More than anything else on my blog, I get asked about my hair. What products I use, how I style it, my cut, my color, everything! In the last several months I have discovered two products that are absolutely key in getting soft, shiny hair that I am so excited to share! Some people say their hair styles best when its dirty and has a little grit, but I am the opposite. My hair always styles the best when it is clean and soft! The Dream Combo: The last time I got my hair done, my hairdresser introduced me to […]

Dreamy Weekend in Beaver Creek
How has it been two weeks since we got engaged?! It still feels like it was yesterday and we are still living on cloud nine- but time sure does fly! You can check out the story of how Hayden proposed here, but this post is about the amazing weekend we had after the proposal! Friday On Friday Hayden made me get up early and get on the road to Vail. We got up there by 10:30 and by 11 we were engaged! First thing we did was head to the hotel to get checked in.

We’re Engaged!
HOW IT HAPPENED: For about four years now, Hayden and I have had the tradition of heading to Vail for our anniversary and enjoying a relaxing weekend together – this year was no different. We decided to head up on Friday morning and leave Sunday morning so that we would have two full days in the mountains. About a month before our weekend getaway, Hayden suggested that he make plans for us on Friday, and I make plans for us on Saturday. That sounded good enough to me! The night before we left we went to my parents house for […]
Everything About HAIR
Getting your hair done is always so exciting and fun but it’s super important to know how to communicate exactly what you’re wanting with your hairdresser ! Here are my tips for doing so, so that you can leave the salon loving your new hair! 1.

Point out specifics in the picture of what you like (“I like the tone of her blonde highlights, I […]

Argan oil is new to my beauty routine and I have a feeling my obsession is only beginning. After a few uses and a lot of research, I can’t get enough of this stuff!

Argan Oil for Skin: Argan oil is high in Vitamin E which nourishes and protects your skin, as well as fatty acids which hydrates. Using this can make […]
Four Fall Jackets Every Girl Needs
I am a full blown jacket hoarder. It’s the first section I gravitate towards when I’m shopping and definitely the largest part of my closet. Here is a breakdown of four jackets every girl needs for fall: 1) Denim In my opinion, a denim jacket is the perfect way to transition to fall fashion. I especially love this one because the built in hoodie underneath makes it that much warmer and more practical for fall. This goes with everything and is great for everyday, casual wear! Linked here! 2) Leather (or faux, like mine) Another staple every girl should have […]
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 […]
