You know how much I dig personalized jewelry. And since I've become a mom, I'm really into it. For me, jewelry is so personal, so why not add a meaningful monogram, date or symbol to something you'll wear every day. ...
Valentine’s Day Gifts For Her
Valentine's Day is just around the corner and I'm here to bring you some of my favorite gifts for her. And the best part? All of these retailers are on Jewel and you can earn real money back on literally every purchase you make through their site. It's kind of genius. Jewel is a cashback loyalty site for luxury retailers. I got this Everlane Cashmere Crewneck Sweater and the Micro Form Bag both through Jewel. ...
Our Love Story
Today, we are taking a little walk down memory lane and sharing the personal story of how Austin and I fell in love. I haven't shared our story on here before, but when MICHELE asked me to partner with them for their Valentine's campaign, I knew it would be the perfect fit for our love story. It's been fun to go back and think about so many moments in time that defined our relationship. I met Austin 7 years ago, and through these years, we've had several defining moments for our relationship. Our story has plenty of cheesy moments, but I truly cherish every one of them. Our journey starts in college... ...

Valentine’s Gift Guide
With Valentine's Day just a few weeks away, I wanted to share with you some of my favorite gifting ideas for him or her. I know how tricky it can to find the perfect gift, so I reviewed some of my recent buys that could be a great option for you (or him).
Austin and I always laugh about Valentine's Day (and maybe you can relate) because in college I always tried to "make" his gift. Because every college guy wants a stuffed bear or a photo collage right? Well, I remember buying him a stuffed Koala (it was an inside joke) and I painted a heart on it's tummy and wrote "Be Mine" on the heart. I also included a photo of us with an obnoxious amount of heart stickers that went around the frame and all over the card. Subtle right? I knew he was a keeper when he kept it on his desk in a house full of other boys. Ha!
We always laugh about those gifts, but love looking back on those memories. We still have those hand made gifts saved in our memory box! To this day, I always try to make him a little something in addition to his actual gift. I guess it brings out the inner 1st grade teacher in me!
Below are a few of my favorite practical gifts. I included items at all price points, but for more options, be sure to check out this Valentine's Gift Shop at Nordstrom.
Happy shopping and thanks so much for stopping by! xx
Gift Guide | Be Mine
With Valentine's just around the corner, I wanted to share some inspiration whether you are giving or receiving. We are doing a fun gift exchange at school, so I have been on the hunt for budget friendly gifts. I am loving this "Blah Blah Blah" Mug and this monogramed notepad. Both are under $30 and are so fun for work or play. I am also wanting to invest in a blush bag. I love this one from Tory Burch and the crossbody option is an added bonus! I just purchased that Nars Lipgloss in the color "Angleika" and it is by far one of my favorite pinks. I usually stick to more of a subdued shade, but this pop of pink was the right touch for spring. For more gifting ideas, see my other gift guide here. Happy Shopping! xx

Gift Guide | Valentines Day
With Valentine's Day less than a month away, I can't help but "think pink". While flowers and candy are nice, let's think outside the box this year. I've gathered a few of my favorite gifts (both luxury and steals) that are more than welcomed for the upcoming holiday.
Neons haven't always been my thing, but I absolutely love the color "blush". Especially for Spring and Summer! This Tory Burch Clutch is a classic and I am loving the new fragrance by Jo Malone Peony and Blush Suede. Some more affordable items (although you would never guess) are these XO Pave Studs and this Blush Scarf. Both under $30! I also can't get over this sleep mask--adorable! Happy Shopping! xx
