Fall is my favorite season and I love Halloween. Honestly, I’m not much for decorating, though. Don’t get me wrong, I like Halloween and fall decorations, but I generally only focus on Christmas decorating. This year, I thought it would be fun to create a simple fall-focused craft. So, I came up with this easy DIY…

I’m in love with my black and white tribal print dress. I recently got it on major summer discount for under $10! Although my dress was technically from summer, it is a great piece I plan to wear this fall because it is made of a thicker material and will be easy to wear with tights and booties…
I’m new to training. I’ve used running (specifically sprint intervals) over the years to maintain or lose weight, but I’ve never considered myself a runner. For the first time, I’m training for a race and I’ve been frustrated on all of the small injuries I’ve experienced already, only a couple months into training. As a…
No matter what season it is, nothing completes my look better than stylish sunglasses. Since I live in Arizona and it’s sunny more than 300 days a year, I own a lot of sunglasses. I check out people’s shades constantly. 1. Determine the Right Shape for your Face Is your face round? Oval? Heart? Do…
I never even imagined I would travel to Argentina. It’s not that I wasn’t interested, it just never crossed my mind as a possibility. I am beyond lucky to travel to some amazing places for my job. It is wonderful to get to see new places, but what I love the most is all of…

Fashion week is here! I didn’t get to attend this year (because I was in South America!), but I still love to browse through the photo galleries online to look at all the pretty clothes and makeup. Many times, runway makeup doesn’t really work for everyday life. It can be too avant-garde or over the top….
Being a part of the #GalSquad with The Red Door Spas has some major perks. Namely, I get to try out spa treatments every once in awhile. Right before I left for a two-week work trip, I had the chance to experience their Mint Julep Pedicure. This was my first time visiting the Red Door…
Like so many other working moms, I don’t have a lot of time after work to make healthy meals. That’s why I love using my slow cooker; I can throw a few ingredients into it and let it sit there all day. When dinner rolls around, I have a healthy and warm meal to serve…
Will they like me? Am I dressed okay? Is this sweater too tight? Why am I doing this again? These thoughts swam through my mind as I prepared for my first Meetup in December 2012, a month after my first daughter was born. As the first of my friends to have a child, I was…
My favorite fall color trend is burgundy. I love burgundy because the jewel tone is so flattering on my olive skin tone and I think it works well on a lot of skin types. I’ve seen so many burgundy dresses online and in stores, but my absolute favorite is this a-line dress from White House…
I’m somewhat hesitant to share my first TV appearance because it didn’t go as well as I had hoped. I’m probably being overly self-critical. I keep seeing the areas where I made little mistakes or could have done better. But I need to get over myself. I mean, how cool is it that I was…
