WE. ARE. BACK.
After a little holiday hiatus, and a minor website issue, I’m back to blogging, and coming at you with something BIG to kick off the new year.

J Crew Style Event
Christmas has been, and forever will be one of my very favorite times of year. I love everything about it- the city draped in twinkly lights like little diamonds frosting buildings and trees; Christmas carols gently filtering through each radio station; hot holiday cocktails layered with fresh citrus and spices; and of course, the swanky holiday soirees filled with delicious food, lots of laughs and of course, dear friends.
This year, as a little cherry on top, I’ve paired up with J. Crew at Flatirons Crossing to host a styling event focused on party ready looks full of color and sparkle.
This Friday, December 14th from 5-8pm, I’ll be there to help style and shop, while sipping on refreshments, enjoying some sweet treats, and everyone that comes out will enjoy 30% off your purchase!
To say I’m excited about this event is an understatement, and nothing would make me happier than seeing a few friendly faces, so if you’re interested check out the event page: J. Crew Styling Icon and make sure to RSVP!
Childlike in Wonder, Romantic in Revolt
“I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.”- Robert Fulghum, All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten: Uncommon Thoughts on Common Things.
I was at dinner the other night with one of my college girlfriends when I asked, “is this where you thought you’d be by now?” Coming from a girl that had just locked her own keys in to her car the second time that month (shout out to AAA), I think I was asking more out of desperation than anything else. Hoping that there was someone to commiserate with my own feelings of uncertainty that’s hovered close by throughout most of my mid-twenties.
4th and Festive
Y’all. I LIVE for the Fourth of July.
It’s my very favorite holiday (just after Christmas, but it’s a VERY close second), and has been since I was little. Read More

Crushed Velvet Dreams
Summer concert season is officially upon us, and what says summer concert more than wild wavy hair, a leather jacket and a crushed velvet jumpsuit?
Nothing?
I thought so…
Modern Nomad and Squeaky Shoes
Have you ever owned something that you’re obsessed with in all sorts of irrational ways? No? Just me?
Well I can’t explain it, but that’s these shoes for me. I LOVE them.
You are more than Beautiful
“i want to apologize to all the women i have called beautiful
before i’ve called them intelligent or brave
i am sorry i made it sound as though
something as simple as what you’re born with
is all you have to be proud of
when you have broken mountains with your wit
from now on i will say things like
you are resilient, or you are extraordinary
not because i don’t think you’re beautiful
but because i need you to know
you are more than that” -Rupi Kaur
Black and Breezy
If you go outside at night,
After the world has gone to sleep,
You can hear the planet sigh,
Under the secrets it can’t keep,
And the wind sings different tunes,
So this is 25
A few days ago one of my college friends posted about joining a bowling league with the hashtag #sothisis25
Since then, I’ve found myself repeating that same line to myself throughout the day, almost as a reminder that while this may not always have been where I pictured myself at 25, nevertheless here I am. And for the most part, I think I’m ok with it. #sothisis25
