As someone who tests makeup and skincare quite often (perks of the job, I guess), it's a big deal to find something I love so much I continue to reach for and repurchase over others. My neutral lip combo from THIS Beauty (read here about the brand I started in 2022) is my tried and true lip color over anything else. I prefer a more softer approach to my makeup and I find these shades compliment any look. ...
Over the weekend, I went to Hilton Head to celebrate my SIL's bachelorette party. It was so much fun, but I was quickly reminded how I simply can't hang like I used to. Austin's sister, Caroline, and her friends were 7-8 years younger than me and let's just say, I needed my rest. It was such a blast though and honestly, I needed a little weekend getaway. Should I share our itinerary and where we went in Hilton Head? I did pack a few outfits that I loved getting to wear on the island. And if you follow me on IG, you know I am quite the planner when it comes to packing. I just find it so much easier to know exactly what I am wearing for each event and it also helps me not overpack. ...
September is here which means it's officially time for fall fashion. Don't get me wrong, it's still VERY warm in Dallas, but I can't help myself - plus the good stuff always goes quickly. Here are some items I have on my radar this month - in case you're looking for my top picks. I'm also sharing more fall style over on LTK. ...
Here’s a quick list of the sales you’ll want to know about before going into the holiday weekend. I already purchased this cardigan in grey (I also have in the color Oat) and contemplating a new serum my esthetician raves about (keep reading for the details). Hope you all have a safe weekend! ...
As Fall approaches, I've noticed myself beginning to edit my closet for the new season. It's a routine I follow every now and then – I donate or sell items I no longer wear and tidy up what remains. This allows me the opportunity to reassess and make smart purchases for the upcoming season.
My wardrobe usually stays pretty classic, and after browsing Saks, it was easy for me find a few essential pieces that are making their way into my shopping cart.
From a structured blazer to ballet flats, classic stripes, rounded handbags, and a good pair of well-loved denim, these fall staples are not just items on a checklist – they're practically my fall fashion game plan. ...
Ah, Amazon Prime Day—the online shopping event that fills our shopping carts with endless possibilities. As a seasoned shopper, I can confidently say that this 2-day event is worth checking out if you are looking to buy bigger items like the pebble ice maker (have and love, also available in a smaller size) or headphones. I'll be updating my Amazon Storefront as the day goes on, but here's my top 10 Amazon Prime deals. ...
It’s here: My Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023 picks have arrived, and I am thrilled to report that the sale is stocked with so (!) many good things – from wardrobe staples (trust me on these jeans) and warm-weather basics like this t-shirt to "buy now, wear later" additions like this structured blazer and this long coat. ...
Fourth of July celebrations are in full swing, and so are the sales. With discounts up to 70% off (!), it’s worth making the time to take a quick peek.
I included a mix of everything – from sun dresses (take a look at this one, I just bought for our upcoming vacation) and poolside picks in the form of chic swimwear (this Zimmerman suit is 35% off and in all sizes) and resort-ready coverups.
Here, a cheat sheet with the weekend’s best steals and deals. Happy shopping! ...
With summer officially here, I like to give my beauty bag a quick edit. Summer calls for minimal, easy makeup, lots of sunscreen, and skincare that helps control breakouts. Here are a few things I have on hand this time of year: ...
In the realm of wardrobe staples, this Amazon tank top has officially reached uniform status. I'm not one to break the bank on basics like t-shirts and tanks, but I definitely have high standards for something that I plan to wear a few times a week.
In the 11 years I've worked in the industry, I would consider myself somewhat of a "basics" expert. I have worked with several brands that make wardrobe staples and often get PR samples to test and try clothing. This tank really does rank the highest on my list — and it's only $20. ...
