Hey y'all! So one of my resolutions for this new year was to take care of my skin more. I'm getting older, and I know, early 20's isn't that old, but I want to start a routine now that I will carry on with me as I get older! Growing up, I've never had anything close to perfect skin. In middle school, my skin was pretty oily and I struggled pretty badly with acne. I still get the occasional spot, but thank goodness my skin has gotten better as I've gotten older. In order to aid with this process, I've also tried and altered my skincare routine over the past few years in order to find what's best for me. One thing I've learned over the years is that just because a certain routine is popular, or there's a hot new product out that everyone's raving about, doesn't always mean it's right for you and your skin tone. I've finally gotten to the place where I have a pretty good skincare routine that doesn't take a lot of time an...

Hey y'all! So, going off my New Year's resolution, I wanted to share with you all some of my tips and tricks for healthy habits that I've tried to start now that will hopefully stick with me in the future! I'm constantly trying to better myself and put more effort into all the things I do, I just always feel like I can do more and be better at what I'm doing. With our wedding coming up pretty quickly, I also wanted to go ahead and get in the habit of good routines that I can take with me when we move! Drink More Water  Y'all. I cannot stress how important this one is. I know that everyone knows this, I mean, it's been stressed at us since we were in elementary school, but I feel like I've always struggled with drinking the right amount of water. I love my coffee and my sweet tea as much as the next person, but a habit I've been trying to develop is to drink as much water as I drink tea or coffee in a day. I normally stop on my way to work and ...

Hey y'all! Sorry I ended up taking a much longer than expected hiatus from posting (pretty much the entire month of December, oops!). Between getting engaged, wedding planning, traveling, and Ian being home, it's been a crazy end of the year. I know I can't be the only one who's ready for a little bit of downtime and some time to get started on my New Year's resolutions! I actually meant to put this post up yesterday, but like I said, it's been crazy. Can you all believe it's actually 2018? I know I can't! 2017 was a great year for me honestly. I got my first professional job, graduated from college, Ian began his firstie year at West Point, and we got engaged! Just to name a few. The end of the year was full of trips to Nashville and New York, and lots of wedding planning. By the way, let me know if you all want to see some posts on wedding planning in 2018, I've had an absolute blast planning everything so far. As great as 2017 turned out, I...
