Being a newlywed myself, my husband and I have been having so much fun transforming our house into a home since getting married. It’s honestly been a blast living with my best friend, decorating and putting all the sweet, thoughtful gifts away that friends and family have gifted us. Since being moved in for a month, I would love to share with you something that really comes in handy for newlyweds. That is a personalized wooden cutting board from Wood Be Mine on Etsy. I chose to share this gift idea because a lot people have asked me what we needed as newly married couple, and a cutting board was…

Sugarfina: The Luxury Candy Boutique
Okay guys, so I came across the coolest candy store when I was window shopping at the Ala Moana Center on vacation in Oahu, Hawaii. That is Sugarfina. Not planning on buying anything at the mall that day, my mind completely changed when I first walked into the beautiful, modern store displaying the most unique luxury candies in futuristic plastic cubes imported from all around the world. Being a sucker for dainty, interesting, little things, I couldn’t help but drag my fiance (now husband) into the store whether he liked it or not. Once being dragged inside against his will, he immediately grew just as fascinated once he noticed all of the…

A Must-Have for the Adventure Seekers: Hoo-Rags (Review)
I’m so lucky that I live less than an hour away from one of my favorite places- Mt. Hood! Being only my second year of snowboarding, I’ve significantly improved since last year. I could barely stand up the first couple of weeks last year which made it discouraging to continue to keep going up to the mountain, but I stuck it out and kept on going. This year on the other hand has been quite a blast so far! Since improving this year, I been wondering why I haven’t been snowboarding earlier in my life?! I’ve sure been missing out! With snowboarding being such a blast, there’s only one downside…

The Perfect Gift for the Traveler: The Happiest Tee (Review)
What’s one of the things that makes me happiest? That would easily be traveling, especially with people I love. One of my favorite destinations to travel to is Hawaii. I’ve been there twice now and am traveling back to Oahu next month. Hawaii has a special place in my heart because when I went there for the first time at the age of 4, I learned how to swim, the second time (2016) went for a family vacation and wedding, and now next month I am the one getting married there! So lots of special memories that have been made and are yet to be made there in the beautiful island state…

December Favorites: Mirakle Skin Face Cream (Review)
I’m a very cautious person when it comes to what kind of moisturizer goes on my face. It can’t be too heavy, strong scented and most certainly CAN’T leave my face feeling like I rubbed butter all over it. I’ve come across moisturizers in the past that literally feel like they just sit on the surface of the face without absorbing whatsoever. Claiming to simply moisturize, those moisturizers just left me with acne- and an extra oily face. Anyway, since I’m so picky, I’ve been trying out all kinds of different skin care product to see which ones work and which ones don’t, especially since it’s around that time of…
