Wow, it’s the first Friday Favorites of June, can you believe it? Summer is HERE! (OK, I know that technically, summer doesn’t start until mid-June, but I’m declaring it summer, NOW!) In the spirit of the season, I’m getting a little hair refresh today. You should definitely head on over to Snapchat to follow along! (Plus, you’ll be the first to see my new ‘do!) If you aren’t already following along, my username is stephaniepernas.
So, I decided that since it’s the beginning of a new month, I’d share some of my May favorites!
What I’m Watching…
It’s that time of year again! I’m re-watching Gossip Girl for, like, the third time. I like to re-watch the show once every couple of years. I actually have THE worst memory in history, which actually works in my favor. I can re-watch some of my favorite shows and it’s sometimes almost like the first time lol! There are shows exempt from this, of course, like Friends or Sex and the City, which I can probably quote from memory. Summer TV is so lame… everything goes on hiatus! I kind of can’t wait for the fall tv season! (Between you and me, I’m totes excited for Riverdale!) If you have any great suggestions on shows to watch, let me know!
What I’m Reading…
Right now, still working on book 5 of the Outlander series. Which, btw, woof. Each book is 1500 pages!!! YES. 1500. The first three books I’d say were REALLY GOOD… the fourth and fifth ones… I don’t know, guys. I’m plowing through, because, I committed and obvi need to know what happens! If you watch the show, just know…. they’re only on book 2! I heard last week the show was renewed for season 3 and 4, so that’s great news!
I always have a pretty extensive reading list lined up, and summer is such a great time for new books! Here are a few books on my to-read list:
Favorite Posts in May…
I have to say, this month, I think I shared some of my favorite posts ever! So many cute looks. (Clearly I was feeling a black and white moment, huh?!)

Favorite Beauty Products in May…

By the way… you may not have noticed, but there are a few subtle changes to the blog and I wanted to make sure you had noticed the features!
First of all, if you want to shop my Instagram without signing up for Like to Know.it (which, honestly, you should still sign up for LTKit, it’s just so easy!) you can head over to this page and just click on the picture to shop. It’s super easy, and you don’t have to sign up for anything at all. You can also shop my Instagram by clicking on the pictures in my sidebar!
The second thing is that I’ve updated my Shops in the top menu bar! You can shop my favorite under $100 faves, my wishlist, my beauty bag, my closet, and my vacay picks!
Hope you’ll check out and take advantage of these new features. BTW– I always love to hear what you want to see here on the blog! Let me know in the comments.
I linked up with these gals this week!! Check ’em out!
PS: It’s National Donut Day!! Make sure you get your free donut at Krispy Kreme or Dunkin’ Donuts 😉 Have a great weekend, loves! Thanks for reading.
