Currently crushing on Stella & Bow jewelry, especially the rings and earrings. Their lovely LA-based team sent over some of my top picks from their current and up-coming fall/winter collections, and I'm hooked. Each piece is the perfect mix of edgy and dainty!
Oh, the long, complicated relationship we have with our hair. Since I was little, I wanted nothing more than straight, frizz-free tresses. It wasn’t until recently that I began to appreciate my hair and embrace its waviness. The more I reflect on it, the more I realize just how much my hair means to me. It's offered me protection when I’ve felt like hiding, given my confidence and mood a boost, especially after a fresh cut or color, and served as an accessory of sorts that completes all of my looks. Through thick and thin thinning, no matter the color, the style, or the insane knots, my hair has always been there for me. And, it’s with all this in mind that I have come to truly love it. For these reasons and more, I’m in support of Dove Hair and their mission to broaden the definition of what we deem beautiful hair, so that it includes and celebrates all hair types, textures, and colors. Make sure to check out Dove Hair’s inspiring film and their Pinterest to learn more about how they're empowering women to embrace and love their hair regardless of their hair(story).

'Tis the season for holiday parties, so whether you're looking to make a siren statement or keep it subtle, yet cool, let these two looks with my top beauty picks from Dolce & Gabbana be the inspiration for your next party...
For a high-impact look, pair a classic bright red lip with a matching clutch and nail polish. Add some dimension by contouring your face with bronzing powder, then apply a metallic gold eyeshadow for the final festive touch.
If you want something more low-key, but equally stylish, keep it simple by highlighting your face with a shimmery illuminator for a pretty glow. Try a textured white clutch, silver watch, and chic ring to keep with the cool, understated feel.
Complete both looks with an edgy pearl choker and a quick spritz of Light Blue fragrance before you head out the door. This fresh scent is always uplifting, plus it's a guaranteed conversation starter since I always get asked what I'm wearing when I have it on.

I've gotten some requests recently to share my beauty routine, so even though this is a bit out of my comfort zone, I figured why not have a little fun (hello, kissy face!), and give you guys the run-down. I've always been pretty low-key and try to get my makeup done in about 15 minutes. Here's what I currently use for my daily go-to beauty look...
BLUSH/BRONZER/HIGHLIGHTER: For some definition, I use either the Urban Decay Naked Flushed Bronzer, Highlighter & Blush Palette in Streak or BareMinerals All-Over Face Color in Warmth. I blend the bronzer with any brush I have handy along my cheekbones, hairline and lightly on my nose and chin. If I'm in the mood for a little color I add some of the blush from the palette over the apples of my cheeks. For highlighting, I'm obsessed with Chantecaille Liquid Lumière Illuminator in Sheen. I dab a little along the top of my cheeks, the inner corner of my eyes and under my brow arch for a flattering and subtle glow.
EYES: To begin, I lightly dab one of the bronzers mentioned earlier to my lids for a little depth. Next, I tightline my eyes with simple black eyeliner. I like to use the Almay Contour Crayon Eyeliner since it doesn't smudge as much as a pencil. If I want to add some flair and have some extra time, I like to do a winged cat-eye look with Cover Girl Intensify Me! Liquid Liner. To complete my eyes, I go straight for my Shiseido Eyelash Curler and throw on a few coats of Cover Girl Lash Blast Fusion Mascara in Very Black.
Finally found the perfect chunky sweater from Zady, so I can't wait for it to get chilly again in LA this week. I plan on wearing the navy knit with vintage Levi's jeans, a nude Vince bag, and my new Common Projects sneakers. This may just end up being my Thanksgiving look!
One of the best fabrics for spring and summer dressing is hands down white linen—It’s a light, crisp weave that’s incredibly chic. For that reason, I’ve got my eyes on this sleeveless organic linen wrap top from the EILEEN FISHER collection at Saks Fifth Avenue. Go for a relaxed look with a pair of classic jeans and flat sandals, or dress it up with skinny black pants or culottes and mule heels. Best part is, this piece will keep you feeling comfortable and cool as the temperature starts to rise. Shop this top, plus more picks below.
There’s no denying that once the weather starts to warm up, we can’t wait to throw on a dress. This spring and summer it’s all about styling the piece, as feminine as it may be, with sporty pieces like sneakers and furry pool slides. Two of our favorite dresses of the moment for pulling off the trend are this striped knit maxi dress and this floral print maxi dress from the K/Lab collection at Kohl’s.

When it comes to achieving a minimal aesthetic EILEEN FISHER has always been my go-to, which is why I was more than excited to style one of their exclusive new pieces for Saks Fifth Avenue. This white open-front silk crepe jacket is subtly textured, lightweight, and incredibly versatile, making it the perfect companion for any spring outfit. Wear with neutrals as shown here or cool black minimal pieces. Shop the jacket plus my other top picks below to elevate your closet this season.

This holiday season, break out of that little black dress rut for something that makes more of a statement. Enter the brocade and embroidery trend (one of my favorites at the moment), which is guaranteed to lend a festive touch to any outfit. With that in mind, here is my take on the perfect holiday party dress look, with my top picks from Nordstrom.
