The baroque trend this fall has me wrapped around its finger. I love the luxurious fabrics, ornate details, and textures that the baroque movement brings to the fashion world. I picked up this top at Forever 21 a couple of years ago, and it remains a constant favorite in my wardrobe. Quite honestly, I picked it up because it screamed Versace to me! Baroque pieces can be perfectly paired with other rich textures and colors, which is what I did here during a recent wine tasting trip in Napa (and the Greystone made for the perfect backdrop for these photos!). 

Ladies, I also scored this pleated faux-leather skirt at Target for just $12 two weeks ago! It’s not on their website now, but check your local store – it might be on the sale rack! Go baroque this season and render every day a grand exhibition!

living in your core values is where the magic happ living in your core values is where the magic happens ✨

When how you live matches your values, life is usually joyful. When your existence doesn’t align, that’s a sign that you are living in your acquired values.

freedom
fitness

swapping out my black accessories for other colors makes me so happy & lovvve these sunglasses as one of my first replacements (Spring seasons look best in warmer/lighter/brighter colors vs black). 
I just posted a video on YouTube detailing my entire experience getting my color analysis done & shared a little haul 🛍️ more deets in my color analysis highlight ✨

if you can’t go more than a day without washing if you can’t go more than a day without washing your hair (like me), let me introduce you to this 2-in-1 shampoo/conditioner combo that is truly so nourishing 🪄🧴 
@hairstorystudio NEW WASH was developed because most shampoos weaken the hair and strip out vital oils since most rely on detergent. New Wash is a cleanser but doesn’t contain any detergent & has a proprietary blend of essential oils & saturated cleansers. 
My hair is never greasy after using it and my dry AF scalp loves it! I’ve been using it for a couple of months now and I’m truly impressed by how nourishing it is for both my hair + scalp. ✨

I love trying new products and these are some ✨new✨faves of mine I have to share with you:

@saintjanebeauty lip oil: love a high-shine gloss and this is ITTT. It’s actually called a lip oil which did scare me before trying it, but really just feels like a gloss. It’s not greasy at all. the sparkly pink is my fave 💖 

@herbivorebotanicals moon fruit: calling all pregnant/breastfeeding mamas! this product is a retinol-alternative serum that's clinically-proven to treat signs of aging with 1% bakuchiol + plant peptides. I started using it a few months ago and really love it. I do miss retinol (still breastfeeding) but this is a gentler option. 

Burdock oil: I had no idea about this oil until I researched ingredients for the best scalp treatment and this is one of the ingredients I use in my DIY scalp treatment. However I’ve also been using it on my face to double cleanse because it is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. 

@lysbeautyofficial blush: this is the color humble and it’s the prettiest orangey pink which is fab for summer. I’m a cream blush convert because it’s so much more natural looking than powders. & this one is matte, so it won’t look greasy ✨
Your most beautiful life is meant to bring out you Your most beautiful life is meant to bring out your core values. 
I’ve always had a vision for my most beautiful life. But with anything, it needed some refinement (as with everything in life).
Since I have become deeply entrenched in coaching, I have been able to identify my core (vs acquired) values to be able to design my day/life. 🌸 
Some questions to ask yourself to do the same:

I’m your dream day, what are you wearing? 
What values are you living by?
What does your environment look and feel like?
Where do you live?
What activities bring you energy?
A gooddddd mint chip smoothie had been on my mind A gooddddd mint chip smoothie had been on my mind lately and I’d never actually had one, mainly because they’re usually made with banana….and I cannot stand bananas. SO. Knowing that mango can easily replace bananas when it comes to cooking, I picked up a bag of frozen mangos and went to town on crafting my own recipe. 

It legit tastes like mint chocolate chip ice cream 🍦

recipe:
🧊 ice
🥭 frozen mango
🥥 coconut cream
🥬 spinach 
🍁 maple syrup
🍬 peppermint extract 
🥜 almond butter
🥣 oats
🍫 Chocolate chips (I also add these in to the smoothie in addition to on top)
