I’m a little partial that this dress is a great option to wear to a fall wedding because, well, I wore it to a fall wedding a few weeks ago. The fabric is dark and luxe looking and the sleeves are long, even if the shoulders are bare. The midi length makes it look both […]
I’ve talked about my career journey on the blog before (working mom struggle post here); it’s a huge part of me and the blog itself has changed my career trajectory. I’ve been challenging myself since the beginning of my career. As a finance major who fell into management consulting, it was a new challenge every […]
In full transparency, MUJI reached out to me for an instagram collaboration last month (see the post here) but I had to research the brand first because I had never heard of it! However, this post is not sponsored–I just want to share what I’ve learned about MUJI because, from what I’ve read and experienced […]

I’ve tried a handful of meal kits and I enjoy the new recipes and portioned ingredients, however, my schedule is all over the place and sometimes I don’t know how many times I’ll eat at home in a week. Well, there’s great news for that–Home Chef is now available at Mariano’s stores! Do you know […]
