You guys, I did it! Gosh this post is so exciting to write because 10 months ago it seemed so far away! As you probably know if you are reading this, I started my journey with Invisalign last March with an amazing orthodontist here in Colorado, i-Orthodontics. I finished my treatment nine months later, in December, and wanted to give you all a little recap of how my treatment went and how you move forward after having Invisalign. How was my treatment: Honestly, amazing. Finally deciding to pull the trigger and get Invisalign after years of wanting it turned out […]
Invisalign Update
Wow, it’s crazy how fast 6 months can fly by! Last March I wrote my first post about starting my journey with Invisalign (find it here) and now I am already halfway through the treatment! Time flies when your having fun and achieving the smile of your dreams at the same time! How It’s Going: Honestly, amazing. The last 6 months were so fun seeing my smile change week by week and I didn’t have any problems with the retainers. They become so familiar that it almost feels strange not having them in? Some might disagree but for me it […]
May Favorites
May Favorites Isn’t May just the best month ever? We kind of had some rough weather here in CO but I still just love spring! I turned 24 earlier in the month, we took a trip down to Mexico, spent a lot of time outside on the pretty weather days, ran a 10K, etc. etc. But, in addition to May always being a great month, I had a TON of luck finding some new products (and resurfacing some old faves) this month that I wanted to share! So, without further adieu.. Supergoop Everyday Sunscreen Let’s kick this thing off with […]
I’m Getting Invisalign!
I am so excited to share that after years of wanting Invisalign, I am finally getting it! I am definitely going to keep you guys updated throughout the process with how it works and my progress, but today I wanted to share a little with you about why I chose to get Invisalign and where I’m getting my treatment done. The History of My Smile Growing up I was one of those lucky kids that never had to get braces. I had pretty straight teeth and no serious dental issues, so there wasn’t really a need. I totally took it […]
Float Therapy Experience
I wouldn’t consider myself a high-stress person, but everyone likes to unwind from time to time! When I need a break, I’ll go get my nails done or maybe even get a massage, but this weekend I experienced a new way to relax: float therapy. Vive Float Studio in Cherry Creek was nice enough to invite Hayden and I down to their studio to try out float therapy (though they offer many other rest and recovery services too) and we had a great time. I can’t even try to explain what float therapy is or all of its benefits, so […]
8 Inexpensive Ways to Transition Your Decor for Fall
It’s that time of year again people… hello FALL! The leaves are starting to turn, you’re breaking out your sweaters and booties, and there is a chill in the air (unless you’re in 90 degree Colorado, like me)! I LOVE fall and for the first time in my life I have an apartment with all of my own decor that I can adjust in anyway I want for the season. I officially switched up my decor about two weeks ago which may seem premature but I don’t even care! Today I’m going to show you guys some inexpensive swaps and […]
Madison Quinn Blog Turns One!
Its a blogiversary, y’all! Cred to Hayden for that one, but Madison Quinn Blog turns one year old today! Well, technically my first post went live on June 30th, but June 26th was the day I purchased MadisonQuinn.Blog and committed to one year of blogging. What a year it’s been! The Highs Blogging has easily been one of the best decisions I have made, for so many reasons. The first being that starting my blog was something I did entirely for myself. Of course I wanted to share my love for makeup and beauty with other women, but I really […]
APARTMENT TOUR: Living Room
The long awaited Apartment Tour post! Well, the living room at least. I had so much fun decorating this great room with the living room and kitchen (kitchen portion coming soon). You’ll see there is still some stuff that needs work, specifically the entertainment center, but otherwise this room is probably the most complete! I love decorating with black and white and wood, which just so happens to be the finishes on our apartment came with. I also LOVE this room because it gets so much natural light! Almost everything is linked below, if you have any other questions feel free […]
BBG Update
Wow! Four weeks of Kayla Itsines BBG program done! Half of you are thinking “cool, who cares” and the other half of you are thinking, “wow good job!” If you are anything like me, then you know this is a huge accomplishment! The program is 12 weeks so I’m only 1/3rd of the way through, but I still feel amazing and wanted to post an update! Some background: Growing up I never had to “work out” because I played so. many. sports. When I graduated from high school and my activity seriously decreased, I, of course, started putting on weight. […]
Thoughtful and Practical Valentines Gift | Jord Watches
Practical but thoughtful gifts are so much easier said than done. For me, Valentine’s Day is the hardest holiday to shop for because of this. This isn’t just another birthday where you can buy your significant other exactly what they asked for and move on. On Valentine’s Day your gift is supposed to be sweet and thoughtful and romantic. But what about practical? Fashionable? Something your significant other will actually like? Finding a balance is difficult but this year I found the perfect gift, a wood watch, thanks to JORD. Jord is a company that makes fashion forward, high quality, […]
