First of all, let me say this: I don’t know who needs to hear this. I am fully aware that I run a wanna-be fashion blog, and I’m probably the last person you’d expect to post a religion-oriented message. But He’s not letting this go, so here it is. Last weekend, Alex said something that I had completely forgotten about until tonight. He made a … Continue reading Hating God
Okay, you guys! I’ve officially got a new obsession, and this time, it’s CHEAP! (Hallelujah, amirite?!) For New Year’s Eve, I was Alex’s date to a black-tie wedding. First of all, I’ve never been to a NYE wedding before, but now I’m tempted to put that in my back pocket… Secondly, I had absolutely nothing to wear. I never do this, but I waited until … Continue reading Rent the Runway, and then Strut Down It
There are levels to this, guys. Self-tanning isn’t easy. It’s time consuming, and it can be kind of easy to mess up (depending on what products you use). That’s exactly why I want to show (1) my favorite products to use, as well as when/why, and (2) tips/tricks to getting your best bronze glow! For a quick pick-me-up: I love using Neutrogena tanning towelettes. I’ve used … Continue reading My Favorite Self-Tanners (and tips & tricks to using them!)
Looking up motivational quotes about working out is half the battle, right? This post is for my ladies that, like me, reformulate their gym goals 5-6 times a year when they are trying to “get back into the swing of things” – let’s be honest, we’re swinging back and forth at this point. I can’t take credit for this post; this plan was formulated … Continue reading Beginner Workout Regimen (3x per week)
Just in time for the holidays, Sephora is having its huge semi-annual sale again, and in typical I-can’t-get-enough-Sephora fashion, I have been preparing for weeks. Sephora (usually) only hosts two sales per year, but this year, they surprised us with an appreciation sale at the end of Summer. [If you missed that blog post where I shared my recommendations, I’ll link that here.] This winter … Continue reading Sephora VIB/Rouge Sale
Just as I have shared my tips and tricks to finding and styling the perfect LBD, I want to share with you guys how I wear a seemingly unwearable piece – the black leather skirt. In the past, the idea of a leather skirt gives me a very “Pretty Woman” vibe – not something you would want to wear around the office, or say, Thanksgiving … Continue reading The Perfect Little Black (Leather) Skirt
YOU GUYS! What a SALE! Loft is having a 50% off EVERYTHING sale, PLUS you’ll get free shipping with the code “SURPRISE” when used online. If you’re a young professional with a growing professional closet, then you need to jump all up on, in, and around this sale.

Sephora basically sprung onto everyone a VIB appreciation sale as a way to showcase their new rewards system (an increase in points-per-dollar and a cash back option in point redemption). I honestly love the new reward options, and this sale was a perfect surprise for me to grab a few things I’ve had my eye on, but didn’t want to bite the bullet just yet! … Continue reading Haul: Sephora Appreciation Sale
Drunk Elephant has taken the skincare world by storm, and for good reason. Their products are full of top of the line ingredients and they are a completely clean brand, meaning they are formulated without any sulfates, artificial dyes, or scents. Long story short: this is one hell of a brand, but it comes at a price. Because of the hefty price tag, I was … Continue reading Drunk Elephant: Acid Trip (Review)
About a year ago, I asked my Twitter followers to tell me whether or not lash extensions were worth it. The Poll landed at about 60/40, with most people telling me that extensions were not worth the hassle; even yet, here I am, giving you my thoughts on my experience with eyelash extensions. My lashes aren’t the worst lashes you’ve ever seen, but they’re definitely … Continue reading Eyelash Extensions: Worth the Hype, or Nah?
