It's no secret I want glowy, hydrated skin. Aside from skincare (which is most important IMO) the best way to achieve glowy skin is when you mix foundation with a liquid highlighter. I love the Valentino Beauty V-Lighter in Rosa for that glowy foundation look and I knew I had to test it out when I saw it had over 2.4K reviews. ...

Silky Shirtdress Two Ways
You guys know I love a good versatile piece. And what's better than a silky shirtdress that can double as a fall duster? Yeah, I was pretty excited. I originally purchased this Iris & Ink Shirtdress to wear during NYFW with these strappy heels. But quickly discovered that I love it more as a duster paired with denim. ...
Favorite Foundations & Concealers
It's been a while since I've shared a new Beauty Talk with you guys. And if you've followed my blog for a while, you know it's one of my favorite things to write about! I personally love reading beauty reviews, or watching tutorials, and find these kinds of post super helpful. I've been getting a few emails about my makeup routine, (specifically foundations & concealers) and I wanted to share a few of my current favorites. I know everyone's skin is different, so I wanted to share a variety of products that I have purchased and used over the past several months. ...
Green Silk Dress
Hi Everyone! We are heading back to Texas tomorrow and I can not wait to share with you our Cabo Travel Guide. Many of you have emailed me asking for Cabo San Lucas suggestions and I will be sure to include all of our favorite places in the post!
In the meantime, I wanted to share with you a dress I picked up at Shoshanna during Fashion Week. I absolutely love the fit and color of this dress! I really don't own many colorful items like this, so it was fun to add a bold piece to my wardrobe. While the weather is still a bit chilly in Dallas, I paired it with my black tights and Dawn Levy coat (which is on major sale). However, I can't wait to wear it with these sandals this spring. It's truly a versatile dress that is perfect to wear as we transition seasons. My sister in law is getting married in April, and I plan to wear this to one of the bridal party events. It's the perfect pop of color!
Thanks for reading! xx

Pink Silk Blouse
Over the past year, I've really been trying to invest in wardrobe staples that don't seem to go out of style. As much as I love a silk blouse, they can definitely be hard on the wallet. Equipment is one of my favorite brands for silk pieces, but recently I tried this version from Vince Camuto (and it's under $100!)
Being the sucker that I am for a classic, silk blouse, this was hard to pass up. I love this with shorts, white pants, or these boyfriend jeans. What are some of your favorite brands for silk tops?

Oh bras. Let's be honest, it can be hard to find the best fit (I know I am not alone in this battle!). And sometimes, what "fits" isn't always the pretty. Undergarments are something we wear everyday, so I like to invest in something that makes me feel confident. If that means doing some extra research to find something that fits my body, I'm willing to do it. And when I am in the market, Nordstrom is the first place I start.
If you are looking skivvies, I'd recommend stopping by your local Nordstrom this Friday and Saturday (October 24 - 25) during the We Heart A Great Fit event. I love the cause behind this event and the awareness it promotes for women and breast cancer. For each bra purchased online or in-store,
Beauty Talk | Laying the Foundation
The perfect start to any makeup routine is a good base. I always use moisturizer or oil to give my face some hydration, but I also found out that it actually helps keeps my makeup on longer. Who knew? This CAUDALIE Beauty Elixir is one of my favorite ways to moisturize and give my makeup some extra lasting power. After I wash my skin, I spritz two pumps on my face. You can use before or after makeup, but I prefer before since it's packed with the finest ingredients to help smooth skin and tighten pores. I absolutely love this stuff but if you need a little more hydration or SPF be sure to apply after you use the elixir.
Let's talk coverage. To be honest, I have a love/hate relationship with foundation. It either looks to "cakey" or doesn't cover at all. Finally, I have found a happy medium. This Natural Performance Foundation by Lorac gives just the right amount of coverage and seems to stay on pretty good through out the day. (I always test my makeup after a day on the playground or carpool duty, if it can make it through that then it can make it through anything!)

The Only Red Lipstick I Wear During the Holidays
It's no surprise I am a big fan of neutral lips, but this time of year, I love to wear a red lipstick. It feels bold, festive and there's really nothing more classic than a red lip. However, I've learned over the years that all reds are not created equal. My favorite shade to wear during the holidays is 400 The Red from Armani Beauty. ...
