Flashback Friday: 2011 Me vs. 2016 Me

Flashback Friday: 2011 Me vs. 2016 Me

{Source.} A lot can change in five years. Go back and watch old episodes of reality TV and you’ll see exactly what I mean. You don’t even have to watch Rock of Love or The Simple Life or The Girls Next Door to see it–you can pop in on season 8 or 9 of  Keeping Up With The Kardashians during one of the many marathons on E! and very clearly see just how different things were back in 2011. I mean,…

Shout out to my girl Nicole for sharing it with me! If you struggle with imposter syndrome like so many 20-somethings do, this must-read list from Buzzfeed is full of coping strategies and practical advice to…

The Difference Between Accountability + Support {and why you need BOTH if you're trying to lose weight!}

The Difference Between Accountability + Support {and why you need BOTH if you’re trying to lose weight!}

{Source.} Losing weight? Then you probably already familiar with the need for accountability or support. Here’s the thing, though: when we talk about fat loss, lifestyle changes, or dietary overhauls, “accountability” and “support” are used pretty much  interchangeably, but as concepts…they’re not. Accountability and support are actually two very different things. Want to know more? Read on! I’m…

Turmeric Lovin' - The Full Story On My Fave Spice!

Turmeric Lovin’ – The Full Story On My Fave Spice!

♡ If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen my post last week featuring wonder spice turmeric. As I mentioned there, I’m obsessed with turmeric because it has basically a million benefits: it’s an anti-inflammatory, a natural mood booster, it helps with cognitive function and aids digestion, and it does great things for skin when applied topically. To get my daily dose of turmeric, I buy…

'Netflix for Health' is a Thing, and I NEED It

‘Netflix for Health’ is a Thing, and I NEED It

{Via FMTV} Another week, another want! I came across this little item in a random email from the people behind Wanderlust Festival, and I was pretty much immediately interested. Like, wildly interested. So interested, in fact, that I’m writing this very post about it. The obsession is real. What IS it? Food Matters TV–AKA “Netflix for health”. NEED. {Via FMTV} FMTV is a subscription service that…

Frequent flyer? Then you might benefit from xoJane’s list of travel beauty tips! This article from Buzzfeed about lust-worthy Amazon finds is so bizarrely satisfying to me!

The Lust List: Fitbit Alta

The Lust List: Fitbit Alta

Simply gorgeous. {Via Fitbit} When I was a freshman in college, I wrote a column for CollegeCandy.com called “Weekly Wardrobe Wishlist”. {It’s pretty much exactly what it sounds like–a feature that focused on one particular piece of clothing, pair of shoes, or special accessory that I deemed worthy of 200 – 400 words.} Today, I’m kinda-sorta bringing it back with The Lust List. It just felt…

2016 just started, but there’s already a major list or “best ofs” in circulation. Check out the best food, beauty, and personal-care products for 2016 via Better Homes and Gardens, c/o The Today Show. I can TOTALLY relate to this Refinery 29 tale of Poshmark-obsession-turned-addiction thanks to my days as a buyer for a resale boutique. So good, so bad. Ahh, yikes. Heard of “cloud bread“?!…

Handmade Holiday: A Celeb-Inspired Valentine's DIY!

Handmade Holiday: A Celeb-Inspired Valentine’s DIY!

If you’ve caught an episode or two of Keeping Up with the Kardashians in the last few seasons or so, you may have noticed Khloe Kardashian’s ultra glam, meticulously-maintained cookie jars. Here’s the thing, though: it’s a project that only LOOKS complicated. In reality, all it takes is a circular glass storage jar, a few bags of cookies, and 10 minutes for assembly. Since February is all about…

How To Get Through February

How To Get Through February

I kind of hate February. Like, with the exception of Valentine’s Day, I think it’s pretty awful. I mean, you’re just in the thick of things. If you’re in school, it’s midterm season. And even if you’re not, the excitement of the holidays has worn off, it’s still cold {and usually REALLY cold in the parts of the country that I’ve lived!}, everyone is sick, and it’s mega gloomy.  It’s basically all…

Detoxing 2.0: 5 New Cleanses That Are Totally Doable

Detoxing 2.0: 5 New Cleanses That Are Totally Doable

BELIEVE ME – you got this. {Source.} New year, new you, new cleanse?! Uh huh, honey. No longer are we relegated to week long juice fasts, or picking at single-serving  macrobiotic meals at home while our friends go out and sip rosè and eat croquettes at happy hour. It’s a new era, babes. One wherein food FOMO is a thing of the past, even while you’re cleansing. While soups, smoothies, and raw…
