Amazon Deals for Health & Home

It's been a struggle to get in more than 1 or 2 blog posts a week recently. I can't even blame it on the holidays. As a Prime member, I do love to find good deals on Amazon especially for repeat purchases.

Always Celebrate

The highlight of the weekend was celebrating JQ's birthday on Sunday and getting to catch up with friends.

Martinis & Bikinis 6th Anniversary

I can't believe it's been 6 years since I started Martinis & Bikinis to talk about my life and share things I love. Never did I imagine meeting all of you amazing gals along the way.

Forgetful Me

I should probably be ashamed of some of the foolish/forgetful things I've done and/or continue to do. I will chock some of it up to being human but I often joke about having the memory of an 80+ year old and you'll probably think the same after reading this post.

Friendsgiving and Giving Thanks

The weekend was a great one. Lots of self care and pampering, a little online shopping/browsing for holiday gifts, and a fun Friendsgiving dinner to cap off the weekend.

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!

Fall Corn Maze Adventures

Super fun Saturday with friends and their kiddos getting lost in a corn maze. It only took me 34 years to finally experience this fun Fall tradition, and we had a blast navigating through the maze mostly with little Max leading the way.

Home Decor: Modern Style with Functional Design

If you travel quite a bit, you've probably noticed the growing trend with hotels incorporating USB charging plugs into lamps or outlets on the wall. This is the direction modern decor is taking to accommodate for technology and having to charge your phone on-the-go.

Life Lately + Giveaway

Since the weekend was pretty uneventful (which I'm not complaining about), I thought I'd check in with a life lately update.

Party Supplies from the Dollar Store

I love party planning, often on a tight budget. If there's one thing I love about the Dollar Store is that they have a great selection of party supplies for every occasion.

Elephants For Strength: Gift Guide

I recently read an article about ancient lore and the symbolism of different animals. It said that the elephant came to Earth to teach us about true strength and loyalty. They are extremely strong animals but gentle nature, never using their power to harm others.

Solving Personal Hair Care Struggles + Giveaway

I was contacted by Formulate, a new personal care brand, to test their customized shampoo and conditioner formulas that are created by their chemists specifically for your hair type and needs. The company's concept is very unique and a new-to-me experience. I was all onboard since my hair is not as easy to maintain as it may look.

Friday Faves

Happy Friday everyone!

My work life has been crazy for the last two months coordinating a huge conference happening next week. Considering our corporate is in Australia, the time difference has sometimes consumed my nights to coordinate with the team over there, instead of blogging which I only find time to do at night or weekends.

Recent Amazon Purchases: Baby Girl Gifts

It just so happens most of the babies born in my circle of friends/family this year have been girls so there's lots of pink in this post from baby showers to first birthday parties.

Twin Pumpkins Turn 1

The weekend was relaxing and productive which is always much needed between all of our travel adventures and busy work schedules but the highlight was celebrating my favorite twinsies 1st birthday yesterday.

September Happenings

A new week and a new month start today. I welcome October but it feels like September flew by in a blink of the eye. Looking back at everything that happened the last few weeks, it's evident time truly flies when you're having fun.

This weekend was a quiet one so I'm sharing all the things that happened in September including some tidbits from the weekend.

Nashville Work Trip

With all the busy weekends the past few weeks, I made sure I was feeling rested before making my way over to Nashville last week Monday for a work training conference. The days were packed starting with breakfast at 8 am, back-to-back courses throughout the day until about 5 pm, then ending with happy hours, dinner and networking.

Wedding Weekend Fun

The past few weekends have all been filled with different celebrations - bridal showers, birthday parties, travel adventures, baby showers - and this weekend was no exception.

Fall Fashion Accesories

Tomorrow is the official start of Fall and, while it stills feels like summer weather in Florida, I'm already planning all the cute fashion accessories in preparation for the crisp air finally making it's way south.
