I do not buy handbags on the regular. It’s more of an annual event that comes with much thought and consideration. And let me tell you something, when in doubt, always opt for black when it comes to luxury bags. I look for timeless vs trendy and for those $$, I need major ROI to justify each and every purchase.

I’m sharing my favorite black beauty today along with 15 must-have options at various price points. Happy shopping, babes! xo

The Express Spring Sale...a sale not to miss!
The Express Spring Sale...a sale not to miss!

Summer may be on our minds but I can promise you there are some deals you’ll never want to mess. Namely the Express sale as it’s a great outlet for basics. I’ve curated 21 must-have closet staples and while note all of them are ideal for summer temps, I can tell you that all of them are ideal for your wardrobe ranging from contour bodysuits to amazing, vegan leather dresses. There’s a nice mix of Spring blazers, jackets and denim, too. Every year I stock up on their bodysuits because they suck you in in all the right places. Grab these pieces while supplies last!

Happy shopping! xo

I’m not quite ready for resort wear so indulge me as I round up my favorite Revolve pieces for February. I’ve gotten several requests through my DMs on Instagram for Revolve over the last few months. I never knew I had so many closet Revolve shoppers.

Zara's Black Friday Sale
Zara's Black Friday Sale

I don’t go bananas on Black Friday. I kind of graze all weekend because let’s be honest, the sales last for quite some time despite the Cyber Week sense of urgency. With that said, there is one sale I never miss and that’s the Zara Black Friday sale. It’s my favorite. Zara is my quintessential stop for basics. I always get compliments on outerwear, denim and shoes. Always. And I keep those pieces forever. Affordable, minimal and contemporary. I don’t care if you’ve never shopped here before, this is the year to change that.

The best of holiday sequins.
The best of holiday sequins.

I strongly believe in the power of sequins. For everyday but also very much for holiday time. I am riding on the fumes of my annual Babesgiving party in which there is a very strict dress code. You must sparkle and shine and sequins are preferred. More to come on that but my girls always turn out. Always!

Everyday elevated looks.

Sharing the simplest fit for a weekday and the reason I’m doing it is to prove one point: monochromatic looks are so much more luxe and elevated and you don’t have to break the bank. It all came together very accidentally tbh.

The trouser to end all trousers

Hello! Even if you don’t wear the pants in your relationship, I can promise you with 100% certainty that the Princess Polly Archer Pant will go down as one of the best pair of trousers you have purchased in 2022. Don’t believe me? I have them in three colors. They are that good!

It's {Amazon} Prime Time, baby!
It's {Amazon} Prime Time, baby!

If you haven’t heard, TODAY is the last day of Amazon Prime Days! It’s been a whirlwind but I am studying and researching the best deals and most stylish pieces available. Tech and appliances aren’t my genius zone hence I am focusing on beauty, fashion, accessories and a smidge of travel. If you have any last minute requests, please do not hesitate to reach out!

Hi! Hi! We’ve kicked off summer with a bang. Kids are having so much fun at camp and we are relishing our weekends filled with farmer markets, BBQs, swimming and bike rides. I absolutely love our summer schedule. With that, I’ve had so many more reasons to dress up and attend events again hence you’ll notice my Amazon picks are skewing slightly dressier. I welcome it after the past two years and I know you feel me. With that said, here are my June picks…

What I Wore: The Mexico Edition
What I Wore: The Mexico Edition

We have so much to discuss and it’s almost been a month since we traveled for Spring Break. Barely squeaking in this post but better later than never, right? We really had a fun-filled vaca with our favorite neighborhood family. The kids had the trip of a lifetime and dare I say that the parents actually got to relax? Tis true.
