Long time no see! I haven’t made a blog post in over a year. I went from posting EVERY SINGLE DAY to radio silence so let me catch you up! I have been wrapped up in becoming a mom of two, transitioning to a stay at home mom, buying a house, moving, decorating, learning to take care of my postpartum body and I even started an activewear business. (WHEW!) My site is called shopfivefifteen.com and was created out of my new found love for fitness and my forever love of fashion. I sell leggings, shorts, and sports bras for now but I will expand my line further in the future. I just closed my very first pre-order window on June 7th but I will be launching a new collection at the end of July/beginning of August. This second launch will be better than the first one…trust me on this one…you won’t wanna miss it! As we get closer to the next launch, I’ll be updating you guys here and on my socials. If you don’t follow me on instagram, TikTok, or YouTube…what are you doing sis?! All of my handles are ElleRyans…be sure to follow me so you don’t miss out on any of the fun!
So now that I’m back…heres the new schedule! I won’t post every day like before (for now). I’d like to work my way back up to that but BABY STEPS. For now, I’ll be posting every Thursday at 8am est but you can catch my daily shenanigans with hubby and the kids on my instagram stories in between posts. I also post reels throughout the week and will be trying my hand at long form YouTube videos now that they have made updates on the requirements for monetization.
Now that you’re all caught up, let’s get into what you’re here for, my most recent purchases!
I wanted a Bible and TikTok said this was the ONE! It is veryyyy heavy but it is also BEAUTIFUL! I got the exact one pictured and it is a natural weave on the outside and the pages are trimmed in gold. I was shocked when I pulled it out of the box because it didn’t expect it to be sos STUNNING! It is a neutral lovers DREAM!
I have been on the hunt for this color for MONTHS! I finally found it randomly one day and scrambled to purchase it only to realize that I was on backorder after I hit confirm…UGH!!! Luckily, it actually shipped sooner that what the original ship date was supposed to be and is fully in stock on this website.
My oldest son loves to chew my straws into oblivion. I just needed a few backups (lol!)
4. Swiss Arabian Shangaf Oud Perfume
If you love Oud then this is for you. It’s very heavy on the Oud and its little smokey at first. BUT when it dries down, it transforms into a sweet vanilla/caramel. The dry down almost reminds me of the sweet and smokeyness of creme brûlée.
XO, Elle
