May 17, 2020 at 11:55PM I dread jeans shopping. Getting tons of pairs on and off my body in the fitting room is a straight-up nightmare. That’s why I jumped at the chance to order these Old Navy Extra High-Waisted Boyfriend Straight Jeans ($35, originally $40) – they arrived to the comfort of my home, hassle-free. I was curious about this pair in particular because they’re bestsellers on the site – the customer reviews got me excited to give them a shot. Not only are these jeans flattering, (I love a good high waist) they’re also insanely comfortable. They have some stretch, but not the type that feels baggy. I can throw them in the washing machine, and they maintain their shape perfectly. I often sit cross-legged on the sofa, and these are just as easy to wear all day long as sweatpants. I’m not kidding – they’re the perfect sort of denim to put on for extended periods of time. These boyfriend jeans comes in sizes 0-20, as well as tall, petite, and regular lengths. They’re discounted right now, so I suggested getting your hands on my new faves while you still can. I might have to stock up on an extra pair! Read on for more shopping info.

Six Amazing Female-led Shows To Binge On Netflix
Who run the world? If you need a reminder, here are six amazing, female-led shows on Netflix. I dare you not to binge on them. ‘Tis the season to be binging, am I right? Let’s face it – amidst the entertaining and bettering oneself by reading, cooking, baking (seriously, what’s the big deal with banana bread?), exercising and so on, surely this is also a really good time to quarantine and chill? I’m not advocating for spending ALL of your time on Netflix, but hey, if you need a distraction from all the madness, I happen to have a few amazing recommendations. This also gives me the chance indulge my passion for one of my favourite things! I’ve been a cinephile for the most part of my life (fashion was actually my second love, *gasp*), and in recent years that has expanded onto series, given the glitzy makeover these have had. Also, this wasn’t a premeditated decision, it just so happens that all of these shows are female-led – which I love! Maybe I’m just subconsciously drawn to storylines with strong female characters? So if you need a dose of female empowerment (of course you do) combined with some good old escapism, check out these six amazing shows – just don’t be surprised if you do end up having a bit of a binging session. 1.

Struggling to Manage Your Roots? These Cover-Up Products Should Do the Trick
May 17, 2020 at 03:30PM Whether you’re battling with greys or your natural brunette strands are wreaking havoc with your blonde, a huge number of us are about to embark on a tumultuous journey with our roots. And if box dye just isn’t an option (it should always be a last resort), finding different ways to disguise a dodgy root situation can often prove tricky. From experimenting with interesting up-dos to smothering dark streaks with talc, at some point in our lives, we have all gone to extreme lengths in a bid to blend hair regrowth. But what if I told you it didn’t have to be so hard? In fact, temporarily covering up your roots at home couldn’t be easier. Without dyes, bleach or even toner, root concealers and cover-ups provide the ultimate quick fix. By dispersing powdered pigment (either with a spray product or with a brush) through affected areas, you can minimise the appearance of bold, contrasting roots in a matter of seconds. And, while I by no means promise they will sort the problem completely, they certainly do a stand-up job at blending roots and minimising their appearance. Sound like something you could benefit from right now? Keep scrolling for the best root concealers out there… Dab the sponge over dark roots to blend with your blonde hair colour. Use the brush to cover peekaboo greys and blonde strands. This clever powder is great if you want to create the illusion of a thicker hairline. Hairstylist

Green Goddess Dressing Recipe
May 17, 2020 at 10:00AM The ultimate zesty and refreshing sauce, this green goddess dressing recipe will become a quick favorite to top onto salads, bowls or even used as a dip! Easily customizable and made with just a few simple ingredients. It dawned on me the other day as I was whipping up yet another bowl recipe that I’ve never shared my classic green goddess dressing recipe. This sauce is pretty much second nature to me. I just throw everything in the blender and hope for the best. Without fail this green goddess dressing always seems to work out. It struck me that sometimes I go 10 steps ahead when it comes to cooking instead of sharing the classics. I’ve shared plenty of bowl recipes (and many more to come!) but sometimes what you really need is a delicious dressing recipe to top onto whatever you have – recipe or not! What I love most about this recipe is how customizable it is. I oftentimes make it when I notice some of my herbs on their way out. I toss them in the blender with the rest of the ingredients and BAM it gives them new life! It’s also super versatile and can be […] The post Green Goddess Dressing Recipe appeared first on The Healthy Maven. Continue Reading… Author Davida Lederle | Thehealthymaven Selected by CWC
