After a long, rough month, I am super happy for it to be over. March 2016 will forever be the worst month of my life, for the sole reason that I lost my first love: my dad. I don't want to get into that, as vulnerable as I'm feeling. This is a happy post, talking about favorites! With all the bad that has happ…

I'm always looking for new books to read, whether they're fiction, nonfiction, memoir, or a genre I've been particularly passionate about as of late: self help. Now, when I say self help I don't mean what you think I mean. I feel as though self help books have a bad reputation but they are so far from …

I'm on a shopping hiatus because I went crazy this month, with good intent. Retail therapy does wonders for the soul and I don't care what anyone says! There were lots of beauty releases this month and I fell in love with every single one of them. I've been reorganizing my beauty collection, making room fo…

I was convinced this new nail color (new to me) was from the Spring 2016 Essie Collection but when I went to write this blog post, I was sadly mistaken. I picked up Stones n Roses last week after falling in love in the drugstore beauty aisle (haven't we all fallen in love in that aisle?) and immediately put it in…

Another week has came and gone... and in a few days, March will be over. This can definitely go down as the worst month of my life and I'll be happy when it's over. Losing a parent is truly the most heart wrenching experience and I may write a philosophical blog about it because my goodness, I'm feeling a …

I used to hate getting newsletter emails and would unsubscribe from everything in my inbox. I liked an inbox that was clean, neat, and easy to look through. I still do really enjoy a clean inbox, and I achieve that with UnRoll Me  which helps you unsubscribe from any junk in your inbox. Unroll me also keeps all your e…

I've been on a huge foundation kick lately. I feel like there has been a lot of different releases over the past few months and I want to try them all. I've never been a huge foundation person--some days I skip it altogether, or just go with a trusty powder foundation ( I love this one ) but lately I just can&…

I guess I went MIA again and the only excuse I have is Daylight Savings Time. Monday-Wednesday I was a mess of exhaustion. It really threw me for a loop, losing an hour of sleep. I had plans to write for the rest of the week, my calendar was jam packed but I just couldn't bring myself to open my laptop. It's b…

I've been on an avid self tanning kick. I swore off tanning beds for the past 2 years and I'm getting better at not sitting in the sun. I talked about most of this two weeks ago in my " Your Skin Is In" post  and I couldn't wait to write THIS post. While I've since been into self tanning, thi…

After a hectic week and a half, it feels good to get back to some sort of routine. Thank you for the love & support, it is much appreciated. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, you can read this . With that being said, I did a lot of retail therapy over the past few days and it's catching up with m…
