As I've mentioned before, these are my absolute favorite posts. Not just to put together, but I always love hearing what people carry in their bags. I guess you could say I am always on the lookout for new "purse size" goodies to try out.
I switch bags about 4 times during the week, so in between the mess of receipts and gum wrappers, I thought I'd share with you guys the things I carry around on a daily basis.
1. Gigi New York Teddie Tote in Sand- This leather carry all is a life savor. It's the perfect companion to take with me to school each day and a great weekend tote. It hold all my stuff without feeling weighed down.
2. Gigi New York All In One Clutch- This clutch is my favorite multitasker. Not only does it make a great makeup bag but it also is a pretty chic clutch. I just love that tassel!
3. Tieks Ballet Flats in Light Pink- Now that my husband and I moved, we are within walking distance to some of our favorite restaurants. These little guys make it easy when I want to swap the heels for some flats. I also keep these on hand when I want to be comfortable while teaching. They make my feet feel so good.
4. If I Do Say So Myself, Kate Spade Notebook- I'm always one for having cute stationary and paper goods.

BaubleBar X Pantene
If there's one thing you can count on in Texas, it's the extreme heat (ok and the humidity). Two things that do not pair well with hair. Due to the unfortunate heat, I've been really inspired to find pretty hairstyles that help minimize frizz and are relatively low maintenance.
I was super excited to try out the new Pantene Stylers Collection. I have a weakness for hair products (you guys know this) so I couldn't wait to get my hands on the Blow Out Extend Dry Shampoo and Flexible Hold Hair Spray. I used these products to create three different hairstyles to help beat the heat. To top it off, I styled each look with some BaubleBar jewelry to add a little sparkle.

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray- This is magic in a can. The Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray is amazing because it's formulated for all hair types and is meant to be used a few different ways. I use this product as a dry shampoo, however it is used by many as a way to add volume and texture to fine or thin hair.Typically styling aids add a little shine, but this doesn't (which is why I love it). It doesn't make my hair dull, but it definitely minimizes the oil around my roots. The smell is also incredible. I never thought I'd spend $42 bucks on a dry shampoo/texturizer....but when my hairdresser kept using this on me I feel in love with it more and more!

The Secrets Out
Some of the best keep {beauty} secrets are the ones we know about! After working in a salon for the past 7 years {summer job aside from teaching} and being a product junkie, I have literally tried hundreds of different beauty products. Sadly, I tend to fall for all the gimmicks. However, I have narrowed it down to my favorite products that imitate the real thing. I was inspired to write this post after spending a few days in the salon and having many customers & friends ask me about the products I use. This by no means is all that I use, but it's definitely what people tend to ask about most!Enjoy!

5 Shoe Styles We Are Seeing Everywhere (and will continue to wear in 2024)
It's definitely been the year of flats, and I have zero complaints. We've seen ballet flats to retro sneakers become quite popular again in 2023. Some would argue that they've always been popular, but as of late, it seems these styles are in demand more than most.
I've curated a selection that I believe will remain well-liked in 2024. And even if you're typically a devoted fan of heels, the picks below may just inspire a change of heart. Surprisingly, the variety of stylish flat shoe options is more extensive than one might expect. ...
