Beauty | Wild Orchid


Spring is here - kind of. I mean, it's still in the 40's here but apparently my mind has wishful thinking lately because I've been so inspired by bright "spring" colors!

Beauty | Deck of Scarlet No. 7 w/ Roxette Arisa - Swatches + Review


*Product sent by Deck of Scarlet for review.

Hey, hey, hey! How's it going, guys? If you caught my Instagram Stories from a few days ago, then you might recognize this pretty little palette. It's the Deck of Scarlet No.7 Palette with Roxette Arisa

What's Deck of Scarlett, you might ask? It's kind of like a subscription box where a new palette will be sent straight to your door but instead of every month, this one is sent every two months. Each palette is curated by a popular YouTuber and is $29.95. You can skip a month at any time. They are cruelty free, paraben free and made in the good ol' USA.

Beauty | Down and Dirty


* Affiliate links used.

Happy Monday, everyone! I hope y'all had a safe St. Patrick's Day, if you celebrate. We do so I definitely ate my share of corned beef. Yummmm. Anyway. So, guys. Anyone spring cleaning yet? I know it's not officially spring but I've been trying to clean up my makeup collection by going through all of it and either throwing things out that have expired/will never use or trying diving back into older products and bringing them out to play again. Like, for today's look I used the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette. I don't even know why I stopped using it in the first place because it's insanely gorgeous! Let's check it out.

Little Babes | The BEST Snow Ice Cream EVER!


* Recipe is from Happy Hooligans. We're just sharing the love!

Who has a snow day today!? The snow just stopped coming down about an hour ago which is perfect timing as I've had this recipe by Happy Hooligans pinned for SO darn long and decided to give it a try! We've tried the make-ice-cream-from-snow-thing before but there's a special ingredient in this that totally knocks it out of the park. Like, I'd choose this over Breyers, that's how good it is!

Style | Celebrating The Mom Bod w/ Universal Thread


Happy International Women's Day! This post was supposed to be just an ordinary style post but I feel like it's a little extra special on this day. Style posts are a little out of my comfort zone as I'm not that typical body that alllll the clothes look great on. But today I'm celebrating it. It's my body, that birthed two children (and okay, maybe ate like, wayyyy too many pizza slices) and I'm okay with it. That's me. Look, my body is a longggggg ways away from being what it used to be, and I'm okay with being a work in progress but finding clothes that fit this bod has been super tough in the mean time.


I recently discovered Universal Thread at Target (thanks, mom!) and I'm in love with the way their clothes fit. So much so, that once I popped their jeans on, I knew I had to do a blog post about them in the hopes that anyone looking for quality clothing for a good price point will see this and go, "Oh, hey!"

Beauty | Simple Gradient Liner Festival Look


* Some products used in this look were sent for consideration from the companies.

Full disclaimer: I've never been to a music festival but they always look like so much fun! I'd like to think if I ever went to one, today's look would be something I'd totally rock but let's be real - I'd wear this to the grocery store!

RIGHT.


So today, we're going full-on mommy!
