Perfume// Black Dress// Puffer Vest// Window and Glass Spray Ballet Flats// Hand Soap   Lip Balm// Vase Red Gel Nail Polish// Sneakers// Jeans Another month has come and gone, and I added so many favorites to the list this month!  Perfume// This perfume is lovely. The notes are 'Calabrian bergamot, white butterfly jasmine, and sandalwood'. Bergamot and sandalwood are always two things I look for when it comes to fragrances, as I just love those notes. This is very light and refreshing. It doesn't last all day, though. You have to reapply after severa ..read more

Burgundy Boots// Bar Cabinet// Vest and Puffer Combo Jacket Scarf// Little Black Dress// Loafers Cap Toe Flats// Beauty Chest Some items of note...  - These Burgundy Boots are calling my name!  - This Vest and Puffer Combo Jacket is such a brilliant design. It's a two-in-one situation. There is a classic, simple puffer jacket and then a faux fur hooded vest that fits over the top of the jacket. You can wear them together or separately, so you get three different looks that work for three different temperatures. Also, this is a bold statement, but J. McLaugh ..read more

Pullover// Leggings// Crew Socks// Sneakers// Sunglasses Loving these sneakers. It feels like walking on a spring floor. The best walking shoes!  Last year, I got 5 gourds for this bowl, thinking that would be enough. This year, I clearly learned my lesson, ha!  Mug use code SYDNEY20 Towel Set// Robe The best treats from Weezie! This was a good, 'normal' week. We had a fun little dinner out on Tuesday. We just didn't feel like cooking and cleaning up, so we went to a casual restaurant. It was trivia night, which was fun! I've done some OTF, Pilates workouts, and other ..read more

Last year, my mom visited the McCauley and Dean offices here in Pittsburgh and got a microcurrent treatment. She was thrilled with the results. I loved her results. They were very subtle, and it looked like she had nothing done. Her cheeks just looked more lifted, and all around, she appeared more youthful. It was a very quick, easy, non-invasive treatment. Since then, I've been seeing microcurrent devices everywhere, and I've been intrigued.  I actually got my mom a NuFace mini from Dermstore for Mother's Day using my own code, SUMMERWIND, because she loved the in-offie results so m ..read more

Cutest custom pet pouch I rescued Henry in December 2017. It's crazy that nearly 7 years have passed since I met him and he became a part of the family! He is my best friend. He is so loving. I love him more than words.  I rescued him, so his age and breed were unknown. Here's the first video I ever saw of him! He is about 26 pounds and looks like an Australian Cattle Dog, though he is about half the size of a typical cattle dog. They're usually around 50 pounds. I did a dog DNA test a few years ago. Henry is an Australian cattle dog and chihuahua. HA! Such an odd combination, b ..read more

Cable Cardigan// Floral Platter// Yellow Velvet Ballet Flats// Benetint Beaded Clutch// Flower Earrings// Flower Bracelet// Wool Jacket Gel Builder// Lipstick Trio Set// Handbag Some items of note...  - I used to use  Benetint 10 years ago, and it fell off of my radar. My sister had it when we were in Charleston and it reignited my love for the product! It's such an easy-to-use lip and cheek stain and lasts forever both on my lips and cheeks. Also, one bottle will probably last you longer than you should even be using it!  - The yellow shade of these  ..read more

From a fun event, we went to last week!  Made a meat and cheese board for the Steelers game this weekend! I hope you are all having a great week! Wow, this week has sped by. Thursday really crept up on me! It wasn't a particularly exciting week, but it was nice nonetheless.  I cannot believe we are nearing September's end! It saddens me because I don't want this fall season to pass so quickly! We have a lot on the calendar for October, so I think it will fly by. I'm already seeing brand emails about the holidays, holiday decor, and gift sets launching. It's just wild!  T ..read more

a photo from 2017! One of my favorite things about autumn and fashion is the colors. They are usually saturated tones like chocolate brown, emerald green, burgundy, navy blue, and more. I love these colors. I've always been drawn to tones like this, even in home decor. I love that handsome Ralph Lauren vibe so much. It feels cozy and comfortable. So, I am all about embracing the jewel tones in fall fashion.  I'm often asked via DM if I have ever had my colors done. While it's a neat concept, I haven't, and I don't plan to. I think it's lovely for all who have had it done and enjoyed it ..read more

Black Dress (15% off with code SYDNEY15)// Patent Wedges Gold Earrings// Green Cashmere Wrap I had no plans this past weekend; it was the first weekend I had downtime in a long time. It was GLORIOUS. It gave me so much time to catch up on things that needed to be done around the house. I went to bed early and slept in. I turned on the TV! I was able to clean, organize, and do chores and tasks that I've had to put off. I've loved being so busy with a full social calendar, travels, and more, but I'm thrilled to have a few weeks at home without anything 'big' socially on the calendar ..read more

Classic and timeless, it reminds me of something my mom owned from the 90s.  - These Black Boots are STUNNING! Is it just me or are all of these brands absolutely killing it this fall season?! There is so much I love.  - In the last week, my skin has become so dry ..read more
