LUXE Gift Guide

Hi Friends! I know that most of us have a “hard to buy for” recipient on our lists, and maybe you are looking for something that is really taking it up a notch. That is exactly what this guide is made for. LUXE doesn’t mean more money, although some items on the list are more expensive than others. It just means more unique and more luxurious items. I know that we could all use another pair of socks, but wouldn’t it be great to just KNOCK their socks off!

Here’s a small look at some of the items that I picked out, and they truly are luxurious items that many would not buy for themselves.

Looking for more? See the whole gift guide on the Holiday Shop Page Here.

As always, Thank You  for your time here, and I hope you have found the perfect gift on your list.

Look of the Day: Plaid Wrap and Denim

Hi Friends!

The fact that I survived the weekend in Vegas is reason enough for me to say that I had a successful week! 🙂 That time change combined with wanting to see ALL THE THINGS… whew. Wipes a girl out! 😉 I have a new outfit of the day for you though, and this wrap is all kinds of fun! Sometimes you just don’t want to wear a coat and you would rather wear a blanket… basically that’s what  I have for you today!
Easy layers and a fun, statement blanket wrap make this outfit ready for anything you have going on this season! I added my fun backpack to add a little edge, and the booties are easy and edgy too! Truly this look says “Put Together” without that much effort!

I so hope you found some outfit inspiration today on Today’s Featured Look! If you did, I can’t wait to see how you styled it! 🙂

Thank you to Julie Laforte for providing the Earrings for today’s Look.

Hi Friends!

Nearly the weekend! The Hubs and I are off to a really fun adventure this weekend! I hope you will follow along in stories, its sure to be exhausting and amazing at the same time. Today’s look is an easy outfit with a versatile sweater that is easy to wear with either leggings or denim. I have this one also in black, which is unfortunately out of stock, but the gray is still available. The sweater is lightweight so you won’t feel overheated when you are at a holiday gathering, but cozy enough too! I paired it with gray booties and jeans this time just to show you how easy it is to give it a little front tuck and get out the door!

Thank you so much for stopping by, and as always, I can’t wait to see how you style it!

Monthly Favorites Recap: October

HI Friends!

What a Month!  I can’t recap the month without first extending a hand in gratitude to you, my tribe, this community. This month my life was FOREVER changed. It was quite emotional for me losing my Dad this month has totally rocked my world. But somehow each day I seem to wake up and I am determined to continue to press on. I am so happy for all the wonderful and kind words you have each said to me during this time. Many of you have showed even more bravery in sharing your own personal stories with me. Trust me it does not fall on deaf ears. Don’t you think that it helps to know you aren’t going through things alone? I hope for each of you, the pain subsides in some way and you are able to enjoy things in life again.

This cream sweater is a favorite for us for the past month and there’s no slowing this baby down! This color is big time perfect for winter!

 

This month we had a HUGE month of SO Many favorites! I really had to narrow it down because we hit it out of the park with so much cozy and sale items!

This cozy snap up fleece is SO insanely good, unfortunately nearly sold out– if you have yet to snag one you better!

Ya’ll by far one of THE most sought after jackets of ALL TIME! This traveler jacket is CRAZY good! You all must have the same feelings as me, Black is my Happy Color. I’m wearing a size L-put this baby on your Christmas list if you need to you wont regret it!

 

Oh the most coveted poncho of the month…Sadly sold out SEVERAL times. Relinking it for you Just in case it happens to decide to restock! 😉

 

 

My Microneedling Journey with Juvly

HI Friends!

Since there was so much interest and questions about my Microneedling appointment, I thought I would put together a blog post where you can find all the details along with photos from my experience. Microneedling has a BUNCH of benefits from fine lines, wrinkles, pore size and skin texture. I am really looking to improve the texture of my skin and reduce the pore size. I have quite a bit of acne scarring, with all the research that I have done, Microneedling will deliver the best results. Microneedling is suggested for anywhere from 3-6 treatments in order to achieve VERY noticeable results, so this will be a progressive post as I will be multiple treatments.

This was my very first ever treatment, needless to say I was a little nervous. Overall however, now being through it, I didn’t really need to be all that nervous. Yes there were moments that were uncomfortable, but it wasn’t that bad. My face was numbed all over, and actually that took the longest from start to finish. The actual process of Microneedling only took about 15-20 minutes- NOT BAD!

 

| IMMEDIATELY BEFORE |

| DURING |

I know this looks gnarly, but the purpose is to make you skin bleed. By doing this you are requiring your skin to repair and what happens when it does that is it will create Collagen and Elastin which will result in a more smooth look. As we age, our bodies don’t create that much anymore, so this is a treatment that will do it for you!

| IMMEDIATELY AFTER | 

Once all the blood was wiped away, it was just really red. It felt like a really strong sunburn, a little tight and hot. Over that night, It went away.

| MORNING AFTER |

Here you can see A LOT of my redness has gone away, but there are plenty of areas where the pen went in deeper which resulted in the redness and slight shadow bruising.

| ONE WEEK LATER |

                         

This pas week I had a tiny bit of peeling around my chin, which my provider told me that would be normal. Still a bit of discoloration, especially under my eyes. But that’s nothing makeup can’t handle. There is MARKED improvement on how smooth my skin is. The sizes of my pores have begun to reduce a tiny bit, but I think this is the area that will take a few more treatments in order to really see results.

My posting this journey is in hopes of helping others that might suffer from these same problems and showing you there is hope and help you find the courage to take action! You can find out the full details on pricing as well as other details the website of my provider here. Always, if you have any other questions about it, feel free to ask!

Thank you for stopping by!
