Practical Valentine's Gifts


While the sentiment of flowers are a thoughtful gesture, I'd much prefer something that lasts longer than 2 weeks. It doesn't have to be expensive. It can even be a gag gift but still something useful for everyday life.

January Happenings

February crept on us quickly but I'm not complaining. Since I can't seem to blog as consistently as I'd like, I wanted to round up all things that happened in January.

Celebrations
We hosted a NYE party so technically that was the beginning of January. It was a blast ringing in 2019 with champagne, fireworks, and friends.

Florida Living - Rain or Shine


It was a dreary weekend here in Central Florida with lots of rain. 

On Friday night we ordered pizza and attempted to watch Life of The Party with Melissa McCarthy however I fell dead asleep 15 minutes into the movie. This is what most Friday nights seem to look like recently.

Happy Friday!

Can you believe we're only a week away from the start of February? Selfishly, I'm almost happy January is coming to an end because it seems like I was sick for the whole month with one thing or another.

A Spontaneous Christmas in Vegas


We had zero plans to visit Las Vegas last year until the very last minute when my Aunt offered us her timeshare condo free of charge during Christmas week. So we looked at flights and the best price we could get was flying there on Christmas Day. So that happened!

Friday Fashion Files - Rogue & Vogue



My fashion posts are few and far between these days but I wanted to mix in some cute outfit ideas with L'Oréal's new Signature lip colors I received from Influenster.

Charming Charleston, SC


Well it only took me a month to get this post together as we traveled to Charleston exactly a month ago in December for a quick birthday getaway.

Birthday Brunch - Never Too Late to Celebrate


December is so busy, and while the girls tried to plan a birthday brunch for me then, K and I were heading to Charleston and then the holidays rang in so everyone was booked with family functions or traveling for the Holidays.

2018 Year Recap: September - December


The final recap of 2018. It was a fun year filled with lots of adventure, travel, and celebrations.

Ringing in 2019


We took a last minute trip to Vegas for Christmas and, I'm not going to lie, the time change returning home kicked my butt. My body clock was all off and I felt like I had a migraine for 3 days straight. Yet I stuck to the plan and hosted a NYE party for friends and neighbors.

2018 Year Recap: May - August


Hope everyone had a great Christmas on Tuesday. I shared Part 1 of my 2018 recap last week and so now I'm diving into May through August which, now looking back, were evidently heavy with travel and adventure.

Merry Christmas

2018 Year Recap: January - April


At the end of every year I love to recap and remember all the highlights and adventures that happened during the year. A life document and travel diary of sorts.

Christmas in the Caribbean


I meant to post this earlier this year when we actually spent Christmas in the Caribbean.

Still Weekending in Charleston


What a beautiful city Charleston is. K and I spent the past few days exploring the history, food, and bar scene.

My First Stitch Fix Review


I finally caved and signed up for Stitch Fix using a promo code sent by a friend. I received my first Stitch Fix box earlier this month and, while I liked some of the items, I definitely wasn't in love with most.

Birthday & Christmas Wishlist

It's that time of the year that I get to wish for all the things. I realize the trip to Charleston next weekend is actually my true birthday gift as K and I choose to travel for our birthdays to experience new places and create memories, which is priceless but still comes at a cost.

Random Life Lately


Blogging has been a little spotty for me recently as I've had very little to say. I have been busy studying for some Google business certifications that are useful for my job and starting a small business on the side, which I will share more details when it's finally launched.

Thanksgiving Long Weekend


I loved every minute of the 4-day weekend and managed to take zero photos of the Thanksgiving spread except for some desserts which my SIL's dog ended up getting into.
