I recently went on a little shopping spree on Fossil’s website because they had a massive sale… on top of their sale! It was an additional 40% off on their sales/clearance prices so a lot of their inventory was very affordable. For those who don’t know, Fossil is a well-known retailer of affordable and nice…

Product Review: Rowenta X-cel Pocket Steamer
I fell into the linen craze this summer and purchased 5 linen dresses. What I love about linen clothes is two things: Unfortunately, my linen dresses came out extremely wrinkly from the dryer and when I put one on, I felt instantly embarrassed and knew there was no way to leave the house wearing a…
Monthly Reads | June 2023
