Saranghae Means I Love You

First off, 2 true confessions – #1, I am NO skin care expert and #2, I was the WORST about washing my face throughout high school and even college and beyond.  I fortunately didn’t really have any “skin issues”, so I thought it was totally fine to go to bed with my full face of makeup.  What 20 year old…

ALL the Stocking Stuffers

Stocking Stuffers tend to be my last minute gifts, but I love finding fun and unique items to stuff in my husband’s stocking and not just “fluff”.  My mom always stuffed our stockings with the best stuff:  our favorite lipgloss, facial moisturizer, gift cards, etc… Some years if it has been last minute, my husband and I both have simply…

Holiday Toddler Style

If I had a girl, I would be in so much trouble, because honestly, every store in the mall, and every boutique, has the CUTEST girls clothes.  Boys on the other hand are a tad bit more difficult.  Also, my oldest has an “older boy” hipster kind of style, while I am savoring the sweetness of my baby boy who…

Health on Track for the Holidays

Article just out and originally written for The Upstate Clutch. Check out their Monday Newsletter! Initially I started to title this, “Healthy Holidays”, but who would read that?  And, I honestly believe in balance and not necessarily depriving yourself from anything if you don’t have to.  I love to indulge and celebrate all the good things that Thanksgiving and Christmas have…

Jord Wooden Watch + Fall Family Pictures

First of all..this watch! It has been the most pleasant surprise. I’ll admit, I thought I was DONE with “real watches” once I got my Apple Watch earlier this year, but that all recently changed when I got this pretty Jord wooden watch.  When this watch arrived, I was immediately impressed by the packaging and the moment I slid the…

Drift Away

Honestly, going into this I was skeptical of the whole experience.  I had never even heard of a float spa, but I am all about anything therapeutic and relaxing.  If the name has “spa” in it, then I am in.  I was super excited when Drift Float Spa opened up in the neighborhood.  First, it was one of my favorite…
