Last weekend, I finally took on the task of cleaning out and organizing our pantry, which admittedly became a catchall after our November move. Out of sight, out of mind, right? Though I’m thankful I was able to keep the mess behind closed doors for months, it also felt like time to give the pantry the de-clutter and focus it deserved. It can ...
Friday Five
Happy Friday! Lets get started! CAN’T STOP LISTENING TO… The Thousandth Floor series by Katharine McGee (who is a fellow Houstonian!) I’m on the third and final book in the series and just love it. These are totally YA novels – kind of like Gossip Girl set 100 years in the future – so if you’re into that, this is the series for you. I may be a ...
Why I’m Doing Invisalign & My Experience So Far
I loved going to the dentist as a child (probably because I never had any cavities) and was obsessed with braces. I remember wishing for and pretending I had braces – I was obsessed, haha! My dentist always told my mom that “if I was his daughter, he wouldn’t do braces,” so it had honestly never been a consideration. My mom told me she even took me ...
The Best Moving Tips From a Professional Organizer
We’ve moved four times and 12 years and each move got more and more complex as we grew our family and accumulated more things.

The Easiest Way to Hang Art + Frames on Your Wall
This post is about a handy little art hanging tool that I wish I had found years ago. I literally cannot rave enough about the ease of using this picturing hanging system. It's literally a ONE STEP process and I feel 100% confident doing it on my own. Last weekend, I hung two pieces of art in Lincoln's bathroom and used this High & Mighty ...
Friday Five
Happy Friday! I took last Friday off from work to renew my Green Card and I got SO MUCH done around the house. It’s the first time since we’ve moved in that I had a sense of everything being where it should be. Of course there’s much more to be done, but it’s a nice feeling to settled in. I mostly worked on the kids rooms and also had my ...

Currently Craving…Spring
This time of year always makes me want to tuck away my winter coats and sweaters and start making a colorful wish list for Spring. We've had a few days this winter that are so warm, it feels like spring anyway. One of the tops I'm most looking forward to wearing come spring is this gorgeous bow sleeve tank. I got so much great feedback about it ...
How to Grow Your Lashes + Brows & My Eye Makeup Routine
Thank you Nordstrom for sponsoring this post. Eyebrows have always been one of my most prioritized features. I used to pluck them really thin (#highschoolbrows) and when I was 15 or so, my modeling agency told me I had to grow them back (ie: not pluck them ever until they fully grew out). Once they did, I finally realized that my brows were ...
