When I think of wine, I tend to think of Napa or the Sonoma Valley in California, or at least places that would require me to take at least a short flight. But it turns out a short drive west of D.C., the Virginia landscape turns into wine country, covered by over 250 wineries serving as … Continue reading Getaway: Virginia Wineries

Work-Week Style
For years, it has been a dream of mine to move to D.C. I honestly love EVERYTHING about it and even the worst days here seem so much better than some of the best I had in Florida. There is only one thing that really gets to me at times and that is the fashion … Continue reading Work-Week Style
Must-try Miami Locals
As the weather in D.C. begins to warm up, I can't help but imagining what Miami is feeling like this time of the year and what I would've been doing if I were still living there. If you've never been to D.C., (or didn't have much time to explore the food scene here) you … Continue reading Must-try Miami Locals
Homemade Pesto Pasta
Pasta can be very simple to make and doesn't take too much time, so it's always at the top of my list when I'm craving comfort food (or if I'm really hungry and can't think of other yummy/quick things to make). However, too many starches and canned sauces can be a little deterring to my … Continue reading Homemade Pesto Pasta
Truly Organic Cleanse
When I came back from my Internship in Barcelona, my jet-lagged body wasn't the only thing that had to adjust to being back in the States. My scalp was dry and looked like it was going to completely disintegrate (gross, I know) and as if that wasn't bad enough, my hair was falling out at … Continue reading Truly Organic Cleanse

Well... I recently received one of Influenster's Vox Boxes for their Slim … Continue reading Influenster Slim Fast Box
YSL Touché Eclat Neutralizer
I don't know about my readers, but I suffer from some serious under eye dark spots and sometimes even some discoloration and dullness - especially after a break-out. Usually, my go to product is of course, some concealer and maybe some luminizer to brighten my face and off-set any dullness. But I recently received a … Continue reading YSL Touché Eclat Neutralizer
My Favorite Post-Workout Smoothie
After a morning workout I feel like I need something that is filling and healthy but will still give me that boost of energy I need to get my day going. Protein shakes are great for taking on-the-go since I usually don't have much time between the gym and work, but they can get really … Continue reading My Favorite Post-Workout Smoothie
Spicy Oven Rosted Chickpeas
Anyone who knows me, knows I LOVE spicy food and I get cravings for something spicy several times during the week. The problem is these spicy snacks are cheap but probably not very healthy for me so I knew I had to find an alternative while still getting my spicy, tasty snacks. This is where … Continue reading Spicy Oven Rosted Chickpeas
Brazil Nut Energy Truffles
I recently read an article about a New Years Resolution in July and how it is never too late to start working towards your goals again. My personal goal for the year was to be healthier and watch what goes into my body because in the end it is my temple and what I put … Continue reading Brazil Nut Energy Truffles
