Charleston’s Most Romantic Hotel

David and I love Charleston. It's one of our favorite cities in the world, and one of the places that we visit most in the U.S. Whenever someone asks me for a recommendation for a romantic getaway, Charleston is one of the first places that I recomm...

Our Guide to New Orleans

I'm gonna level with you - I'm not sure if David and I are really New Orleans people. I mean, there's part of it I love. Beignets? Cheese grits? Beautiful architecture? SIGN ME UP FASTER THAN A HALF PRICE SALE AT MODCLOTH. But, considering that most...

Taking Care of Extensions During Summer

If I could only be allowed one beauty product for the rest of my life, it would be my extensions from Cinderella Hair Extensions. I started getting extensions about five years ago, and have used all kinds of brands. After finding Cinderella Hair Ext...

Downtown Mckinney Date Night

One of my favorite spots in the Dallas area for date night is the Historic Downtown in Mckinney. The whole area looks like Stars Hollow come to life - I almost expect to run into Taylor Doose trying to wrangle you into a town hall meeting. The whole...

The Best Summer Skincare

Summer is my favorite time of the year. Growing up, I would live for summers. Night swimming at the pool, long days in the sun - even the smell of coconut makes me feel nostalgic. I wanted to share some of my favorite skincare I've been reaching for...

Fourth of July in Grayton Beach

With everything being so different this year, David and I've cancelled most of our trips, and instead have been doing shorter road trips that we can drive to. We spent the long weekend for Fourth of July in one of our favorite places, Grayton Beach,...

Floating the River in Texas

I love most things about living in Texas. One of my favorite things though, is going to the Hill Country in the summer, and floating the river. You can rent tubes from tons of different outfitters, then tie them together for a leisurely float. We no...

Coffee at Magnolia Market

This past Saturday, we took a side-trip to Waco, Texas to visit Magnolia Market. David and I love renovating. Is that weird? We love seeing a space, and imaging what it has the possibility to be. This has led to many a Fixer Upper marathon. We dream...

A Saturday in Austin, Texas

I bleed Texan. If someone starts singing 'the stars at night are big and bright', you can expect me to yell 'deep in the heart of Texas' at the top of my lungs. I know it's been said that Texans have a little too much state pride, but what can I say...
