The 4th of July sales are in full swing already! Large retailers are always having sales so I like to focus on many of the smaller brands that I regularly use and love. Their sales are few and far between so I rounded up the best ones now to miss this weekend!

As soon as the warm weather hits, I like to swap out my leather and suede bags for a straw or rattan tote. Years ago the options for straw bags were so basic and didn’t look good with work outfits or outfits that weren’t super casual. Fast forward to now and there are so many amazing styles that work for any summer outfits you could wear. In this post, I rounded up 11 of my favorite straw or rattan bag options to carry this summer.

Summer is here and my entire wardrobe has to shift because it is one of the hardest seasons to dress for. The heat and humidity makes getting dressed difficult so you have to build a wardrobe with classic pieces that you can style over and over each year. Things that make you feel put together and are timeless but still work in the hot temperatures. It’s definitely possible but takes some planning. I’ve put together 10 summer wardrobe essentials that every closet needs and will allow you to create looks easily with these pieces as your foundation.

I’ve been sharing my monthly favorites nearly every month for the past 10+ years but only on video (IG, Tiktok, YouTube). I’ve never shared my favorites in a blog post but thought I would begin doing so in case you ever miss my monthly favorites video. These are all my favorite, most worn and most enjoyed products from the month. I love putting these lists together and sharing the best of the best with all of you! Here are my favorites from the month of June 2026.

If you have been following my content and posts for any length of time, you would have seen me share my love for all my LED skincare devices. I’ve been using multiple devices for almost 3 years so I can really speak to their effectiveness. LED masks help to give smoother skin, fewer wrinkles, reduced acne, and a more youthful appearance without invasive treatments. I’ve had many people over the years consistently ask me if the results are backed by science or simply marketing. I’m thrilled to dedicate an entire post to why I love and regularly use LED masks so you can decide if it is worth the investment for yourself.
