Right now I may not be wearing real pants everyday (where my WFH people at?), but I am getting ready shoulders-up on some level for Zoom meetings (and let's be honest, for my own self esteem). With all of the beauty sales lately, I've been trying to limit myself to simply replenishing staples or snagging … Continue reading Sephora Sale Alert: round up of my daily beauty favorites
Summertime and the linen’s easy
Fewer fabrics were seriously woven for summer than linen (water-repelling nylon/spandex blends aside). It breathes, it moves, it wrinkles like your toes spent too much time in the hot tub... but in an effortless "it's summer and I'm a beachy, effortless gal" sort of way. *cue pina colada sip* While my linen britches wont find … Continue reading Summertime and the linen’s easy
Giveaway & Review: Smile Brilliant Electric Toothbrush
Dentophobia -the fear of dentists- is a top 5 phobia that torments my brain. (And I’m getting braver around certain bug species, so I mean really, it has a shot of climbing into the final 4.) The sucky thing that catches your cheek sometimes. The pokey metal thing they stick in your gums. The scraping. … Continue reading Giveaway & Review: Smile Brilliant Electric Toothbrush
Half-Up Robin’s Nest: weekend hair
I know the ol' Pinterest adage is something like "messy hair don't care (peace emoji)", but allow me to be slightly transparent. Realize, I'm never not gonna care just a little bit. And out of this vain inability to never not care comes the Half Up Robin's Nest. The preamble to my "tutorial", and therefore this blog post, … Continue reading Half-Up Robin’s Nest: weekend hair
Swimsuits 2018
LADIES. If I have learned one thing by the ripe old age of 26, it’s that no matter what number the tag in your jeans tells you you are, swimsuit shopping is. the. PITS. You feel me? You do. I know you (probably) do. Yesterday was National Bikini Day, a holiday not wasted on me. … Continue reading Swimsuits 2018
Gettin’ down with the button down
I've loved the reinvention and evolution of the classic button-down trend over the last five or so years. (Ah yes, suspend disbelief with me and let's pretend for a time that I'm truly an expert in the broad field of Fashion, dear reader. Am I fooling anyone? And now collectively, let's L-O-L, because we all … Continue reading Gettin’ down with the button down
1-2-3 Lemon Cookies
My mother is a baker; the kitchen barstools, something of a counseling couch in my childhood home. This isn't breaking news to anyone who befriended any of our family in the last 1-to-30 years, plus is likely 100% responsible for my personal sweet tooth and affinity for knowing my way around a spatula. I spent … Continue reading 1-2-3 Lemon Cookies
Color Crush: Pink
Purple (Ultra Violet) was officially crowned Pantone Color of the Year 2018 by the design gods that be, but I think someone forgot to tell Pink. Have you noticed, too? I could be living in a visual echo chamber where I'm choosing see what I'm putting out into the universe lately, and I'm here to tell you, … Continue reading Color Crush: Pink
A Styled Screen Tee
Between the years of like 2000-2004, laying out my outfits was basically as easy as pairing this t-shirt with those jeans, and polishing my nails to match the day's ensemble. Repeat Monday-Friday. (Early signs of a little O to the C to the D? Just maybe.) In those early, awkward middle school days, Aeropostale took far more babysitting … Continue reading A Styled Screen Tee
High Five for Friday 05
High. Five. Indeed. We've been high-fiving a lot of things* around Casa Karber, as of late, primarily today (yesterday) the fact that February is over. From everyone's "how can it be March already?!"s, I feel like I may be alone in asking did it feel like it took twenty years to get through January-February this year? It … Continue reading High Five for Friday 05
