This is a list of some amazing products that I have tried over the years and still used to this day! I do my best to use cleaner products on my skin. I used to struggle with hormonal acne and these products have helped heal my skin and keep me looking healthy!
Living in a cramped apartment with one window and beige walls was slowly draining my will to decorate. I spent months scrolling for decor that would open up my space without a renovation — turns out mirrors, lighting tricks, and a few smart pieces did what knocking down a wall couldn't. If your room feels like a closet and you're tired of staring at blank walls, save yourself the months of trial and error I went through.
I was born and raised in Wisconsin, then moved to Minnesota about 5 years ago. If you know anything about those states you know it’s COLD. These are some of my favorite items for keeping warm, without sacrificing style.

I love a good, creative, cute, inexpensive handbag. I love certain designer bags too, but I like to mix it up. Not every outfit it occasion calls for a high end purse. And who has the budget for all that?
When I travel, I seek out gardens and spend hours in the best ones. These are my favorites around the world. Leave me your favorites in the comments so I know where to head next. Enjoying nature is a fabulous break during traveling, as good as any art museum and a great way to enjoy any weather.
Planning a Swan Valley trip from Perth and drowning in options? Every winery website looks the same, every food spot claims to be the best, and you end up just driving around wasting half the day. I burned two full weekends figuring out what's actually worth stopping for so you can nail it in one visit.
I eat a lot of Asian food- but I do like other types as well. I've lived in Springfield for a few years now and here are my favorites I've found… so far!
Growing up in Appalachia comes with wonderful (and not so wonderful) memories! But you should certainly visit us, and check out some of my favorite things back home!
Staring at the ceiling at 2am doing math about how many hours of sleep you'll get if you fall asleep RIGHT NOW. Yeah, I lived there for years. Tried melatonin, white noise machines, sleep apps, even that weird banana tea thing. Turns out understanding WHY my brain wouldn't shut off was the missing piece. These books changed how I sleep, and I wish I'd read them three exhausted years ago.
All the canvases I want for my new hobby. So many are out of stock, trying to keep track of everything here. Love all of these and hope to add them to my collection some day!
