Boho Summer Style
Belt bags are a huge trend right now and I'll be honest - I never saw myself wearing one. But I kept seeing them on others and thought they looked super chic, so I decided to give them a try. I was eyeing this leather style, but decided to buy a cheaper version first to test out. I am surprised by how much I love it and how versatile it is (easily fits a phone, keys & lipstick/compact. Plus, it's an added bonus that it instantly defines your waist, regardless of what you're wearing. ... View the Post

Feminine Summer Style
I'm sure I've mentioned it before (and you may have already taken notice), but I tend to dress more feminine in the spring & summer months than any other time of year. I'm all about embracing pretty pastels, pinks & figure-flattering silhouettes. Something about the warm weather just brings out my girly side! I feel like I don't hear a lot about JCPenney in the blogging community & I'm not sure why - every time I go into the store, I walk out with something fabulous + they ... View the Post

India Q&A: What I’m Packing
Since I began sharing more about my India trip on social media, I've been getting hundreds of questions coming in. So, I thought it might be easiest to share all the details in a comprehensive post here, rather then sending the same information over & over to different people via DM. It's hard to believe that I'll be leaving exactly 3 weeks from today - I'm getting more excited as time goes on, but I also still have so much to do to prepare! I'll be sharing a separate post in a couple ... View the Post
Summer Ease
This post is sponsored by Nordstrom and ShopStyle. All opinions are 100% honest & all items were hand-selected by me. Summer is officially here! The warm weather is here to stay, my kids are finally out of school & we get to live life at a slightly slower pace (with no sports games, class parties or music lessons to go to). This is my favorite time of year because the days are longer & we end up getting so much more quality family time. Even though I'm someone who loves to ... View the Post
