Easy Summer Makeup for Glowy Skin
Summer for me usually means less makeup, more bronzer and lots of SPF. And now that life in the newborn and toddler stage are both in full swing, I don't have quite as much time for getting ready like before. It's key for me to find products that work well and won't melt off my face (like this all-in-one face palette or tinted BB Cream with SPF from Nordstrom)
I've found a routine that works great for me and leaves me with that glowy summer skin that I desperately want to achieve. This look is breathable, has SPF and still gives you a little coverage even without an actual foundation. Need I say more? ...

I Tested 30 Affordable Makeup Brushes. Here’s My Top 15.
A few months ago I got a DM asking if I could review and share a list of affordable makeup brushes. Specifically brushes under $20 that blend nice and don't shed. I love a good challenge and was pretty excited to work on something like this. Makeup is something I've always enjoyed and it's been fun to test out over 30 brushes (yes, 30) and pull together a list of my top recommendations. The best part? They are all $20 or less. ...

What I Pack for a Staycation
This past weekend Austin and I celebrated my birthday with a staycation in Dallas. It was so much fun to have a weekend just the two of us and truly relax. It's a great way to "get away" without actually getting away. Highly recommend a staycation if you are getting the travel bug, but not ready to fly.
We've done a few staycations this year and I wanted to share what I typically pack for a staycation. I keep it low-key and try to eliminate any extras I don't need. I hate unpacking and this saves me from putting back the things I didn't even wear or use. ...

The Best Spring Blazers (and Some Are Under $50)

And with spring pastels a trend this season, I had a lot of fun scouring the web for the best spring blazers — finding some under $50! ...

What I’m Wearing from Amazon During my Pregnancy
I did a Pregnancy Q+A on Instagram recently and a popular question that came up was where to shop for maternity clothes. But honestly, there's very few maternity brands that I like. With the exception of pants, I try to stick with stretchy or flowy non-maternity pieces that will accommodate the bump. I typically have good luck at Amazon and prefer to not spend a ton on tops or dresses that I'm not going to wear past the pregnancy. ...
