I’ve seen quite a few antihauls on YouTube, and thought it would be a fun post. They can be really helpful in deciding if you want to purchase something, and I enjoy watching them to see others’ opinions on products (especially makeup). Basically, I’m going to talk about palettes I will NOT be buying. There are quite a few new palettes coming out, and there have been a few come out recently. There is a lot of new makeup coming out, but I’ll be focusing on palettes. The first palette I won’…
I don’t have a lot of navy, but I like it. It’s a good color no matter the season, and this off the shoulder beauty is perfect for summer… and it’s really affordable. Paired with some tan or brown shoes, this look is perfect for a day with the girls or date night. It can be dressed up or down (it would be really cute tucked into a skirt). Both the shirt and the shoes are from Old Navy, and can frequently be found on sale (I used some Old Navy Cash to…
Hello, my name is Courtney, and I’m a makeup addict. My best friend Rachel is also a makeup addict. This is not good for either one of us, or our wallets. I got into makeup (I mean, seriously got into makeup) about 3 years ago, and it was mostly thanks to Rachel and my friend Sam. Since then, my collection has grown quite a bit. In November, Rachel told me about a YouTube series she’d gotten into, called the 12 pans of Christmas, which is part of a project pan segment. She suggested that I get…
Red and black paired together is one of my favorite color schemes for any outfit. It’s just a classic look that will always be timeless. I found a gorgeous red dress and stunning black heels that, paired together, make a gorgeous outfit. It’s perfect for date night or dressier events, and both items are so comfortable. This dress from Target is so classy. I love the high neck and the lace details on the sleeves, neck, and chest. AND it’s on sale for under $20! It’s very flowy, which makes it flattering…
*This post is sponsored by The Simple Greek. I was given the meals for free in exchange for my review, but was not compensated in any other way. A couple of weeks ago, The Simple Greek saw my 30 Lexington Restaurants before 30 post and invited me out to sample some of their menu items (their words, remember this). I love Greek food, and I’d seen some friends (mostly, Kelsey from Kabkitchen) post about The Simple Greek once it opened, and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it. The menu starts with two options…

No worries, we’re in the same boat. Although I’ve been single on Valentine’s Day for a few years, I still love the feel of Valentine’s Day. I love the little heart decorations, the pretty pinks and purples and reds, and the cutesie things for sale. Instead of pining and being upset about not being in a relationship on “Singles Awareness Day”, look at this…
Valentine’s Day is coming up. I’ve been a single girl for a while, but that doesn’t stop me from celebrating. I love hanging out with my girlfriends on Valentine’s Day. Last year I went to the gym with my friend Hannah and our pups had a play date (check out my post on Remus’ first Valentine’s Day to see my cutie’s Vday pics from last year). In college, I’d gather up some of my sorority sisters and head to dinner and a movie. This year…
A year ago, I made a life changing decision. I’ve never had the urge to be a mom, unless it was to a furry little creature with four legs and a tail. I’ve always known being a dog mom is my true calling. My friend Brooke knew I’d been thinking about getting a puppy, and she told me she knew of someone giving one away. They’d found him on the side of the road on New Year’s Eve, and had taken him in. I sent the lady a message, and…
I was born in Lexington, and raised in Georgetown. I’ve lived there my entire life, minus my four years in Morehead for college. Somehow, there are still plenty of restaurants in Lexington I haven’t tried. If you missed my 30 Before 30 list, one of the things I want to do before I turn 30 is try 30 new Lexington restaurants. I’ve heard recommendations for most of these, and some just sounded really good. I’m excited to try them and explore new local places! Here are all the places I want to…
Y’all, I think I’ve found a new favorite shirt. This cream shirt with pretty lace details is everything I’ve ever wanted in a shirt. It’s very pretty, it’s so comfortable, and it’s under $20. I wore this shirt on Black Friday for shopping with my family in Tennessee. I love that it’s long enough to wear with leggings, and that made it perfect for a full day of shopping. The lace details are gorgeous. They really add a special something to what would normally be a…
