Oh hi! Did you know @oldnavy pixie pants are affordable and professional? I wear them w a blazer and pumps at least once a week, have them in 3 colors, and will be buying more. Best of all, they are usually on sale and cost under $25 or under $35 when full price. Get you some, working girl! (Not sponsored, just love them). P.s. I post my daily office style in my stories - check out the Office Looks highlight reel for the lot of ‘em!

If you haven’t gotten on the @madewell Cali Demi-boot Jeans train, you better hop on girl!! I have them in three colors - Black, regular denim and just picked up these mustard cords. I’m obsessed - it’s the only denim cut I like to wear now. This was taken right after I spilled my NYE mocktail - or as I like to call it, a Moscow Fool. It’s part sparkling water, part ginger beer and lots of fresh limes. Serve in a mule mug - perfect for non-drinkers at parties. Aren’t I graceful? P.s. These pants are a 26 if you’re curious about sizing!

Drugstore mascaras - what are your faves? I’m working on a post to round up my must-haves and the @covergirl Lash Blast Flourish mascara and amplifying primer are my current dynamic duo of choice. I also like to layer mascaras on top of each other for different looks. Tell me which ones you love in the comments below so I can add them to my list!! I’ve linked these here on the @liketoknow.it app and on my shop page on the blog! http://liketk.it/2xgj9 #liketkit #LTKbeauty #LTKunder50 #LTKsalealert

But really - is there ever a bad time to apply lipstick? It’s an instant pick me up! These @gloskinbeauty lipsticks have magnetic caps so you’ll never lose your favorite tube in your bag. I’m in love!

Have you discovered the magic of charcoal yet?! I use it on my face, on my teeth and on my armpits (for real, charcoal deodorant is the best!) to pull out bacteria and detoxify. This @yesto mask is one of my favorite affordable charcoal options, and I’ve linked it and my other drugstore charcoal favorites on the @liketoknow.it app. P.s. All my favorite drugstore skincare, hair care and body care is live on bellemeetsworld.com. Head there to read it all! http://liketk.it/2x0k7 #liketkit #LTKbeauty #LTKunder50

Where did my summer go?? Currently searching for lost time and three more days of vacay so I can keep this relaxation going just a bit longer - anybody feel me?!?!? This striped dress from @bananarepublic was such a hit last summer that they cut it in two new styles this year. I’ve linked both on the @liketoknow.it app because they are each fabulous and linked a similar watermelon bag you’ll want for the rest of these warm days we have left! http://liketk.it/2wZTy #liketkit #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip #LTKunder50 #LTKsalealert

The @elfcosmetics ultimate blending brush is affordable, drugstore beauty perfection - just like most of their studio brushes (the lack ones). It is the right shape, size and density to blend all the contouring, highlighting, blushing, setting and glowing you could possibly do! I bought this at the recommendation of one of my fave beauty bloggers, @mego, and have used it every single day since! I tagged two of my fave other elf brushes and my number one drugstore makeup product too - just head to the @liketoknow.it app! http://liketk.it/2wYXP #liketkit #LTKbeauty #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip

My favorite drugstore skincare, haircare and body care products are coming to the blog soon!

Believe the hype about the white @oldnavy rockstar super skinny jeans with the stain repellant and built in super sculpt omg y’all!! They look great on, are slimming, are not transparent and are under $55. I bought a size 8 because the 6 looked painted on (but were still comfy, just not my style to be that tight). For those of you who went shopping with me on stories this weekend, I’m so glad I made this purchase and highly recommend. The only other jeans I wear anymore are @madewell so the fact that I like these is huge!

You might be sick of hearing about this @revlon hairdryer, but I will not apologize for sharing greatness with you! 10 (yes, 10) women have told me they bought it based on my recs and demos from my stories and blog and YouTube - and it changed their lives. It’ll be the best $60 you ever spend! Not sponsored, just obsessed! Link in bio to full tutorial and linked here and in the @liketoknow.it app! http://liketk.it/2wcv0

One of the ways I’ve been spending my staycation this week is testing out drugstore makeup (big surprise!). Almay is one of those brands I’ve known of since I was a child, playing with my mother’s makeup. Since then, they have evolved so much and now have highlighters and multi-dimensional shadows for the warm-weather glow! My favorite new addition to their collection is the lip balm sticks that provide a lovely wash of color without the heaviness of a full-on lipstick. They are PERFECT for summer! I’m so excited to be a member of the Almay Class of 2018, and can’t wait to share more looks with you all! Have you tried Almay recently? You’ll be so happy when you do!! Follow me on the @liketoknow.it app to find these products or head to the shop page on BelleMeetsWorld.com! http://liketk.it/2vOFT #liketkit #LTKsalealert #LTKbeauty

No offense to my husband but…I’m so in love with this @revlon hairdryer, I’d marry it if I could. Have you tried it?! I’ve got a tutorial up on YouTube (link in my highlights) that shows you the best way to use it and a blog post (link in my bio) with all the how-tos you’ll need! If you’re on the @liketoknow.it app, I linked it there and here—> http://liketk.it/2vNiP ! It’ll be the best $59 bucks you’ve ever spent. #liketkit #LTKsalealert #LTKbaby

One of my favorite drugstore dupes is Milani Baked Blush in Dolce Pink. It’s a dead ringer for Nars Orgasm and costs so much less. The only downside to some drugstore makeup? I find that it doesn’t last as long as the higher end versions. The pigments just aren’t as strong. And the packaging isn’t as sturdy. Have you gals noticed this too? It doesn’t stop me from LOVING drugstore makeup. I’d gladly reapply a couple times a day to save 20 bucks!! QUESTION: what are your favorite drugstore dupes? http://liketk.it/2vLES @liketoknow.it #liketkit #LTKbeauty #LTKsalealert

Finally back home for good after 3 weeks on the road! Want to know what saves time and reduces frizz in my hair style when I’m traveling?? A microfiber towel. It’s easy to pack and it sucks out a ton of water. Blowdrying in the hotel is a breeze! I got this cute pink one in a pack of 2 for under $15 on Amazon! Head to the link in my bio to shop them or Follow me on the @liketoknow.it app to get the product details! http://liketk.it/2vHco #liketkit #LTKbeauty

6 planes, 5 cities, 10 days, 1 tiny suitcase...I never leave home without a microfiber towel for fast drying time, my @Revlon dryer for the perfect blowout, an umbrella in case of rain, my mini @joymangano steamer, and a comfy pair of sneaks (these are @targetstyle) for the airport. If you want a full review and tutorial on how this dryer changed my life, head to the link in bio to my blog and YouTube! P.s. shortly after I took this pic, I had to break it Lola that she wasn’t coming with me. http://liketk.it/2vzgZ @liketoknow.it #liketkit #LTKsalealert #LTKbeauty

Believe the hype. This Revlon One-Step Dryer is EVERYTHING. And more. Full tutorial and review on my blog and YouTube channel! Links in my IG highlights! http://liketk.it/2vxX8 #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKbeauty

This is me running from winter in a panicked search for spring. Why?! Why, am I still wearing a wool coat?!?! The only saving grace right now is that these pink leather sneakers and matching bag are perfect for this endless transitional weather and will take me through to fall!

If I’m gonna be stuck inside on this rainy Sunday, I’m gonna do it like a rockstar. Covergirl and Katy Perry you got the pigment and shine right on these glosses! I literally wear one for an hour, take it off and try a new one because they are too good. #covergirlmade #iamwhatimakeup #sponsored You can instantly shop all of my looks by following me on the @liketoknow.it LIKEtoKNOW.it app http://liketk.it/2vtB7 #liketkit #LTKbeauty

Happy Saturday! Ours was low-key. Breakfast at our favorite place in ATL @petitchou, then I finished up my new YouTube vid all about the Revlon dryer I can’t stop talking about (a link is in my highlights to my channel!) and now a quiet night together because Evan and I will be away from each other for separate work trips for 3 weeks! BUT ANYWAY, don’t you just love playful accessories?! They make any outfit so much more fun. And if you’re a gal with hips and looking for a flattering jean, the @madewell Cali Demi fit is very flattering. I wear them almost every Saturday and Sunday. Speaking of, what are your weekend plans?! Shop my daily looks by following me on the LIKEtoKNOW.it app or on the SHOP page on my blog! http://liketk.it/2vt4O @liketoknow.it #liketkit

Are your lips totally freaking out and shedding layers (gross) with these crazy temps?? Mine too!! Thank the drugstore makeup gods for this fabulous LIP EXFOLIATOR FOR CHEAP! A few blogger friends recommended this one to me, and I’m loving it. There are a couple different flavors - I like the cherry but there’s also a mint one that’s refreshing. And it costs next to nothing! Shop my daily looks by following me on the LIKEtoKNOW.it app or on the Shop page on my blog! http://liketk.it/2vei0 @liketoknow.it #liketkit

What’s your favorite color??? Mine is purple, followed by blue (not pink, believe it or not!). Purple and blue represent many things, among them - creativity, wisdom, confidence, ambition, power, royalty, independence, peace, stability and pride. Whoa that’s a tall order. I’m far from royalty, but am a work-in-progress on all the others! I totally believe in color symbolism. How about you?? P.s. linked a couple striped satin blazers because it’s the perfect item to transition to spring! http://liketk.it/2vdsO @liketoknow.it #liketkit

My interior designer friend came over tonight and saw this gorgeous candle on my coffee table and said, ‘WAIT is that a @lafco candle?! I always said that when I grew up and had my own apartment, I’d own a Lafco candle!’ It seems I have checked off a rite of passage into adulthood by owning one. If that’s all it takes to be a grown up, then I am WINNING, y’all! And if adulting smells as good as this Star Magnolia candle, then count me in. Thank you, @lafco for growing me up right! And p.s. it smells incredible when you aren’t burning it, too. Even my husband said he loves it and he’s uber scent-sitive (get it?!?!)http://liketk.it/2v6BD @liketoknow.it #liketkit

This is the face of a crazy makeup lady (kind of like a bag lady but rather than LOTS of bags, you have one giant bag STUFFED with cosmetics) who passed out on the floor from excitement and then woke up and remembered why she passed out and got excited all over again…She discovered a new spring makeup look made of all @nyxcosmetics and is in love!!! Y’ALL, where have I BEEN all my life without NYX until now??? The Butter Gloss, the Wonder Stick and the Ultimate shadow palette are the perfect combo for the season. I’ll break down the look on my stories soon! What’s your fave Nyx product? Need to know all of them now!! http://liketk.it/2v3Zi @liketoknow.it #liketkit

Have you ever bought something that you REALLY wanted to work and it just doesn’t? That’s what happened to me with this floral suit. I’ve had my eye on it for weeks and finally decided to try it. The pants are perfect but the blazer is just too boxy. On my frame, which needs cinching at the waist, it’s a fail. Seated it looks fine, but IRL, forget it. It’s ok to acknowledge when something isn’t right for you. There’s great power in knowing what looks best on your body! My best silhouette is still the fit and flare, and I should probably just live in that everyday - so classic! What’s your best look?? @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2uYdj

DO YOU GET THE SUNDAY BLUES? I do. I have for years and years as long as I can remember. One thing I do to beat them is to make Sunday night a self-care night with a nice shower, a mask and some tea. Tonight I’m having a little love affair with my antioxidant-packed tomato and deep-cleaning charcoal mask by @yestocarrots. This Yes To Tomatoes Detoxifying Charcoal SnapMASK Stick works its acne-fighting magic in 5 minutes flat. And it’s super-portable which I love since I travel so much for work. And it’s affordable! I’d say yes to anything that had this many benefits, wouldn’t you? How do you fight your Sunday blues? #yestomasking #5minuteflashmasking http://liketk.it/2uWTl @liketoknow.it #liketkit

What are your FAVE DRUGSOTRE DUPES?? I resisted exploring drugstore makeup forever and boy was I missing out (and over-spending). This @maybelline Baby Skin is so similar to the @smashbox photo finish primer I really can’t tell the difference. I need to know more dupes though, so tell me all of yours now!! And follow me on the @liketoknow.it app to get a link to this one! http://liketk.it/2uUdf #liketkit

Are these BLUE or PURPLE to you?? My whole life I’ve always seen this specific shade as more of an ultra violet color so I for sure thought I’d scored Pantone’s color of the year when I bought these - but everyone else seems to think they are blue. Regardless, a bright pair of bow sandals are a perfect for addition to your spring and summer wardrobe this season. I’ve linked a bunch of affordable options so make sure to follow me on the @liketoknow.it app for details! http://liketk.it/2uT6U #liketkit

It’s spring, and everything’s coming up…CLARINS! I just love seeing what they come up with every season for eyes, lips and skincare. Lately I’ve been really focused on drugstore beauty so that I can recommend affordable options to my readers, but I also have a few higher-end brands that I am deeply loyal to - and this is one of them. I’ve never met a Clarins product I didn’t LOVE. This spring it’s purple eyes and lips (hello, Pantone color of the year is Ultra Violet, y’all!) and nourished skin underneath my makeup. Follow me on the @liketoknow.it app to get the details to these Spring MVPs. http://liketk.it/2uRKS #liketkit

We spent today walking the ATL beltline and having lunch with friends at @poncecitymarket. You can even see the margarita salt and burrito remnants on my sweatshirt. On our walk home I made Evan shoot 700 versions of me leaping across this rainbow. It was a fun day without deadlines and stress. This casual look is a mix of high, low and medium favorites. In my opinion, the ZAC by @zacposen Eartha bag is one of the best designed and most affordable luxe bags out there. I have it in blue covered in flowers and plan to buy a tan version for spring/summer, too. These @madewell demi Cali jeans are one of the best purchases I’ve made so far in 2018. Truly body flattering and bought them in 2 colors. And these sneakers are a surprise MVP I bought for $23 bucks at @targetstyle. I get stopped on the street all the time by people asking who makes them, assuming they are designer!! Hope you’re having a great weekend and get a little time to let loose too! Follow me on the @liketoknow.it app for all outfit details! http://liketk.it/2uR1w #liketkit

What’s the most versatile piece in your wardrobe?? Mine is a black jumpsuit - so freakin’ versatile and can be dressed up or down and look like a whole new look every time. Plus, you can wear it year round! I’ve linked a to. Of affordable options plus the white boots you know you need to add sass to every outfit this year. Follow me on the @liketoknow.it app to shop! http://liketk.it/2uOYm #liketkit

Gearing up for spring with wide-leg pants and white boots. This is going to be my uniform this season - I think it’s so chic and unexpected to add some pops of color, too! What’s your fave spring style?? Shop this look by following me on the @liketoknow.it app because girl, you need some white boots and they are all on sale! Tagged the pants too! http://liketk.it/2uNiO #liketkit
