Changes

Similar sweater dress | Cape | Similar boots | Necklace | Similar sunglasses

What a week it has been! Let’s catch up, shall we?

First, let’s chat about the obvious: yes, I am now a brunette and I LOVE IT. More on that on Friday. 

As obvious in the last photo here, I AM ENGAGED! Jeff proposed to me at midnight on Christmas Eve/Christmas and it was just perfect. I am on cloud 9 and can’t wait to start sharing wedding ideas here. 

Another big change in my life over the last month has been that I have transitioned away from eating vegan. I’ll be honest – I feel guilty and ashamed because I went vegan purely for ethical reasons. However…my body was really not happy with me from the beginning until the end. I will spare you the details, but I now know that I thrive on a moderate protein and high fat lifestyle. When I ate strictly paleo for over a year, I felt and looked my absolute best. I still do not consume any dairy products, and I shop for cruelty free cosmetics and clothing. Now to work on my guilt of not eating vegan. If anyone has any advice, or if you’ve done this before, please share your experience with me! I will be sharing an updated health and fitness routine soon as well!

Ok, let’s lighten things up a bit. How fabulous is this cape?! As a part of my wardrobe & style overhaul, I have been gravitating towards slick and chic pieces and this cape fits that description perfectly. I love layering it over plain-Jane outfits and dresses to really spice things up. 

How was your holiday weekend? Any news?

xoxo, Lynn

past several days re-energizing with the things that light me up - HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you are in a funkโ€ฆ

Skincare is a โ€œlittleโ€ - okay, maybe not so li Skincare is a โ€œlittleโ€ - okay, maybe not so little luxury that I am so passionate about. Here is my current routine using effective & clean products to nourish & protect your skin โœจ

1. Toner: I use a toner instead of washing my face in the AM as washing can be harsh (I only wash at night). This rose toner gently rinses away anything lingering on my face.

2. Vitamin C serum: omggg you guys, this is so good. You know SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic?! This product has the SAME ingredients and is $20 vs. $182. A HG

3. Hyaluronic Acid: A must for my dry skin without making me greasy.

4. Sunblock: 100% organic physical sunblock - wears beautifully under makeup

+ donโ€™t forget your neck!

Hereโ€™s what I did: 1. I stopped waiting for per Hereโ€™s what I did:

1. I stopped waiting for permission - and I got comfortable choosing myself by banishing limiting beliefs. 

2. Got crystal clear on my two sets of values and began to understand what I needed to shed and what I needed to focus on for fulfillment. Some of my core values are: fun, integrity, humor, and creativity. ๐Ÿ’“

2. Stepped into my authenticity and created new habits and patterns that have become automatic. 

And side note: this is ALWAYS a work in progress. In this season of life, I am so happy to say that I have created a life that feels aligned. One of the biggest motivators for me is my daughter and being able to dedicate much of my time to her and do things not only on the weekends (and not on a job I wasnโ€™t passionate about etc).

โœจYou can do this work too, and I am ao excited to be offering a FREE 8-week group coaching program, BE ALIGNED, where you will uncover your core vs. acquired values, understand them, receive coaching, and step in to your purpose and passion(s) in your life.
