Do you have any favorite undergarments from the NSale? I need some comfy new bras! Yes!! This bralette is SO comfy and I also sometimes just wear it around with leggings or shorts for comfort because it looks like a sports bra. But I also wear it under all my tees and it doesn’t show any lines. Also love the spaghetti strap version. I’m going wine tasting in August (think HOT) and need some … [Read more...]
How to Increase Your Own GLP 1

High Fiber + Protein // 5 Day Meal Plan

The idea of consuming 30 DIFFERENT plants per week may seem unrealistic, but with a little awareness and planning it’s very achievable. The American Gut study revealed that people who eat at least 30 different plant-based foods a week had more diverse gut microbes than people who ate less than 10. … [Read more...]

If you had to pack one pair of sneakers for walking all day in Europe, what pair would it be? I have to name two pairs, sorry. These are the ones I wore last summer in Italy and have zero complaints. They’re currently on the Anniversary sale, which I believe they’ll go quickly because of how versatile and comfortable they are. My second pair is these because they’re not only comfortable and … [Read more...]
My Summer Sun Protection Must-Haves
Heather and I both have a started to take our skincare very seriously the past few years. The #1 thing we have learned is to stay out of the sun!

Nothing ages you more than the sun, so wearing … [Read more...]
