Twillys are a fun way to customize and dress up your bags. So I wanted to share 8 ways to tie an Hermes Twilly on your bag handles to give you some inspiration. It's up to you if you want to tie a twilly on one or both handles of your bags. In my personal opinion, I think you either wrap a twilly around each handle or none at all. Having a twilly on your bag handles will protect the leather. Therefore, you will get inconsistent wear on your handles if they're not on both. But if you're just looking to get one twilly to decorate your bag with many of these ways to tie an Hermes twilly work great as any accessory to your bag. If you're not concerned about wear on your bag handles, I highly recommend giving these a try! And the beauty about these is you can always switch them up! They're super easy to do, and don't take much time, so on ... Read more...
Fall Transition Outfit: Fall Ruffle Floral Romper
I can't believe how quickly the temps have dropped lately. It seems like fall is rapidly approaching us here in Santa Cruz. I purchased this ruffle floral romper a few weeks back knowing that summer was coming to an end soon. The floral print and color combo screams fall but rompers are typically a summer item. So, I figured I'd share how I'd style this piece to transition into fall. I'm all about these rust suede booties I got during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. They're fully back in stock and a total staple for fall. This ... Read more...
Girl’s Night Out Shopping Event at ThredUp
This past Thursday I hosted a Girl's Night Out shopping event at ThredUp at their Los Gatos location. If you're not aware ThredUp is one of the largest online consignment shops. They recently started opening up some brick and mortar locations in the Bay Area. These locations look nothing like what you'd expect a consignment shop to look like. They look like any other boutique and fit in nicely with the style of other Los Gatos boutiques. ThredUp so generously offered 30% discount to anyone who shopped the day of the event along ...

Inside Scoop on the new Countercontrol Line From Beautycounter
I know a number of you asked me to share with you all my favorite skincare products for sensitive, acne prone skin. Since I have sensitive skin and am prone to breakouts, I know the struggle! I knew I would have to find (and share) the best products that wouldn't irritate your skin but still give you the results you're after. The timing couldn't have been more perfect because my friend let me in on a little (big) beauty secret. Beautycounter, a skincare brand I love and trust, was coming out with a new skincare line to address these ... Read more...
Label for Less: NYFW Outfit Inspiration
Since I'm trying to figure out my NYFW outfits I decided what better way to share (and get your opinion on) some of the pieces I'm thinking of getting than with a look for less post. I don't know why this year I'm having such a hard time deciding on my looks. Maybe it's because I've got more outfits to plan for than last year or because I'm trying to stick with a tighter budget. Or maybe, it's because now that I'm another year into motherhood I'm starting to re-evaluate the statement pieces I would normally purchase. I'm trying to ... Read more...
Casual Outfit Inspiration From Pantone Fall 2018 Colors
Happy Tuesday friends! This casual outfit has been on repeat a lot lately, mainly because I am so in love with this color combination. I've been pulling inspiration from the Pantone Fall 2018 colors. I'm always up to wearing different color combos and for some reason I seem to really be gravitating towards mustard, green, dusty rose or lavender. My pants are dusty rose so not on the list of colors for 2018 but if you blend two of the colors from this year it kind of works. My mustard flats I got during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale ...
