Are you in a makeup rut? Personally, I know I am. I tend to stick to my 5-minute no-makeup look most days of the week. I hardly ever throw on lipstick or veer very far from my standard brown eyeshadows. It’s not that I don’t love trying out new makeup – I do! I just…
Thank you, U-Pack for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own. There are so many different things you need to plan and think about when you’re planning a move.

Thank you, U-Pack for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own. What’s better; should you hire a moving company or drive a rental truck yourself? There are so many decisions to make when you have to move your life across town or across the country. We should know – we’ve moved roughly 9 times…
There are three major sunglasses trends for fall that I’m absolutely loving. I’m already a huge fan of the cat-eye shape. I wear it all the time. There are some new trends I tried that I thought I’d hate, but actually loved! For example, I was sure I would hate a round shape on my…
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of PEOPLE®, Real Simple®, and Southern Living®. The opinions and text are all mine. Moms, I know you can relate. It is so hard to find “me time” isn’t it? I don’t know if you’re like me, but even when I do get alone time, I often…
Thank you, Hilton Hotels, Toyota, San Diego Zoo, and LEGOLAND for Collaborating with us on this story! In July, we had the chance to take our kids to southern California for a long weekend. Hilton invited us to check out three of their properties as part of their California Road Trip promotion. We also arranged…
Baby oil is a total multi-tasker. I just realized it the other day. While I was cleaning out my medicine cabinet, I noticed I had a whole bottle. Since my babies don’t need it anymore, and I haven’t used it to tan since I was an idiot in HS, I figured there must be other…

Last month, I had the chance to visit Lisbon and Porto in Portugal. I didn’t do much research in advance of my trip, but I was pleasantly surprised that the work conference I attended brought me to some of the must-visit spots in Porto. If you have a chance to visit, here are the 7…

Thank you Dove for sponsoring this post. Dove Intensive Repair Shampoo and Conditioner works to repair hair and stop 90% of damage before it happens!

If you had asked me if I could wear a jacquard dress, I would have said no. I would have thought the knit material would cling to the areas I try to hide. I never thought a jacquard dress would hang right on me. Well, as I’ve said before, you’ve gotta try everything to know…
I recently traveled to Portugal for a work conference. I opted to spend my first night in Lisbon before heading to Porto. Although I was massively jet-lagged, I was determined to see some of Lisbon in the few hours I had available. Luckily, Pats contacted me a few days prior to my departure, offering me…
One of my dear friends is pregnant with her first child. She’s been a bit nervous about it all, so I’ve tried to talk to her my experience. One thing we talked about early on was the baby registry must-haves you actually need. So many parents get overwhelmed and go totally overboard on buying way…
