One of the biggest trends this fall is animal print! I've always loved cheetah/leopard print (mostly thanks to the Cheetah Girls) and think it's timeless. I used to love zebra back in my middle school days but started to love it again when I started seeing the pattern in other color options like my sweater above! Snakeskin is another classic that is really popular this year. When styling animal print pieces, you can keep the rest of your outfit simple and neutral with black, white, other browns, and even chambray/denim. If you'd like to ...
Summer Desk Refresh & Where To Get Formal Graduation Invitations
I recently changed out my desk decor from all white & gold to this! I would link them, but most items are from the Target dollar spot. Keep your eye out on it for the next few months when it's back to school time. They always have trendy stationary items and desk toppers :) Something I can share with you though are two new items. One is my new business card and the other is stationary! I love having customized stationary on my desk whether I'm jotting down notes, lists, or need to send a personalized note. My business cards from ...
How To Achieve Beachy Waves
The hairstyle that I wear the most is this beachy wave look! It's great year-round and looks effortless. Because my hair is naturally curly, I've never been a fan of tight spiral curls. Recently I switched tools and was pleasantly surprised to find that I actually achieve an even better wave with this $20 iron! First, I think it's important to have a wand or curling iron that is the same size from the top to the bottom. My previous one worked was bigger at the top and smaller at the bottom. I love that this one from Conair (Prime eligible ...
Our Weekend Trip To Toledo, Ohio
This past weekend we headed to Toledo to get a feel of our future city! If all goes as planned, my husband's job will be transferring him to Ohio within the next few months. This is a huge life-changing event because we're in our first year of marriage and relocating to a city where we have no family or friends. This is super scary, super exciting, and super crazy for us all! We stayed at the Home2 Suites by Hilton in Perrysburg (a suburb of Toledo) for the duration of our trip. This was a prime location because you're in Levis Commons ...
How To Build Your Baby’s Wardrobe On A Budget
This post is sponsored by Carter's; however, all thoughts and opinions expressed are my own. We all know that babies can get expensive. Between the number of doctor's appointments within their first year of life, diapers, car seats, and more, the cost can really add up. If you're anything like us, you probably keep a strict budget each month for anything other than the absolute necessities. Another big baby expense is clothing because those tiny little newborns grow up to be toddlers within the blink of an eye! ...
Pixi Beauty Liquid Lipstick Review
MatteLast Liquid Lipsticks c/o Pixi Beauty from left to right: Real Red, Pastel Petal, Peony Pink, Au Naturelle, Prettiest Pink, Matte Beige, Orange Red, Really Rose, Berry Boost I'm not a beauty guru but I have been enjoying trying new makeup products lately! One makeup product I don't wear often is lipstick. I believe it has to do with insecurities when I was younger. I've always wanted fuller lips and the top and bottom to be closer in size. However, now when I'm almost done with a makeup look, I feel like something is missing and I ...
