I am partnering with Fenton in Cary over the next few months to highlight some of their stores and upcoming events! To kick off the partnership, I stopped into Altar’d State to try on some of their spring pieces and I couldn’t believe how cute everything was. The store is huge and it’s organized by trends (boho, bridal, activewear, etc) which made it super easy to locate certain styles.
A few of my favorite pieces that I tried on included the first Patchwork Maxi dress (not available yet but I will link it once it is!), this Lia Floral Eyelet Dress and this Sinead Crochet Tank Top.

My TikTok feed is filled with videos raving about the popular peel-off lip stains so I had to try it! I LOVE a little color on my lips and I usually achieve that with a tinted lip balm but a lip stain sounds so much easier. This viral peel-off lip stain is supposed to be used as a lip liner but you can apply it to your entire lip for just a touch of color that will last ALL day. Here is the lip stain I am using in the tutorial below in color MUAH-ve but all the ones I linked are raved about.
My honest thoughts? Well worth it! I ate and drank throughout the day and the color still looked great ..read more

I have been raving about gua sha facial massage for years and it was about time I released a tutorial on how I use a gua sha facial massage tool. For those who aren’t aware of gua sha, it is a traditional Eastern and Southeast Asian healing technique in which a tool is used on the body (usually the face) to release facial and muscular tension and promote lymphatic drainage.
Effects of gua sha facial massage:
help relieve tension in the face
reduce puffiness and inflammation
promoting circulation
tone and sculpt the face
helps soften fine lines and wrinkles
How often should I gua sha?

Every few months I’ll be sharing our most used and highly recommended items – starting with the newborn phase, 0-3 months. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again – you do not need as much as you think you do. A lot of the things I registered for I haven’t used – like pacifiers,, muslin cloths, diaper cream – the list goes on!
Here are the items I would recommend and register for and I’ll share why for each. Please keep in mind that every baby is different and what my baby likes, your baby may not like, and vis versa.

I am sharing both what I am packing in my hospital bag for my labor *next week* and a list of items that you all recommended I pack over on Instagram. You all have been so helpful during the pregnancy and I appreciate all of your advice!
I have been told that you don’t need much when it comes to your hospital bag. Thankfully, the hospital provides a lot of items for you and you can even take any extra items in your hospital room home with you so, bring an extra bag! I have no idea what my labor will look like so I have no clue how long I will be there but I assume 2-3 days. Once I give birth ..read more

We had the best freaking weekend celebrating our babygirl at our budget-friendly DIY baby shower in Boston! I wanted to recap the event and share with you some things we did incase you’re hosting or having one soon. I did not want my baby shower to be just another boring baby shower watching the Mom open gifts. I wanted it to be a celebration of motherhood and loved that our friends and family were able to mingle and enjoy themselves without any awkwardness.

I asked you guys over on Instagram Stories last week for ANY and ALL advice when it comes to motherhood. As I’ve been researching different products to figure out what items I have to have, I’ve learned a lot of tips myself that helped me prepare for what’s to come and make decisions on what items I need to purchase. Not to mention, you guys delivered! Keep reading and get ready to take some mental notes!
IMPORTANT ADVICE THAT I HAVE LEARNED
Don’t invest in a specific bottle or pacifier just yet. Figure out what kind your baby likes first. This pacifier box and this bottle box feature several ..read more

I cannot believe I am typing these words but… we are pregnant! I wanted to share some photos from our pregnancy announcement photoshoot with Cailyn Whitman as I am obsessed with them. The last few months have been a whirlwind as I adjust to being pregnant and growing a tiny little human – ah! We are so blessed and grateful and I cannot wait to share all things pregnancy with you (among other things).
Since I found out the news back in June, I have pinning up all things baby and pregnancy on Pinterest on a secret board. I really couldn’t find any creative and cute pregnancy announcements that t ..read more

Even though Ryan and I eloped in November, I still wanted to celebrate this huge milestone with the ones I love most. I have been dreaming of having my bachelorette party in Palm Springs for years so, I did it! I invited my closest girlfriends out for an extra-long weekend and we had the time of our lives. Keep reading for a recap, including what I packed, and things I would recommend if you’re headed that way. I found a lot of useful information about what to do in Palm Springs in blog posts, especially those dedicated to planning bachelorette parties.
I would say this trip was a little more ..read more

Before I start sharing all things renovations with you guys, I want to share more about our experience with buying a beach house in Oak Island, NC. I lived in Raleigh for a few years before I even realized Oak Island existed and I wish I had known about this little slice of heaven sooner. Thankfully, my husband is real-estate obsessed and could tell Oak Island was gaining popularity as a beach town escape from city living folks, like those in Raleigh.
If you’ve noticed, I’ve started creating a lot of content on Instagram and TikTok documenting our renovation. It’s different than my usual style ..read more
