When I travel, I do my best to do as little shopping as possible. I try to focus on the experience and snapping some photos vs. leaving with a bunch of souvenirs. However, I have one thing that I collect whenever I travel …
What’s Inside of My Skincare Cabinet
Today I’m excited to give you all a peek inside of my skincare cabinet! Beauty is only skin deep, so might as well love (and take good care of) the skin that you’re in! Not only am I going to be sharing my favorite skincare brands & products with you, I’m also talking about the ones that didn’t quite hit the mark for me. Fair warning, this is a longer post, but I've organized all the products by type so it's a bit easier to digest …

Hey lovelies, I hope that you’re all doing well! (Quick heads up that today's post is for readers who are 21 & up.) Today I’m going to teach you how to make one of my current go-to cocktails, a Lilac Lady.

This is 25 – Celebrating a Quarter Century, Quarantined
This is 25. Quarantine style! On Friday, April 3rd, 2020 I celebrated my 25th birthday! Needless to say, with everything that's been going on recently, my birthday didn't really look anything like I'd planned.

Yep... Obviously, none of that was able to happen. …
