As a full time teacher and blogger, I am one busy girl. I feel like I am always on the go. My weekly to-do lists are long ones, filled with a wide range of items to check off, from lesson planning to taking photos. Practicing self-care is one way I stay sane amidst my hectic schedule. Taking time for myself is essential when faced with everyday challenges and a stressful full schedule. One of my new favorite ways to pause, reset and take a moment for myself is with personal care brand, MOOD. MOOD, a…

Last year I snagged my first pair of Golden Goose sneakers after eyeing them for the longest time.

They are super comfortable and require 0 break in time, plus they can be styled so many different ways! While Golden Goose sneakers are worth the splurge, why wouldn’t you try and save on them when you can? Any time I’m on…

It’s that time of year again!! The Nordstrom Anniversary Catalog was officially released and that means the most wonderful time of year…aka the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is just around the corner!
