5 Pieces to Help You Build Your Spring Wardrobe

It's always this time of year that I start to pull out more white accessories, lighter layers and pieces that can transition well for the upcoming spring season. For me, it always comes down to good layering cardigans or dusters. I live in those this time of year. And to keep things from feeling "too wintery" I throw on my White Booties (similar options here and here) (or a lighter handbag) to give the look a fresh approach to the new season. I know many of you are also in the same boat. It's chilly where you live, you don't want to buy new winter clothes, but you want to update your wardrobe to where it's practical and seasonally appropriate. Look no further — I've compiled a list of my top choices for light layers and all things that will transition well into spring. ...

Whether you are heading from desk to dinner or wanting a new approach to styling a sweater dress, here's a couple ways I've been wearing it lately.  ...

If You’re Not Double Cleansing Yet, Read This

I shared in this post that I double cleanse as part of my skincare routine, but have never really gone into detail about why and how. Well, it started a few years ago when I went to my dermatologist for acne. Of course we all hope for a miracle solution that will magically erase all our blemishes, but instead, my derm suggested something I hadn't tried before: double cleansing at night. Let's just say I was game to try anything at that point, and bottom line: it's done wonders for my skin. It's even become part of my nightly regimen. ...

Trending for Spring: The Satin Blouse

Satin, silky, pajama style tops have always had a special place in my heart. Even at 25 weeks pregnant I still try to find options that can work over the bump — although I do miss wearing them tucked into denim. I've had several requests for pregnancy outfits, and to be honest, I don't love a lot of "maternity" options out there. I am trying to wear what I can that is "non-maternity" (with the exception of pants of course). I have started a new topic where you can look at my recent Pregnancy Outfits in one easy place. I'll be adding more next week too!  ...

If You Like Neutral Nails, Try These Colors

Like many of you, I love to have my nails painted. Whether it's a traditional polish, gel or dip, there's just something about it that makes me feel like I can take on the day when my nails are done. A question that I get asked quite often is about the colors I get, the shape and nail salons in Dallas.  ...

Dressing the Bump

The past couple of weeks "the bump" has really started to show. And to be honest, it's been tricky for me to find outfits that 1. fit or 2. I feel comfortable in, especially given my love for denim. But if there's one thing I'm sticking to during this pregnancy, it's my love for basics. I'm in the process of writing some content centered around "pregnancy basics" where I'll be highlighting the best basic pieces I've been able to pair with my non-maternity items like this plaid coat or some of my blazers. ...

All-Natural, Glow-Boosting Skincare to use This Winter

My skin hasn't been the same since finding out I was pregnant. If you've read my skincare posts before, you know I have acne/oily prone skin. Getting that "glow" was never really on my radar since I was using blotting papers by noon. But now, things have changed. My skin is dry and frankly, the weather isn't helping. I'm doing everything I can to get that glow. ...
