Summer Playlist

This playlist took me forever to do. I started it back in April and slowly started adding songs. Part of the problem is that I love listening to old playlists and going through Spotify’s suggested playlists/moods. I wasn’t in a big rush to finish this one… but now that it’s about an hour long, I…

Five Favorite Lip Colors Right Now

For not really being that into makeup, I have recently realized that I’m pretty particular about lipstick shades and I have my favorites. It’s not even that I have two or three, I have about eight that I find myself rotating through depending on my mood, outfit, and the occasion. Lipstick is also pretty personal….

Nautical Inspiration with Macy’s

I put together another outfit to celebrate Macy’s markdown event that starts today and runs through the 29th. Receive 20% off sale with code “BIG” at checkout. So many great things are marked down even more so now is a good time to stock up on some essentials if you’re in the market or have…

But in other ways, so much has happened over ten years that high school feels like eons ago. I graduated from high…

Nordstrom Anniversary Picks

The Nordstrom anniversary sale is live for non-cardholders. Last week’s post stirred up a lot of feedback, most of which agreed that the overhype of the sale was annoying. I promise, this is going to be my one post about it and then we can go about living the rest of our lives 😉 THINGS…

Sun Shirt Update

Remember a couple of weeks ago when I bought this sun shirt and declared it awesome? I had worn it for one shore trip and was pretty confident that it was amazing. Well, three weeks later, the two shirts are my most worn pieces of clothing. I’ve had one weekend down the shore, two separate…
