I’m back with another fun Nespresso recipe – My vegan version of bulletproof coffee using homemade hemp milk and coconut oil! It’s a serious addiction you guys. It’s really so, so good and very filling. Did you know that bulletproof coffee was supposed to replace breakfast? That’s what I’ve heard, and let me tell you, this stuff satisfies. It’s become a necessary part of my daily morning routine. And it’s super easy to make thanks to my Nespresso VertuoPlus and Aeroccino. I mean it. Super. Easy.

With all of the rain here in California lately, we are having some major greens going on. You might have heard of the super bloom? Yes, well every plant in our yard is thriving. Actually, even my indoor plants are pretty happy too. It’s just a great year to develop a green thumb! I’ve been taking full advantage. Over the winter I’ve amassed quite a number of indoor plants and now I’ve set my sights on the outdoors. I partnered with World Market today, to bring you some of their great plant and potting bench supplies. Here are some of my favorites right now.

April Faves | Spring Cleaning Picks

Starting a new monthly series! I’ll be picking a few favorites and sharing them with you. There won’t always be a theme, I think, but I thought it would be fun to share a couple of unique and natural ways I like to clean house over here. I’ve done a few cleaning posts before, but here are some products I’ve been using (or would like to try!) for spring cleaning this month.

1 | HIMALAYAN SALT LAMP

Like I mentioned in my Mother’s Day gift guide, I’ve bought salt lamps for almost every room in the house! So Well only sells fair trade Himalayan salt harvested ethically. A+

2 | ORGANIC BED LINEN SUBSCRIPTION

Coyuchi just announced their organic bed and bath linen subscriptions. Pretty great idea!

3 | THE LAUNDRESS LAUNDRY ASSORTMENT℅

I’m loving that The Laundress has separate detergents for my lights and darks! Anything to keep my blacks looking black! They work well and sit pretty 😉

4 | PHUR CLEANING WATER℅

pHur water’s pH balance has been changed to create a cleaner and a disinfectant. The only contents? Water and salt. Yep. That’s IT. I’m so on board!

5 | AWAIR℅

This gorgeous little piece of tech analyzes the air quality of your home and gives you an air quality score. It can also integrate with other smart tech in your home to improve the air conditions. For example, it can connect to your Nest and either turn on the heater or air condition if temperature levels get too extreme. So cool right? Plus it’s so chic looking! You can also use it like a clock.

6 | CHIKUNO CUBE

I might have mentioned this little guy before, but I really do love it. It’s a charcoal natural air purifier! We have one in our refrigerator and in the kids room.

I was not paid to write this post but it does contain affiliates and gifted items noted with a “℅”. Thank you for supporting Copy Cat Chic!

Kitchen Clean Up with Method

This post is sponsored by method home.

Even though I didn’t make any formal resolutions for the new year, I think my unofficial motto has been to “simplify”. That goes for my life AND home. It definitely goes along with my whole minimalist vibe. On that front, I’ve been on a huge declutter and organizing kick over here at the copycatchic household. My first project for 2017? Tackling kitchen sink area. No, it’s not a glamorous job, but it really wasn’t working for us. Under the sink was dark, dirty, cluttered and just a complete disaster. I collaborated with method to show you their newest spring limited edition collection. I thought it was the perfect partnership as the inspiration behind their newest collection is based on simplicity, function, and minimalism. Right up my alley!

Conscious Home Decor our favorite green eco-friendly home accessories and decor || Copy Cat Chic luxe living for less budget home decor and design

The terms fair trade, organic, eco-friendly, responsibly-sourced, locally-made, charitable, recycled, reusable, and guaranteed-for-life (phew) don’t really conjure images of beautiful home decor, but according to these amazing finds, they should! Little changes in our buying and decorating habits can make a big difference, and each of these products has so much more to offer than meets the eye. I’m digging linen napkins and steel straws for using less paper and plastic every day, and tons of these items would make fabulous gifts-that-give-back this holiday season. Now get to shopping…the world needs you to!

3 Ways to get healthy for the New Year

I’m already thinking about how to start living healthier for the 2017. The holidays are always full of temptations aren’t they? Starting with a major sugar rush from Halloween, followed by Thanksgiving feasts (yes, plural) and then ending up with a plethora of Christmas cookies. I’ve been trying to stay on top of things, but clothing is definitely a little tight right now! I haven’t been exercising or eating as healthy has a should be. I’m sure you all have the same problem, am I right? So I decided there had to be some convenient and time-saving options available for the hardworking family like us. After doing some major research and trial and error, I found three GREAT companies that I highly recommend. I’ve tried and vetted all three and am a huge fan. They make it easy to start being healthier right now, no excuses.

Organic Makeup Daytime Look with Juice Beauty

We’re venturing off into something a little different today. If you’ve been a blog follower for long, you’ll know that I like to live consciously, aka eco-friendly, aka green. I’ve talked about my skincare routine before, and today, I thought it would be fun to bring you my easy daytime makeup routine, all organic of course 😉 I’ve just recently started using Juice Beauty’s new makeup line. They released their makeup products less than a year ago actually, and already they’ve become a staple around here. The foundation and concealer products work better than any I’ve tried! Each product is so moisturizing and nourishing for my (naturally dry skin). I’m not usually a big fan of makeup because I can feel it just sitting like a layer of paint on my face; not so with these! I no longer feel like I’m clogging my pores with toxic makeup. So I reached out to Juice Beauty to collaborate on this post (and giveaway) for you guys. I highly recommend, love (and USE) their makeup.
