3 Ways to Wear a Midi Polka Dot Skirt

I’m someone that likes to shop. You probably realize that already since you’re reading this on my fashion and beauty blog.

Polka Dot Tights

If there’s any fall/winter accessory that I deem necessary for my closet, it’s a good pair of polka dot tights. Why? They add so much to an outfit and can make the simplest look so much more exciting and chic. I probably used to buy a new pair every single year due to ripping until…

My Top 5 Ole Henriksen Products

You might be familiar with my “Brand Spotlight” series where I haul a bunch of products from one brand and talk about everything I loved and whatever I didn’t love so much. Today, I’m going to be starting a new series where I just talk about favorites from a certain brand. These are not “first…

Recent Empties

It’s been a while since I’ve written an Empties post which is why there are going to be so many products to talk about today. In fact, there were so many, I actually had to pitch a few that weren’t “memorable enough” just so this post wouldn’t be overwhelmingly long. I’m planning on getting back…

My husband and I recently got to visit the beautiful city of Lisbon for two days. Unfortunately, we were supposed to actually get 3 days in the city but thanks to delays and flight cancellations, we lost a full day. I do believe we still managed to get the best out of our time there…

Recent Favorites ( September & October)

I’m probably not alone in saying I can’t believe it’s already November. Ohio, per usual, did its thing where you only got to enjoy about 2 weeks worth of true fall weather and fast forwarded through the best part. It could still prove me wrong and give us a few more nice weeks but I’m…

Leopard Accents for Fall

If you know me well, you know that I’m willing to wear leopard all year ’round, no exceptions. Doesn’t matter what season it is… but there is something about wearing leopard in the fall. It just meshes with the fall colors so well! One of my main color combinations for fall is definitely green +…

My husband and I recently came back from a 9 day Portugal trip for our 2nd wedding anniversary. I’ve never gotten so many questions before about how and why we chose that very place to travel to. Portugal isn’t the most common destination so people were curious. We had multiple reasons for choosing Portugal: It’s…

Utility Jacket : Four Ways

I have always been drawn to Utility jackets, especially when I was in my camo phase in high school (yes, that was a thing). The first utility jacket I ever got was a present from my family from Zara, and it’s one of the two that I’ll be showing off today. I’m trying to get…

Best of Beauty 2018: Make Up

I didn’t realize what a good year 2018 was for beauty until I rounded up all my favorites and realized I had a whopping 21 items – and that’s with me trying to make cuts! However 2018 was not all rainbows and unicorns , I am a big mascara junkie and only have one mascara…

(Sun)Dress to Impress

We all love a good Amazon find and today, I’ll be sharing a sundress I recently picked up that’s under $25 and is easy to dress up or down. Amazon clothing can very much be hit or miss and it’s always exciting when you snag a good one. The dress I’ll be talking about today…

Items Actually Worth Picking Up During the Nordstrom Sale

If you’re someone that follows bloggers and influencers on Instagram or via blog subscriptions, you probably fall into two categories: love all #Nsale coverage or soooo over it.
