Who is looking for book recommendations? If there is one thing I love more than looking in people’s makeup bags, it’s snooping through their book collections.

In my spare time, instead of Pinterest, I love to peruse the beauty section of NET-A-PORTER. Between the selection of beauty products being so carefully curated and the NET-A-PORTER site being a work of art in and of itself, it is hard to not enjoy passing the time scrolling and…
One of my favorite parts of wedding planning was styling and shooting my engagement photos with my photographer and friend, Kaytee Lauren. Aside from the usual selfie and occasional iPhone photo, this was the first time that my fiancé at the time (now husband, Kevin) could join in on the…
