Be Good To Yourself
My aunt told me recently to “Be Good to Yourself” and ever since that advice has stuck with me. Often times we can be so hard on ourselves and neglect being good to ourselves. We often make sure that everyone around us is taken care of before taking care of ourselves. One way that I…
5 Ways to Be Productive
One of the things I love about the first few weeks of the New Year is a chance to take a look at my day-to-day routine to make adjustments and to look at my workspace whether in the office or at home and to do some clean-up. Something about starting fresh just makes me feel…
Breast Cancer Awareness x Vera Bradley
Hi Friends! Breast cancer is the most common cancer among American women. Each year in the US, about 281,000 women get breast cancer and 43,000 women die from this disease (Susan G. Komen). To me, those numbers are one too many. As someone who have family members such as aunts who are survivors, it’s definitely…
Goodbye 2020, Hello 2021!
Well my friends, the clock will strike midnight and we will welcome a New Year! I’m hopeful that 2021 will be better, and if it’s not better – I hope we’re all better in our own lives. 2020 was filled with lots of losses that we should count as lessons or blessings. For me it…
Merry & Bright
Can you believe Christmas is here! I’m telling you the little girl in me always gets anxious as Christmas day arrives. I must admit that I also go to bed early on Christmas eve just in case Santa stops by and I don’t want him spitting any coal in my eye (haha, thanks mom)! Today…
Beating The Holiday Blues
Hi Friends! One thing I know is that the Holiday blues are a real thing. As much as I love the Holiday season, I too still get in a little funk. It’s important to know that this is normal, and emotions can come in like waves, just know you’re not alone. I also tend to…
Thanksgiving Outfits + Tips to Stay Safe!
Can not believe we’re one week away from Thanksgiving! This year will be a little different, and I am a little sad about it, but as long as my family and friends are staying safe during this pandemic then I’m okay with that! There is still so much to be thankful for as we are…
Move Ya Body
Hi Friends! Y’all the #Quaratine15 is real! And unfortunately due to the extra pounds triggered my blood pressure to rise. Yikes! My numbers were a little scary and I was faced with BP medication in my hands ready to be taken back in July, until I did a little research and found that the medication…
Spilling The Tea on Cato’s Denim
Hi Friends! I’m spilling the tea today all about Cato’s Fashion Denim! I’ve partnered with Cato’s to share my favorite pair of jeans from their brand. You may recall last year, I shared some of my favorite denim from Cato’s which were the jeggings. Well this year I decided to try and share the boot-cut…

Nordstrom Anniversary 2020 Sale
Ahhh, it’s that time again the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. I may have snagged a cardigan last year and a few beauty products that were too good to pass up on, but other than that I don’t get wrapped up in the hype that I need “all” the things. I do believe in shopping “smart” -…
Anxiety Free Playlist
Hi Friends! Hope you’re holding on well during this pandemic. To be honest some days are fine, and other days are just plain hard. Emotions are all over the place at times. There are some days I’m drifting off thinking about the future filled with “what ifs”. If anything, I try to remind myself that…
5 Things To Do This Weekend
Hi Friends! I don’t know about you but I’m so over #quarantine – who’s with me? I decided that I was going to create a weekend of things that bring me joy while still keeping socially distancing safe but still lifting my spirits. Hit the snooze button! If you can sleep in tomorrow, but prepare…
Tips on Finding Your Style
Probably the most question I get is.. “How do you find what works for you?”. Let me tell you it has taken me YEARS to find what I like and can count on, and in the process find confidence in what I wear. I’ve always been on the curvy side in my younger years and…
Hello 33!
On June 8th I celebrated a birthday! Where are all of my Gemini’s? Whoop! Whoop! It’s been a weird birthday, I mean in the midst of a pandemic, hurricane season, and our fight to end injustices in our country, it’s an overwhelming season. I am VERY grateful to see another year and if it means…

How to Shop Online
I get a lot of messages asking how do I know which size to buy, so I thought I would share some of my tips and tricks when shopping online. It’s taken me a few years to finally nail down what size I need to order from certain brands after a lot of frustration of…
What Enneagram Number Are You?
Have you had someone ask you, “Hey, what’s your Enneagram number?”. Maybe you blurted out, “Yeah! I’m a 3!” or maybe have said, “What is the Enneagram?”. To be honest I’m not sure how long Enneagram has really been around, but I found out about this personality number about 2 years ago and ever since…
Protecting Your Mental Space
With the chaos of everything going on, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed or fearful of what’s to come. I do believe that this is a time for us all to reevaluate our priorities and to consider using this time for rest, home projects, quality family time in homes, etc. As someone who has and continues…

We still are having some chilly days, so that means cravings for warm meals is still in full swing! I made this once for my parents, and my mom has been requesting this White Chicken Chili atleast twice a month now. I make a big pot, and my mom is able to spread it out…
