For the longest time, I was adamant that I wouldn’t get lash extensions. I just didn’t really see the point. My lashes are pretty long naturally, and I also use a lash growth product that works very well. Then, I saw my friend Ramona wearing them on our trip to Puerto Vallarta, and I loved how they looked even when… View Post
Do you like floral prints? I definitely do on dresses, but I wasn’t sure about floral prints on other things. When I saw this floral print bomber jacket, I thought it was unique and fun. I’m pretty obsessed with jackets so I don’t mind a statement piece like this that I can throw on every now and then. I’m a… View Post
This post is sponsored by Puerto Vallarta Tourism Board. All opinions are my own. I can’t believe it’s already been two months since Ieft Puerto Vallarta.

What’s your go-to fall style? For me, it’s jeans and jackets. I’m really into faux suede moto jackets this fall, more than any other pieces. If I’m honest, I used to only buy real leather and suede. But recently, I’ve realized there are a few reasons that buying faux has its place in fashion. Why I Love Faux Suede First,… View Post
A few weeks ago, I traveled to Portland for work. Just like my last trip, I only had about 30 hours in the city. As I learned last time, it’s pretty amazing what you can do with 30 hours in a city. Since I was able to see so much last time, I decided to do a little day trip… View Post

If you’d ask me at 30 if I’d ever get botox, I would have said a resounding NO. Why would I want to put a toxin in my face? I like my face. The older I get, the more I realize I should never say never. I personally think women (and men) should be comfortable talking about their choice whether… View Post
