I like easy and simple. This styling tool doesn’t disappoint! Here are the details:
CUSTOM STYLING: Tousled, crimped, loose, defined, or all the above – there’s no limit to your style. Adjustable waver barrel plates create different levels of waves.
TOURMALINE TECHNOLOGY: Boosts shine and helps reduce damage and frizz from over-styling.
CUSTOMIZABLE: Lower settings for just a hint, think a crimp-style wave. Mid-height adjustment for more defined waves. Or, go deep. Adjust to the highest barrel for an ultra-waved-outlook.
ALL HAIR TYPES: Digital control with multiple heat settings. Up to 400˚ F for styling magic on all hair types.
TRAVEL READY: 6 ft tangle free swivel cord and universal dual voltage. Auto shut-off and instant heat recovery for consistent results.
GET THE LOOK: Take control of your waves by rotating the adjustable barrel to the exact level of wave you want. Waver can be adjusted while hot to create unique texture throughout the styling process.

Tired of salon prices? Make your nails beautiful at home!
Several years ago, I ditched the Salon prices and started doing my manis and pedis at home.

Two years ago, I started making my own set of press on nails.
Once I got the hang of it, it was super easy to make a set and put them on.
I love the full gel tips I have listed. Those are the ones I use. Although they say no file, you still need to give them a little bit of a file on the tip. That’s something I did not mind because they are natural looking and durable.

I have tried many different brands of glue tabs and Olive & June far surpass any of the tabs I have tried. Not only do they keep my nails put for up to 10 days or more, they are thin and do not add bulk to your press ons.

Feel free to comment and ask me questions. I’m more than happy to walk you through the process of making your own nails at home after you purchase your items 💕🤗

Classic and effortless, Princess Kate is polished even when dressed down. Her style is easy to replicate in any color pallet. Want her style? Keep it simple, no rips in the pants or shirts with too much fabric. The right fit is one that isn’t too tight but just right. Remember tailored and neat to get her Classic look.

Here’s Two ways to wear this casual outfit. Leave your shirt untucked for a more casual look. Adding a belt and matching bag dresses it up.

I picked this up at LOFT this morning. I love it!!

This is the misses size 4. It comes just above my knee, which is exactly where I like my hemlines. I’m 5’3 for refrence. If you get a petite, it will be shorter. I can wear either misses or petite but decided to go with the longer length. It has some stretch to it as well as a zipper in the back. The ladies in the store told me several people have tried it on and it looks great on every silhouette. I’ve looked at so many jean dresses over the past few years and could never settle on one until now!

It’s Game Day and what better way to show your enthusiasm than with a Betsy Johnson piece. She has been one of my favorite designers for years! I love how she puts fun in fashion.

Have fun and mix it up 🤗

I went back to working in retail last night and the store was extremely cold. I reached for this cardigan just to see how it would work with what I was wearing.
Instant glow up! I think this is one of those pieces you’ll be able to wear with so many items already in your closet.
Give it a try, guaranteed you will love it!
I am wearing a regular extra small.

A must have for fall: Brown faux leather and burgundy. Throw in some ivory or cream for balance.

We are encouraged to try on items at work so we can tell our customers how the clothes fit and feel.

Each piece was comfortable and soft. The pants (size 4 average) and jacket (XS) have stretch to them. I’m wearing the Versa sweater under the jacket in size S. The sweater is a bit see through so I recommend grabbing a cami to wear underneath. I’ve tagged my favorite one.
The dress fits like a glove! Size up if you’d like a less fitted look. I’m wearing an XS. I’m wearing a size S in the cardigan which is one size bigger than I’d normally wear.

This is my favorite styling tool to add curls and waves to my hair. They last several days even in high humidity. Three heat settings with a rotating barrel. The beachwaver curls your hair with the touch of a button. Linked below in a different color, it’s the exact one I use.

Talbots has beautiful bright pinks you are sure to love 💕 if you weren’t able to grab that pink jean jacket, consider a cardigan or a zip up hoodie instead.

Weekends call for comfort and an effortless look.
These items are super soft and made to move in or lounge in.
I’m wearing the pants in petite and the tank top in an XS. Not my usual colors but I fell in love with the ease of wearing these pieces.

Uggs, you either love them or you hate them. As you can see, I love them! I’m wearing the Classic Tall II. In fact, the pair I’m wearing is over ten years old! They stand the test of time especially when you waterproof them (I highly recommend the care kit).
I have two pair of the fuzzy slippers tagged in this post that get worn all the time.
They offer boot guards if you’re worried about getting them extra dirty.
Check out the kids section while you shop my links. You might get lucky and fit into a kids size 😉
Click on the boot you love to see all available colors.
Uggs are the ultimate comfort boot IMO. AND if you’re a first time buyer, you’ll get 20% off your first purchase on the official Ugg website. Don’t forget to sign up for rewards 🤗

Are you a doughnut lover?
Doughnuts are my favorite fall food accessory, especially if they are gluten-free.
These Wilton Doughnut pans come in a set of two and truly bake up the best doughnuts. I use the ghee spray to lightly coat the pan before filling with the batter.
The cooling racks I use from Wilton are stackable to save counter space when baking in batches.
For those of you looking for a silicone option, I’ve tagged those too 💕
