In preparation for “helping” out with the Bid Day festivities, I rented a 35mm (1.4) lens from borrowlenses.com to capture some great photos from the day for the girls. It was super easy to order it online and pick it up from a local store, and despite using it for the first time [...]
I’m the worst at hair. And by “at hair,” I simply mean doing anything with it that someone would consider a style. I only learned to frenchbraid my hair out of necessity (basketball/softball in the ‘90’s required it), and I was never one of the girls that liked to play with other girl’s hair. And [...]

To illustrate how crazy I am… I’m lusting after
these cords right now. Maybe it’s just the price ($19.99), but I’m [...]
I’m off eating apricots and retreating for the day in the hills. I hope you get to enjoy your Veteran’s Day as well!
So I went ahead and did it… I made my first Gilt purchase last week. I have a wedding to attend next week, and when I saw this Cynthia Rowley dress… I knew it was perfect. I’ve long been a fan of the cut-out-shoulder look since Julia Roberts sported it [...]
Some days, my work takes me on a walk past the rose gardens at the state capitol. Sometimes I’m walking briskly since I left a minute too late for my meeting/appointment, and other times I get to take my time and find a few blooms to sniff.
