Alix’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Wish List

Tomorrow is the big day for most of us! Well 12am tonight the sale goes live, but I’m not setting my alarm for this sale by any means.

Happy Hour

I see a lot of insta people drinking matcha in the morning instead of coffee. Is coffee really that bad for you or matcha that much better? Matcha offers more of a “calm” energy and can be a great alternative for people who feel too jittery with regular coffee, but do want some caffeine. I usually have a matcha in the afternoon when I want a little pick me up, but nothing too … [Read more...]
