Happy Friday eve loves! Is it me or did this week just fly by?! Also how are we almost half way through January?! I can’t believe it! On top of it all Sawyer will be TWO at the end of the month and I can hardly believe it. Time really needs to slow down! I have been loving all the chilly weather we have been having lately. I wore this adorable snakeskin moto jacket this past weekend and it is just too good! I love that it adds the perfect amount of fun to any outfit. I paired it with a plain black turtleneck and a classic pair of mom jeans. To add a little bit of edge I threw on some black ankle booties. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! <3

Happy Wednesday babes! I hope you all are having an amazing week so far! We had a super chilly weekend this past week and I finally got to bring out some of my cute sweaters I have been dying to wear! This ombre pink sweater is so dang pretty! I love that it’s cropped ( I made it a little more cropped with the tuck under your bra trick), which makes it perfect paired with high waisted jeans. I wanted to give the sweater a bit of boho vibes so I threw on my high waisted flared jeans. I finished the look with a wool hat and sunnies. I hope you all have a great Wednesday! <3

Cozy Edge

Happy Monday babes! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend and holidays! I took the week off last week just to reset before the new year and after the craziness of the holidays. I feel refreshed and ready to conquer 2021! Let’s just hope this year is a lot better than 2020 ;p I am starting off the year with this cozy edgy look! I am obsessed with this oversized tweed coat! It looks perfect with my black mock turtle neck and distressed mom jeans. The tweed has a hint of silver threads in it so I threw on my metallic booties to tie it all together. I hope you all have a fabulous start to the first full week of 2021! <3

Merry Christmas Eve

Shannon Jenkins of Upbeat Soles styles a Christmas dress outfit with gold sequin long dress and lace up Vince Camuto heels

Merry Christmas Eve loves! How is tomorrow Christmas?! I still cannot believe how fast this year has flown by! Although I am SO excited to see Sawyer open all of his presents from Santa tomorrow! Christmas is so much more fun after you become parents! Normally we go to Christmas Eve mass today but unfortunately because of Covid we will be watching it at home. I feel like going to mass makes me really get into that Christmas mood so it will definitely be different this year! Although we still want to dress up in our Christmas best! I actually wore this gorgeous gold sequin maxi dress to my brother in law’s wedding 2 weeks ago and I am so in love! It would be perfect to wear for Christmas too and maybe I will get to wear it again next year! I hope you all have a wonderful and Merry Christmas! <3

DIY Holiday Gift Basket

Thank you Neutrogena for sponsoring this post, all opinions are my own

Happy Thursday loves! Can you believe that Christmas is almost here!? When thinking of gift ideas for loved ones during the holiday season one thing I always turn to is a cute gift basket! Today I am putting together a gift basket for my best friend, but this would be great for a sister or even your mom too! Seriously this is such a fun and easy idea! It also adds a personal touch. I love scanning through the store for fun things to throw in the basket! What I usually do to make shopping a little bit easier is start with a theme. With 2020 being a tough year for most I wanted to make the theme a self-care gift basket. I picked up some fuzzy socks, bath bomb, jade roller, scrunchies, face masks, adorable mug, and lastly some great skincare items from Neutrogena at Walmart!

I’ve heard nothing but great things from their Bright Boost line so I grabbed the Bright Boost Gel Cream and Bright Boost Illumination Serum. The Gel Gream has Neoglucosamine in it which helps visibly reduces dullness and dark spots for smooth skin. It also improves look of tone, texture, and fine lines. The Illumination Serum has turmeric extract in it so it helps with dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Plus it is dermatologist-tested and clinically proven to hydrate and nourish your skin!

I can’t wait for her to try them out! What are some of your favorite items to add to a holiday gift basket? I hope you all have a great week ahead! <3

Mustard & Flares

Shannon Jenkins of Upbeat Soles styles a boho winter outfit with mustard off the shoulder sweater, Abercrombie flare jeans, and Sancia bag

Happy Monday loves! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and long weekend! I also hope you scored some awesome deals with all the crazy sales going on! A lot of them are still going on for cyber Monday today so be sure to check out my sales post! If you’ve been around awhile you know my love for mustard, especially during the cooler months, so when I saw this adorable off the shoulder mustard sweater I knew I had to have it! I love that the shoulders are mesh so it looks off the shoulder but has to comfort of a normal top! Seriously genius since I swear I am always getting annoyed with off the shoulder tops either popping back up or falling too low. I paired it with some highwaisted denim flares and threw on a brown hat to give this look a boho feel. I hope you all have a wonderful start to you week! <3

Shannon Jenkins of Upbeat Soles does a Neutrogena Make up remover wipes review and talks about how it removes dirt and oil and cleans

Happy Wednesday loves! So I wanted to talk to you about a product that has been a total life saver for me during these hot Florida days (yep, it’s still hot here) and that’s the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes! Being a busy mom and running around with a toddler can get a little sweaty, especially when you have super oily skin like I do. Also the Florida humidity doesn’t help!

But what I love about the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes is they not only remove your makeup they also remove dirt, oil and bacteria! So it is like washing your face on the go without water! I use the fragrance-free versions because my skin is a little sensitive. These are gentle on my face but tough enough to wipe away all that other gunk.

During the week I usually just put a little eye makeup on so after I go to Sawyer’s swim classes with him and then play at the park later in the day I just take these out of my bag and give me face a quick wipe and my face feels so refreshed and clean! The best part, I don’t mess up my eye makeup like I would have if I washed my face in the sink! Then at the end of the day before jumping in the shower they also quickly remove all my eye makeup in a few swipes! Seriously a game changer! They are available at your local Walmart or you can add them to your next online pickup or delivery order! I hope you all have a fabulous week! <3
