    Five beauty products I have on repeat

    Five beauty products I have on repeat

    I am the type of person who loves to mix it up and try new things when it comes to my beauty routine. There are so many beauty products out there, at so many different price points, and it can be difficult to stick with certain products because you just want to try something new. If you follow a ton of bloggers, you're probably exposed to an array of new beauty products every single day, and I'm going to add to the saturation here. Despite my desire to give new products a try

    Ten necessities to survive baby's first month

    Quick disclaimer before I jump into this post: I am not one of those moms who thinks her opinions and experiences are the end-all, be-all for motherhood (not even a little bit). I am, however, all about sharing what has worked for me and my son so that hopefully others can find ideas and tricks that work for them, as well. Moving on. My son is only four months old (will be five months next week), but I seriously feel as though the newborn phase was so long ago. I'll share a l

    Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Open to the Public

    Okay. I know every blogger in the world (exaggeration) has been posting about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, and guess what, guys? I'm adding to it, because today the #nsale is open to the public! Previously, only Nordstrom cardholders could shop the sale, but now anyone and everyone has access to brand-new styles at seriously discounted prices. But don't wait too long, because the sale ends Aug. 6, and popular items sell out very quickly. A few call outs/honorable mentions:

    Book Review: Small Great Things by Jodi Picoult

    Small Great Things by Jodi Picoult Side note before I jump into my review: for the longest time, I've wanted a front porch more than any other unnecessary amenity a house can offer. Well, friends, we finally have a front porch with our new home in Frisco. It's a little too hot and mosquito-ridden to sit out here for hours on end reading, and we still need to get new furniture for it, but I am in love! Okay, moving on to the real reason you're here. Pardon my aside. It may see
    Not up for debate: the perfect pocket tee

    Not up for debate: the perfect pocket tee

    T-shirt // Jeans (part of the Nordstrom sale, under $40!) // Slides // Long necklace // Short necklace // Bracelet // Watch How many of you find yourself on the hunt for the perfect pocket tee every time you decide to do a little shopping? I've tried my fair share of tees recently, and I've found some good ones, but I still hadn't found one that fit and hung perfectly and that was the right length for my short torso - until recently. (Do you sense the hyperbole? It's there,

    HerStory Comeback

    I'm bbaaaaaaack. And I am thrilled. I kind of fell off the map. If you stuck with my Instagram feed, you may have an idea why. I'll give you the super short version: Case James Culotta and about 140 other kids. When we moved back to Texas from San Francisco, there was no doubt I needed to make the move back into the classroom. That is where my heart and soul reside. I was determined to continue blogging once the school year started, but then in early July 2016, I found out I
