Welcome to My Diary
Gift Spotlight: Jewelry Pt. 2!
If you've read my earlier blog, you'll know that I'm doing a two-part series on my favorite Kendra Scott Jewelry for the holidays. I found too many pieces I loved to do it in just one post! This time around I'm going to cover their Winter Collection and all of my favorite gift options from it.
Holiday Gift Guide | For Men
Alex has always been so hard to shop for, mostly because we tend to have different taste when it comes to men’s fashion. We finally found a brand that we both approve of, Ralph Lauren. That’s why I am thrilled to partner with Polo Ralph Lauren to help you all find the best gifts for the special men in your life this holiday season.
Gift Spotlight: Jewelry
As the holidays quickly approach, we all start making lists. Whether it's for our own wish lists or lists of gift ideas for the ones we love, it always seems to be harder than anticipated. That's where I come in. I've done all the hard work in scouring websites of brands I love and making selections on what I believe are the best they have to offer.
Streetwear Vibes
When neon hit the Fall 2018 runway shows, I was eager to see how the trend would show up in everyday fashion. It has been so fun to see that neon is truly spread across all genres: cocktail dresses, chunky sweaters, and even streetwear.
"I-Spy" The Best New Way to Shop
Sometimes, shopping is a pain in the rear. There, I said it! Okay... I love it, don't get me wrong, but only when I actually have the time, which is RARE for me right now. As I was gearing up for my Scotland trip, I wanted to get some new pieces to photograph while overseas. I don't know about you guys, but I can get really overwhelmed with online shopping.
Getting Jiggy With the '90s & eBay Fashion
I don't know if you've noticed - but the 90s have had a huge resurgence the past year, and I've gone full force into the trend. Everything from scrunchies and backpacks to small glasses and plaid have officially exploded from my closet. It is now easier than ever to find 90s staples and accessories, "vintage" or modern.
Portugal Sneak Peek with River Island
The last couple weeks have been a whirlwind - from plane flights, to trains, to boats, and more, Portugal has been an absolute dream - but an exhausting one. I promise a full, detailed Portugal Travel Guide is in the works, but in the meantime, I wanted to give you a sneak peak at some of the fashion from the trip!
Self Care & Dazey LA
The universe has a way of bringing people into your life. Three years ago, I was hired to model for a denim company. There I met Dani, who very quickly became a close personal friend of mine. Do you ever meet someone and instantly know they are meant to stay in your life? This was Dani for me. She has since started her very own company, Dazey LA, which has fused together her incredible talents as a designer, photographer and artist.
Bonneville Salt Flats with India Earl & BHLDN
So beyond excited to share these images from our shoot with BHLDN!!! Dream come true getting to shoot in the Bonneville Salt Flats with the amazingly talented wedding photographer India Earl!
Junebug Weddings Feature
Had the amazing honor of being featured on Junebug Weddings!!! This shoot was so much fun to work on and our team of talented artists made it so seamless. I'm sure someone similar to Winnie Couture could make it even better if they wanted too but as it is fantastic! There were literally so many photos to pick from-all of them so beautiful and fun-I had the hardest time picking which ones to post!
No Rain, No Flowers
What better time of the year to wear florals than summertime?! I love this season because it not only brings fresh new blooms in my garden, but also represents new growth and cleansing in our lives. —because the old saying, “April showers brings May flowers”, is totally true!! Without a little bit of dark clouds in our lives, we can’t fully appreciate the beautiful moments life has to offer!!
Art Teacher Chic
Personal style is all about taking something that is CLASSIC and making it your own! That's why I describe my own personal style as Art Teacher Chic. It's a little bit of vintage, and a little bit of modern- but a whole lot of BOLD. It's unapologetic and daring! I like to mix prints and old trends with new to create something spectacular!
Let’s Play: Fashion Edition
NOSTALGIA fashion. It's a thing!!! Who else spent countless hours as a kid playing Nintendo? The #bloomingdales Let's Play shop features styles meant to inspire us to incorporate the FUN and playful attitudes of our childhood into our wardrobes.
All Cotton, All Right
Ever since I was a little girl, my mom taught me that 100% is the BEST kind of fabric to wear on your body. When it came to choosing undies, dresses, bed sheets and even jeans (since they are so tight on our bums!)… she always encouraged me to look at the label before making a purchase. "Your skin needs the freedom to breathe!" she would say.
A Cat Lady's Valentines
It's cool to be a cat lady! This Valentines, I'm celebrating my inner kitty diva... and staying in to cuddle Meatball. Sorry guys, I can't. I have plans with my cat!
