As you may know, I’m heading back to China for my 10-year anniversary of winning 🏅.  I can’t believe 10 years have almost passed. It still feels like yesterday (although my body doesn’t feel the same). This time around, I wanted to see the sites I never got to see in 2008: the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Summer … Read More

Summer is quickly approaching…T-13 days, to be exact! Every year, right around this time, I get this urge (no doubt due to the countless headlines I scroll through every day) to “get summer ready.” It’s like, for some reason, health, wellness, and self-care suddenly become mainstream and top of everyone’s mind. And, although I try to keep all of these … Read More

This summer, I’m stocking up on all things woven.  Whether it’s shoes, hats, or bags, (do they make woven bikinis yet?), I find myself adding more and more of these items into my shopping cart.  Woven is definitely the new black. It goes with everything and instantly elevates your outfit. Although it may just be a trend, I definitely think … Read More

It’s finally time to show off … Read More

With summer quickly approaching, I’m stocking up on all my essentials. Whether it be an after-sun facemask, a LWD (little white dress), or a good book, my summer shopping list always consists of these 12 items.  Summer is a time where plans are unpredictable and going with the flow is more my speed. Having these items on hand makes it … Read More

If you’re anything like me, you have about 5,752 things in multiple online shopping carts at one time. It’s almost as good as real shopping, but, like, never receiving the items is definitely a drawback of this little game I like to play.

But, if you are in the market to actually hit “submit” at online checkout, here is some … Read More

If you haven’t put on a bathing suit this year yet, you’re getting really close to doing so. I can feel it. The weather is warming up, and soon we’ll be hitting the beach like it’s going out of style (which it will, in approximately 100 days). So, to make the most out of our allotted beach days, I’ve pulled … Read More
