Weekly Notables

January 24, 2020 · In: Lifestyle

This week has been a crazy one, y’all! I felt like I had zero time to just take a minute and chill. Honestly, I barely had time to write this blog post in time for the weekend lol. But next week things will finally slow down and I’m excited to be able to take some time to do things that aren’t work or school related.

Click here to see my previous weekly notables, and let’s get into this week’s post!

//one//
Lilly Pulitzer’s Valentine’s Day Collection

Lilly released TWO Valentine’s day prints this year, along with some great jewelry and accessories. I am obsessed with this collection, and I already bought myself one of the dresses. Check out my Like To Know It to see my try-ons from earlier this week, or check out my “Try Ons” story highlight on Instagram. I ended up snagging the Kayla Stretch Dress in Love You Bunches, but I also really want to get the Resort Scarf in Lilac You A Lot.

Lunch Time

If you read last week’s weekly notables, you know that I started working at Gatorlillys in Winter Garden. That being said, I’ve had to start packing my lunches again! I’ve legit been obsessed with those Starkist tuna packets you can get for like $1 at the grocery store. My personal favorite flavors are jalapeño and herb & garlic. I eat them on Trader Joe’s Pita Chips and have some fruit on the side. A great lunch that is quick, easy, and affordable!

Caloosa WaterWear’s Latest Collections

If y’all didn’t know already, I am a brand rep for Caloosa WaterWear! This week they came out with two new collections, along with some other fun pieces. They have a great Valentine’s Day collection titled Love is in the Air, as well as their Coastal Cruise Collection. I love their pieces because they feature beautiful artwork and they’re UPF, so your skin is protected from the sun and moisture is wicked away. I personally love wearing them to work out and to the Disney Parks. You can use code JAYME20 to get 20% off your purchase!

Shark Tales: How I Turned $1,000 into a Billion Dollar Business

I’ve read two books this month! Who am I?! If you want to see what other book I read in January, see this weekly notables post. Also, stay tuned because I will be doing a blog post on what I read this month! Shark Tales is by none other than real estate mogul Barbara Corcoran. You’d probably recognize her from the TV Show Shark Tank. I got Grant this book for Christmas since he’s always asking for business books. I really didn’t know we’d both enjoy it a lot! It’s part memoir, part business advice. Easy to read, and very interesting if you’re interested in business or a fan of Shark Tank. I could write so much more about this book, but I’ll save that for a future post 😉

Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend

We are officially less than a month out from DPHMW 2020! I really cannot believe it is so close, and that this will be my FIFTH YEAR running! Let me know if y’all wanna see any posts leading up to the weekend, including questions you may have. Also, be sure to check out my YouTube channel since I did a whole series on the race weekend last year! The information is still relevant and helpful.

Cheers!

xoxo

💫My Short Review of Epic Universe💫 *as a Dis 💫My Short Review of Epic Universe💫
*as a Disney annual passholder*
(blog post & YouTube video coming soon)

‼️TLDR: Overall it was as chaotic as I expected so I was neither impressed nor disappointed. However I’m unsure how things will suddenly be running smoothly at the opening that’s just 2 weeks away.

✨I’ll start with our highlight which was mainly Super Nintendo World! I was a big Nintendo kid so this was very anticipated for me. While the rides were meh the land is extremely immersive. I do wish we had more time to explore the games you can play with the power up bands! 

🍔As for food we didn’t eat a ton but had lunch at Oak & Star Tavern (BBQ) which was much better than I expected! Not the best theme park food I’ve ever had but definitely better than anything I’ve had at Universal in the past. We also got a frozen melon apple drink in Nintendo that was perfect for a hot day!

🐉Isle of Berk was cool overall but for such a niche IP I wasn’t really interested. The one ride we rode in the land - Hiccup’s Wing Gliders - ended up being our favorite!

🧟‍♂️Dark Universe was a tad underwhelming. I was really looking forward to it but it didn’t really do it for me. At night it was cool but the ride wasn’t as good as I was expecting. I’ve heard quotes that this is the “most technologically advanced ride in the world” and that’s simply not true. However the ride wasn’t as scary as I thought it would be!

🇫🇷Magical Paris was neat despite me not being a Harry Potter fan. It really felt like Paris! However the lack of attractions there is a huge problem. 

🎢Despite it being technical rehearsals to me does not justify the amount of rides that were either completely shut down or broke at some point. Only 2 attractions in the entire park had zero issues all day. We rode 4 attractions since everything else was closed (2 would’ve caused motion sickness). I don’t see how these will magically be working in 2 weeks. The closures caused long wait time and chaos in every aspect. At opening they had no system for filtering people into queues in a reasonable manner. Something Disney figured out decades ago. 

Glad we went and experienced something new! #epicuniverse

Spring has sprung🌸 I snagged this iconic tweed Spring has sprung🌸

I snagged this iconic tweed jacket from @lillypulitzer most recent sale and I’m obsessed - I got the matching dress and can’t wait to wear it as a set💚 

I’m also loving this belt from @jmclaughlin 🤍 As someone who struggles to find belts curated to my style when I saw this I fell in love. I finally snagged it in Newport Beach a few weeks ago and I’m obsessed! It truly elevates every look👏🏼
