My 5 Favorite Things That Made March More Fun

Can you believe that March is wrapping up, and that April is almost here? I know I’m struggling with that idea! March was a busy month for me. We had Girl Scout Cookie booths every weekend, birthday parties, appointments…the list goes on forever most days. But in all of that craziness I found a few things to make my life more enjoyable. What were my favorite things from March? Read on below to find out!

Favorite Hair Product: Alure Three Barrel Curling Iron Wand

My 5 Favorite Things That Made March More Fun: Favorite Hair Product
I love this Alure Three Barrel Curling Iron Wand!

The Alure Three Barrel Curling Iron tops the list of my favorite things from March for a few reasons. For one, it has been a game changer on days that I want something “different” for my hair. I have straight hair that gets greasy pretty quick. As a mom I need hairstyles that are quick, easy, and that don’t make my hair look greased out in a matter of hours. This three barrel curling iron checks all of those boxes and more. It gives my hair bounce and life that lasts for days. It does get pretty hot, so to avoid damage to my hair I pair it with the Redken Iron Shape 11 Thermal Holding Spray.

Favorite Beauty Product: Dashing Diva Gloss Ultra Shine Gel Palette

Beauty Product
So many fun colors and designs!

I’m not the girliest person in the world, but I do like to use things that make me feel girly every now and then. The Dashing Diva Glass Ultra Shine Gel Palette is one of those things. This product made it to my list of favorite things in March because of it’s quick application and beautiful designs. As a mother that is always on the go, I don’t often have time to go to the nail salon. The Dashing Diva sets are so easy to apply, and I can do it right at home. If you check out their website, you will find that they have a lot of different designs and colors. If you like simple nails, awesome! They definitely have something for you. If you want more of a design and details, they have those, too. If you haven’t used Dashing Diva yet, you’re missing out!

My favorite new spot: Amelie’s French Bakery and Cafe

It should come as no surprise that Amelie’s French Bakery and Cafe has found a spot on my list of favorite things from March. If you saw my article about Amelie’s earlier this month then you know how much I love their cafe. As a Charlotte, North Carolina newbie, it’s a great feeling to know that I found a place that I really love. Their food and pastries are amazing. Their coffee is delicious. I love the vibe and atmosphere of their place. They also get bonus points because they’re right down the street from my therapist. I know that I have a lot more cafes and coffee shops to explore in Charlotte, but Amelie’s definitely sets the bar high!

Favorite Drink: Kombucha (Of All Kinds!)

My 5 Favorite Things that Made March More Fun: Favorite Drink
This is just one of the many kinds of kombucha that I’ve tried.

I started drinking kombucha earlier this year. I am a person that struggles with gut health and other annoying health issues. Kombucha has been a big help. When I first started drinking it, my husband was kind of grossed out. Despite how “ick” it may sound to some, it actually tastes really good. With all different kinds, flavors and brands out there, you are bound to find one you like. The greatest part about this favorite thing of mine is that it’s good for you! There are so many articles out there, such as this one from Women’s Health Magazine, that explain the health benefits of kombucha. While it might not be a cure-all for your gut, it will definitely help the healing process.

Favorite New Piece of Technology: Google Pixel 7

Favorite Things: Google Pixel 7
I took this beautiful picture with my Google Pixel 7.

Okay, so I don’t get new technology often. And I am definitely not a tech expert. But I am loving my new Google Pixel 7 so much that I wanted to put it on my list of my favorite things from March. I had no intention of getting a new phone, but my husband informed me that my old phone was no longer supported with updates. Bummer! I had a Google Pixel 3 before getting the Google Pixel 7. My favorite feature? The camera! The pictures that I take with this phone are incredible. They’re clear, there are so many editing options, and there are plenty of other fun features. If you’re in the market for a new phone I highly suggest you check out the Google Pixel 7. You can buy them unlocked, too, so that you can switch carriers whenever needed without having to buy a new phone.
