Shine Cosmetics




I've teamed up with Shine Cosmetics and I have seriously fallen in love with their products! With the humidity here in Chicago this summer, I've had to find quality makeup that will go on great and last all day. 

Chicago Sweet Treats and Eats


Chicago is a big, exciting city full of art, architecture, and FOOD. It's been so fun to try so many goodies and, while I definitely wouldn't recommend deep dish pizza (sorry not sorry), here are a few of my favorites!

Summertime Swingin'


This summer has been a little different from the rest. This time, I've moved with my sweet husband across a few states and landed in Chicago, Illinois! It's been fun to mix things up a little and step outside my comfort zone, but I've never been a huge fan of change.

In honor of my sweet husband's 23rd birthday today, I thought it appropriate to dedicate a whole blog post to his handsome self! So...below you can read 23 fun facts, memories, and tidbits about my sweetheart. 

MaskCara Beauty


You've probably heard of this amazing new makeup that's perfectly matched to your skin tone and makes contouring a breeze.
