AUGUST FAVORITES | AMERIIE

[@IffyAdan]

This has quickly become my favorite YT channel - and honestly I DONT say that lightly! And we need a tutorial on this pretty fall look! Kisses from Denmark

[@Amerie.]

+Baby D.S thank you so much for the love! So glad you're enjoying it! ^_^

[@t.kuykendall517]

I love period films and can't believe I've not yet watched downtown abbey. I'll be binge watching it soon. Love the lashes, ponytail and background. ❤️

[@FeliciaMesadieu]

LOVING YOUR LIPSTICK AND I'M GETTING SO MUCH INSPIRATION FROM YOUR BACKDROP

[@Amerie.]

Thank you much Felicia! ^_^

[@kandya8253]

I completely agree that the character's death was obtuse. I've heard that it was a result of contract non renewal. The writers say that death was the route they chose to provide finality to that love triangle story arc😒. On a happy note, the show does go on. This was my favorite series!

[@theactivespirit]

I love all your tangents.

[@scsreads]

I loved Stranger Things! I put off watching it for a while because I'm a scaredy cat and I thought it would be too scary for me, but then people kept raving about it so I had to check it out. I loved the kids who played the main characters. They were all so good, particularly Eleven. And Winona was amazing too of course. I'm curious to see what they do with the second season and if they'll be able to recapture the awesomeness of the first season!

[@Amerie.]

Looove Eleven, including her nickname and how it was short for a number instead of "Elle." Can't wait for season 2, as well! ^_^

[@itsdejalynn]

Your favorites are so different from everyone elses. I loved it.

[@Amerie.]

Thank you! ^_^

[@SheritaGurl]

Omg. I haven't been on KZbin in a while. So I'm totally gonna binge watch your videos. Lol. Ilysm. Your so funny. "Yes I do need this much popcorn" lol I love popcorn too. That Chicago popcorn is RIDICULOUS. so good. Omg

[@MsLiberianLady]

the backdrop i need in my life

[@lalagirlone]

I, too, love ArcLight Cinemas. I actually just came from there and bought popcorn, like I do every time, because it's so yummy and it's my guilty pleasure. A few of my August favorites were: Five Presidents by Clint Hill (book), My Voice by Angie Martinez (book), Mask of Magnaminty from Lush (face mask) and The Last Bookstore (bookstore in LA). Visually, this video was stunning!

[@Amerie.]

Thank you, and luuuurrrve The Last Bookstore! Whoo hoo!

[@josryder7841]

Downton Abbey will always have a special place in my heart😍😍

[@savvyfeminist4700]

Hi Amerrie I love that your diversifying your channel loved the favourites. You lighting is excellent as well as the backdrop so fresh and chic. A video suggestion pls could you do a video about your YT channel e.g why you started YT the equipment you use for filming, what you use for editing your videos, show us your filming area etc. Also any tips for starting a YT channel especially if you feel hesitant or scared.

[@Amerie.]

Thank you! And I shall do that filming/logistics video in the future! ^_^

[@kmlawal]

LOVED The Good Wife. The death hurt my soul because I loved the character and the actor. Still need to finish Downton Abbey and Narcos is everything!

[@Amerie.]

I know! I was seriously hurt!

[@PurposefulPursuits]

Loved your faves video! I can't wait to check out the urban decay lipsticks.. it sounds awesome. I laughed so hard at how serious you were about popcorn... I eat it maybe once a year.. lol

[@GiGi-gc2mm]

That choker is so pretty yasss

[@chevybrown3931]

Who remembers wearing chokers back in the day??? 🙋🏾🙋🏾🙋🏾 I remember wearing headbands around my neck faking it until my mom finally allowed me to wear one! 😂

[@Amerie.]

😂😂😂love it!!

[@maltmel]

READING IZ FUNDAMENTAL!!!!

[@priceliss]

Hi A!! Loved this whole video 😂 @ the Skinny Pop rant. Skinny Pop is the best tho!! They're delicious and usually on sale at Walgreens, which is nice. Have you ever tried Popcorners chips before? They're so different, but so yummy. I think you might like them. I love the Kettle flavor the best (stay away from the Butter flavor, tasted super weird). I haven't started Stranger Things yet, but will most likely start this weekend. I've been hearing nothing but good things about it. I just wish there were more episodes. I feel like I'm always searching for a new show to watch because I run thru seasons so quickly lol. I'd recommend The Get Down on Netflix, if you haven't seen it already. A little over the top at times, but still worth a watch if you're a fan of hip hop😊. Take Care❤-Angie🤗 P.S That lip color is to die for!!

[@TeliahWinters]

Hey Angie! 😁😁😁

[@priceliss]

Hey T!!🤗

[@Amerie.]

Thanks for the rec, Angie (including the butter flavor warning lol)! ^_^ And let me know how you like Stranger Things!!!

[@supershardom]

Popcorn Indiana is the red bag. I love their kettle corn. It's my guilty pleasure and it's vegan! :) love your videos.

[@Snuggles78]

Red Bag popcorn you mentioned is I think Indiana Popcorn Company - KettleCorn. LOVE LOVE your channel!!!!!!

[@EANDM71]

WOWOWOWOWOWW! Amerie! You have a channel!! That's so awesome! I've always been a huge fan of your music. D.C. ladies unite! ;)

[@Amerie.]

😘😘😘Thank you for the love girlie!

[@whitecloudov968]

Stranger things! Yes!

[@elenareadsbooks88]

I love that your popcorn habit is as strong as mine. I eat it often too and I'm always on the look out for a new popcorn. Tell you what though if you oven bake cauliflower marinated in malt vinegar and salt it is super yummy and a little bit like popcorn (just saying in case you need to Mummy popcorn it up) Great video as always

[@Amerie.]

+Elena Reads Books (ereadsbooks) great tip, Elena! I an so going to try this, and I'm going to show Mommy so she can relax lol!😘

[@elenareadsbooks88]

+Books Beauty Ameriie recipe I followed blissfulbasil.com/easyrecipe-print/14634-0/

[@Amerie.]

noted! ^_^

[@Sainsanaaa]

OMG! I grew up listening to "one thing"!!! I was wondering what happened to you! i'm so glad you're making youtube videos now

[@Amerie.]

Whoo hoo! Thanks for the love! ^_^ Welcome to the channel, and new music coming soon. ;)

[@MsGABlue]

I hated that part of the Good Wife too. It's not the same without that character but it's a good show. Enjoy!

[@corvetteshrell]

Omg I watched the Good Wife and I was so upset they killed off (you know who) I stopped after that I was so sad! But I love your music and All I Have is one of my favorite cd's EVER! Nothing Like Loving You is one of my favorite songs ever! Can't believe I JUST found you have a KZbin page! And Love Urban Decay Lipsticks!

[@missgigip]

Yes for narcos..I binged it this past weekend and OMG 😱so many emotions lol..yes for vice and check out Becca highlighters I think you would enjoy the poured version ..but those are amazing as well to get that glow. Hourglass has an amazing palette out for the holidays I'm debating ..makeup problems..anyways love ur faves as usual ..

[@Amerie.]

Thank you, and ooh, I shall check out those highlighters--thank you! ^_^

[@sieshadees]

I'm so happy you watch game of thrones yes yea its amazing this season

[@chloelupiencl]

Love the lip colour , now I have to go to Sephora and purchase it 😃

[@Amerie.]

I hope you love it as much as I do! :)

[@ChiChiBell]

I was kinda skeptical going into Stranger Things; And then I ended up binge watching the crap out of it & am contemplating re-watching the season, lol. Can not wait for season 2!!

[@Amerie.]

awwww yeaaaaah!!!

[@vaughnjames397]

i've been in a bubble the past month. can't wait to watch "stranger things."

[@th3queenB09]

I LOVE Stranger Things!! Definitely one of my favorite shows right now and I can't wait for season 2. It's a really fun and interesting show. Also I'm curious have you or anyone else watched Atlanta and/or Queen Sugar? I have a feeling those will be September favorites!!

[@Amerie.]

I saw a teeny bit of Atlanta this week and could already tell by the writing that it's my kind of show! Can't wait to watch the whole thing. :D

[@cutecheerfreak1]

No September TBR 😭😭 why?! I love your favorites vids tho

[@zamo9266]

I love the choker look especially in velvet. I also recently bought a notebook that I love in black and white with gold text "holy chick". I'm loving you in the dark lip and love the high light in your eye corners. I was so angry at Will's death 😡

[@moonlightlegend8502]

Your popcorn addiction is worse than mine 😂 And I thought I was bad 😆 I also have the same reaction to dairy so I avoid it as much as possible. I miss white cheddar...it's not common flavoring in Europe where I reside. I totally agree about Vice! I actually avoided UD b/c I was sick of the Naked Palette craze; but, their Vice lippie formula is amazing...it's somehow moisturizing without any sliding and the pigmentation is on point 👌 About the choker, I have the same reservations...seems 90's is trending hardcore lately. It's like a blast from the past - it's cool to look grungy and mismatched again 😆

[@moonlightlegend8502]

Must be a 90s kid thing about the paper. So nostalgic for that black and white notebook ✏📝✏ Ive been collecting notebooks since then - just love the smell of paper, books, trees 😊 I just pulled out a new one with the phrase 'Things are looking up from now' on the cover. My other favorite is Doctor Who! I'm so obsessed with time travel stories hahhaa

[@jamilafever8110]

Ok, ok, ok...The Good Wife. I was PISSED!!! I was like of allllll the people that could have kicked the bucket you take him?! NOW?! I didn't want to keep watching either. I hated how it ended but like you say it was very much like real life. Started rocky....ended rocky. Ugh! Rollercoaster of emotions.

[@MichaEtienne]

I enjoyed ur video. Stranger things was awesome!

[@MatiiT]

You're so cute, A!! I just want to pinch you! :D

[@Amerie.]

*ow!* ^_^ 😘

[@MatiiT]

Hehehehe!

[@TeliahWinters]

Garret's Popcorn in Chicago though 🙌🏽😋

[@yolandahoward9634]

I agree with Savvy, and am enjoying the new variety on your channel. I actually eat Smartfood popcorn every other day. I may have tried the smart pop before, a long time ago. But.. it must not've left a lasting impression on me. Think I'll try it again, in maybe different flavors. When it comes to milk I use to drink soy, back-n-the-day. Soy milk is actually pretty good, but kind of expensive. So I ended up going back to 2% for years, until lately. I've been thinking of letting cow milk go.I recently tried Almond, and it wasn't bad. After listening to you break down the whole lactating cow thing, I know it's time for a change. ☺ #Goingbacktomysoymilkdays

[@Amerie.]

Thanks for sharing, and speaking of almond milk: Starbucks FINALLY has it!!

[@yolandahoward9634]

+Books Beauty Ameriie Cheers to Starbucks..☕

[@related2beauty]

Hi Amerie i think you were talking about smartfood popcorn not.... smart pop that does not come in black bag..and cute choker

[@nadiathecreator5727]

I love that we spent 5mins on popcorn. I love popcorn & I'm so happy I'm back home & I can get my Chicago mix anytime. The popcorn addiction is real. And no cauliflower is not a substitute for popcorn as it not one for rice or macaroni and cheese. My mom eats that stuff. I'm not with it

[@Amerie.]

😂😂😂 Elena Loves Books left a comment here that includes a cauliflower recipe she swears by so I'm going to give it a try. If you try before I do, please let me know! ^_^

[@songcreator71]

🎉All I Have🎉 One of My FAVORITE SONG'S, I enjoyed your video & I Like the color of your lipstick GOD BLESS

[@wendylivingston6414]

I am with you on The Good Wife! I was so upset by the death, that I actually haven't watched it since. I still have the episodes saved on my DVR, and I will probably finish it at some point, but I haven't wanted to yet. I assume it was a contractual thing, because it just didn't make any sense to me (in my opinion, haha).

[@Amerie.]

Mmmhmmm, the strangeness of the decision story-wise made me google if that was the situation.🤔

[@kehnaturalista8959]

I love your vid's...I will try the Born this way foundation...If you like foreign films on Netflix, there is one that is my fav, it's titled, "Velvet" ...great day to you...

[@sharasimmons]

Great video! You look absolutely stunning!!! If possible, can you do a video on your nutritional habits since you are dairy and gluten free?

[@Amerie.]

I'll keep this in mind--thanks for the suggestion! ^_^

[@ShaleaNelson1]

Hi Ameriie What mascara & eyeliner combo are your faves?

[@LydiaC]

I actually stopped watching the good wife after I realized that character wasn't coming back. I literally couldn't handle it. Like, life was different (clearly still in my feelings about it!) Hahaha And Narcos is everything!

[@Amerie.]

I feel you! And I just finished Narcos' season 2. Yeeeeessss!

[@PrttyBrwnEyez13]

Just followed you on Bloglovin' ! I'm also checking out Stranger Things. I've heard it was great.

[@Amerie.]

Thank youuuu! 😘

[@tondalayaedwards7239]

Wow Amerie you look amazing and such a sweetheart 😍😍😍😍😍😘 ....... Love your channel 💖😍😘

[@somethirdplace]

I literally stopped watching the show after that character died. I cried with them. It was such an emotionally draining couple of episodes. I held out for about a season and then I found out they wanted to leave the show so I got back into it. Still miss them but can't fault the show because of their choice to leave.

[@Amerie.]

*siiiiigh* I knooooowwww. I was heated. But your point is very true. That point was the only thing that made me continue lol.

[@JAZZYJSCOOBY]

Please use that notebook to right some new songs. Thanks boo!

[@Amerie.]

lol coming soon!

[@vjponce8]

Hey Ameriie, what would you recommend for a primer? I'm looking for a good primer. I have oily skin. 😫

[@Amerie.]

So far I'm really liking Murad's Invisiblur Primer with Spf 30. :)

[@vjponce8]

Thanks Ameriie!! I'll def check it out! 😁💕 Btw one of my faves for this month was The Getdown on Netflix. If you haven't watched it yet, you should check it out. You'll be hooked! 🎤🎹✍🏽

[@oren615]

Your so gorgeous

[@allureofcalm1806]

Is it sad that I started the good wife when Ameriie mentioned it in the other video and have since finished the whole series...and like a month ago 😆 some parts were hard for me to get into, but I stuck it out. was very disappointed by the death ( Esp since my mother spoiled it for me before I saw it! Literally thought she was joking when she told me) it just made everything weird. And they had to like replace that characters role with another character... Just wasn't feeling it. And the end just about made me feel like I had wasted my life. Not to spoil it, I was just unenthused. Side note, I now want to buy everything in this video... Guess thats the point right??👌

[@Emeliza.realtor]

LOVE IT! JUST SUBSCRIBED.

[@Amerie.]

Thank you! :)

[@Emeliza.realtor]

You're welcome, love :)

[@Juice84]

Do a review on "How Not To Die" by Dr.Greger. The book changed my whole outlook on life for the better. Now I'm a proud vegan =) Thanks for sharing the video.

[@sunrise1219]

I am very busy. .. A ~ I Luv Luv it all ...

[@HavootuKali]

lmao ive never seen that show but i felt the same after they killed off Sweets in Bones lol... i made a personally boycott for like 3 episodes i was so mad lol... and i just get way too involved in these shows... so i just stopped watching them all lmaoo... except how to get away with murder lol... i love viola and cant wait for that season to start.... anyhoo... im off topic lik great video A

[@jdsuggs08]

Have you watched Marco Polo on Netflix?

[@Amerie.]

*looks into your eyes* Looooove.

[@TaylorKingLive]

What lipstick is that?

[@sabisabi.]

The lipstick she is wearing in the video is Urban Decay's Vice in "disturbed" ~ she mentions it in the video.

[@TaylorKingLive]

Sabah Omer Thanks boo. Missed that part

[@sieshadees]

Are you a vegetarian?

[@jermainelindo6944]

spokesperson pop idol amerie

[@nveazie]

aye...first!

[@aliciakeyslover83]

why aren't you making regular booktube videos anymore?

[@pebbles987]

Because beauty videos are more popular

[@pebbles987]

Which is a good thing btw

[@TiffanyRayneOfficial]

She still does, she's just sharing the beauty part right now. Since everyone has been asking about her make up and skin/hair regimen. So this is the beauty part for now.

[@Amerie.]

Still definitely making book videos. I usually do 1 video a week, but now that I'll be having more non-bookish videos, I'm trying to do 2 videos a week instead of 1 (1 bookish video + 1 non-bookish video). I was on a writing deadline and building my new blog/website so I didn't get much done in the way of reading the last month and a half. But still expect weekly bookish videos in the future! (Plus, I did realize that I'd really neglected the "Beauty" aspect to "Books Beauty Ameriie" for a long time!)

[@aliciakeyslover83]

Great to hear! Because I love your Booktube videos. I read The Vegetarian and the first part to the Locke&Key graphic novels because of you and both were a great ride!

[@tatemunja1905]

This is random but could you do a work out video or clips you have amazing legs 😊

[@Amerie.]

Thank you, and I will keep this in mind for a future vid! :)

[@mimam4747]

I stopped watching The Good Wife because it was sooooo slow moving and it was repetitive so I gave up. Also the lead character was so lifeless and bland!!!

[@Amerie.]

ah darn, but yes, I can see why you felt that way. She's actually one of my less fave characters. Perhaps skip up into season 2 or 3? Diane is my fave, as is Carey!
