City Chic Crop Top

Hello Lovelies,

As I planned to head to a cute brunch spot in the heart of Old Town Cottonwood, Arizona last weekend. I knew I wanted to wear my super cute new crop top from Tobi.

This crop top is so cute! I love the asymmetrical front and back style. I wanted to find a pant that would best compliment the unique shape of the top.

These high waisted linen pants are my new favorite! I love the front bow and the ruffle detail at the waist. SO super darling right?!?

I grabbed my go to Jennifer Janesko gold bar threaders to add a little bling to my outfit and a simple black clutch.

High Waisted Pant: Balia Boutique

There so many funny images of me in the middle of the road. I’m sure the residents of Cottonwood thought I was crazy lol. My favorite brunch spot is up the road with tons of gluten free options is The Red Rooster Cafe. Oh and the best part $5 mimosas!

Grecian Inspired Maxi

Hello Loves!

I recently went back to Cottonwood, AZ to visit. It is such a pretty area and just the cutest town. I have to admit that when I received my beautiful maxi dress I could totally picture in my head how I wanted to shoot it. This gorgeous dress is from Tobi

This gorgeous area is a walking trail at the end of Main Street that winds around all the way to the other side of town. Its actually called the Jail Trail. The parking lot at the trail head is where the old jail was located.

This was such a beautiful area, but as my luck would have it there had been a horrible wind storm the day before and a huge tree had been uprooted blocking the path. We had to climb through the trunk space and all sorts of woodland creature were scurrying around. Yes a whole lot of screeching from my fellow city blogger and me, but not from my tough chick Cottonwood friend lol.

And yes I hiked down the trail in these!! Actually so cozy and sturdy haha! My new favorite open toed bootie!

I love this small town. It was so much exploring that day. I was so happy hanging out and showing off the cutest spots. I would love to go back with a bigger group of bloggers and do a big fun styled shoot! Anyone interested?!?

Blue Tobi Jumpsuit

Hi Loves!

So I recently was invited to a brunch hosted by Shane Co. at the gorgeous resort, The Royal Palms. It was the most perfect day. This is still my favorite resort in town. It has a more boutique feel, yet very tropical too. I immediately knew I wanted to wear my new blue jumpsuit from Tobi

This dark blue jumpsuit is super chic. I love the more tapered leg and the zipper detail at the bottom. I really love the ease of movement and the overall construction of the fabric. This is actually my third Tobi jumpsuit. I love how they fit me so much!

I styled very modern simple jewelry with this jumpsuit. This long gold tassel choker necklace has been sitting around waiting for the perfect outfit lol. I also paired my new favorite Jennifer Janesko earrings. They have a sleek modern bar feel to them.

Jumpsuit: Tobi

Necklace: old; Similar

Earrings: Jennifer Janesko –on sale!!

Heels: old; Nordstrom

Clutch: old; Similar-Kate Spade

This was such a fun day getting to meet up with other local bloggers, trying on gorgeous jewelry from Shane Co., eating the most delicious brunch food and strutting around the beautiful grounds of the Royal Palms taking photos! Hope your weekend plans are amazing!

Hask Blueberry Greek Yogurt Hair Care

Hi Loves!

I am so super happy to tell you all about this new hair care collection. I was chosen to try Hask’s newest line and I’m in love! See all that HASK has to offer here.

The new Greek Yogurt Collection comes in three types depending on your hair’s needs. First, is the Fig and Honey for much needed hydration. Then there is the Pomegranate and Cherry for color protection, and the one I chose is the Blueberry and Aćai for overall repair (which lord knows I so need).

The blueberries are full of antioxidants, which helps restore your dry and damaged hair. The Aćai berry contains essential vitamins to prevent breakage. I don’t typically style my hair every day for work to give it a break, but I still get split ends so fast.

The craziest thing about these tubes is that is has two sides or chambers. The one half is the greek yogurt, which helps add moisture. So when you squeeze the shampoo tube, the fruit side ( the other side) and the yogurt side both come out and get mixed together when you lather your hair!! So cool and futuristic huh?!?

The conditioner is for daily use. Leave it on for about 2 min, for my hair like 10 min lol. Oh and I almost forgot the smell is like a blueberry pie, so good.

The deep conditioner works better for my coarse hair type as a daily conditioner. No one else would need to use this more than maybe once a week though. And as with all Hask products, these are free of sulfates, parabens, phthalates, gluten (something I look for being Celiac) & drying alcohol (crazy huh that products add this when they are supposed to be helping to add moisture).

So have I peaked your interest or at least made you hungry haha!?! You can find the new Hask Greek Yogurt Collection exclusively at Walgreens for now SHOP HERE.

LBD with a twist

Hi!

I wanted to tell you about the cutest black dress that I found recently. The dress has a classic cut and feel, but the best part– it has a fun surprise. I love a black dress for work or a nice dinner and this dress has a fun pleated peek-a-boo detail which is just so unexpected.

The pleated detail is bordered by a fine line of colorful jewels which add a bit more of a pop. This dress runs a bit large though. I ordered a size 6 according to the website measurements, but I feel that the size 4 would have still been loose. I think this is a dress that the alterations lady can easily tuck in the sides so it fits more smoothly and not so wide.

The dress bodice has a higher neck line with a slight crew neck cut. I can totally wear this to work and not worry about moving around in it. I added a pretty lace-up red trench coat for the rain that was falling that day, but also just because it looked cute!

Dress: StyleWe

Trench: old-Anthropologie; Similar

Booties: Sold out: Similar

Work Bag: Zara

Necklace: Nordstrom

I actually love a good rainstorm. I wish it rained more here in Phoenix. It was 95 degrees today and I AM NOT READY FOT SUMMER (yes it needed to be in caps haha). I had so much fun twirling in this dress for this shoot. Shoot me your questions/comments down below!

Jord Chrono Wood Watch

Hi Loves!

I am back with a new post with Jord Wood Watches . They contacted me to share that they had designed a new series, the Conway. This series is actually a men’s series for the company, but I just loved the dark sandalwood color and could totally picture incorporating it into my wardrobe!

I really love the darker wood on this style. I found that I could wear the watch with a pair of ripped denim or style it with a cute dress.

Smile Brilliant

Hi Loves

I recently was approached about trying out an at home teeth white service. This company called Smile Brilliant has devised a system to make your own custom fitted whitening trays literally from the comfort of your own home! The idea is to take a before photo and then compare it to a later photo to see how much brighter and whiter your smile will be!!

First, you should begin by taking a photo of your smile. So, the next photo is a super close up of my smile. Sorry for that ha ha. There is no way to look cute, so here it is.

Before

The company sends you the kit with what you would need to mix up the putty for your molding trays. Also included is the paid envelope to send your finished trays back for processing. So first you mix the “white putty” and the “blue putty” together (base & catalyst). You need to mix these two really well until you don’t see any “white” and mix quickly so it doesn’t harden before its ready to be placed into your mold trays!

It was super easy to make the molds with the picture directions provided. Also, Smile Brilliant has videos that you can watch to see how to prepare your mold trays. I found this video super helpful. The link is HERE

The turn around time was super quick too. I got my whitening trays back and ready to use within a few days. I was super excited to get these back. As a blogger I am critical of my photos that I post. Since, I have a history of drinking red wine and black tea, I feel my teeth get yellow often. I have tried whitening toothpastes and strips, but I haven’t been happy with those results.

The whitening gel is best applied to the front of your teeth molds. Apply a good amount, but not overly generous otherwise it will ooze over the top and sides too much.

The directions with photos make it all super easy to use. I feel the best part is that Smile Brilliant offers you desensitizing gel for your to apply after using your whitening gel. I have sensitive teeth and more so in the last few years (left over from when I used to grind them during my master’s program…sigh). This was a huge help because about 60% of people at one point or another have sensitive teeth. I did not experience any problems with my sensitivity! Score!

BEFORE

AFTER

That is it! Super simple. Its so much less expensive and time consuming than going to the dentist. I was super happy to to be chosen for this product review. I find this so much easier than getting your mold fittings, then waiting, then going back to the dentist office to purchase gel from them only, etc. If you still have any questions or find that you want to know a bit more, please read the article: 7 Things to Know Before Buying Teeth Whitening.

Hapari FIT Activewear

Hi There!!

I am so excited to tell you about this latest collaboration. Hapari reached out to me about featuring and trying out their activewear line. I was pretty flattered! They started off as a swimwear company and have moved more into including activewear.

Ok so those that know me well are aware that I am not a gym girl. Now this doesn’t mean I’m sedentary, quite the opposite. In 2004 I had a thyroidectomy after gaining over 30 lbs and being pretty sick. I was super skinny for my height before that so many did not realize that I was sick at all. I used to do 5 dance classes a week (ballet, flamenco, belly dance and contemporary). Nowadays, I do my kind of working out–not super structured. But it works for me.

I love to walk with my dogs. Try to most days! Cleo is always in a hurry to get somewhere (not sure where she is pulling to get to lol). She is about 6 months old now and has a ton of energy. The other 2 have no choice but to keep up!

I usually swim most days when my pool warms up too. But when its cooler out I love to ride my bike. I have a cute beach cruiser, yes with a basket on the front, that I ride for a good hour. Here in Phoenix, I try to ride as often as I can before it gets too warm. I’ve actually had my bike tires get worn out/ruined from the pavement being too stinking hot!! The jackets I ordered in size small also. I am crazy about the little thumb holes. Yes something that little makes me happy!

I truly loved these Hapari FIT pieces. They are so well made. Hapari prides itself in fitting a woman’s body very well and their activewear is no different.The wide waistband on the pants is so nice to help hide my extra pouchiness haha.

I really loved the way the sports bra fit and the higher neckline too. This is a size small. The pants are a size medium–I’m more “hippy” than the average girl of my height and weight.

The solid black tank is very lightweight and super soft. I ordered the size small. Really loved this tank! The quality of this active is so well made.

For me whatever I do I have to have music. With my dance background I love all types of music. Sometimes my “workout” is just dancing in my living room. So no one can critique my pathetic jete instead of a grand jete lol!

I am trying to get back into actual classes, but life keeps getting in the way. I love nothing more than being on stage. I so miss it. No matter what you do keep moving. I am not in the league of the bloggers who are real fitness bloggers by any means, but if you can get a group of girlfriends together and just go out dancing its a great start. You burn a lot of calories and in heels! It’s an excellent workout. So to my friends at the Galantine’s party– in 2 weeks, Friday, we need to organize this for sure (you know who you are)!

The best news is that everything at Hapari related to activewear is on major sale right now! The links above are for all the pieces that I received. Also don’t forget to check out Core water. I love the taste of their purified water, but best news is that they have just introduced 5 calorie flavored waters!! SO delicious and yet low calorie. No artificial sugars used to sweeten these waters.

Jord Wood Watches

Hello Lovelies!

I am back featuring this beautiful watch. I had not seen a wood watch before being contacted by Jord Wood Watches and was intrigued. I picked out a royal blue faced watch with a zebra print on the wood to style.

I started wearing this watch even before having a chance to officially shoot it! I got so many questions and compliments with this gorgeous on my wrist.

I found the more I wore this watch the more outfits I can find to style with it. I love that I can make it part of my work day outfits with a pretty floral blouse like above.

This watch looked great styled for a casual day at a famers market with a rustic knit sweater. I’m obsessed with this watch!

This fun colorful sweater pairs perfectly with the wood watch too. I really am obsessed with this watch, it seems to be really easy to coordinate the watch.

This watch is super versatile! The wood band is an excellent choice for people with metal allergies too.
