A Southern Girl's Guide To All Things Beautimous...
My yoga practice just got a new toy to hangout and play with. When I practice yoga at Tranquil Space I always like to use props. Many times people think using props are for wimps. Au contraire! Props work as an extension to your hands and feet. I didn’t have props for my home practice. [...]
This has been a busy week, but it has been so much fun. I was able to catch the preview of Scatter My Ashes at Bergdorf, get fitted for a beautiful Wacoal bra, and meet up with old friends at a style event. The weekend is full as well, but I’m thankful. I’m really a [...]
I’m back from a few days frolicking on the beach in Cancun for what I like to call my 2013 reset. I needed to get away so I could clear my head, work on me, and make preparations for some major items on my to-do list for the rest of the year. The weather was [...]

The past few months have been busy and crazy all at the same time. I keep saying that I am putting myself at the top of the list, but it seems to only happen for a few days and then I’m off the taking care of me bandwagon. This is changing especially since The Don [...]
Over the past few years I have gotten into using essential oils. I realized with all the traveling and life in general I needed some natural pick-me-ups and something to help me relax. It started with lavender. At the yoga studio where I practice in DC, Tranquil Space, the teachers spray lavender aromatherapy mist during [...]
I have never met a bath that I didn’t like. Baths can cure a multitude of issues in my opinion. I use baths to relax, but I also use the time to think things through. The experience of the bath is part of the deal. Yes, bathing is an experience. I need the candles, music, [...]
