I used to always decorate with photos I have taken or of me with people. Don't get me wrong I still have photos up from travels through Europe but lately I have been loving and wanting to put art work on my walls. I found these two prints from Desenio that I am obsessed with!
Since moving into our apartment last fall I haven't done much with the walls in the bedroom. I wanted to add in some modern minimal styled art pieces to pull it all together. I gravitate towards neutral colors for everything, from clothes or decor. I knew I wanted to stay in that color family so I searched their easy website by typing in neutrals first. The ones I chose were Abstract Lines and Shapes and the other print is Beige Art Poster. I decided to put them both into white frames so a sleeker look!

Women have more days where they don't wash their hair than when they do. Having longer thick curly hair I have always only washed my hair 1-2 times a week. Trust me it's a process haha, then after 2 days of clean hair I usually just wear my hair in a bun until its washed again. A recent study showed that 71% of women cannot keep great hair days in between washes, can you relate? I am so excited to have found the new Pantene Waterless Collection. It has helped me style my hair as if it was right after a fresh wash. Now we all can officially #BanTheBun!

When banning my bun I start by using the Pantene Never Tell Dry Shampoo Spray. It's filled with Pro-Vitamin B5 and wild mint, it's also paraben-free and sulfate-free ! The mint gives your hair a fresh start with tapioca that absorbs excess oil as you apply to your scalp and roots. I apply it all over my scalp and rub it in with my fingers then proceed to brush through the rest of my hair. I then move onto using the Pantene Mist Behaving Dry Conditioner Mist! I've never used a dry conditioner before but now I'm obsessed. The conditioner mist helps with detangling, frizzy hair and controlling fly aways. To use, you simply spray at the ends of your hair and brush out. This product is also paraben and sulfate free. Plus, it's made with Pro-Vitamin B5, Omega-9, aloe and jojoba oil, leaving your hair nourished for a full 24 hours!
Lastly, I want to talk about the Pantene Curl Affair Curl Reshaping cream. If your hair is curly that tends to frizz easily, this product is perfect for you. Trust me a little bit goes along way. This is pumped with anti-frizz hydration that works to block humidity, keeps your curls smooth all day and defines curls with no crunch. Another nice thing is you can use this product multiple days in a row between washing! I twist or scrunch it into my dry hair for a more polished look, you can even use this to apply to damp/wet hair!
Pick up the new Pantene Waterless Collection now at Walmart!

I always enjoy trying a new cocktail! I wanted to share a fun new recipe that I have been enjoying lately. Thought this drink could be perfect for the Galentines / Valentines weekend ahead!
APHRODITE'S JUJU
+ 4oz Universal Spirit Vodka
+ 1 tsp coriander seeds
+ 1 tsp dried spearmint
+ 1 tsp dried orange peel
+ 1 tbsp dried rose petals
+ 4 oz water
Add The Universal Spirit and all dried herbs into a airtight jar with lid and store in a dark cool place for a week. (I tried this for 48 hours and still tasted great.) After a week dilute a drop of your mixture with a drop of water, if the taste is to your liking, proceed to strain. If not, reseal and continue to steep and continue to taste daily.
Once to your liking, strain the mixture through a small colander lined with cheesecloth, or a clean tea towel into a clean container. Press on the soaked herbs to extract as much liquid as possible. Dilute the liquid with equal parts water and transfer to dropper bottle. To use the mixture, place 5 to 10 drops into 8 oz of water, tea, or any drink of your choice! Enjoy!
Aside from the drink shared above, this book has over 100 cool recipes inside. They even have a special drink for each zodiac sign, which I personally love!

Fall is one of my absolute favorite times of year. The holidays are right around the corner plus with the trees changing colors, the smell of firewood and just the overall excitement of the season put me in the mood to celebrate! It’s always fun to craft up some seasonal drinks while entertaining or simply having a stay-at-home date night with your significant other. I’ve put together two cocktails using Coopers’ Craft Bourbon that are perfect for fall!
They really nail the mix of smoky and sweet for a balanced taste. It has hints of spice and notes of baked apple that pair well with all things autumn. Josh happens to be way more of a bourbon drinker than me, but Coopers’ Craft quickly has become one of my go-to liquors to stir up! We are hosting Thanksgiving at our place this year and these two drinks are for sure what I’ll be making.

Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, 41.1-50% ABV, Brown-Forman Beverages, Louisville, KY
Bourbon Champagne
+ 1 part Coopers’ Craft 82.2 Bourbon
+ 1 part Champagne
+ 1/2 cup sugar
+ 1/2 cup water
+ Berries
First, you will melt the water and sugar together over medium heat, stirring until clear, not cloudy. Once the simple syrup is cooled down, it’s time to make your cocktail! Fill half your glass with Champagne, add a shot of Coopers’ Craft 82.2 Bourbon, and a shot of simple syrup. (You can add more to your liking.) Stir together and garnish with frozen berries.
Bourbon & Berries
+ 1 part Coopers’ Craft 82.2 Bourbon
+ Simple Syrup
+ Club Soda
+ 1 lemon
+ Berries
Instead of ice I chose to use frozen berries for this drink! Add the frozen berries into each glass. Fill up the glass half-way with club soda or seltzer water. Add a shot of Coopers’ Craft 82.2 Bourbon and a tablespoon of simple syrup. Cut the lemon in half, squeeze one half equally into glasses. Garnish with lemon slice and enjoy!
I hope you loved these drinks as much as I did! You can also check out the website for Coopers’ Craft and get even more drink ideas to make! If your family and friends are anything like mine, these recipes are certain to be a hit with whomever you spend the holidays with!
Cheers!

Each year I get a little older and a little wiser and taking care of my skin has become a part of my daily practice. One part of my routine is to make sure is my skin is always moisturized to keep it feeling young and healthy! Another is to make sure I always have SPF on before going outside. With so many products out nowadays, it can be hard to know which is the right one to use.
Fortunately, I found Olay Red Jar offers both. It’s actually the Olay Regenerist line and comes in Micro Sculpting Cream or my favorite, Regenerist Whip Moisturizer. Make no mistake though, both of them are part of my skincare routine. They both moisturize my skin and restore its elasticity while keeping my skin looking youthful! That’s because the products in the red jar line are packed with Amino-Peptide Complex II to smooth and brighten the skin’s appearance while reducing fine lines and wrinkles at the same time!
I rinse my face with water in the morning, followed by toner, and then I apply my Olay Whip, whether I wear make-up that day or not. When I do put on makeup, though, I’ve found the Olay Whip is great underneath. It goes on smooth, matte and shine-free not super thick like most moisturizers. Actually, it reminds me of a primer. Makes it simple to layer makeup on top without it looking uneven in the slightest!
Micro-Sculpting Cream is amazing as a night cream. I find that it absorbs well, and my skin is left feeling hydrated, but not oily. I can definitely tell a difference when I don't use this cream. The best part is that it doesn't break out my sensitive skin! It also has a nice, light scent.
The Olay Whip doesn’t feel quite as heavy to me as the Micro-Sculpting Cream. For that reason, I think Olay Whip is probably better to use in the summer and Micro-Sculpting Cream better during the winter. After just 4 weeks of using Olay Red Jar daily, it really transforms your skin and reduce the look of wrinkles! I’d definitely recommend making the Olay Regenerist products in the Red Jar part of your daily skin routine too!
P.S. the Olay Whip is available with SPF for additional sun protection too!!

I admit I have been awful with posting onto my blog the last few month, when my dog Shoeshine got sick and passed away it was a very hard time for me and I stopped putting effort into certain things. I know that shouldn't be an excuse but I needed time to myself and I still cry about it. ANYWAYS this year I'm feeling very thankful for my health, relationships and opportunities. Sometimes it can be easy to get down on yourself when your pushing towards a goal and don't hit it at the exact time you want. I need to remind myself to stay more present (enjoy the journey) and think of how far I've actually come. Especially with building my blog. Ive received some amazing opportunities this past year that at one point thought would never happen and looked up to the other ladies who have gotten those brands to work to with. I hope all of your count your blessings and have the best Thanksgiving holiday! Christmas is my all time favorite time of year so you bet your ass the day after Thanksgiving all the decorations will be out and the Christmas music will be playing! What are some of your plans for the Holiday this week?!
