My Current Amazon Beauty Favorites

When it comes to beauty products, I find some of my favorites on Amazon. There’s nothing better than adding something to your cart and having it show up on your front porch in 2 days. ;) You’ve probably seen me talk about these pimple patches on Instagram. The gunk they pull out is the best kind of gross! I’ve also been obsessed with these makeup brush covers lately. They’re definitely not…

This Season’s “It” Boots Are SO GOOD

Every year, I like to find a pair of go-to boots to add to my fall and winter wardrobe. Last year it was the Loeffler Randall Goldy Boots that stole the show. I still wear those quite a bit, but once I spotted the Schutz Maryana Block Boots (dare I say this season’s it boots?!), it was game over. First off, these boots are *so chic* and super high quality. They’re made…

The Fall Color Trend You Need to Know About

Even though the temperature today is in the 90s (oh, Texas), I’m mentally sipping a pumpkin spice latte and enjoying the changing leaves outside. A girl can dream, right? Whether the temperature decides to agree or not, it’s time to update your wardrobe for fall. One color that’s making a big statement this season is chocolate brown. This versatile shade is popping up everywhere, so I had to jump on…

Stanley Quencher vs. Simple Modern Tumbler

If you’ve scrolled IG in the past year or so, you’ve no doubt seen the famous Stanley Quencher. You truly cannot miss it. And there’s a reason for that — it’s good. Like, in terms of tumblers, it’s one of the best I’ve ever used (and that includes the gigantic ones they give you at the hospital after you have a baby). But then out of nowhere, the Simple Modern…

Fall Must-Haves I’m Loving Right Now

Fall is on the way, y’all! The high in Dallas today is 79 degrees. I consider anything under 80 basically a fall day. ;) In all seriousness, now is the time to start updating your wardrobe for the upcoming cooler weather. Each year, I like to buy 1-2 new pairs of jeans and a few sweaters. Plus, I’ll typically splurge on a new pair of boots each fall because I…

How I Organize My Sunglasses

If you’re like me, you’ve probably grown quite the collection of sunglasses over the years. I will typically spend a bit more on my sunglasses so they’ll last me awhile. Because of this, my sunglasses have accumulated and were constantly ending up in the most random of places. When I decided to find a good storage solution, nothing I saw online really worked for what I needed. Then I saw…

August Amazon Best Sellers

It’s time to share the August Amazon best sellers! There are some really great items in this month’s lineup. If self-care is your thing, you need these Mighty Patch pore strips. They remind me of the strips we used to use in high school — except they’re so much better. I also can’t recommend this pomade stick enough if you’re going for a slick-back pony. Pair it with this frizz and…

How are we already in September? I’m actually in disbelief. I swear it was just February. But here we are, it’s time to share the August best sellers.

I could totally see these paired together with this oversized knitted coat in the fall or winter. I’ve also been on a…
