I travel a lot. In the last five months alone I’ve been to four different countries and 15 different cities around the world. One thing I’ve learned, is that planning ahead can make a huge difference between a good trip and a great trip, and this includes packing correctly. But who has time to itemize their suitcase? Not only do I travel, but I still have a full-time job and my blog is an official LLC so I’m a business…

This year I really struggled with what I wanted to do to bring in the new year. It was a toss between celebrating and sleeping and up until 9:00 that morning, sleeping was in the lead. Then I remembered we had friends and I had this incredible Halston dress so we got a reservation at Fish by Jose Andrés in the MGM National Harbor. Fish was having a New Year’s Eve Gala with five courses, live music, fireworks and a champagne toast…
Before I met Dr. Naz, I decided I needed to stop smiling in 2019 to prevent wrinkles. I had been to other plastic surgeons for fillers and had a mixed bag of results – some fillers worked great and other I felt like I spent a lot of money for no visible result. Dr. Naz literally saved my smile and made me feel comfortable in my own skin without the “overdone” look. Let me start by saying she didn’t ask…
Santorini was my Mom and my favorite island we visited during our Greece trip. It’s known for having one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world and is a 2 and 1/2 hour hydrofoil ride from Mykonos port. To help you discover the secrets of Santorini for yourself, I put together my top picks for an itinerary! Let me start by saying, there are no bad views in Santorini. The breathtaking cliffs will be sure to have you drinking…
The Magic of Mykonos – What to See, Where to Eat, and Instagram Photo Spots
May 10, 2018 - LifestyleMykonos was the first of the Cyclades islands we visited when we went to Greece and it was definitely unique by comparison. Think, quiet but glamorous fishing village by day and Pleasure Island from Pinocchio by night. During the on-season, this town is known for it’s partying 25 hours a day, 8 days a week. Since we went during off-season, we didn’t have to step over any drunk party-goers in the street or fight for a table to admire the…
My Mom and I just got back from our Mother-Daughter Greece trip and it was definitely one we’ll both remember forever. Not only because Greece is actual paradise, but also because we went just the two of us. We went during non-tourist season when the weather is still beautiful but we aren’t so overwhelmed with crowds and crazy hot temperatures to be able to enjoy it. There were a few things I wanted to share with you guys to know…
Micro hotels are the latest offering in the “small house, big living” world and they are a minimalist’s dream. I recently stayed in Hotel Hive, DC’s first micro hotel, with my sister, Chelsea, and best friend, Dorothy, and we loved the charm of this spot. There’s been a lot of change in the hotel world over the past few years with Airbnb and Glamping Hub popping up and major resorts and hotel chains competing to keep millennials booking with them. …
The new Bumble ad “Be the CEO your parents always wanted you to marry” has been widely published and it’s a mantra for so many women today that are more focused on building a career now and a family later (or never). But when Valentine’s Day comes around, it seems that powerful motto is forgotten and women are focused on the $50 bouquet of roses they’re not getting. I’m here to tell you, become the CEO and buy yourself the…
When I was first approached to try out the 2018 Genesis G80 Sport I already knew this was going to be a really fun collaboration. The holidays made it the perfect time of year to travel and visit family, plus my two-door car doesn’t have much space for holiday shopping. What I didn’t know, was just how stylish this car really was until it was delivered. I’m not a car salesman. I couldn’t tell you the difference between powertrain technology…
Sometimes you just need a little staycation to rediscover some of the great things your city has to offer. Chelsea and I did just that and packed our bags for an overnight at the AC Hotel by Marriott in the National Harbor. We hung out with some really fun local influencers and found out just what it means to live the #HarborLife. Let me start by saying I’m no stranger to Marriott. Platinum Elite Rewards Member, stayed…
