Petite Impact

Is the weekend already over? I dread Sunday nights but at least this weekend was productive. Cleaned up the laundry area and managed to get some exercising in. Back in February I turned 40 (and finally managed to get my first pull up), which made me start to think how I can stay healthy and one of the things I came across in my research was collagen. Apparently, collagen production plateaus in our mid to late 20s. Then after that the body produces about 1% less every year, which is why we humans start to age. Which lead me to start taking collagen supplements and made me curious about bone broth. Bone broth has been around but it really blew up in the past few years. I decided to look into it and tried a few different brands from the supermarket and Target. The one brand I really liked and had the most flavor is Kettle & Fire . I initially tried the Classic Chicken and liked it, if you enjoy soup, this is basically soup in a cup. Bone broth is high in protein (10 grams) and high in

  Is it Monday already? I've been decluttering and decided to start new with my make up collection. A couple of weeks ago I purchased  Caviar Eyeshadow Sticks and now I've added two new lip balms. I've finally realized in my 30s that I'm not a lipstick girl, I prefer tinted/sheer lip balms. Anyone else? I'm a fan of Tom Ford's Soleil lip foils (I don't think they're in production anymore), and when I saw Soleil Balm Frost Lip Balm, I had to try it! Just look at this amazing packaging. It's definitely the most luxe lip balm ever. I also purchased a tube of Ilia's hydrating tinted lip balm in Memoir after reading all the rave reviews. I definitely noticed that Tom Ford is literally double the price of Ilia. 😅 Tom Ford's packaging is so shiny you can use it as a mirror. Ilia looks more like the traditional lip balm tube similar to chapstick. I went with Memoir which is a neutral mauve color. The first swipe is pretty sheer. The more you layer

  Happy Friday! It's also July. I can't believe it. Was it just me or did June fly by? Pride month just wrapped up and this Coach bag was part of their 2021 Pride Collection. This is a super cute rainbow quilted clutch that feels as soft as it looks. It reminds me of those puffy jackets I used to have back in the day where I just want to squeeze it! 😆 I ordered this from Coach because I just had to see it in person.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall.  This bag is small, and it's definitely on the tiny side. It's best used as a clutch for a fun night out. I would not want to use this bag as an everyday bag. The inside is just too tiny to fit everything I need everyday. The dimensions are 8 inches wide by 4.5 inches high and 3 inches deep. The rainbow colors are not quite as vibrant as I thought they would be. They almost look a little bit pastel in these photos. The red is more of a magenta and the purple is kind of a medium lavender. So if you're looking

Is it Friday already?? Three more days until I head back home. I miss my furbabies! I'm always worried that they will forget about me. I FaceTimed them tonight and they couldn't care less. Although apparently my voice sounds different over the speakers, so maybe that's why? I'm also trying not to think about how many hundreds (maybe thousand?) of emails I'll have waiting for me at work. 😖  Apologies for not having a normal Fit Review Friday! I do have a ton of stuff waiting in Atlanta to photograph. I should have a decent review up next Friday. Today I have a review of DeMellier Mini Los Angeles bag in the gorgeous teal color, which is unfortunately sold out now. I saw a few celebs carrying this bag and it piqued my interest. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall.  Irina Shayk carrying the Mini Los Angeles in black. DeMellier The Mini Los Angeles This mini bag is super cute and the size is definitely small. It can fit about as much as my Everywhere Belt Bag
