Balancing a full-time job with my blog and a photography business makes life pretty chaotic at times, but it also keeps things exciting! I often get asked how I do it all, and it’s something I’m continually trying to figure out and get better at. What I do know at this point is that I try to be as efficient and organized as possible, which doesn’t come naturally to me. As I’m getting better at navigating it all, I thought I would share a few things I swear by with a busy schedule…
Read MoreI’m definitely a believer in looking for the good in each day, and I also love little routines, so the simple things in life often bring me so much happiness! Of course traveling to amazing destinations and celebrating life milestones make me incredibly happy, but those don’t happen all the time, so I think it’s important to find what makes you happy and what you’re grateful for in your everyday life.
Read MoreSo naturally there are a lot of things I’ve changed my mind about as I’ve matured and learned more (some very menial like not being preppy anymore and some very serious like political stances), but I thought I would share 5 very random things that came to mind! I asked you guys on Instagram about things you’ve changed your mind on, and I loved seeing your responses! Here are a handful of my favorites…
Read MoreWhoa, I cannot believe summer is flying by as fast as it is! Though most of us work year-round and the buildup to summer isn’t as exciting as it used to be, I still get so excited for the summer months, the sundresses and warm weather, and the unique things you can do. Before fall arrives, I wanted to make a little list of fun and/or positive things we can all do to celebrate the end of summer!
Read MoreOn my journey toward living a happier, healthier life, I can’t help but to think back on how far I’ve come in the past 12 years. I would be lying if I said I’ve always had it together and been focused on my health, because that couldn’t be further from the truth. Although it’s a bit scary to open up about, I know it’s time to share my journey with you and get it all out there...
Read MoreI've always known my priorities would shift as I got older and matured, but it's so interesting to sense it happening! Since it's something that's on my mind a lot lately, I thought I would share about it here...
Read MoreBelieve it or not, but the past few summers I've only had 1 or 2 swimsuits and haven't really gotten into shopping for them. I just never wanted to spend much money on them, and thought the only swimsuits I liked were over $100. However, this year I've discovered a few swimsuit lines that are very affordable but are still high quality, so I've found myself with several really cute and well fitting swimsuits in my lineup this summer! I thought I would share these brands with you!
Read MoreI recently read this post by Sivan Ayla about 3 words that describe her, and immediately wrote it down as a conversation topic for my friend Jo and I for our recent Texas road trip. It turned into such an interesting exercise that I wanted to share it with all of you!
At first it was difficult to think of words that described me (just like writing about yourself or writing your own resume is so freaking hard), but after asking Jo how she would describe me and paying attention to how I described myself in conversation, I ended up with a list I had to narrow down.
Read MoreI recently tried the Keto diet (more of a “Keto-ish” reset) for 4 weeks. I saw an astounding amount of success, so when 96% of you on Instagram (whoa!) wanted a blog post about my experience, I was extra excited to write this post!
