I've been living in Alexandria VA for nearly 20 years - first near Old Town Alexandria, and now in Alexandria (Fairfax county). This is a great area, and a great place to visit if you're coming to Washington DC to visit. My favorite things/places and hidden gems (aside from all the well known, popular tourist spots)!
I hosted an Italian themed pizza party for my 30th Birthday! It was a mix between Amalfi coast & Roman themes. Here is a full list of the supplies/ decor I bought!
These are the things I use as often as possible to create the perfect cozy night. Most of these items I've used to make my reading corner my own. I enjoy making my area as cozy and happy as possible. I'm sure this list will continue to grow.
Juneteeth is approaching and if you are looking for some things to do in either Northern or Southern Nevada than this list will be for you. This is a very small list which is a bit of a bummer but I can only hope that in continuous years there will be more events being held to celebrate this very special holiday. Anyways, some of these events are happening on different days so please make sure to look at the date before getting your tickets. Also there are some events that cater to the whole family while others prefer to only have adults so please take that into consideration as well. This is a perfect opportunity to learn about Juneteenth and celebrate the victories that came from it. Happy Juneteenth guys !
I'm fully on the lace trend right now and have put together my favorite picks including this timeless fabric. These are all pieces I'd personally wear, are in my cart, or in my dream closet <3
Stuffing a regular pillow into your pack is like trying to fit a watermelon in a lunch bag. If you've ever strapped one to the outside of your backpack or just skipped it entirely and woke up with a concrete neck, this list is for people who actually want to sleep well outdoors without sacrificing half their pack space. Took me way too many stiff-necked mornings on the trail to figure this out.
My routine for acne prone, oily, hyperpigmented skin!
I spent years as a young teenager researching what each mineral, vitamin, and acid does to the skin and carefully chose the best routine for my skin. I even went as far as looking into pH levels and how to balance pH.
This routine has dramatically cleared up my skin and is the same basic routine I've used for 5+ years!
Visiting Walt Disney World with a toddler can feel overwhelming — this list highlights the rides that are age-appropriate, gentle, and worth prioritizing. Great for avoiding long waits on attractions your little one might not enjoy.
What girl doesn’t love a relatively cheap everything shower. I have thick hair and only wash it once a week so hopefully this helps other girls with the same life style.
I know how hard it can be to buy for our children sometimes. I mean to find things they actually love can be so hit and miss. Here are my recommendations for things my 6 year old son is currently loving. Hopefully this will help you when it comes to buying something for a 6 year old.
As a person who hosts parties, I know what a lovely surprise a good host gift can be. I named this list "don't come empty handed" because that's what my mom always told me about going to parties. She would always bring a bag of oranges as a gift to hosts. There's no oranges on this list, but there are lots of great options for various types of parties.

Traversing the country, I created this list about the places that were, historical, inspiring, amazing, or loads of fun. These are not the big names that everyone writes about, but rather unique or off -the-beaten-path places that offered us a new perspective or appreciation for our country and its people.
Omaha has been my home for 10+ years - although I've been a Nebraska native my entire life. Often times people think that Nebraska doesn't offer anything but dirt roads and horses. I'm here to tell you that there's actually some gems here and you're missing out if you don't come visit at least once.
Every morning used to be the same fight — standing in front of the mirror trying on three necklaces, hating all of them, running late. Turns out the problem wasn't my wardrobe, it was that I was mixing metals randomly and wearing silver when my skin tone was screaming for gold. If you've ever felt like your outfits look almost right but never quite finished, gold tone was the missing piece. Took me two years of jewelry drawer chaos to figure this out so you don't have to.

I sorted this list the way I actually choose a moisturizer: light gel-creams first, then milky textures, then rich creams. I reach for a gel-cream under makeup, a milk when a heavy cream feels like too much, and a rich cream on barrier-stressed or winter-dry days, so you can match the texture to your skin and your routine.
My two boys Apollo the flame haired ragdoll and Inspector Meowso love to share their favorite things 🥰 so I figured if they enjoy these so much so maybe your kitty would also enjoy 🤗
