Instagram Photographer to Follow // The Slow Traveler
I’m not much of a traveler, and living in a beautiful resort town where people choose to vacation fills me with a certain kind of joy, so I can always tell when I’m getting a bit overwhelmed with my life because I have this sudden urge to go somewhere new… to just disappear from one …
Beauty // Jade Roller (or Chi Roller) New Anti-Aging Fave
A few weeks ago Helena (from BrooklynBlonde.com) shared a similar jade roller on her Insta Stories and I was so intrigued, I hopped right over to Amazon and bought one. As obsessed as I am with my foam roller to massage out the kinks in my back and legs, which I’ve used nearly every night …
Beauty Trend // Faux Freckles & Freckle Tattoos
I’ve always had a light dusting of freckles across my nose and cheeks, which appear darker in the summer when my skin is glowing warm with a summer tan, and I guess because they were so light, I never really gave them too much thought. There were never so many that I hated them, like …
Instagram Artist to Follow // Nikelle Løvaas
Instagram, like Pinterest, is such an amazing place to find artists, photographers, and just general beauty and inspiration, curated from the viewpoint of so many brilliant creative minds, it’s the main reason I use the app now. I love social media for that concept alone; the idea that you can either share snippets of your …
Beauty // Simple Ombre Dotted Holiday Nails – Video
I was working with a brand on a beauty campaign for a quick social media nail art video when they decided to cancel the campaign altogether… so I decided, since my little video was already done, and since it’s still technically the holidays, I may as well share it here with you. Watch my Simple …
Beauty // NAILS: Pink + Black Abstract Nail Art Manicure
Okay, so I haven’t done a nail art manicure in AGES… and it’s because I rarely actually am into nail art too much anymore and I stick to basic black or classic red at all times. But I was inspired to do a little fleshy pink manicure with black outlines and it was a major …
What An Inspiration // Breast Cancer Awareness Love
With all the Fall goodness and focus on Halloween, it’s easy to forget that October is also Breast Cancer Awareness month. And as a woman, it’s a concern that’s ingrained in my psyche, though men can be diagnosed with this awful disease too. It should be on all of our minds. And the focus should …
If It’s Still Warm Out, It’s Still SUMMER! Dove’s got us covered
Talking about deodorant is kind of a funny thing. But wanting to smell good is kind of high on my list as a human. We all know that if we somehow forget our deodorant, we worry about it all day long, especially on warm summer days spent out by the pool, the lake, or the …

On Friday, I FINALLY got to Kylie Jenner’s online makeup haven KylieCosmetics.com in time to order a new lip kit color before they sold out. Until then, I had tried with each color release to get one, but couldn’t. So finally, I win {well, Kylie actually wins, but…} we’ll see how it is and let …
Beauty // Brow Tips to Accentuate Your Features Like a Pro
As someone who completely disregarded eyebrow tweezing advice, and over-plucked her own brows in the ’90s to get those perfectly skinny 90s brows, let me assure you that the rumors are true. If you over-tweeze your brows on the regular, they will not grow back. I’m not sure why this isn’t true for any other …
Beauty // 9 of My Makeup Must-Haves & Current Nail Color Du Jour
Just like with fashion, personal style, and home decor, I like to mix a nice balance of drugstore brands and designer items {high-end and low} into my makeup bag, or well, makeup drawer, rather, because I like using what works. So if it’s $3 or $30, I don’t care. If I like it, I use …
The Prettiest Hair Crowns, Headbands & Accessories
Oh MAN these handmade hair accessories by Deepa Gurnani are pretty, aren’t they? I’ve had quite a taxing week really, and haven’t had much time to create content and really wasn’t going to post today at all, but when I opened yet another email with the word “festival” or “Coachella” in the subject, I was …
