National Hat Day | My Winter Style

Fashion•Outfits

Happy National Hat Day! #NationalHatDay If you didn’t know (or couldn’t tell) I am a HUGE hat fan -fedoras, berets, fisherman-style hats like this Scala Wool Fisherman Hat with a beautiful chain-link detail. I got this courtesy of Tenth Street Hats, and you should check them out because today they are running a sale. This hat is easy to pair with SO many things in my closet, but I had to pair it with this leopard-print sweater. At first, I thought the details of the chain-link & texture on the hat + the leopard print could be overwhelming, but...

Power Color | Mustard Yellow Sweaters

Fashion•Shopping

Today’s post is all about mustard yellow, specifically, mustard yellow sweaters thanks to the suggestion of my mom (thanks MOM)! When she was visiting, we found her a gorgeous mustard blouse at Primark and were talking about it being a “power color” – meaning it’s definitely a color that grabs attention and is a bold choice! Now, I’ve heard people say “I can’t pull off this color” or not everyone can wear this color. I disagree, as I believe anyone can pull anything off – all it takes is a little confidence! And anyone who TRULY believes that you...

My Perfect Beauty Travel Companion | Olay Regenerist Whip SPF 25

Beauty•Travel

This post is sponsored by Olay. If there’s one thing I want to simplify when packing for a vacation, it’s my beauty products. Namely, my skincare routine. I put a lot of effort into both my morning and night routine to ensure I’m taking the best care of my skin to keep my skin looking as youthful and refreshed as possible! This means using products that provide the ultimate hydration while also fighting against wrinkles and aging. That’s a lot to ask of a product, but I have fallen in love with the Olay Regenerist Whip SPF 25. I’ve...

Boston Brews: Widowmaker Brewing

Dog Friendly•Emma Approved•Lifestyle

Hello! I’m so excited to kick off a new series here on the blog – focused on one of my loves, GOOD BEER! Welcome to Boston Brews, a biweekly series where I will be sharing about a different brewery in the area. I actually wanted to start a similar series when I was still in Minneapolis because there are tons of good breweries there too, but what’s better than starting this off fresh in a new city? I will be posting at least every other Thursday because who doesn’t want to talk about or read about beer on Thirsty...
