I’m easing back into this whole “outfit” thing.  Postpartum dressing is not for the paint of heart.  Throw in a pandemic, and as you can probably guess, it’s kind of the worst slash nonexistent.   Your normal clothes don’t fit but also, you’re not going anywhere, so who cares, right?   BUT, for me personally, getting dressed […]

A $3 Shampoo I Love: L’Oreal Elvive Review

I’m a complex person; I enjoy the finer things in life but also LOVE a good deal.  Hidden gem restaurants?  I love to see it.  Cheap thrills from the drugstore–you know it.  In my shower, you’ll notice the same pattern.  I currently have Oribe Gold Lust shampoo (it’s thick, luxurious, smells amazing and I love […]

Winter Hike Style With Backcountry

*Thanks to Backcountry & ShopStyle for sponsoring this post!
