Iced lattes are great year around at least for the Labels and Lacquer girls. In the summertime, nothing beats an iced cold drink, which for us usually means a coffee. If you're trying to cut back on that daily $5 coffee expense— start making unique lattes at home. That way you can start a vacation fund so you can buy iced coffees somewhere tropical/exotic! Several of the recipes we found you probably already have the ingredients in your pantry. We'll admit there are few recip

Mornings can be crazy, whether you are running short on time getting ready for work/ getting your kids ready for school, etc. Whatever the case may be, it can be hard to have a gourmet breakfast during the weekdays. And we still think breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so you need to enjoy it before the long day ahead. We like to wake up early enough to actually sip our coffee and enjoy breakfast. I always try to give myself at least thirty minutes to eat breakf

Darby and I recently popped into a café that’s themed to be exactly as they are in Paris. Now, we’ve never actually been to France, but the destination is definitely on our bucket list! We imagine a Parisian café to be the most perfect experience, and this faux experience certainly came very close to how we imagine the actual thing to be — minus a view of the Eiffel Tower! There are a few key elements that made the café distinctly French-feeling. The ambiance was a big part o

Let’s be honest—add rose petals to pretty much anything and it gets infinitely better. Seriously. Baths, bedrooms, coffee. Yes, coffee. We’ve been loving adding rose-flavored infusions to our caffeinated beverages lately, especially when they’re topped with actual dried petals. So, chic. The good news is, if your local café isn’t offering rose-covered beverages, then you can make them yourself in your very own kitchen. These recipes will help you have the most lavish coffee-s

It appears the unicorn frappuccino is already gone from Starbucks (they are sold out at most locations). Augusta and I were unable to snag the drinks before they disappeared too. But don't fret, there are other places you can get a similar unicorn coffee drinking kind of experience. It may not be exactly the Starbucks' recipe, but I'm sure it will be just as magical. We hunted the Internet for your next cafè sessions (especially if you live in New York or Brisbane). Coffee ca

No matter how you're feeling today, iced coffee is always a good idea. These days Augusta and I are so busy we really do have to have coffee everyday. Not only does it keep us energized, but we also just enjoy taking 15-30 mins to slowly sip some caffeine for a little "me" time. We happen to love iced coffee year round. But not it actually started to get to be iced coffee weather. Spring is right around the corner! So some would say it is appropriate to start drinking a cold

Coffee. What can we say? It's our favorite pick-me-up and part of our daily morning routine. We turn to this caffeine beverage to help jump start our day. Something that is that important to us deserves all the praise. Turns out there are so many more extra uses for coffee. You may have already been familiar with a few of the additional uses. At least for us we are all about coffee scrubs. They smell incredible and really exfoliate your skin. For a while we were on a kick whe

It's time to cherish the holiday season. And yes that means down to each sip from your Christmas inspired latte. We like to start almost everyday with a nice cup of coffee. Now you can spice up your morning during the best time of the year with Christmas flavors. You can choose which flavor will suit your festive day best- is it gingerbread? Or eggnog? Whatever your preference is, the L & L girls have found 5 lattes that we think you're going to love! Keep reading to have a C

Baby, it’s cold outside! And you’re not going to want to go a minute without a warm beverage in your hand. Whether you’re sipping coffee, cocoa, cider or pumpkin spice lattes, these mugs are the perfect way to enjoy the best drinks of the season. The first snow has already come and gone where Augusta lives, so needless to say, she’s had warm beverages on the brain. Because nothing goes together quite like snow and a cup of joe. Shop these mugs while the cold season lasts for

It's easy to get caught up with your routine and forget about taking care of yourself. It happens to the best of us. You're busy and the last thing you have time to do is relax. However that is one of the most important things to cross of your to-do list. Taking care of yourself, and getting enough sleep is just as important as school or work. Here are some steps we like to take in order to live a more stress-free lifestyle. We admittedly need to do more of these steps on a w
