that sounds really cool I feel like ever since I got the Haley Bieber like road lip peptide something something which I am obsessed with by the way I have the unscented and the birthday cake one it was a birthday cake yeah oh my god I'm like wait no I think it was salted caramel kinda smells the same but it smells so good I'm like legit addicted to smelling it so highly recommend that but anyways now that I have seen like that peptide thing and I really like the lip gloss every time I see peptide I'm like ooh I'm gonna like this so very excited to try all of these Lancer products I have another package from Lululemon that I purchased after seeing just like literally two seconds of a TikTok guys I need to get better about that like have a little bit more willpower but it's almost like if I see a product one time and then it's that second time I see it for like two seconds I'm like yep that was my sign I need it I'm gonna get it let's go to Lululemon site and buy it so this is the Define jacket I believe but this one is the ribbed one and I saw a video of like the tan color and of course it was a girl in Australia cause she's just like stunning and I feel like every stunning girl ever is from either UK or Australia I don't know why don't ask me why but I literally every time I see someone on my explore page with like the sheikest outfit UK every time I see someone with like the most amazing body Australia anyways this girl was wearing this but in tan color and I found out that you could only purchase the tan color on the Australian website on Lululemon so I was literally willing to pay like up to $50 for shipping because I was that obsessed with it but I couldn't even like put in my own address so anyways I settled on the black even though I don't really wear black that much but I can always return it if I like don't really love it and I'm not really sure if like the jacket's gonna come out in tan in the US like soon or what I don't even know how long this like specific style of jacket has been on the site I mean I know this is like a version of the divine jacket if I'm not mistaken but it's the Lulule ribbed something or another okay I'm loving it so far I did think it was gonna be like a little bit more thicker just really snatch me in but I've heard this gives a really nice BBL effect so let's zip it up and see I love a good thumb hole okay this is really cute I like it but the thing is I just don't wear black all the time I guess I'm gonna have to start wait this is so cute also I need to get pearl earrings because I used to wear my pearl earrings like pearl studs all the time and they were so just like classy I feel like they would look really cute with this I feel like I'm seeing like a reflection on my gold earrings and it's reminding me of like pearls anyways okay I like it I think I'm gonna keep it and we'll just have to wear black a little bit more often I am kind of getting to the point where I don't wanna talk to anyone anymore and like take off my makeup I'm also having this weird situation around my mouth where it's like so dry and like I don't know it's like cakey which I feel like it's only happened in the past week and usually it's not like this cakey I'm trying to think of like the products I use I kind of like started using a setting spray so maybe that could be it or is my skin just like all of a sudden really dry because like close up you can really see like the lines on my smile lines what do I do please makeup experts help a girl out dinner is served I just did a chicken rice bowl and I use my favorite chicken taco seasoning for the chicken and usually I would like air fry the chicken or just like bake it but I remember this one time Ryan really, really liked the chicken and it was in the pressure cooker, the instant pot so I did that and I accidentally burned it so I totally forgot how to even fricking use that thing but now I know I finished dinner and I'm just watching the Kardashians now I did my skincare and I'm probably gonna go to bed pretty early I cleaned the kitchen a little bit and tomorrow I'm gonna work on just like putting all the clothes away I don't think I have that much energy to do it tonight unfortunately, but it'll get done and I'm so excited for you guys to see both of the Abercrombie Hall and the Skims Hall that I should be posting within the next two weeks so keep your eyes peeled for that and if you guys want to see more real time content you can follow me on TikTok and Instagram I'll have them right here it is just so underscoring Arley without the G I will see you guys at my next vlog Bye
