I grew up in the era of TLC and Aaliyah, so crop tops and baggy jeans were pretty much my (and my generation’s) standard uniform. Plus, in high school I worked at Merry-Go-Round and Dr. Denim, two stores that catered to the TLC/Aaliyah crowd, so most of my wardrobe was sourced from there, and other […] Read More »

The One Thing I Wear (On My Face) Everyday
I get a lot of compliments about having great skin, but the truth is I treat my skin (on my face) pretty poorly! I commit pretty much all the skin sins we’re told to avoid: touching my face, picking acne scars, wearing makeup while I work out, going to bed with makeup on. Yikes! Yes, […] Read More »

Beauty Review: Marc Jacobs Air Blush
Everyone has been so obsessed with highlighters that blushes have taken a back seat! I love a good glow on my cheeks, but a rosy flush is sometimes nice, too. When it comes to blush, I always prefer either a warm, peachy/coral color, or a cool, pale pink, which both look nice on my skin […] Read More »

Last Days of Summer
Happy Monday! I can’t believe it’s mid-August already – pretty much the ‘last days of summer’! The season is quickly coming to a end, much to my chagrin.

Style & Substance: 3 Ways I Give Back to My Community
