Gather

It’s not often I’m able to catch morning television, but I am so excited I randomly saw this segment on Good Morning Texas the other day. Gather Kitchen has apparently been serving up healthy, customizable bowls in Downtown Dallas’ Thanksgiving Tower for a year! I’ve worked out of that WeWork location before and never realized …

Hang it all out to dry

One of the items I was MOST excited for when registering was a drying rack for my clothes. I am serious. I spent my twenties with hangars dripping in my bathroom and delicates laying over surfaces. I have always believed in air drying my clothes that fit perfect. It can be a $12 cotton graphic …

Top 5 Tips for Rent The Runway Unlimited

I’m gonna let you in on one of the best #FrugalFriday secrets I have. . . the Rent the Runway unlimited membership! It’s basically Netflix, but for clothes.  You pay a monthly fee, and then choose any 4 items from their enormous online selection of dresses, tops, skirts, accessories- you name it.  Order the items …

Metallic Flats All Day Everyday

One of my absolute favorite trends this season is the Metallic Flat. They’re a little bit casual, a little bit dressy and a perfect accent to whatever you have on: Dresses, skinny jeans, shorts or jorts. (Yes, I love jorts). I have to make certain that I don’t wear the same pair every single day! …

Wine Country Vacationing

A few years back, our friends got married in wine country. We had never been to Northern California and made sure to visit AS MANY vineyards and wineries as possible. We rented a bus and scoured for miles.  I mean, we had to do our due diligence, right? Our very first stop was Domaine Carneros. …

All the Face Oils

I have an obsession with essential oils. I am currently writing while my diffuser pumps out a blend of Bergamot, Lemon and Eucalyptus. I will roll DoTerra Peace Touch on my feet before bed. I injest a vegetable caplet of Lavender, Lemon and Peppermint every morning for allergy relief. And I just washed my face, …

Lemon Broth Soup

Summer is officially in full swing and the swim suits in heavy rotation. I never quite feel like I’m ready to walk around in my suit, but it’s proven pretty difficult to swim in denim shorts and a Tshirt. I’ve previously referenced my problems with committing to hard core diets. But I do like to …

Closet Cleanout

It’s commonly referred to as a Spring Cleaning epidemic. You go through your closet, vowing to purge, and somehow end up just as full after as it was before your hours of sweat and chaos. But things are a bit more organized, so that’s a bonus. I would like to offer a little assistance. Follow …

Crossbody Bags For the Win!

I’d like to raise my glass for a toast- my last baby is potty trained!! Yes, I’ve reached that hallowed ground beyond the land of the diaper bag. Of course, I’m still not quite past “Mommy- do you have a snack?”, “I have a bloody nose- do you have a tissue?”, or “I’m bored- do …

Summer Wines Under $15

I’ll keep this short, sweet and to the point. There are times that a gorgeous bold cab are relevant alongside a perfectly seasoned filet. And that bottle of bubble tucked away for just the right occasion. But for an every day wine – a hot summer wine – a pool day wine – this is …
