This post is sponsored by Disneyland. All opinions are my own. When I was six years old, my parents took me Disneyland. It was my first time on an airplane and I can distinctly remember the excitement leading up to this trip. Given my fond memories of my first time at Disneyland, I wanted my kids to have that experience… View Post
A couple weeks ago, my parents were in town. They love to visit botanical gardens, so we decided to check out the South Coast Botanic Garden. There are several different Los Angeles Botanic gardens, but this one was the closest to where my parents were staying, so we decided to check it out. South Coast Botanic Garden The botanic garden… View Post
A couple weeks ago, I went shopping for a few new outfits for an upcoming work event. I found this military-inspired, army green utility dress, and I absolutely fell in love with it. I’ve always been into military-inspired pieces. I happen to love the army green color and the extra pockets you often find with this style. I’m also such… View Post
On my recent trip to Toronto, I had the chance to visit Niagara Falls. One of my colleagues decided to rent a car for the day, and I learned it’s an easy hour-ish drive from Toronto to Niagara Falls. Although I wouldn’t say visiting Niagara Falls was high on my bucket list, it felt almost wrong not to see the… View Post
Earlier this year, I got my first professional, custom, nail art manicure, and I’ve been hooked ever since. I try to change up my manicure every two to three weeks and I get most of my inspiration from Pinterest and Instagram. I actually found my current spring nail art while looking on my finder on Instagram. It’s the perfect spring… View Post
I’ve been on a bit of a health kick lately after staring 2019 off not so well. I had the best of intentions when I started this year, to focus on my health. But moving to a new state is very stressful, and a lot of my healthy habits slipped earlier this year. Finally, a couple weeks ago, I got… View Post
I rarely have time to shop. Most of the time, I either purchase things online (and then return 99%). Sometimes, I’ll grab something really quickly and take it home to try later. That’s exactly what happened when I saw this floral print bodycon dress. I’m normally not really into figure hugging dresses like this one. But there was just something… View Post
A few weeks ago, I had the chance to visit Toronto for the first time. I’d heard good things about the city, but I had no expectations of my visit. Honestly, I’ve been so busy lately, I didn’t even have time to pre-plan the trip. Normally, I have a list of things I’ll do when I get to a new… View Post
Last week I had to go shopping for some new items for an upcoming shoot. I haven’t shopped in the mall in forever. Most of my shopping, I do online, just due to lack of time. I missed perusing the mall because that’s the only time that I get to explore and spot trends. Almost immediately, I quickly realized I… View Post
This bedroom gallery wall post is sponsored by Minted. All opinions are my own. When I moved to California earlier this year, I decided not to move most of our furniture. It was mostly all from the early 2000s, and not in the best shape after a couple cross-country moves. It was a great decision. It’s a fresh start in… View Post
Real talk ladies – for the majority of my life, I’ve hidden my legs. I specifically hid my legs from the knee up because of cellulite and a general dislike for my chubby knees. I’d wear knee length or midi-length dresses because I do like my calves, but I’d never wear shorts. Something shifted for me in the last year…. View Post
A few weeks ago, Crepe Erase invited me to attend a private brunch event at Norah in West Hollywood. Their spokesperson, Courtney Thorne-Smith, hosted the event. So, a couple dozen influencers and I had the chance to meet her and try out all of the Crepe Erase products. Now that I’m in my late 30s, I’ve started to noticed a… View Post
Working from home has one major perk—I very rarely need to dress up anymore. For the past 15 years, I’ve worked in a corporate setting, so I needed to have a lot of ‘work clothes’. My work uniform the last few years, was a blazer and cropped skinny pants, paired with heels. Although I don’t mind dressing up for work,… View Post
It’s almost Cinco de Mayo! Ever since I first moved to Phoenix in 2004, I’ve been a fan of that day. I mean, it’s another excused to enjoy great Mexican food and yummy drinks with my friends. After living in Boston for awhile, I can honestly say I missed Mexican food the most. Although I would make homemade versions of… View Post
A few weeks ago, I got to spend less than two days in New Orleans. Although I wish the trip could have been longer, I forgot just how much I adore this city. I also remembered just how much you can do with 36 hours in New Orleans. The first time I went to New Orleans was back in college…. View Post
