6 Ways I’m Spring Cleaning My Life + You Can Too

Ahhhh spring is in the air! Kind of. I mean, aside from the once a week snow storm, we’ve been having some pretty amazing weather here in Aspen. It’s been sunny and warm-ish and I swear I can feel everything start coming back to life. Which makes me feel like…

Can I be honest with you guys? It’s been a while since the last time I made a New Year’s resolution. I guess they just aren’t really my thing? Maybe I’m lazy… maybe I’m scared… or maybe it’s just got something to do with my background in marketing? Every year,…

7 Tools To Help You Fight The Winter Blues

Like pretty much everything else in life, the ‘fall back’ part of daylight savings has both pro’s and con’s. Pro: It get’s lighter earlier so it’s easier to wake up earlier. Con: It gets darker earlier so your body/brain is all WTF is going on?  And that my friends, is…

  • Happy Tuesday friends! How was the start to your week?! Mine was preeetty good 👍 and now I’m going to be spending today and tomorrow finalizing some blog posts I’ve been working on these past few weeks but haven’t actually had a chance to finish 😬 Speaking of which... I’m curious how many of you guys are cautious of your skin care products and make up. Do you already use clean products 🙋🏼‍♀️, do wish you knew more about clean products but don’t know where to start 💁🏼‍♀️, orrrrr do you kind of just not really care and like to use whatever product you’ve found that works/looks best on you no matter the contents 🤷🏼‍♀️? Tell me all about it in the comments 👇👇👇

  • Snowy Sunday’s are for sleeping in, snuggles, pup walks, andddd getting ready to start my new job with @freepeople tomorrow! 😬 I kind of took an unexpected blog/Instagram break the past month or so to reprioritize and get back in tune with what truly makes me happy 💕 And it turns out, the idea of going back to work and getting the chance to be creative with others was something that made me excited and I think I’ve really just been missing it these last few years. So I started a job hunt and then the perfect opportunity opened up with FP andddd it all kind of snowballed from there! 🤗 I’m super excited for this new chapter and can’t wait to see what comes!

  • Truth: I may not wear a lot of make up IRL but I never leave the house without giving my brows some love. I am loving this new @Neutrogena nourishing brow pencil that helps keep your brows nice and healthy. Not to mention it goes on super smooth and does a really good job filling in the ends where my brows are scarce. Grab this brow pencil from @Walgreens and you canget the new Hydroboost Mascara (or any other Neutrogena product) for 50% off. How do you like to sculpt your brows and keep them healthy? #ad #neutrogenaXwalgreens
