I have somewhere around 100 pairs of vintage sunglasses, and if you had asked me a year ago I would not have admitted that out loud. Somewhere between my LA days and my move to Atlanta, I became the kind of collector who cannot pass up a great pair of sunglasses at an estate sale, and like a lot of Gen X women right now, I am in a season of actually looking at everything I own and asking myself whether it still earns a place in my life. So I filmed myself going through the co

There is something about a slow cup of coffee that makes an ordinary morning feel a little more special, and that is exactly the idea behind the coffee tray I have been styling on my counter lately. Coffee beans, a slow pour, a few vintage cups, and a marble tray turned a five minute routine into something I actually look forward to, and judging by how many of you asked about it after I posted the video, I am clearly not the only one who feels that way about a good coffee rit

Somewhere between Los Angeles and Georgia, buried in snow just outside Williams Arizona, is one of my favorite stops from any road trip I have ever taken. My friend and fellow road trip driver, Leta Taylor, and I were making our third cross country drive together, except this time we actually slowed down enough to stop at the places we always used to drive past. That decision is exactly how we ended up standing in the snow hand feeding deer, and I was so happy the whole time

A few months ago I wrote about how I wasn't sure what my office gallery wall should look like. Well, it's finally done, and I could not be happier with how it turned out.

If you saw my latest social media post, you already know I am torn. I found the most incredible designer sofa for free on Facebook Marketplace, and now I am trying to decide between two animal print fabrics to reupholster it in. So many of you have been asking where the fabric is from, so I am putting everything in one place here, the full story, both fabric options, and where to shop everything I will need to bring this project to life.

I am back with a quick thrift trip, and this one had a few surprises I did not see coming. If you are in Atlanta, City Thrift is on Roswell Road near the Big Chicken, (1140 Roswell Rd Marietta, GA 30062) and it has become one of my regular stops. Wait, You Can Return Thrift Store Finds? Before I even got inside, I learned something new. Apparently you can return items at the thrift store if something did not work out, which honestly changes how I think about trying things on

This post may contain affiliate links. See my full disclosure on the Shop My Links page. Animal print is one of the biggest fashion trends for fall, and this year it feels less like a bold statement and more like a wardrobe essential. Leopard, zebra, and the softest faux fur are showing up on everything from tailored coats to cozy cropped jackets, which makes the print easy to wear no matter your personal style. I have been slowly building my own collection of animal print ou

Fall wedding season means one thing on repeat: standing in my closet wondering if I already wore this to someone else's wedding. So this year I actually sat down and pulled real options across every dress code, from black tie down to boho outdoor, all in colors that feel like the season instead of fighting it. 1. BHLDN Basque Waist Square Neck Maxi Dress Purple, $428. A structured basque waist and clean square neckline in a deep, rich purple that reads as elegant, not costume

I've been thinking about adding a gallery wall to my office, and naturally, I went down the rabbit hole of collecting inspiration. I love a gallery wall because it can make a room feel collected rather than decorated. And the more I look at them, the more I realize that there really isn't one right way to do it. Some are colorful and eclectic. Some are traditional. Some mix photography with paintings. Some use ornate vintage frames. Some are almost entirely black and white. A

Scuba diving in Tulum, Mexico

I woke up and decided I wanted vintage jewelry. Not a plan, not a project, just a feeling. So I mapped out four antique malls around Cobb County and gave myself one mission: find some nice heavy gold pieces. I did not entirely stick to the plan, but that is half the fun of a day like this. Stop One: Marietta Antique Mall 1477 Roswell Rd, Suite 100, Marietta, GA 30062 This is the spot I usually go to for furniture and accessories, so hunting for jewelry here felt new. It is a

If you’ve ever thought about selling your clothes online but felt overwhelmed by the process, let me tell you something: sometimes the best way to learn is to just start. That’s exactly what happened during my first weekend selling on Whatnot. I hosted three live shows, sold more than 70 items, and made about $927 in sales. Not bad for a weekend experiment! But once the excitement of the live shows ended, reality set in… I had a mountain of packages to ship. In this post, I’m

Vlogmas Day 1: A 5am Flight to LA, Red Velvet Cake, Venice Canals & The Brow Trip Begins Vlogmas 2025 is officially here and I could not think of a better way to kick off the month than with an early morning flight, a quick trip to the West Coast, and a little adventure around one of my favorite places in Los Angeles. This year, my Vlogmas series will follow a mix of travel, everyday life, and the little moments that make December feel magical. And Day 1 definitely delivered.

Every Saturday morning between 6 and 10 a.m., the LA Wholesale Fashion District quietly opens up to the public. Vendors who normally sell only to boutique buyers set up in the alleys around 12th and Crocker and put out their samples, overstock, and last season's pieces, often for a fraction of retail. In my most watched video yet, I gave myself a strict $200 budget and spent a morning digging through it all. Here's where to go, what to expect if you have never been, and exact

At this point… just call me a pastry chef. 😮‍💨I wanted a fall dessert but didn’t feel like going to the store, so I opened my pantry, searched Pinterest for a little inspiration, and decided to combine the best of both worlds: an Apple Pie Cake. Yes, it is exactly what it sounds like.And yes, it is absolutely fall in every bite. 🍎🍏✨ The best part? I completely freestyled it. Ingredients (Freestyle Edition) Disclaimer… these measurements are close enough, but not exac
