Airbnb Dream Home – The Funky Loft

Who’s stayed at an Airbnb before? Chances are most of you have. I have stayed at various before, but I never thought much of any of them. That is until I stayed at The Funky Loft which is located in Brooklyn, New York. It is honestly the cutest, dreamiest, most bohemian place I have ever seen! Not to mention there is a swing! I mean can it get any better? Also, the women who live there are seriously the sweetest and provide complementary breakfast. They had Lucky Charms which is hands down my favorite cereal. There is music bumping most of the afternoon which consisted of mostly oldies which is my favorite!

This amazing Airbnb is located in Brooklyn and is super close to a subway (About 5-10 minute walk). I stayed here with my friend @michellemakingmoves. We got a 7 day subway card and went to DUMBO, and walked across the Brooklyn Bridge. We also went to Times Square, and the Flatiron building by taking the subway. This is a great place to stay at when visiting New York because of how cute, convenient, and cost friendly it is. Make your Instagram New York dreams comes true by staying at The Funky Loft next time you’re in New York! @thefunkyloft

Galentine’s Day Party

Today’s blog post is sponsored by Vanilla Gift Cards.

Are you looking to throw the perfect Galentine’s Day party? I just threw one and it was a huge success!

I started off with decorations which I picked up at my local dollar tree. I was able to get a blow-up LOVE balloon with a bunch of heart balloons. I also picked wine glasses, Valentine’s Day cards, and a bunch of candy.

I then went to Target where I picked up a heart shaped waffle maker and heart shaped plates. I picked up a bunch of cookies, and macaroons there as well.

I got my charcuterie board and laid out a bunch of candy, cookies, and macaroons. The girls absolutely loved it! (And so did my husband lol).

GIFTS! The perfect gift for any party is definitely gift cards. That’s why this this Galentine’s Day party I used Vanilla Gift Cards. They come in a variety of beautiful styles to pick from as shown. These gift cards are honestly the best because they are super cute and allow each guest to spend it how they like it. As we all know women are super picky with what they want, so these would be a huge hit! You can use code Ashley for no purchase fees!

I hope this blog post gave you some inspiration for what to do at your Galentine’s Party. Remember to get the perfect gift by getting Vanilla Gift Cards. Let me know in the comments below how you are celebrating Galentine’s Day.

Comfiest Fall Booties

They are honestly the comfiest pair of shoes I own! I didn’t even need to break them in, and I can walk for hours in them. Since they are black, they match with absolutely every color, which I love!

Plunder Design Jewelry

Hello everyone,

Today I wanted to come on here and talk about my favorite jewelry pieces from Plunder Design!

I am beyond picky when it comes to jewelry specifically earrings, and let me tell you these are the cutest pair I’ve seen! They are the perfect size and have an amazing design. They have white feathers on them and tiny jewels that combine perfectly together! I’ve been wearing them non stop for a couple of day now!

Now let’s talk about the necklace. I was looking for a necklace that was unique, yet sophisticated and I found it. This necklace has a soft chain which makes it look fancy and feels good to wear. The necklace has a waterfall look with the pearls falling at different lengths, which is so beautiful!

Reusable Straws

Recently I have been wanting to become more sustainable simply because it something we should all be doing. Eco at Heart reached out to me and I was able to receive a few of their straws. I seriously love their straws that come in a set of 5! I was able to give one to each of my family members and keep one for myself. I have been using this straw almost everywhere I go, because let’s be real, plastic straws are really bad for the environment. Eco straws are super inexpensive at $15 Amazon Prime shipped for 5 straws! These will last you forever and it comes with the stick to properly clean the straws. Here is the link to the straws https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=me%3DA3OY4HKRNQSIK0&field-keywords=Stainless+steel+straws&low-price=14.90.

How are you sustainable?

Inexpensive Boho jewelry

I honestly have been wearing the same three necklaces for a couple years now simply because I am super picky when it comes to finding cute necklaces that are in my price range. Maroxy & Co reached out to me about trying one of their necklaces, which I was super ecstatic about because their jewelry is quite unique. Low and behold I received the package and they sent me an extra necklace, which is literally perfect and I have worn it every day since. These necklaces are seriously super boho and adorable! PLUS, their necklaces range from $8-$18 which is definitely doable! Here is a link to their website https://www.maroxyco.com/necklaces. I have a discount code “Ashley15” for your next purchase! Also be sure to follow me on my Instagram at @ashleyinthemidst to keep up with me daily. I can’t wait to wear these at Coachella next year!!!

Aren’t these necklaces adorable?

Teeth Whitening Reviews

SMILE! Over the last month or so I have been using @SmileBrillant to whiten my teeth and I can honestly say I have loved how it’s been working for me. My teeth have been whitening up each time and as someone who loves taking pictures, having a white smile makes me feel more confident. It’s really worth taking the time and slowly whitening if it means it will last longer! Also since i’ve had braces (which cost a lot) I truly believe working towards nice pearly whites is seriously worth it! Also the customer service for this company is amazing and they answer any questions you have. The kit also comes with a desensitizing gel so that your teeth don’t ever hurt when you whiten! Trust me i’ve experienced some pain when using other whitening gels in the past. This is why I honestly suggest using Smile Brilliant to gain that smile confidence that we all desire.

GIVEAWAY!! Follow this link and put your email in for your chance to win your very own whitening kit! Giveaway link: http://www.smilebrilliant.com/g/ashleyinthemidst the giveaway ends in one week. Also you can get 15% off store wide using the code: ashleyinthemidst15 https://www.smilebrilliant.com/

Here are some before and after pictures. As you can see my teeth have whitened up quite a bit! It is amazing to see the results after using the gel a few times a week! If you have any questions feel free to ask me. But honestly, isn’t the difference crazy?! ​

Here are some other pictures I have used in the past featuring SmileBrilliant! Also check out my Instagram @ashleyinthemidst for more pictures!
