BUG SPRAY WARS

Late Night Candle Love
My friend Sophia and I, we are like two lentils in a pod. When we are on our way home from going out we often like to take detours to drugstores. Late night drug store trips are one of my MOST FAVORITE activities, I’ve been making these journey’s since high school with my super awesome lady friend Zoe too. Lately, me and Sophia, often have to, simply just have to pick up candles at 4am. These are my top candle picks that I keep on replacing when I burn them down to the core. Continue reading
