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

I’m on a healthy snack kick and I also want to find ways to get my kids to try new foods. That’s why I decided to try making these honey roasted chickpeas.

I received this curved hem animal print dress from Shein. All opinions are my own. Do you remember when I told you I didn’t like animal print? Well, I have recently learned those thoughts were way off. I mean, I do still think animal prints can sometimes look dated, cheesy, and even a little trashy. Yep, I said it. But… View Post
This post is sponsored by Carvana. All opinions are my own. Car shopping. Do you love it or hate it? It’s something I’ve done so infrequently, that I personally didn’t even know where to begin.
