A Southern Girl's Guide To All Things Beautimous...
Finally. These are the words that I uttered when I decided it was time I high tail it to a Wanderlust Festival this year. After going back and forth between locations (California, Colorado, & Vermont) I decided it was time to get my pretty girl rocky mountain high on. I will be attending and covering [...]
I just got back from St. Maarten and I’m ready to hit the road again. This was the first trip in a long time where I was committed to some type of movement every day. I was definitely walking a lot, but I was able to sneak in small amounts of yoga here and there. [...]

Leather is great, but it can get heavy. I carry multiple technology items (iPad, Kindle, Macbook), camera, wallet, makeup bag, and [...]
It was bound to happen. Hotels have always relied on magazines for reviews, but an elusive partnership had yet come to fruition. Times have changed with the launch of ELLE Spa at the Eden Roc Renaissance in Miami Beach, Florida. Eden Roc Renaissance partnered with ELLE Magazine and it’s editors to create a lush spa [...]
It’s official summer according to the calendar and this Texas is looking forward to returning to visit the South this week, but praying for a return when I can head to La Torretta Lake Resort & Spa. La Torretta is located an hour outside of Houston and is a great getaway. The resort is kid [...]
A few years ago I did my girls trip to Playa del Carmen and I can still remember what a relaxing and great time I had. Now, I’m ready for another beach getaway to relax and renew. Sandos Caracol Eco Resort & Spa in Riviera Maya has recently made over 100 ocean view rooms eco-luxe. [...]
