  • Polished Picks – June 2018

    It’s officially summer, and what better way to kick off the season than with June’s Polished Picks?! These are some of my current favorites, and it looks like I have a thing for yellow and blush pink.

  • A Flattering Pair of Overalls

    Yes, it is possible — a pair of overalls that are actually flattering and fitted in all the right places! I remember wearing overalls all the time back in junior high, but they were a lot different back then. The legs were baggy, and I’m not sure they looked as cute as I thought they did. These skinny overalls from… [Continue Reading]

How I Protect My Skin from the Sun

Skin care is something I take very seriously, especially when it comes to protecting my skin from sun damage. For so many years, I didn’t even think about using SPF on a daily basis. It really only crossed my mind if I was going out to the pool or the beach, and even then I sometimes didn’t use it. After…

One-Shoulder Jumpsuit

The jumpsuit might just be the best invention ever. It has all the sophistication of a dress with the comfort of pajamas — which is basically my version of heaven. This one-shoulder ‘Royal Ruffle’ Jumpsuit from Sugarlips might be the most darling thing I’ve ever seen, and it’s one of those outfits that I can stay comfortable in all day….

5 Essentials for a Girly Spring Brunch

One of my favorite things to do is decorate for a party. I don’t get to do it nearly as often as I’d like, but when I get the chance I definitely go all out. I just love the entire process, and it’s so satisfying to see my vision come to life. Spring brunches are my absolute favorite because I…

How to Get Healthy Glowing Skin with Olay Cleansing Infusion

How to Get Healthy, Glowing Skin this Spring

Warm, spring weather means less clothing…and less clothing means my pale, dull skin is exposed for the world to see. Cold weather and harsh cleansers have done a number on my skin recently. I am 100% okay with being pale, but there’s no reason I have to settle for dull, lifeless skin. I just want healthy, glowing skin that I…
