As much as I love sparkle, I have a tendency to wear the same few pieces of jewelry over and over again. Obviously it’s fine to have favorites, but I need to be a little better about switching it up. So when Blair from Rocksbox contacted me about their subscription service, I was totally into it. […]
Are you Team Pie or Team Cake? I’ve always been more of a Team Pie girl myself, so, of course, I thought about making something akin to a Derby pie for the Kentucky Derby. But there are a few problems. First: Derby pie is copyrighted, and the recipe is closely guarded. Second: One of our friends — […]
Nike’s NTC Tour made its only stop in the U.S. in April — and because it was just up the road in Los Angeles, I pretty much had to go. The only problem? I had no idea what to expect. It was scheduled for almost six hours (ending at midnight!) on a Saturday night in […]
After running the Star Wars half marathon and vowing to be better prepared for the Tinkerbell half… life happened. So not only have I not been running as much as I had wanted to (because of an injury), I also am behind in my costume prep. However, I did want to share one DIY costume […]
I think y’all know by now that I never need an excuse to drink margaritas and eat guacamole. But if you do need an excuse, Cinco de Mayo is pretty much the best there is. I would urge you not to go to a lame chain Mexican restaurant (e.g. Chi Chi’s). Instead, seek out a Mexican […]
Somehow, even though I’ve been married to a boy from Kentucky for nearly eight years, I’ve never been to the Kentucky Derby. One year, we were thisclose to going… but then had to cancel our flights and go to North Carolina to look for houses instead. Womp womp. Anyway, we weren’t able to go this […]
I’ve been traveling a lot for work in the past few weeks, and while I haven’t been able to take normal outfit photos from lots of angles, I wanted to share some of the things I’ve been wearing with you. After all, the whole reason I started posting outfit photos in the first place was to show […]
I hate diet food. I have always thought fat-free cookies, sugar-free ice cream and “lite” anything is just plain gross. I’d rather drink water than Diet Coke, and I’d rather eat nothing than some kind of weird, allegedly healthy frankenfood. But since I have a few very serious allergies, I certainly understand that many people need to […]
Boutique fitness studios have been popping up all over the place in the past few years: Barre, yoga, spinning, TRX, pilates, CrossFit… you name it, there’s a studio or gym for it. And while I do really like barre (I’m working on a post now about what to expect at your first barre class), it […]
I’ve been making and drinking smoothies since childhood, but I have to admit it had never occured to me to add greens to the mix. But, before the green juice craze started, I was talking to a neighbor and she mentioned that she always adds a handful or two of spinach to smoothies for her […]
