Dressing the Bump

The past couple of weeks "the bump" has really started to show. And to be honest, it's been tricky for me to find outfits that 1. fit or 2. I feel comfortable in, especially given my love for denim. But if there's one thing I'm sticking to during this pregnancy, it's my love for basics. I'm in the process of writing some content centered around "pregnancy basics" where I'll be highlighting the best basic pieces I've been able to pair with my non-maternity items like this plaid coat or some of my blazers. ...

My skin hasn't been the same since finding out I was pregnant. If you've read my skincare posts before, you know I have acne/oily prone skin.

A Healthy Start to Your Day: The Cacao Banana Smoothie

My mornings tend to go a bit like this: 6:30 AM alarm goes off, *press snooze twice* and hopefully up by 7 AM. Once I'm up, I'll start the coffee maker, skim emails + social media, mentally prepare for any upcoming meetings or projects that day, then wash my face and start getting ready for the day. Before I head out the door, I usually make a smoothie or grab a protein bar if running a bit behind. ...

Introducing Our New Wellness Series + my favorite Smoothie Recipe

Happy weekend! Today, we are launching our new wellness series: Weekend Wellness. While there's plenty of resources out there on healthy living, I want to share my personal journey towards better health. I want to live a more healthy lifestyle, but I don't always know how. I'm not a fitness or nutrition expert, and frankly, sometimes I don't even know where to start. Maybe you guys fall into the same boat. If you do, you're in good company with this series! The goal with this series is to call on wellness experts and seek their advice on healthy living to all of us here at TTD. You can expect upcoming posts like 3 Steps to Toned Arms or My Favorite Healthy Snacks — this series will cover it all. And if you live and breathe health and wellness, please send us your recommendations either by commenting below or commenting on Instagram. I'll be sharing notable reader tips on my Instagram Stories and highlight them throughout this series. ...
