One of my favorite parts of celebrating holidays with Holden’s family is my stepmother-in-law’s signature cocktails. This year, she prepared a festive cranberry margarita for us.

Sunglasses c/o DIFF Eyewear. All opinions are my own.
I hope that everyone enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday yesterday! I spent a lovely afternoon with my in-laws and parents, but decided first to stop at the park with Holden for a quick outfit photoshoot. My wardrobe is typically monochromatic, so wearing all black for Black Friday was not too far a…
Gifts for Her // Fossil Q Hybrid Smartwatch
Thanks to Fossil for providing me this Q Tailor watch to review. All opinions are my own.
Truth be told; as much as I love watches– you probably haven’t seen me wear one very often. I’ll invest in a beautiful watch, but then forget to set it… resorting, instead, to my iPhone for time-telling. When wearable technology was first introduced, I was slow to adopt. As a techie, I…

I was introduced to Jamberry last year and have been a fan ever since. When they approached Diversity Chic for a collaboration, I was thrilled! I thought to myself how easy it would be to share the benefits of the nail wraps, how long they last, and maybe write a tutorial about…

My handsome Holden turns 30 today, and it seemed only fitting to feature him for this post in honor of his birthday. While in San Antonio, we ventured out to the Pearl Brewery area to enjoy drinks at Sternewirth bar and clubroom (located in Hotel Emma) and a delicious birthday dinner at…
