The last post of 2016 is officially here. I don’t think another year has ever gone faster than the one we are in right now. It may be an old age thing, it could be a busy thing [but lets be real, aren’t we all] or it may just be a fact thing. The last twelve months have flown by faster than Brad and Angelina’s marriage and while it’s been quick, it’s been a good twelve months at that. From traveling to California multiple times, Utah, Colorado, Nashville, Atlanta and more to unconsciously transitioning to this blog from lifestyle to a more fashion focused hangout spot, all while still trying to pretend I know how to get dressed most days. I’ve changed jobs, made new friends, learned repeatedly that I can’t and don’t want to do it all and consumed an unhealthy amount of macaroni and cheese.

Thanks to Nordstrom’s free shipping and free return policy, it doesn’t matter if it my order weighs 2 pounds or 200 pounds.
When choosing a winter coat, I didn’t want something that looked like what everybody else was wearing. Thankfully Ralph Lauren came through in the clutch. Paired with a cute floppy hat, my favorite heels [seriously, I swear by these] and a chic black leather purse – this winter look will keep you warm while looking hot. A mighty fine duo if I don’t say so myself.
“I feel like my entire makeup bag is just Tarte products” – actual words from the LIY Team. It’s no secret we’re BIG fans of Tarte Cosmetics around here. Between the trusty concealer we’ve been using for years and the lip balm we’re trying in every single shade, Tarte has become a staple in our […]
