Westman Atelier Review: Best Products from the Clean Beauty Brand
I love trying new beauty brands, especially when they’ve received several accolades from industry experts, have rave reviews, and have such pretty packaging you want to keep everything on your counter.

AYR Jeans Review: Secret Sauce, Legend, The Pop & Voila Pant
I worked in the premium denim industry for several years at a few different brands, so I’d like to think I know a thing or two about good jeans. At one point, I probably owned over 60 pairs of jeans, but over time I’ve become more selective in my denim investments now that I don’t […]

The Home Alone Experience at The Plaza
The moment I discovered that you could book a Home Alone experience at The Plaza hotel, I added it to my bucket list. I watch Home Alone every year on Thanksgiving Day after dinner, and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York on Christmas Eve. It’s been a family tradition for as long as I […]
Fall French Capsule Wardrobe: Essentials for the Minimalist
As I’ve gotten older, I’ve very much enjoyed embracing more of a capsule wardrobe, and I’ve found that by purchasing high quality, elevated essentials, I’m able to get dressed easier, love what I wear, and rarely have a day when I feel like I have nothing in my closet thanks to what feels like endless […]
