Having the house to myself in my 40s is the definition of luxury ✨

It’s peace, playlists, and perfume.
It’s @saltair Saltwater Vanilla body butter + body oil on repeat.
It’s @theordinary glycolic acid, @prequelskin vitamin C serum, and @dermalogica PHYTO Nature firming serum + oxygen cream doing what they do best.
It’s @marcjacobsfragrances Daisy Wild in the air while @tonibraxton Let It Flow and Reasons by Earth, Wind & Fire set the tone.
It’s red lentil chili simmering, strawberry @nothingbundtcakes waiting, and groceries magically delivered because… soft life only.
It’s wallpaper samples, caftans, and pure contentment.

The perfect fall dress?

#LTKOver40 #LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKSeasonal

My kind of weekend: equal parts peace and productivity. 🌿
Folded laundry, slipped into a new Loft dress, laughed over dinner at Cooper’s Hawk, sang every Dru Hill lyric in the bedroom, and ended with a 3-mile hike to clear my mind.
Soft, simple, and satisfying.

#LTKHome #LTKOver40

Here’s my latest obsession as it relates to perfumes! It has notes of Clementine zest, sweet vanilla cream, and Rich blonde woods.

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKBeauty

Took a quick trip to @wegmans today… #genx #blackgenx #over40 #lifeinyour40s #errands #fortysomething

My new favorite dress to wear into the office.

#LTKWorkwear #LTKOver40 #LTKFindsUnder100

The reason I don’t answer the phone in my 40s?
Because I’m too busy living.

Breaking out my new vinyl — Am I the Drama? by Cardi B 🎶
Spritzing my new fave scent, @muglerofficial Angel Nova 🌸

Playing dress-up, minding my business, and letting Taco Tuesday do what it does best 🌮✨

It’s the little luxuries, the throwbacks, and the peace for me. #genx #blackgenx #over40 #fortysomething #40s #nostalgia

My new favorite over 40 make up look!

#LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKBeauty #LTKOver40

A beautiful fragrance combo!

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKBeauty

Pinstripes, but make it powerful. 🤍 I’m obsessed with this new suit from @loft featuring a classic pencil skirt and blazer—perfect for the office or any moment you want to own the room.

And the best part? There are also matching dress pants and a vest to complete the set.

#LTKWorkwear #LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKOver40

POV: You set out for a simple @zara return… but the mall had other plans 😅. One quick stop turned into a full-blown errand extravaganza—@zara, @hm, @mango, @sephora (because of course I had to smell perfumes), a sweet break at @haagendazs_us, and somehow I ended up at @homegoods and @flooranddecor. 🛍️✨

Everything I bought (and didn’t buy 👀) is linked in my LTK, because y’all know I don’t gatekeep. And can we talk about how @coach’s fall collection is absolutely next-level? Obsessed. 🍂👜 #genx #blackgenx #over40 #fortysomething #errands #metime #shopping #ootd

Plaid is very much the best thing about fall!

Corporate Baddies Confessions 💼✨
This week’s look: a bangin’ navy suit with barrel legs + dramatic sleeves that give all the main character energy. Perfect for fall, the office, or anywhere you need to command the room. Obsessed is an understatement. 🖤

#LTKWorkwear #LTKStyleTip #LTKOver40

These two just earned “favorite” status in my closet — a cropped trench and tee that somehow make everything look more put together.
Both come in multiple colors, but sizes are going quick on the tee!
Refined, simple, and ready for fall.

My new favorite tee under $25!

Reasons I don’t answer the phone in my 40s: 🎶 jamming out to Bodega Baddie by @iamcardib , raving about my new favorite dress, tracking my macros one bite of protein at a time, eating a salad while standing up (because why not?), playing the Wii like it’s still 2009, turning my kitchen into a full-on day party 💃🏽✨ …and oh, hey 👋🏽 new hair—debuting my blonde era! ✨ Life’s too good to be interrupted.

Everything from this video—the dress, the vibes, all of it—is linked for you in my LTK. 💻✨#genx #blackgenx #over40 #fortysomething #over40andfabulous #lifeinyour40s #selfcare

A power suit with pockets? Say less. 🥰 I dress for the life I desire—and this one fits the bill. Perfect for the office, a conference, or any room where I want to show up with confidence. The best part? Each piece is under $40. Wear it anywhere, because why not?

#LTKWorkwear #LTKStyleTip #LTKFindsUnder100

This suit is under $70!

This candle has been one of my go-to’s when winding down for the day.

New work wear on the way!

Can’t believe it’s been three months since our dining room makeover!

Outdoor movie night is going to be a vibe this fall!

Loving this gray coat for my he fall!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKOver40 #LTKFallSale

Serving corporate baddie energy in my new suit from @loft -Needless to say, I’m obsessed. The fabric has quite a bit of stretch, so I recommend sizing down if you grab it (linked in my LTK—check my bio).

Now the real question is… should I style it with a shirt underneath, or keep it no-shirt chic? 👀 Drop your vote in the comments because both are giving a vibe.
