A Texas Girl Exploring the World
It’s time to talk budgeting! With #weddingseason seeming to never end (we are at 3/6 for this year and next year is filling up!), I thought this would be the perfect time to talk about a big expense- being in the bridal party! Being in a bridal party can get veerrryyy pricy. While there are […]
Now that I have been working for a few years, I have become pretty good at figuring out office dress codes- from business to super-casual, I’ve worked at offices across the spectrum. Right now, I’m in a fairly casual setting, but wanted to put together a list of items every working girl should own, regardless […]
HOW is Thanksgiving this week?? It feels like Halloween was yesterday (especially since we just took down our decorations) and summer was last week! I am not at all ready for Christmas- I need to buy gifts, get all my decorations out, start getting the house ready, etc. I love Thanksgiving so I’m trying to […]
It’s time for my next 101 in 1001! I put one together at the beginning of 2016, and while I didn’t get through all of them, or even write down 101 things, it’s exciting to see what I accomplished! If you’re unfamiliar with 101 in 1001, Mackenzie Horan of Design Darling has done 3 lists and […]

I’m going to start off this post by saying that I am clearly not a food blogger. But, I get lots of requests from family/friends/coworkers on how I cook so often. Z and I almost never eat out during the week, and I cook dinner almost every night. I wanted to put together a few tips […]
I am VERY excited about today’s post- I’m giving all my tips and tricks for how to plan a bridal shower! One of my best friends got engaged recently, and as one of the maids of honor, I recently hosted her bridal shower. I knew NOTHING about hosting a shower! None of my friends/family are married […]
A few weeks ago I spoke on a panel for the communications fraternity I was a member of in college. While it makes me feel super old to be an alum speaking on panels, it did give me the opportunity to share what I’ve learned in the ‘real world.’ One of the first questions we […]
This is a post I have been meaning to write for a long time and am super excited about! Ever since I started working full-time after graduation, I have become addicted to podcasts. Like pretty much everyone else, Serial was what got me absolutely hooked. Since I get asked about which podcasts I listen to pretty […]
