If I’m wearing an outfit some would consider “fashionable,” there’s about a 90% chance that StitchFix picked it out to me. The other 10% comes from the fact that I really, really like Nordstrom Rack. It’s hard to believe that I started doing StitchFix boxes almost a year ago, and they’ve just continued to get…

I think by now we’ve established the fact that I’m obsessed with Italy. I was always convinced I wanted to live there, even though I’ve never been, and now that I’ve actually visited, it just confirmed everything I thought to be true. Walking around, I felt like I did live there, except for the major factors…

Greetings from newlywed land! To say 2013 has been a whirlwind would be the understatement of the century. Prepping for a wedding can be insanely stressful but knowing that we were due to hop on a plane for Maui immediately after was enough to get us through the last hectic week or two.  I wanted…

I tend to go through major shopping droughts. I think our wallet enjoys it because I live in workout clothes and get my monthly StitchFix box -which doesn’t feel like “real” shopping, haha- but then all of a sudden, there will be an avalanche of awesome deals and… things happen. Since I always love when fellow…

Someone needs to check me into the rose-obsessed clinic. It’s getting a little fierce. It all started when my friend made me the refreshing rose facial spray. In addition to providing an awesome glow and burst of energy, it smelled absolutely heavenly. I also think it triggered a scent memory in me by making me…

You hear that? It’s the sound of fashion crickets over here 🙂 I’ve missed the fashion page! It comes and goes depending on what’s going on. Things got really busy with Kyle and Meg’s wedding -maybe I’ll ask her to do a honeymoon/vacation fashion post!- and have finally settled into a summer groove. Summer is…

Throughout my teen years and even into college, I was always aware of my body’s need for fitness to remain healthy and happy. My last two years of college, however, I was stressed, busy, and tired constantly. These were my barista years at Starbucks and while they were a blast, it wasn’t a great environment…

In addition to the usual fitness questions I receive for the blog, I also get a lot of hair questions and dating/relationship questions.  I can’t really help much with the dating stuff -I’ve been out of the game for.. 8 years? haha- but for the hair stuff I have a better idea of what to…

Confession: I have an issue with clutter.  I’m definitely not proud of these messy habits I’ve picked up over the years and I’m working to change them. I’m one of those people who is never satisfied with an outfit until I’ve tried 3 on (the other two end up on the floor or my bed…) and…

I am thrilled to share THE cutest jewelry product with you. My Aunt Kerry is a consultant for a unique jewelry company called Origami Owl. They have an amazing story of how they came to be and the locket I recently bought from her is literally perfect! You can read more about their story on…

I’ve mentioned it a few times before, and this is one of the huge reasons why the ever-fashionable Meg writes most of the posts over here, but I’m pretty boring with my clothes selection. At least, I used to be. I bought outfits that I knew matched, shopped at the same stores, stuck with the same…

[Note from Gina: thank you to Meg for increasing my desire to chop all my hair off] The world officially has “Spring Fever”. Okay, maybe not the entire world, but the world of blogging/pinning/and instagramming. People seem to be generally fed up with winter. I’ve always obsessed over winter: cute scarves, hot cocoa, BOOTS, but…
