What I Actually Learned in College | {Shelbie}

March 22, 2016


It's senior year and I'm like "where the heck did the time go?" Lately my roommate and I have been remising a lot, and I mean A LOT. Are we having an oh-crap-we-are-graduating-soon life crisis? Maybe. But when we think back on everything we experienced in college, we aren't sad. We are so grateful. I would say I've learned a few more important things than the significance of ancient Greek pottery, or that Ladies' Home Journal was the first magazine to reach 1 million readers.

Best & Worst Dressed at the 2016 Oscars | {Kali}

March 1, 2016
Well, award season is officially over (sad!). As far as the show went, I thought Chris Rock was really funny and of course, enjoyed seeing Leo finally get that Oscar, but they need to figure out a way to make it shorter (11pm is way past my bedtime)! However, the red carpet did not disappoint. See my picks for best and worst dressed below!

Best Dressed:



Charlize Theron very much had the wow factor when she hit the carpet on Sunday night. Until I saw her, I was actually pretty bored with the dresses. She was the first person I saw that I was excited about. I always love a classic red dress, and this one was sexy but not too over-the-top (like, for example, Olivia Wilde's—too much!)

I was worried for a little bit when the E! Red Carpet show ended and we hadn't yet seen Jennifer Lawrence! She may have been late to the carpet, but her look was definitely not one to miss! I think people had mixed feelings about this dress, but I'm obsessed. Plus, her hair and makeup are absolute perfection!

♥ Valentine's Day Makeup - 2 Ways | {Kali}

February 11, 2016
With Valentine's Day in just a few days, I wanted to share with you two beautiful makeup looks to wear this weekend! Whether it's date night with your man, or a crazy girl's night out, these two looks are classic and beautiful. Big thanks to Megan for being my gorgeous blank canvas!

With both of these looks I'm sharing today, I used a mix of high-end and drugstore products. I definitely believe you can achieve both looks completely with drugstore products as well just by mixing and matching what I used for both!

Master Bedroom Inspiration | {Kali}

February 6, 2016


Hi guys! Here's a sneak peak of the before of our master bedroom. Because I pretty much wanted to update every room in our house when we moved in (besides the basement), the bedrooms have been my last priority. However, when we moved in year ago, I didn't want to have a completely bare master bedroom, so any random extra decor I had laying around that I was not using anywhere else went to the bedroom. So, it's pretty much a mish-mash of random decor with no vision whatsoever. We also had all black bedroom furniture which was Zac's before we moved in together (too masculine for my taste!). And, as I'm sure you know by now, I wasn't a fan of so. much. BEIGE. (we dealt with this in every room of our house). I'm sure in 20 years beige will be back in, and gray will be out. BUT, until then, I had to update everything—I desperately needed a more contemporary feel.
