WEEK IN MY LIFE 🤍 seeing my custom wedding dress for the first time & hidden Austin swim spot
Watch on YouTubeVideo summary
The vlogger begins her week by sharing the exciting milestone of seeing her custom-made wedding dress for the first time in Austin after working with a local designer who sourced materials from India. She expresses relief that she is not feeling overwhelmed despite being new to the entire planning process, noting that her timeline feels manageable thanks to reassurance from their full-service planner and upcoming tastings in Cabo. Although she initially intended to film a reveal video for YouTube, she reveals that filming was canceled because the dress's intricate beading makes it impossible to show off fully yet; instead, she plans to wait until November before sharing those details with her audience. She also discusses the logistical challenge of altering an outfit she brought back from India, as shipping costs and alteration fees are high for such a delicate piece, leading her to consider bringing it into the bridal shop or potentially sewing adjustments herself later.
Later in the week, Sali steps out of her comfort zone by wearing a pink slinky dress to attend a creator event hosted by Pixie Beauty, where she tries on products and experiments with new makeup techniques for an upcoming Ariana Grande concert performance. She shares nostalgic memories from attending one of Ariana's concerts back in 2015 before getting ready again at home, applying eye patches, false lashes, and her favorite fragrances while preparing to meet friends for dinner and a pop-up event featuring RM Beauty products. The night turns into an adventure when she gets lost trying to find the specific location but ultimately enjoys delicious sushi cocktails with her friend Ria, praising both the food and the experience despite feeling slightly rushed due to heat concerns at the venue.
On Sunday morning, Sali starts her day with a Bird's Eye biscuit breakfast—a favorite hangover cure—and spends time connecting with family via FaceTime while celebrating her father's 60th birthday in St. Tropez. She then dedicates part of her afternoon to gardening and house maintenance, showcasing her thriving vegetable garden filled with okra, cucumbers, melons, squash, and sunflowers that have taken over Austin this summer. While some plants like roses struggle under the heat despite fertilization efforts, others flourish beautifully, creating a stunning natural backdrop around their pool which occasionally turns green from fallen petals requiring extra chlorine treatment.
The day concludes with an adventurous outing to explore Blink Falls at Creek, a hidden swimming spot near North Lamar that offers easy access to nature without needing a long hike. Sali and her partner enjoy the cool water surrounded by butterflies while keeping music contained within their small group bubble out of respect for others nearby. Throughout the vlog, she reflects on how much she has grown since starting YouTube years ago, embracing new challenges like trying bold makeup looks or venturing into unfamiliar locations, all while maintaining a grounded perspective that balances excitement with practical problem-solving in her daily life and wedding preparations.

Hey y'all. What's up? My name is Sali.
Welcome to a new vlog. I am so excited
for today because I am going to see my
wedding dress for the first time ever
technically because I'm pretty much
getting it custom made here in Austin. I
found this amazing designer. I tried on
one of her pieces and I was like, "Okay,
I think this is like the silhouette I
want to go for and we're pretty much
going to make it similar to that dress,
but then we're going to like customize
it to perfection." And today is like the
first day that I'm going to really see
like the structure of what they came up
with. I'm not exactly sure what the
progress is, so I'm very curious to see.
But I just feel like everything with the
wedding is kind of starting to really
happen because in I think two weekends
I'll be in Cabo for our wedding
tastings, my makeup and hair trial, and
then just like the walkthroughs of the
venue. This whole time I haven't really
been super stressed out, and like I felt
stressed because I wasn't stressed, if
that makes sense. I've never done this
before, so I don't really know what the
timeline should really look like. I
mean, we do have a full service planner,
and they reassured us. They were like,
"We are on a good timeline. Like, don't
worry." And so, I feel like once I
actually go to Cabo, everything's really
going to feel real. And I'm like a
little nervous for that because I feel
like it's going to feel really
overwhelming. But, nonetheless, I'm
really excited for it to all happen. in.
So, I got my bridal white on, my bridal
glam because I feel like if I am in my
wedding dress, like I couldn't come here
with no makeup otherwise. That would be
bad. Like, I would be like hating the
dress. The material of my dress came
straight from India, which is so cool to
me because a lot of my other wedding
weekend looks from India. In December,
we went wedding shopping in India and I
just will always cherish that moment and
just like experience because my dad got
to take me and Ryan and I hadn't been to
India in like 12 years. So, it was
really really cool to see with obviously
my fiance and just like in my adult eyes
cuz I feel like I appreciate things so
much more now. That being said, I did go
to India in December and I started my
GOP1 journey in September. And so, by
that time when I went to India, I hadn't
lost all the weight that I did lose,
which is amazing. But I went in with
like my measurements that I had in
December, obviously. And one of my
Indian outfits are actually still in
India because I was like, you know what,
let's keep it there and let's wait till
June so I can give you my new
measurements because I knew I was going
to like lose a little bit more weight.
Um, but one of the Indian outfits, they
just like shipped it off and I was like,
shoot, like I should have done that with
this one. But I have it right here. So,
I think I'm just going to bring it into
the bridal shop and see how much they
would charge me to get that altered
because it is a little bit loose in the
back. And just like the skirt in
general, there's a good amount of space
that I feel like I should tighten. But
it is a fully beaded piece, so I can't
just really take it anywhere. So, I'm
really hoping that they can help me out
cuz obviously they work with like beaded
fabrics and lace and all of that. I am
filming a whole YouTube video on my
dress reveal and like the whole process.
So, I'm going to bring my camera in and
take a couple of clips for that.
I fully went into that dress appointment
thinking I was going to film for YouTube
and then I realized like I can't show
you guys my dress. So, I'm so sorry. You
will not be seeing that until November.
But it went so well. I cannot even
believe that's my wedding dress cuz my
waist is non-existent, which is exactly
what I wanted. And I'm so happy I went
the custom route. If you guys are
looking for a wedding dress in Austin,
you just don't find anything that you
like, just know that she is there doing
custom wedding dresses for like actually
a good price. I honestly thought custom
would be an astronomical price just like
everything else in this wedding
industry. But she does all the
alterations. So like that's all included
in the price. And I remember shopping at
more affordable wedding dress stores and
finding out the alterations are like
double what the wedding dress would have
costed. So anyways, I highly recommend
going to her if you guys are in Austin.
I did get a smoothie king smoothie
because I wanted a little like sweet
treat pickme up. I brought in a Lani new
with me in a cooler, but I don't know if
I really need like that much energy.
Like it is like at the end of the day,
I'm actually going to head to a happy
hour with my friends um at Nomad. I've
been wanting to try their newest taco
happy hour and that's at 5:00. It's like
almost 4:00. So I think I'm just going
to go straight there and like edit on my
phone. I always have to do on my
phone. Also, I forgot to tell you guys
that she was able to alter my langa, but
it's costing so much because it's like
beaded and like so intricate and she has
to like pull the zipper out and yeah,
I'm so mad that I didn't just like leave
it in India for a while. But, you know,
lesson learned. I did do that with one
of my outfits. So, I just gave him my
updated measurements and hopefully he'll
be shipping that soon. Now I can enjoy
my little sweet treat.
I always get angel food at Smoothie
King. So yum.
>> Back in town. Cheers. Cheers.
>> Don't ever leave us again. UL.
>> Hello. Happy Friday. I am headed off to
another content creator event. I feel
like there's been so much happening in
Austin, which is kind of odd because I
feel like summer is usually very slow
with creator events. Like spring is
really when it is like crazy, especially
with Southby. But I love going to
creator events cuz I get to see my
creator friends and obviously we get to
try out new products. So today's event
is with Pixie Beauty, hence why I'm
wearing Pixie Pink. They said to wear
like pinks and greens and pastels and
creams. I went with this stunning pink
slinky dress. It is a little outside of
my comfort zone, but I'm trying to push
myself a little bit more. So here's the
full body. And then of course I'm
wearing my Freya bag like always. You
guys know I love my pressons, but
yesterday I decided to paint my nails
with actual nail polish. And I just got
this brand in London Town. And I've
never heard of it before, but I really
love the formula of these. I think
they're well known for their nail
concealer. And honestly, I need that.
And it's so nice to have short nails
after having long nails for so long.
Made it to South Congress, but I did
fall like right when I got out of my
car. And it was on concrete, so that was
fun.
>> Show your outfit.
>> Madison the label. Zara.
>> Yeah.
>> Cute.
>> I think this is Lola shoes are Dolce.
>> Ria casually was like, "Yeah, it was
just in the bottom of my closet like
Is it?
>> Good morning, y'all. Today we are up
bright and early on a Saturday because
I'm taking pictures of my friend Caitlyn
and her whole family. I've just been
wanting to shoot more. So I've been
reaching out to a couple of friends to
just like offer them free photos. And
all of them are like, I'm so happy that
you reached out. Like we haven't had
photos done in so long. So it makes me
happy that I can provide like something
of value and like obviously get some
content for my own photography because
right now not a lot of people want to be
outside shooting in the heat, which I
totally understand. So that is why we're
shooting at 7:30. Honestly, I would have
done earlier, but she has a baby and so
we got to work around Carmen. I did get
here 10 minutes earlier, so I want to
knock out a few Tik Toks for my
photography account. And I also need to
show you guys these sunflowers. They're
absolutely insane. And I really only
come here during like the fall and
winter. I don't shoot here very often
cuz it is kind of far from my house. I
only see it when it's not very green.
It's just like dry brush. But like
sunflowers have taken over Austin in
general, but also this field. It's
insane. I'm so excited.
>> Senali's literally the bestest of the
best. We're getting fam photos.
She's literally incredible. She's been
holding a bee in the middle of the
sunflowers so Carmen can smile.
Dedicated.
>> Look at all these sunflowers. It's
actually insane.
They are taking over Austin this summer.
And I'm not mad about it. And lift it up
high.
I don't know what you guys are doing,
but I don't care.
>> I told myself if the domain is like 30
minutes away, I would make the drive,
and it was. And it only opened at 10:00
anyway, so it's perfect timing. It
literally just turned 10:00. And I'm
going to go into Zara and maybe H&M.
Hopefully, I just have to hit up Zara
and then I can go home. But I want to
find an outfit for Ariana Grande. Like I
want to dress up a little bit cuter and
like maybe some sparkles. I don't really
have like a ton at home especially cuz
I've like lost a good amount of weight.
A lot of things don't fit me anymore. I
do rent my clothes and I tried to find
something on Newi and I'm also going to
Cabo next weekend. Is it the next
weekend? No, the weekend after that. So
I tried to get like more Cabo outfits.
So let's hope I find something really
good at Zara.
It is currently 1:30. I did find a top
at Zara. I got a few more things, just
like two basic t-shirts and like a
little sweatshirt, like a thin
sweatshirt. But, um, the top, like, it's
it's great. It's beautiful. And I feel
like I can dress it up maybe with
bottoms, but like I said, the bottoms
that I have in mind, I think are a
little bit big. And I don't love like
low-waisted things. Otherwise, I could
like pull it off that way. But I don't
know. Should I sew it? Like I literally
have a sewing machine. Should I
literally tailor my clothes? Like I feel
like this is why I got a sewing machine,
but I don't know if it I'm like
obviously not to that level at all yet.
So it might look a little botch, but I
might try. So I'm getting ready. It's
1:30 just cuz I feel like every time I
want to film my makeup or just film in
general while I'm getting ready, it
takes so long and I'm always so rushed
and I don't want to be rushed today. So,
we are chilling, relaxing, getting ready
for Ariana Grande. I'm so excited. When
I first got invited, I was like, shoot,
do I even know this new album and then
I've been listening to it a little bit.
And thank God for Tik Tok cuz I feel
like I do know a good amount of the
songs, at least like the choruses. Um,
but I'm trying out new eye mask today,
Pixie Beauty. This is the um detoxify
deeppuffing eye patches. I just want a
little extra, you know, hydration on my
face tonight so my makeup can lay so
beautifully. I'm gonna like slay my
makeup. Let's manifest a good makeup
day. My friend Ria is going all out with
her makeup. So, I'm inspired. I feel
like I I might do a little eyeliner
tonight. We might get a little crazy,
but I just went through on my TikTok and
saved a ton of transitions. So, I think
I'm going to film at least like two
transitions and see which one turns out
better. Or I mean, maybe I'll post both.
We'll see. You guys, how do I wear eye
patches so that they don't slide down?
Okay, maybe that actually feels better
right there. Like a little bit more off
to the side and not all the way up on my
nose. I don't know if I mentioned this,
but I'm going to Ariana Grande with RM
Beauty, which is Ariana Grande's makeup
brand. I believe they sell it at Ulta.
And I am so excited to hopefully get
some goodies tonight. So, I don't think
I've ever tried anything from, but I've
heard really, really good things. And
like, that's crazy. Like I was invited
by Ariana Grande's makeup brand. And I
feel like this is just so full circle
because when I was first starting off on
YouTube, I went to an Ariana Grande
concert and filmed a whole get ready
with me. The makeup, the eyeshadow goes
insane back then. It was like right
before I went into college. So that was
like I think 2015. I went with my friend
Annie and we had the time of our life. I
remember this dad that was sitting right
next to us bought us both cotton candies
cuz he like just took his daughter and
that was so nice. I'll never forget
that. But we actually were like pretty
up there. Like it was so amazing. And
like I love Ariana Grande's old songs
like Honeymoon Avenue, that kind of
vibe. Love, love, love. Sometimes if I'm
in my fields, I'll just like put it on
and like belt out in my car. I also did
a whole music video kind of Ariana
Grande style. I literally bought a green
screen for this video and I can't find
it anywhere. I for sure deleted it off
my channel, which I am so stupid. I
should have just like archived it so no
one could see it but me. But obviously I
didn't think about my future self
wanting to actually see the cringiness
of that video. But now I'm so bummed
because now I feel like I can like laugh
at my cringey old self. Low key it
really doesn't get less cringey. I feel
cringey every single day. So if you want
to start posting content like I'm sorry
to say this, but it doesn't get any less
cringey. So you might as well start
today. I currently have literally every
one of my electronics on the charger
right now. I got my little ring light,
my portable ring light, my fan. I just
bought like a new fan because I wanted
something really powerful. So,
apparently, everyone's been super hot.
There's already been two shows on
Wednesday and yesterday was her birthday
show. Both nights were so hot.
Apparently, usually Moody is pretty
cold. I remember I went to see Bad Bunny
and like the brand got us sweatshirts
and we were all in our sweatshirts
totally comfortable. But apparently it's
been just so crazy hot because word on
the street is that she requests it to be
76°. I don't know what it was for her
vocal cords. And I'm just like
hopefully I don't sweat too much. Like
hopefully I'm prepared enough with fans.
I might actually bring two cuz I just
like don't love sweating. I mean, if
it's outside, like that's fine. But if
I'm sweating indoors where you literally
have AC and it's just like not turned
on, I will just be so irritated and I
like don't want that to happen. Like
obviously I want to enjoy myself. So, we
are going to be as prepared as we can
get. Phone's on the charger, cameras on
the charger, charging everything up for
tonight. You know, the eye look I was
just talking about. I think we're going
for it. You know, a little throwback to
the reddish brown eye makeup that I used
to do. I loved a reddish brown. I still
like the terracotta on my cheeks, but I
literally never do eye shadow anymore. I
don't know why, but tonight we're doing
it cuz why not? Hopefully it turns out
good, though. I feel like the older I
get, the more I think that too much
makeup looks a little crazy.
So, we'll see. I feel like I have big
eyes and I love to keep it that way, but
whenever I put on eye makeup, I feel
like they just get smaller. So,
especially going to my makeup trial for
my wedding, I'm going to make sure to
tell her that I like my eyes to stay big
and like wide and white. And I put
eyeliner on this eye, just like a little
bit on the corner. Do we think it makes
a difference?
Does it make it look bigger or smaller?
I think if I put like eyeliner down
here, it makes it look smaller, but I
might smudge out like shadow on the
lower lash. But
I don't know. Should I do a wing, you
guys? I feel like every time I do a
wing, I'm like, eh. But it's always fun
to do a wing. And like I said, I'm going
to a concert tonight, you know? Might as
well go all out. It's 3:36. I'm just
spraying some wet texturizing spray in
my hip hair. I did my hair a little
different and I love it. I literally
took like 10 minutes. Not even joking. I
just left it on the wand for like 5
seconds each. And this is what it looks
like. The false lashes also look really,
really good. I'm like pretty happy with
my makeup. I mean, it was a little
struggle. I don't know what I used, but
my face is like peeling.
So, that's fun. Not a good day for that
to happen, but
there's hair. Yeah, got it. Okay, let's
do setting spray cuz we know we're going
to need
this. Say city spray. Spread. City set.
It's like oo more than halfway.
And then I love to go in with my L'Oreal
Infalluable. Like this is crazy. It
just like locks it all in and I
definitely need that. But it's like
hairspray. Like it will get in your
hair. My hair doesn't feel like super
clean even though I washed it literally
yesterday. But that's okay. I don't know
what happened. So I'm just going to like
cover it a little bit and then spray it.
I make sure I get like my cheeks
especially.
Okay.
I feel like I need more blush.
Where's my blush? I also did some fake
freckles.
You know, just having fun with my
makeup.
This about face blush in the color
in the dust. so good. It's like so glowy
and just like a really really pretty
color.
Okay, we're going to lock that in again
with the setting spray.
So funny how I was like, "Oh yeah, I'm
just going to like sew my skirt
tighter." Mhm. Like I have time for
that. Absolutely not. It's 3:39. I
should probably leave my house by like
4:00. Still got to get my bag and
everything. Ain't no time for that. But
I don't know what bottoms to wear. I got
these new earrings from this company
called Frasier Sterling. I think they're
based in Houston. Look how cute. And you
guys, the skirt actually fits. It is
low-waisted, but like you can't really
tell because this top is longer. It
really all came together. Hair is
looking a little crazy, though.
It just needs a little brush.
I'm thinking I need some body gloves.
So, we're going to do Patrick Taw Glow
Bomb. Is that what it's called? Yes. Of
course, all over her chest.
I think I want to take off this necklace
and maybe go no necklace cuz the
earrings are like a statement. Love
looking like a glazed donut and just so
moisturized. I feel like this needs to
happen. the Ariana Grande Cloud perfume.
I know the blue one's cloud, but I don't
know if this is like just cloud intense
or if it's a totally different
fragrance. But love the pink one even
more than the blue one. And I love the
blue one. I just feel like it's a very
mature smell and I love it. We're all
ready just in time.
The Luchi martinis are so good.
>> Cheers. Oh my goodness. Wait, I love
this selfie screen right here.
>> What do you think about 10 10?
>> You know what?
>> I really liked it. I would say a 10 out
of 10,
>> but it's an eight out of 10, I would
say.
>> That's good. That's good.
>> Good, though. Great sushi.
>> And you're gluten-free, right? Yes.
>> And Ria's vegetarian. What do you think,
Ria?
>> I love 1010. I love the cocktails, the
food, everything. So,
>> the luchi martinas are slay.
>> They're delicious.
>> What do you think about 1010, Lauren?
>> I will be back.
>> You will be back. Yes,
>> I will be back. I will be back.
>> I said eight out of 10, but I'll be
back.
>> They put me in charge of the directions
and that was not a good idea,
>> but it's okay. We
>> getting our stuff.
>> There it is. Delaza.
That's what we're looking for. We just
need to find the RM beauty popup now and
we're going to find it. We're going to
get the pick.
>> Oh my gosh, guys. It wasn't even that
far. Thank god.
>> We made it.
>> I only know Cloud, but the the pink
cloud is also cloud. Oh my god.
>> I know the mod vanilla is apparently
like a grown-up vanilla scent.
>> Which one is that?
>> The the white one. But you do your
makeup yourself.
>> Yeah,
>> honestly.
Oh yeah, that's delish. I'm a big fan of
Phantom Cloud.
>> I liked I liked this one. I don't know
what this was.
>> Let me try that. I've seen this
if you need to take a look.
>> Yeah, that's how I This one is very
Do you want
to try
Just
be so amazing.
I want to die
and I'm talking
to my
I want you to
please someone
dream.
You coming?
>> Happy Sunday. We got bird biscuit for
breakfast. It is so good. If you live in
Austin, if you've lived in Austin, you
haven't tried it yet. Like literally,
what are you doing? back when we would
like go out out, we would always get it
after a night out because it's the best
hangover food. I really didn't drink too
much yesterday. Like by the time I got
home, I was like completely sober. Um,
so not hung over today, thank God, cuz I
was not trying to feel that. I want
today to be like productive, but also
like rot a little and just like I don't
know, see where the day takes me. I
definitely want to clean up because the
house is pretty cluttered and you know
it'd be nice to do some laundry because
it's piling up and just like reset for
the week ahead. The order I get is a
queen beak and it has like spicy mayo
and like peppered honey in it and then I
get peppered honey on the side so I can
dip it in and I love like a sweet and
salty combo. It is my dad's birthday
today and if you know him at all, you
know that he is partying right now in
St. Trope. He loves to travel and he
loves to party. So, he's turning 60
today, by the way, which is crazy. So, I
just tried to like WhatsApp him and he's
like literally at a day club, a beach
club, like with all his friends. And it
was like so blurry, but he was like,
"This is my daughter FaceTiming me." And
I'm like, "I can't hear anything. It's
like literally like glitching so bad."
But I just thought I would give him a
call. I I didn't know if he was like
going to start partying early. Of
course. Of course. He's He's my dad.
Yes. I think it's like 5:00 p.m. there
right now. And it's currently 10:30
a.m. here. Last night's concert was so
much fun. To be honest, I was really
really worried that it was going to be
very hot in that concert venue. Run
Beauty had sweets every single night.
So, I had a bunch of friends that had
already went and all of them were like,
"Yeah, it was really really hot. Bring a
minivan." So, I was like, "Prepare the
whole night." I did use it a little bit
cuz it was still like pretty, you know,
like hot and steamy when you were like
dancing. But it was nowhere near as hot
as it seemed the other day. So, I was
very, very thankful for that because I
do feel like being hot just would have
made the experience a little less
enjoyable. But she is just an insane
singer. Like I saw her in high school. I
think I already told you guys this. And
I just feel like whenever you go to a
concert, you fall more in love with the
artist. So, I've been like listening to
all of her old songs and she's just so
good.
Mhm.
>> Ryan, this is why we don't wear shoes in
the house.
>> Look how big the spider is.
>> All the golf bags in this room,
>> right? Okay. You can't be doing all that
anymore.
>> Oh, no. That wasn't a minute. Holy
It's dead, I think.
>> No, it's dead.
>> Dead. That's It's covered with
like
>> So, you got it.
>> Wait, Ryan, is that a spider?
>> It's 100% a spider. I just sent you a
picture with my dead. Smush it with YOUR
>> OH MY GOD.
We thought it was dead.
>> SMASH IT.
>> I'M TRYING. I'M SCARED. I'm scared. I'm
going to pick it up and it's going to
run.
>> Okay. Ready? Three, two, one.
>> OH MY GOD. BABE, WHAT THE
>> Holy
>> I feel like that could take on Sophie.
>> What the She's looking at. She's like,
"Yeah, you guys should hear that one."
>> Babe, what the
>> LIKE, WHAT'S THAT?
>> IT'S NOT. IT'S NOT
>> DISGUSTING.
>> E,
>> is it still alive? Crush it. It's still
alive.
>> I KNOW.
>> SO GROSS, RYAN.
>> WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE jelly and
>> It has blood in it, I think.
>> Ew.
>> What about just babies right now?
>> You're welcome, Ryan.
>> Thanks.
>> Good lord. So Ryan's biggest fear is
spiders. Mine is ants. So he takes care
of the ants. I got the spiders. I know
it's weird for you guys, but I had a
very traumatic experience when I was
younger. I was in Girl Scouts playing
Red Rover and I stepped in a red ant
pile. And life was never the same. Let's
check what's in the garden today.
There's some tomatoes. Not that many
though. I really thought I would be
having like so many tomatoes that I
could jar and make sauce out of, but
nope. Not this year. I guess my cucumber
plant is going crazy. I actually just
put these little ropes up so that they
could grow vertically because it was
like a mess of a jungle. They were like
all getting tangled together. I'm
growing okra over here. Look how
beautiful this okra flower is. It only
lasts a day and then it just like
randomly falls off. But look at all this
okra. I actually need to look up how to
know when to pick it. My zenyas are
finally so close to blooming. I mean,
there's one, but that's so short. And
usually they're so tall, so I don't know
what's going on. And also, my cosmos are
not doing very well this year. And
that's usually another really easy
flower to grow. So, I'm not really sure
what's going on. I think I said this in
another vlog, but I did buy these zenyas
at a nursery and they are doing pretty
well. And look at these. These are
sunflowers, but they're teddy bear
sunflowers.
And I'm pretty sure they were supposed
to grow way taller than that, but like,
you know, I'll take it. They're blooming
at least. I also made a little trellis
for these guys cuz they were getting a
little crazy. These are honeydew melon
and butternut squash, I believe. And I
think that these are edible, these
flowers. I've seen people literally fry
them and I'm like so curious. Should I
try that? These are doing so well, my
salvas. This one's like bushing out a
ton. And I wish these two would do the
same. I mean, I do see like small buds
over here. So, maybe it just needs a
little bit more time. I'm so sad. This
rose plant, I don't know what's going on
here. It was actually way more yellow.
Um, I did end up fertilizing a lot of
these plants like a couple of days ago,
and I think I just need to do that more
often. So, it's actually looking a lot
better, which is good. But there were so
many beautiful pink roses on it and now
they're all gone and I think they're
like fried. I don't know. But the
nursery guy said that it needs full sun.
So, we'll just have to figure that one
out. We got a blackberry plant over
here. And you know what? Why don't we
pick off this little guy?
Oh, hello. Okay. Stunning harvest of the
day. One and a half berries. This rose
plant's grown so much. This is a JFK
rose. And there were so many more roses
on it. But I don't know, maybe it's cuz
of the heat. But these roses just do not
last very long. So they like look
perfect for maybe like a day and a half
and then they get really burnt to a
crisp. So I end up just cutting them so
that they grow a lot more. Still not
over this crepe myrtle. I feel like
we've just had such a mild summer and
all the rain has just made all these
beautiful flowers bloom so much. The
crepe myrtles, the sunflowers all over
Austin. It's gorgeous. But then it falls
into the pool and it literally makes it
look like we're in Thailand. Like this
is on purpose, but it's not. And then it
makes the pool green though. So that is
an issue. Ryan's just going to have to
like throw some more chlorine in it.
I don't know why, but I've randomly
facetimed a ton of people today and I
feel like everyone is like, "Oh, damn
girl, you still got your makeup on from
last night." I don't ever sleep with my
makeup on. It's just my freaking lashes
that I still have on from last night cuz
I just wanted to see if they were going
to get gunky. I was going to maybe like
film today, but that's just not in the
cards. So, I wanted to see if they were
going to last for a couple of days, but
I think I'm just going to take them off
cuz they look so like weird without
makeup. I mean, I guess they don't
really look horrible on camera, but on
FaceTime, they do look a little bit
jarring. Okay, I've just been doing a
couple of like Sunday reset things
around the house. I had a ton of things
that I wanted to just like restock, but
now I'm going to start some laundry. And
I just wanted to tell you guys about
these two products. I feel like I've
shown you in vlogs before, but I'm
trying to see which one was the one I
used last. I think it's the beauty
sleep. Oh my gosh. I washed my Lola
blanket in this and it still has that
smell. I think I washed it like two two
weeks ago. It still has that smell at
night and it smells so good. It's not
like sweet. It's like a floralally
perfume. I don't know. I'm not really
good at like scents and notes and Okay.
Warm sandalwood. Jasmine. There we go.
Lavender. That's what it is. It smells
stunning when I get into my bed at
night, but this one's also really,
really good. Um, it's a little bit less
intense. This one's the active wear
detergent. I am really stingy with these
cuz they are a little bit more pricey.
But since our pantry/ laundry room
doesn't have a door on it, it's like
right in the kitchen. I will literally
save this on days where I just want my
house to smell really really good cuz it
like fills up my whole entire kitchen
with the smell. So today I am going to
use this because obviously I want our
towels to smell really good and our
house to smell really good. Little life
hack I guess.
Mosquitoes love me. And this is what
I've been using all summer. I really do
think it has made the biggest
difference. I'll link it. It's on
Amazon. Um, they have a spray, too. But
I actually really like the lotion. It
does not smell like anything. And it
actually looks really glowy, too. So, if
I'm going out and I just want a nice
little moisturized look and not to be
bitten, I will make sure to apply it.
But we are doing something very
adventurous. I was going to raw on the
couch for the rest of the night and just
like edit, but I was like, you know
what? I probably should get outside.
Ryan was playing golf, but I didn't
really get outside today. And so, we are
checking out a new spot. This is like,
what is this called? Blink Falls at
Creek or something.
>> Look, it's outside. No
>> what?
>> Beer hat outside Texas.
>> How cool. Um, this used to be a little
store on where was it?
>> Oh,
>> but I don't know where
>> North Lamar.
>> North Lamar. Yeah. But now it's gone.
Anyways, okay. Let's go explore. We did
do like the shorter hike. I'm not much
of a hiker, but I do got my chacos on,
so putting them to work today. So, this
is like a swimming spot, I believe.
We're just going to follow the Bluetooth
speaker. Like, a speaker is totally
fine, but like just keep it in your
bubble, you know? Like if you can hear
it from the parking lot, I feel like
that's that's a little crazy. Wow. It is
a short hike. It's like two steps from
the parking lot. That's what I love
about Austin, you guys. Like the there's
so much nature here, but it doesn't take
a lot to get there, which I love. This
is so pretty. Ry,
look at all these butterflies.
that
first.
Heat.
