Traveling for business can often be a drag, but if you plan it right you can really utilize your free time to turn into a fun trip. I recently went to Chicago for business. I was there for a conference, but I wanted to make sure to check off some things on my Chicago bucket list. Hampton Social being at the top of the list of course! It could have been very easy for me to go ...

Like I mentioned in our post about non-traditional wedding cake ideas, we aren't cake people, so for Jared's groom's cake, we opted for a donut bar wedding. Jared LOVES donuts and this was a unique way to showcase his personality and honestly it was a hit! People were immediately standing in line and the whole bar was licked clean! We had every flavor from Oreo to fruity ...

I stumbled across this green top and fell in love. I don't have any ...
One of my go to outfits is jeans and a t-shirt. If you don't know by now, I love a good fitted t-shirt. I am very much into casual attire and I believe a t-shirt can still be cute if you style it right. I wear my fair share of dressy blouses, but I feel most comfortable in a good tee.

One of my must have items for my wedding was a monogram veil. I saw a picture on Pinterest and I was inspired to have this at my wedding. Well I am here to tell you, don't believe everything you see on Pinterest. I chose my dress with a low back purposefully, so I could have a monogram on my veil to hit at my shoulder blades. Easy enough right? Wrong! I bought my veil and ...
Since cutting my hair I have really struggled on how to style it. I've tried a curling iron, a wand and even a flat iron. Nothing was working! After watching a million Youtube videos seeking for something to help, I found the Beachwaver. It was my last hope! Keep reading for a full S.75 Beachwaver Review.
