Over the years, I've struggled a lot with burnout. I'm always on the go, and I'm not someone who likes to take breaks. It's taken a while for me to understand that rest is productive because I'm the kind of person who will literally work themselves until they are exhausted and crash. It doesn't matter if it's at work, back when I was in undergrad (where I was a triple major), etc. I'm goi[...]
Sweatpants are great for relaxed days and weekend errands, but I personally like to find ways to dress them up a bit. No longer reserved for off days, sweatpants and cute loungewear along with sweatsuits have become more popular now that people are spending more time at home due to the pandemic. The question is: how can you wear sweatpants, and still look fly, fierce, and fabulous?[...]
Sephora's Welcome Back Sale kicked off last week and continues until August 23rd online and in stores. All Beauty Insider Members (which is free to join!) will receive $15 off a $75 or more purchase, or $20 off $100 or more when they use the code WELCOMEBACK. I also want to remind you guys that Sephora has been offering 10% off of all purchases for healthcare workers, but I'm not sure if[...]
I love to read, but as a woman on the go, I don't always have a lot of time to sit down and curl up with a good book. This is why I love listening to audiobooks because I'm able to listen to the books that I've been wanting to read while doing other things (cleaning, working out at the gym, eating lunch at work, driving home, etc). This also allows me to finish the books faster because I[...]
Tomorrow us regular folk get access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, and ya girl has been plotting. I've been sure to bring y'all all the tea on the sale from the beginning, and show you guys what's been on my radar, along with my beauty picks for the sale as well. Now that we're all about to have access, I want to show you guys my top five picks from the sale: 1. UGG Cozette Gen[...]
When I saw this "Make It Sexy" brown faux leather midi dress on Fashion Nova's website (Retail: $44.99 before coupons), I immediately fell in love. I really love leather and faux leather pieces, and I especially tend to gravitate towards non-traditional pieces. I feel like everybody goes for the staple leather jacket, but there's nothing like a sexy pair of leather pants or a leather dres[...]
When it comes to perfume, I'm pretty picky. It's rare that I'm in the beauty section of a store, and smell a perfume that screams my name. I like sweet scents, along with warm florals, and sometimes slightly masculine scents. Over the past year, I built up my perfume collection a little bit, as I was on a quest to find myself a grown and sexy signature scent. I've come a long way from Lov[...]
We're inching closer and closer to general public access for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (is the 19th circled on your calendar? Because it's circled on mine), and tomorrow those with Insider status get access. I ran down all my picks for the sale in a previous post (including those $50 Ugg Slides), and today I wanted to focus on my beauty picks since there are some great deals in the b[...]
Back when I was trying to get my skincare routine together, I realized that I needed to replace my go-to facial cleanser. The one that I was using at the time seemed to be really drying out my skin (I have oily skin, and my face was starting to feel really dry and stripped). I wanted to find something that would be gentle, yet effective at cleansing my skin without leaving it feeling stri[...]
Would you believe that this entire outfit head to toe was under $100?! I picked up this green tweed vest in-store at Zara during their summer sale for $12.99 (no longer available online, but check out a super similar option from SHEIN below!), and tried to hunt down the matching jacket and shorts as well to no avail. I remembered seeing the entire outfit before on Instagram, but was ki[...]
