Could not be happier that pool season has finally arrived!!!! ☀️💦 Spending a week in @thefloridakeys with my @babes_thatwander is just what I needed. Although it is technically work, it feels so great to step away from the screens and enjoy life. More to come! #reconnectinthekeys 👙by @bromelia_swimwear ✨SIZE UP✨ I’m usually XS/S & wearing a Medium. 📸 by @greta_hollar at the @southernmostbeachresort Tranquility Pool 😌 (at Key West, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdHanf8sxNd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Anyone else trying to cut back on drinking? I love the ritual of sipping on something delicious at the end of a long day, but I’m at the age where I feel the aftermath even just after one glass 😢 So when it comes to the day to day, Ryan and I have switched to mocktails…and we’re obsessed! No hangovers, no hanxiety, and no guilt! I’m sharing my top 3 current faves on the blog + coupon codes for you to try them yourself! Cheers!

It’s ok to take time off! Last week, I took my mom on a quick, easy trip to @wrightsvillenc. We had a magical time filled with wine on the beach🍷🏖 , cheesy movies, and lots of pizza 🍕. Spending time with your loved ones is what life is all about. Feeling so refreshed and inspired ✨ Travel Guide coming soon! When was the last time you took a well-deserved break? #motherdaughtertrip #weekendgetaway #beachdestination #MyWBAdventure #WrightsvilleBeach #bohovibes #70sstyle (at Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CboCIp8sVtG/?utm_medium=tumblr

My kind of throne 👸🏻✨✌🏼 How great are these 70s vibes? Sometimes I feel like I was born in the wrong era. Then I remember I make a living off social media and web design 🤣 Wearing the lovely @showmeyourmumu in @wrightsvillenc this past weekend. What an amazing getaway! #flowerchild #bohoqueen #showmeyourmumu #MyWBAdventure #WrightsvilleBeach #70saesthetic #beachweekend (at Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbdt0wBMWVU/?utm_medium=tumblr

This warmer weather has me so excited for carefree beach days and sunset sips ☀️🍹. Until then, I'm bringing Mexico to me with @flybirdcocktails margaritas! AD: Made in Mexico with 100% blue weber agave wine and all-natural ingredients, #justaddice and you're instantly transported to a summer paradise. My favorite so far is the Strawberry 🍓, but I'm still trying to get my hands on the Watermelon Cucumber & Blood Orange 🍉🍊. Get yours right here in ATL at Target, Sprouts, and Cost Plus World Market. Cheers to a convenient, instant margarita! #FLYBIRDPartner #margaritasmadeeasy 📷 by @ryanaaronphoto (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca8T1p6MR9X/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sometimes you just need a bestie hang 👯‍♀️ My LA trip was full of best friend time and it’s hard to put into words how happy it made me. Lifelong friends are such a special relationship and I’m honored to go through life with these girls 💗 not pictured: @arielleshare - can’t wait for our trip in September! 📸 by @ryanaaronphoto #bestfriends #bestiesforlife #bffgoals (at Santa Monica, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Can1k8zMsVd/?utm_medium=tumblr

My downstairs powder room has finally been completed!🪞✨This project was a long one, especially for such a small space (matching gold tones is no easy feat!). But I wanted to make sure it was something I’d love for years to come. It’s fresh and feminine with the prettiest custom mural by @huega.creative. I shared a cost breakdown both on the blog and reels, plus links to buy it all. Spoiler alert: the grand total was just over $600 🤯 (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaGNXf9MNWN/?utm_medium=tumblr

Happy Valentine’s Day, y’all! I’m honor of the holiday, I thought it would be fun to share some fun facts about us! 💖We matched on a dating app! But didn’t meet until months later after spotting each other at a bar - both on dates with other people! 🙊😬 💕Ryan is 2.5 years older than me 👴🏼👩🏻‍🦱 💗Our hometowns are about 2 hours apart, but we didn’t meet until we both moved to Atlanta! 🏙 💞We’ve been to 6 countries on 3 continents together…and counting!🌏✈️ 💓We love great bourbon and playing video games together 🥃🎮 Your turn!

Is there any better way to spend a Friday night?🤣📼🍿Talk about a blast from the past: we found the last Blockbuster in @visitbend! The nostalgia was strong here as we browsed through movies, merch, and memorabilia. Definitely a must when in Bend! What was your go-to snack at checkout back in the day? Mine will always be sour skittles! 🌈 Photo by @greta_hollar @babes_thatwander #babesthatwander #visitbend #roambetterbend #nostalgia #blockbuster #blastfromthepast #nostalgic #90skid (at Bend, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZkEhpoOxC1/?utm_medium=tumblr

Ya girl is officially a snow bunny ❄️🐇 I had the most magical time in Bend, Oregon with @visitbend & @babes_thatwander!! Y’all know I usually go to tropical destinations so this was quite the change for me - and I LOVED it! We went snowmobiling with @central_oregon_adventures + so many more outdoor activities during our stay. Can’t wait to share more!

Those brass details✨I’m so thrilled with how my home is coming together! I recently swapped out all my basic builder door handles with high quality knobs from @emtek_products and it made ALL the difference.🚪🔑 Seen here: the Verve knob. What do you think - should I add an arch to all doorways next? A gal can dream 💭 More on lushtoblush.com 🖤 pro tip: keep your doors themselves (color, style, etc.) and door hardware consistent throughout your home for a cohesive feel.

✨Happy New Year✨ There’s no denying that the past two years have been extremely tough. I personally capped off 2021 with a nice case of you-know-what, forcing @atl.realtor and me to spend Christmas alone–a reminder that things don’t always go as planned! Which is why I’ve shifted this year from resolutions and goals to *habits*. One of the biggest struggles I have yet to overcome is achieving a healthy work/life balance. For 2022, I’m aiming to adopt a few new wellness habits like: 💧*Staying hydrated with the help of @healthish water bottle. The stylish design and cheeky commentary on the bottle itself brings some fun to it! 🧴*Sticking to a skincare routine that works for my sensitive skin! My favorite right now is @replenix, but I just got introduced to @sircuitskin “OMG serum” and I’m obsessed! 🚴🏻‍♀️*Riding the @onepeloton at least 3 times per week, even if it’s as short as a 10-minute ride (hey, it’s better than nothing!) 🧖🏻‍♀️*Taking a daily vitamin for all the added benefits like healthy aging, reducing stress + anxiety and helping with my tough periods (@flovitamins) 🥬*Eating more foods that fuel me. One effortless way I have found to do that is @dailyharvest! Any habits you’re trying to implement into your routine for the new year?
