Easter Weekend in Napa

USA
Napa Valley. Sunshine. Wine Country. Friendship & Celebration. Every part of our glorious weekend in California seemed to be picture perfect. From sipping bubbly on the patio of Domaine Carneros with scenes of rolling hills & budding vines to exploring the gardens of Frog’s Leap, our weekend was filled with glamorous views. My friend Liz and I had been talking about a couples trip to Napa for quite some time before finally booking flights last October and deciding to make it...

Spring Shoe Crush

Collages•OUTFITS
  I’ve never been The Shoe Girl. My sister Lili has always held that title in our family. I swear she came out of the womb in heels but who knows. I’m the one with the love for dresses! But lately, I’ve been finding a plethora of fun shoes this spring season. One of the challenges I have found through my fashion blog interests is how often I’m exposed to NEW things happening RIGHT NOW that I’ve somehow put in...

Banana Nut Muffins

RECIPES
My bestie Liz sent me this Tasty recipe a couple of weeks ago and I can’t stop making these delicious banana nut muffins. Tasty dictates recipes through video. If you’re a visual learner, this one’s for you. I changed only a couple of things, but either if you follow my directions or watch the video, this recipe is DELICIOUS! Enjoy!   Ingredients: 2 large ripe bananas 3/4 cup almond butter 2 eggs 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 tsp cinnamon 3 tbs honey 1...

South by Southwest with M&D

*
Fun weekends always go by way too fast, don’t they? Over the last 10 days, Austin had its annual South by Southwest convention that showcases emerging technology, film, and live music. My parents came to visit the second weekend and we spent our time listening to live music and taking Austin by storm. What’s fun about being a local is that its easier to navigate the free events at SXSW and find cool things to see and do. Last year we discovered...

Avocado Sauce

RECIPES
My coworker Chrissy told me about this amazing Avocado Sauce for pasta and I had to try it for myself. I feel like Avocados are so IN right now. Don’t you love that we have food trends?! I’m all about it! I love using avocados in recipes. They’re packed with nutrients and natural fats and taste delicious! So when I found out you can create a gluten free, egg free, soy free, dairy free (basically everything free except Goodness) Avocado Sauce…well, I...

Weekend in NYC

USA
Eric and I returned yesterday evening from a quick weekend in New York City. I flew in Friday afternoon and met E at the airport where we shared a Lyft ride to our hotel. We stayed at the NoMad hotel between Union Square and Chelsea and I thought this was the perfect location for all the exploring we did. The NoMad hotel also happened to have a super trendy bar inside called the Library and that’s where Eric and...

Just MOVE! pt 2

HEALTHY LIVING
I have always been a proponent of keeping your body in motion to stay fit and healthy. And with Austin’s picture perfect spring, I find there is rarely an excuse these days for me not to be exercising. I wrote  6 ways to healthier you a couple of months ago and my siblings read it and pooled their cash and bought me a Fitbit for my birthday! I LOVE IT. It keeps me counting. Keeps me accountable. Keeps me wanting to do more....
