Denim Lace-Up
When it comes to gearing up for spring my closet most commonly falls into two of three categories, denim and dresses. When I’m not wearing one of the other, I’m wearing both! Case and point this denim shift dress. I’m all for comfort and this little number is no exception. The lace-up detail is edgy but, not only showy which is right up my alley. I loosely tied a bow, but I’m also thinking of styling it in two knots with a bandana or scarf.
A Day at The Races
This week I’m sharing photos from our trip with Marriott to Kenneland for Maker’s Mark 46 Mile. We ended up going to the racetrack the last day we were there and it couldn’t have been a better send-off to a great press trip.
Living Room Sneak Peek
It’s been nearly a year since moving into our home in the city, and we've come a long way from bare walls! I’ve been patiently waiting to share a look into our home for months and although this post won’t be the full tour, it’s a look at what's to come. These images are from the ‘living’ space, which includes our living/TV room and dining area..
Garden Party
Between lusting enviously over everyone’s Coachella’s pictures and battling a crazy windy weekend, to say summer can’t come soon enough is an understatement. So aside from not wearing fringed skirts and 90s band tees much of the weekend was spent running errands and yes, hangin on to my hat. I’ve been into hats a lot lately and experimenting with different silhouettes and styles. This particular straw style has the perfect structure and aesthetics for the spring and summer seasons. I like to wear girly styles every now and again and thought that this eyelet dress would be the perfect compliment.The top has the dainties button-down front with dolphin-side slits. The best part about it, it's on sale here!
Southern Charm
This week couldn’t be more different to the last, so I wanted to share a little peek into the Bourbon Battle held by Marriott Hotel’s Griffith Gate and Maker’s Mark. No stranger to bourbon I jumped at the chance to attend the release and debut of Maker’s Mark flights.
Springtime Beauty Favorites
When the weather heats up, it’s time for a change in the beauty regime. Last week I shared a tutorial of my natural festival beauty, and I wanted to expand on what products I’m using to lighten things up and also protect my skin. For the most part I use a primer and foundation during the workweek, but when it comes to the weekends I like to use products that skin products that include a SPF with a lighter more natural finish. BB/CC creams are great alternatives that both provide light-moderate coverage and can really shorten the time spent in front of a mirror.
Bells and Bourbon
What a weekend...more like week! The boy and I were treated to a press trips with Marriott and Maker's Mark last week in what would be the best bourbon trip of all time! Yes, no exaggeration, and I'm sure if you follow along on social media you caught plenty of my shares. Over the next few weeks I'll be sharing a few mouth watering cocktails, and looks from our trip to Kentucky. (This particular looks comes at you from day two.)
Natural Festival Beauty
When it comes to festival beauty, less is definitely more! In between sweltering heat and windstorms, heavy beauty routines do not stand a chance. When gearing up for Coachella, Bonnaroo, or any other festival destination, think twice before packing excessive makeup and skin-care products. In fact, I would suggest taking the minimalist approach when preparing your beauty bag this season. Invest in quality products that will be able to keep up with your playlist and pending weather conditions. Here is one of my go-to fuss-free natural festival beauty routines.
Springtime in the City
Raise your hands if you consider denim a year-round staple ( insert high-five emoji). As if there's anything more classic than a pair of washed jeans, it's cuffed or cut-off shorts! Living in San Francisco in the springtime means a mix of highs and lows. Being as the weather typically settles in the mid-60s layering year round is a must.
