last week’s trip to dallas got my eyes looking on possibly maybe booking a trip to new york city again!? 🗽 my favorite place to get my creativity moving, and foster new ideas. something about the energy just really motivates me. also it’s almost shorts season, so it might be time to plan a little trip so i can eat and drink my way through the city again! #newyorknewyork

i've shared some of the progress of our home over the last few months, but we really owe a major round of applause to aaron who has made this entire house a true home. not to mention he keeps everything alive outside. if you’re thinking about selling your home, all you have to do is go to Opendoor.com, answer a few questions about your home, complete a contact-free video walk through, and you can get a real cash offer on your home. in just a few steps #OpendoorPartner #SellToOpendoor

thanks for all the bday love! 💗 we had so many errands to run yesterday, workers in the house, flower deliveries coming in 💐 quite the bday. thanks for all the wishes & for the desserts and flowers. kept it low key this year because there’s so many projects in the air right now + we went hard for my 30th last year. also there’s just nothing better than a house that smells like fresh flowers! 💗 #bday #bdayflowers

earlier this week, we explored the research and development labs @marykayus which was so much fun. we got a sneak peek of all the skincare launches coming this year & then we got to make our own custom foundation shade, which showed me how much patience is required when developing various formulations. then we have a beautiful lunch 🥙 after which we discussed all the new makeup launches for this year too. lots of good stuff coming! #marykaymakeup

yesterday we rode in pink Cadillacs to go explore Mary Kay Ash’s office in the #marykayhq before heading to the lab where all the goods are made! @marykayus #marykay #marykaylife the details are everything 💗

lucky me, i get to leave town for a few days while the home reno continues at home 🏡 for anyone new, we’re tiling our bedrooms with the same tile that’s in the rest of the house. carpet is really hard to clean with 2 cats constantly throwing up 🐈 + it bunches weird and a million other problems! we realized we should have done this before we moved in but hey, here we are a few years later and better late than never right!? they started with my office first, and it’s coming together so nice. more updates coming later this week! #homereno #homerenovation

when we got our home a few years ago, the market was not as difficult as it is today. cue in @opendoor which is an extremely easy, efficient, and reliable way to sell or buy your next home. with how difficult it is to snag a house right now, i know many of you who could use any additional assistance. they work to make the moving experience as painless as possible. so whether you're growing a family, getting married, wanting more space to work from home, or just moving to a new chapter in your life, they are an excellent option to sell your existing home and find your next one. truthfully i wish i had known about @opendoor during our home buying process, but now i can pass this gem off to all of you in the market. the best part is that you can sell on your own timeline without the hassle of staging, prep and showings. who doesn't want a traditionally tedious process to be easier and more efficient? you can thank me later! #OpendoorPartner #SellToOpendoor

day date with @ellencarolinedale yesterday (we’re so bad about actually taking pics together 🤣) went to @victoriassecret because it’s been a minute since i got new bras. and by a minute i mean years so figured it was time to peruse in person and see how padded i could go 🤪. anyone else guilty of not shopping for bras for a long time? lunch at @firebirdsgrill (delicious burger and salad if i do say so myself) 🍔🥗 then we stopped into @creativekindshop quickly and i only left with 2 things which is a miracle (they have some incredible local made soaps which smell AMAZING 💗) & of course we grabbed some @frostgelato 🍨 #girlsdayout #laencantadamall

relaxing weekend started off with dinner at @prooftucson (food was ok, vibe was the winner) 🥘 saturday i relaxed a bit in the midst of clearing out the 3 carpeted bedrooms, getting ready for the tiling in a week and a half. how many more beauty boxes can i make with the items in the beauty closet? 💗 i finished the love hypothesis (pretty good book but a lot of buildup which was sort of annoying!) & voilà here we are back to monday! #weekendrecap

it’s been freezing here, so throwing it back to new york in september for fashion week! and basically pretending it’s spring 🌸 if you ever need photos in the city, @pret.a.photo is your girl. she made me laugh so much. it was such a fun shoot and we got so many incredible captures that i never even shared! top @dynamiteclothing skirt @houseofharlow1960 @revolve shoes @express bag @prada photog @pret.a.photo which is your fave photo? 💗 #springootd

not a big hat person normally but this one was super cute paired with this jacket whatchya think? 🧢 or no?

who’s ready for monday!? you know i am. always excited to get a brand new week started. also had no idea today was a holiday, until i got a few newsletters this morning mentioning it. if you have today off, you can watch your fave shows or finish a book. chill. relax. since everyone else is off, i’m using today to catch up on email threads but don’t you worry, i’ll still be watching some shows and reading my books 🤓 happy monday! #mondaymood

a little vitamin d to pick up some @lebuzzcaffe this AM ☀️ skin is much less congested after the hydrafacial this week, so may have to make that more frequent. thinking every 2 months which is more doable than once a month. might share all my beauty appointments via blog post soon, since i noticed people ask me in the DMs what i do and it’s very sporadic (and i don’t really have a specific schedule for anything but nails!) currently for me: nails (manis/pedis every few weeks) facials (random) massage (4-5 times a year) therapy (currently once/week) liquid IV (new to the scene, currently every 2 months) hair (1-2 times a year) probably missing something what beauty and health appointments do you do?

a few things i’ve been testing, all hidden in my beauty drawer 💗 a few surprises: @caliray a newer brand (clean) created by the founder of urban decay cosmetics / so far this is a winner for me & in particular the skin tint and lip gloss @iliabeauty is always a favorite of mine and this serum foundation is for those with drier skin (which is me in the winter and occasionally in the summer when my skin gets dehydrated from the 🌵 heat) @elfcosmetics sponges are epic (i always remember my love for a good sponge after using a few brushes!) you can shop each item in the app @shop.ltk because i have tagged them all for you. i’m going to get better at tagging and giving you links, one step at a time 🥲 #newinbeauty

relaxing weekend over here reading a few books: 📚 no one will tell you this but me horror hotel the house in the cerulean sea + watching the super bowl 🏈 rooted for the rams, of course. in case you didn’t know i grew up in redondo beach, so LA all day 🏝 no sunday scaries over here, i love mondays! ready for the week ahead 💪🏼
