Y’all remember when I was a beauty editor and did fun makeup posts all the time—think My Chemical Breakup or that time the poor Vermonster had to be my smell tester for my all-natural deodorant quest? Maybe I got a lil lazy out here in Cali (when I wasn’t forced to try new things all…
It’s no secret that I love yoga, but I haven’t talked much about it recently—mainly because I haven’t been taking many classes (the move, the injury, the lack of a studio…) Which is why I’m excited to take YogaWorks’ Fall Into Yoga 14-day Challenge starting today. The challenge is $14 for 14 days of classes…
I am grateful for Ginger Lynne, the Jeep. She has brought me on countless adventures throughout the beach cities, occasionally inland, one excessively chilly trip to Malibu, and off-roading in the desert only to be challenged by her return to the freeway (toddler temper tantrum). Ginger Lynne stroked my fragile “cool-girl” ego, gave me occasion…
You didn’t think I’d forget my thisislifeinaustin roots, now didja? I’m headed to my other home and am super excited to see my fam, chill, have a Victor haircut, fish with my dad, yoga, and maybe do a little shopping. Some research shows that anticipation is one of the best parts of a trip, and…
I posted 31 things to do before I turn 31 a mere 28 days before I turned 31. So how’d I do?? 22/31 Here’s how I fared: 1. Idaho (at least book the trip) Booked! 2. [redacted] en route 3. Closure [redacted] yep 4. Stain coffee table done 5. Sand dumpster-diving entry table + buy…
I’m back home (one of ’em anyway) for the wedding of yet another couple I successfully set up! I can’t wait to watch these two get married in the beautiful mountains. I’ve been here for a few days, and there’s just no place in the world like Aspen.
Look, any excuse to post Denali pics is a great day in my book! She spends most of her time very happy, kinda scared, or sleeping. Denali comes to work with me almost every day, but she’s not super effective as an assistant. She mainly keeps people away from my office by barking (which is…
It’s fall football season. Fantasy teams have been drafted. Preseason games are almost done being played. And beach flag football season (Beach City Sports) commences in two weeks. Football has brought immeasurable friends, fun, love, and family into my life. I am Graced by Football (in Graced by Grit’s Delicious Tank in royal, which is…
In this Manuka Secrets giveaway post, commenter Heatherette posted: Why do bees have sticky hair? Because they use honey combs. ? I was recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that attacks your secretion glands and causes dryness so I have been looking for something like this. The Texas heat and constant need for AC isn’t…
Here’s the faux-celeb part of my life—glitz and glam at OC Look 2015, hosted by Orange Coast magazine at a private residence in Newport Coast (where the real celebs live). The glam started with my gorgeous girldate and blowouts at Drybar, where they no longer serve champagne much to our chagrin, so we had to pop…
