Maybe I’m being over-sensitive. As a single dog-mom, I have a lot of dog guilt. This probably doesn’t bode well for actual parenting of a baby human, should that ever occur. But I read a recent post about dog-walking frequency—dog-walking frequency! who even needs to read this?—and felt judged. Judged by a writer who doesn’t…
Mesh. Gets Me Every Time.
Maybe it’s the years of basketball indelibly searing a love of mesh into my soul, maybe it’s the sexy factor of skin + air, maybe it’s the contrast—or confluence—of sport and fashion, but I freakin’ love mesh.

The Vegas
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Southwest Airlines Vacations for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. So long as we’re making my life in Orange County look like the TV show The O.C., might as well make a “The Vegas” reference, right? It’s a hop, skip, and barely a jump…
Get Celebrity Eyelashes
“Mom,” I said, rehashing a recent OC party I attended, “Everything was fake. Fake boobs, fake faces, fake …” “Eyelashes?” she asked. “Mom!!!!!” See, Mom knew that at the urging of a coworker, I had gone to get eyelash extensions at LashSpot Spas in Newport Beach. For every inch I got blessed in leg length,…
In Which I Pinterest Pillows
Yes, I used Pinterest as a verb. Deal with it. So is Google. I like crafting and home design, but Pinterest mostly makes me feel largely inadequate and unskilled. Nevertheless, I undertook this simple pin: “No-Sew Pillow Cover.” Easy DIY pillows, right? Well, mostly. So easy I covered every single pillow I could find and…

First up, Power 106 All-Star bball on the NBA Nation tour at Universal CityWalk. <— I missed this shot, clearly. Also, yes, those are Dunks crica 1998. Something about Nike sponsorship… Didja know?

You Are NOT A Celebrity When it Comes To Crop Tops
Dangit, I move to California and all the sudden I’m wearing short pants and short tops and short … well, I always wore short shorts. I am from Texas, after all. The Crop Top. I wrote over there —–> (fashion sticky notes) that crop tops should go back to where they came from (the 90s). However, I…
