Friday Five : Leopard Sneakers and My Thoughts on The Bachelor

I’m excited to kick off a new series: The Friday Five!

I will be discussing five things that I’ve been thinking about each week. One week might be all reality tv and what I got at the grocery store, the next, the five thoughts I have on surviving life or my views on the pending election. Really, whatever my whims may be!

While navy & orange started as a “fashion” blog, there is so much more to me, {duh!}. I’m opinionated, passionate about polarizing topics, a girl who likes pink, but also will tell complete strangers the global dangers of buying products with palm oil in them. {read more about that Here.}

While each week, you might not relate to all the topics I discuss, I hope to share things that have made me curious, a little look into my #momlife, and a way to touch on all the things that make me tick.

Here is the first Friday Five!

1. LEOPARD SNEAKERS – confession: I ordered items online on a weekly basis. So it takes a lot for me to get excited for a delivery. These leopard sneakers had me checking the front door daily. Not one to normally go towards prints or patterns, much less leopard, these are so fun. As much as I work out, I cannot stress enough how much more fun it is to get to the gym if you like what you are wearing.
2. GIRL VIDEO – this made me cry, wanting to thank all the feminists before me and really look at how candidates stand on women’s issues. It will change your life. You might want to look away, but don’t. It is all about all the things women are told in regards to their looks and how they are encouraged to behave. {if you can’t see it, check out @girls.girls.girls.magazine on Instagram.}
3. HUMIDIFIER – Our little Leo man {who gets pissed every-time I refer to him as little}, has a lingering cough. He got Pneumonia twice back to back when he was younger, and now seems to be more susceptible to lingering coughs. We rotate this warm air humidifier with this cool air humidifier and they seem to help him sleep better when he has a cough.
4. CURLING IRON – I might be the last “blogger” to jump on this bandwagon, but I really love this curling iron. The pink recently went on sale and I jumped on the opportunity to try it out. Check out the LiketoKNOW.it post with all my favorite hair products HERE.
5. THE BACHELOR – We sat out a couple of season once it got a little formulaic and repetitive. Plus, why is the age getting younger and younger??? Are you telling me these 23 year girls and 26 year old guys really feel 1. like they are ready to get married and 2. they have exhausted all their options? Either way, for whatever the reason {cough: an excuse to drink on a Monday}, we jumped back in this season and are pleasantly surprised. I mean, entertained. Who is your favorite? Also, I don’t really see all the fuss about Peter, but whatever. Give me allll your thoughts on this season? Who do you love! {disclaimer, currently watching Monday’s episode so I don’t even know who are the final two are… but I love Hannah Anne, the non-virgin is bananas but gorgeous and makes great TV. tell me what you think below!}
