New Year's Resolutions are a funny thing. Christmas ends, we are all in a post-holiday slump, and suddenly we must pick a random goal and cross our fingers that we can actually follow through with whatever goal we have set for ourselves. From weight loss, to financial gains, the list of "goals" is never-ending. The problem is is that rarely we ever stick to our guns and follow through. Life gets crazy and suddenly its February and we have lost sight of everything we promised ourselves in Januar[...]

Fall is my absolute favorite time of year- my birthday, PSL's (lol basic I know), snuggly weather, Halloween movies..... the list goes on. It might come as a shock, however, that I have ZERO fall home decor items.. GASP! As many of you know, we recently moved to Dallas and have been slowly (or not so slowly because I'm the most impatient person ever) filling our apartment from the ground up. This includes purchasing a couch, a TV, coffee table...the whole 9 yards. So fall decor has truly not bee[...]

So since it's my birthday (shout out fellow Libra's!!!) and I am officially a quarter of a century old... I thought I'd share with you 25 Simple Little Things that I love, that I've learned, and that I hope to achieve along this crazy little thing called life. Enjoy!   Things that I love: 1. My friends and family This one is very cliché... I realize... but if there is one thing in this life that everyone needs, it's a strong support system. I am so in love with my true friends that e[...]

Happy Sunday! This post is long overdue and I apologize for that but I have received so many questions about our recent move + what we've been up to lately that I felt like a blog post would be the best way to convey it all! Here is the rundown:   Well.. we moved! Zach and I packed up a u-haul and headed North to Dallas aka our new home last Tuesday. For those that don't know, we lived in San Antonio for most of our lives but we decided that Dallas was a better fit for the both of us.[...]

Packing is so stressful. It doesn't matter if I am packing for a 2-day road trip or a 2- week cross-country vacay, I have always struggled when it comes to packing efficiently. Here is how it usually goes: I typically procrastinate until the last second to get started "I leave tomorrow so I'll pack tomorrow, its fine", overpack "I know I'm going to the beach, but it might get cold and what if I need this coat?", and half the time I forget to pack something important "Hello, front desk please...[...]

Today I am excited to share with you a guide for visiting San Antonio, TX. I have lived here for 15 years now and so I'm compiling a list of the best restaurants, hotels, activities, and sights to see on your next trip to good ol' San Antone! The food: San Antonio has some of the best Mexican food out there as it is so close to the border of Mexico! You can't go wrong with a good hole-in-the-wall taco shop, and lucky for us this city is full of them. Instead of focusing solely on the Mexican[...]

The sun is out, the flowers are blooming, and its time to take a step back and examine all aspects of your life- your relationship to your home to your technology- and consider... are you living as efficiently as possible? 🌻 Its so easy to become bogged down and cluttered with our everyday life that sometimes all we need is a little reset. Spring is all about new life and new beginnings and so what better time to make life improvements than the season of NEW! This spring, I challenge you to[...]

Hi friends! I get a lot of questions on products that I use for my everyday make-up routine. I haven't quite braved the YouTube world yet so a how-to video is out of the question (maybe one day!)... BUT I am here to attempt to write out my exact routine in a blog post for you! I will try and describe exactly what I do as clearly as I can but as always, if you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to leave a comment and I will be happy to answer them for you :) I am not an affiliate for any o[...]
