This post has been a long time coming and I am so excited that I can finally share 2 completed areas of our home!

SPF favorites for every occasion.
"I regret taking such good care of my skin" - said no one ever. We have heard it all of our lives -- "don't forget to put on sunscreen and reapply!" It has been ingrained in us since we were little and some of us listen and some of us don't, those who don't usually pay for it in the end. Either way, as I have gotten older I have more understood my mom's reasoning for protecting my skin and I …
How to Train Your Hair to Skip Washes and Keep It Healthy

Having a blog for the past few years I am always looking for beautiful places to take photos, at this point I feel like an expert at it!

My Top 8 Tips to Successfully Selling on Poshmark
I decided to start selling my clothes on Poshmark when I found myself donating gently used clothing that was basically brand new. I love to shop (clearly haha) so when I am done with something or don't fit into something anymore it's nice to know someone else will be able to get use out of it and it's also very nice to make a little bit of money back. I have had some success with it so now I am …

Food prepping can be one of the easiest ways to stay on top food intake during the week and I am sharing the easiest recipe that my husband makes every Sunday night.
