In my college years, I owned a pair of snakeskin print, strappy sandals from Wal-Mart that I wore with everything. In fact, you may have seen me huddled outside a club, waiting for one-in-one-out to go my way with my bare toes near snow. I’m much more sensible now, but I still love snakeskin. It’s…
While some fashion trends are fun and fleeting, others stand the test of time. This fall, I’ll be reaching for the usual suspects – plaid, great sweaters and 1,000 boots.

For several years, I’ve been a big fan of Kate Somerville’s UncompliKated SPF 50 Soft Focus Makeup Setting Spray. A sunscreen and make-up setting spray in one, it is a staple product of mine for a lot of reasons. The first is probably the biggest. It takes no time to put on. You simply spray the…

Overnight masks have always worked best for me, because,…
It’s the most wonderful time of year when the air is cold and your lips feel like sandpaper. Well, I’ve found a way to solve half of your problems. I had heard of the Sara Happ Lip Slip before, but decided to give it a try after the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. They offered a set…
Jewelry can be inexpensive way to switch up your look. Over the last several months, I’ve added some new pieces that I adore. They’re from Machete, Mejuri and Uncommon James – all brands I follow on Instagram. Here’s what to look for from each. Mejuri I picked up a necklace with a zodiac pendant from Mejuri…
