Camilla Gray!

February 22, 2016August 15, 2013

A little over a month ago, I gave birth to the love of my life, Camilla Gray. She came in to the world during a planned c-section in early July. She was 9 pounds 2 ounces, 21 inches, and was born with a full head of black hair. I have been recovering from my c-section for the past few weeks and I am finally starting to feel normal again. It does not help that I have not been sleeping as much as normal, but even with the lack of sleep, I am getting better. I just started really dressing her up in the outfits that everyone has bought for her. She’s actually already in size 3 month clothing. She went through the newborn clothing in about 2 1/2 weeks. As soon as she regained her birth weight, they started getting tight.

Fall Trend Quilted Skirts

February 22, 2016August 13, 2013

This is the start of my shopping for fall. I found an amazing quilted skirt at Nordstrom that is completely on trend and totally wearable. I am working on getting thinner after having my baby so I need some clothing for my transition period. I adore this Quilted Front Ponte Knit Pencil Skirt by Halogen because of the side panels that creates a slimming effect and also the fabric is stretch and comfortable. I took a cue from the Fall Ready to Wear Runways in purchasing this versatile black skirt. Quilted skirts were found on the Fall 2013 Ready to Wear Runway of: 3.1 Phillip Lim, Rebecca Taylor, Michael Kors, See by Chloe, and Rag & Bone.

I went to SoBlo last week for the second time to get my hair done for a blogger event hosted by Kristen Clark of Living In Color Print. Kristen is FSU Alum and Style Setter for Boca Town Center which is now basically in my backyard. Kristen is a sweetheart! I also met some awesome bloggers like fellow mommy and fashionista, Alyson of The Average Girl’s Guide. Check out beach chic hair last time I went to SoBlo.

Beauty Tips on How to Combat ALLERGY FACE™

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Zyrtec. All opinions are 100% mine.

I have been plagued by allergies for my entire life. When I was a kid, I was allergic to dogs, but thankfully that allergy is gone. Now, my worst allergies are cats, weeds and dust. I do have some food allergies that can get annoying like strawberries, red wine, peaches, and marshmallows. Of course, I love all these things! I really don’t have it that bad as my sister is still allergic to dogs and my mom is allergic to the sun. Can you imagine? My sister is living with me and my puppy, Harrison Ford. She loves him so much that she cannot help petting him. ZYRTEC® is her go to medicine when she is suffering after hugging “The Ford”. Sometimes, when I cannot avoid my allergies or I don’t know that I have eaten or been exposed to my allergies, my throat and ears start to get itchy, I immediately look for a ZYRTEC®. For me, the best way to combat Allergy Face is to grab a ZYRTEC®. I have tried to cover up the bags under my eyes caused by allergies, but the best thing I can do for it is take a ZYRTEC®.

There are several ways to combat Allergy Face with makeup tips as 66% of women with allergies feel ugly or unattractive because of their Allergy Face. Don’t let your allergies ruin your day!
