Hi Bellas,

It's finally Fall.  Temperatures are cooling down and I thought it'd be a great time to try out the best affordable jeans.  I picked up a bunch of styles from very accessible stores including Target, Old Navy, Ross and Wal-Mart.  Overall I was really pleased with the quality and price, check out my favs!


Hi Bellas,

It's been a long time since I've done a favorites video.  I've been doing better curtailing my shopping but there are some things I buy time and time again or that I really can't live without.  Of course I had to feature my favorite store - Amazon.  I'm obsessed with 2 day free shipping and returns.  It makes my life so much easier and you can really buy anything.  Today's favorites features fitness, health, baby, beauty and household - a little bit of everything.  Check it out!



Hi Bellas,

Have any of you all been so tempted by those social media sponsored ads?  Well I caved and decided to try some outfits from www.PatPat.com because I just couldn't resist the adorable matching family outfits.  Bella Hubby and I filmed a haul and I was definitely surprised by the quality and fit.  Check out the video on my YouTube channel to see if the site is legit or a fail.

Hi Bellas,

I'm so excited to finally bring you another video in my travel series.  I'm sharing you tips on how I packed for my last cruise a 4 day trip on Carnival from Long Beach to Catalina Island and Ensenada Mexico.  This is my first time cruising on the West Coast, and with a baby!  I hope you're as obsessed with packing videos as much as me.  Check it out!

Hi Bellas,

I'm mixing it up and showing you a live demo of how to color correct using airbrush makeup.  I did this makeover during my makeup class using the new Graftobian airbrush color correctors.  It was my first time using them and the finish was great - super natural and very easy to cover redness, dark underlies and blemishes.  Check it out!



Hi Guys,

Happy Friday!  I'm so excited to end the week with a giveaway.  If you saw my 6 month update, you know that Bella loves her SwaddleDesigns transitional swaddle.  It's helped us transition out of her traditional swaddle, gives her snug comfort but also lets her have her arms out.  You can start with one arm out at a time.


The swaddles have a double zipper design so it's super easy to let their bottoms out to change them without taking off the entire garment.


I'm super lucky that the company is hooking up one of my followers with their own swaddle.  To win, just make sure you follow me on Instagram, like this giveaway post, and leave a comment telling me why you'd like to win!  Good luck!

You can find more about the company at www.swaddledesigns.com



Hi Bellas,

I'm finally back with another makeover, sorry for the delay!  Today's client is a bride getting ready for her Spring wedding.  She was a referral from a previous bride.  She's not a makeup wearer so we went for something super fresh and natural.  We put a little shimmer on the lids, a natural false lash and then focused on perfecting her skin.  Lastly, we put a glossy lip color similar to her natural lips and voila, fresh and glowing bride!


Stay tuned for makeup on the big day! 




Hi Bellas,

I don't know about anyone else but I am struggling to find cute clothes for my post partum body and ones that are breastfeeding friendly.  I thought it'd be interesting to do a review and try on of some items from the Asos Nursing/Maternity line since we all love this brand.  Check out to see whether the clothes ended up being fashionable or frumpy!
