I’m doing something that scares the heck out of me this month: NO SPEND NOVEMBER. This is where you don’t buy anything that you don’t NEED for one whole month. I got this idea from an Instagram friend, Patti, who has done this in the past. I made up a few “rules” for myself to make it a little more attainable, which […]
The Best Affordable Drugstore Makeup
Does anyone else wonder why some makeup is so expensive? Like what is in there… gold? magic? the secrets of the universe? Don’t get me wrong, I do love my $47 foundation and $25 mascara, but I really hate spending that much money on stuff that gets washed down the drain every night!

Ludington, Michigan
If you’re from Chicago, I’m sure you’ve been to some of the Michigan Beach towns along the shore of Lake Michigan before.

Whether it be in your home, your clothing, makeup, or everyday tasks, there is always some area where you can make a change. Big or little, any change can have an impact. Being eco-friendly can […]
Current Favorites: March
March is probably my favorite month because it’s when the weather finally starts to get warmer (occasionally), it’s daylight savings time, and it’s my birthday month! This March went by so fast and I’m honestly confused. I skipped a favorites post last month. I will probably be doing these more like every other month because it’s hard to keep up […]
