The New DryBar Bellevue!
The biggest news around town over the past few weeks is that DryBar finally came to Seattle!! This well known blowout salon is in California, Vancouver and other West Coast locations but had never been in the PNW! Their first location right by Bellevue Square Mall is open and is already packed with hair fanatics.
Capitol Hill Block Party 2018
Another year of solid music and dancing around the streets of Capitol Hill! Last weekend, my boyfriend and I ventured to Saturday of Capitol Hill Block Party which is centered on Pike St. between Broadway & 12th. I use to live right by CHBP where you could run between seeing artists you loved and having a lawn party with friends a few blocks away. Unfortunately those days are over, but I still love attending for the music and ambiance that fills my favorite Seattle neighborhood.
What to Wear to Capitol Hill Block Party
Capitol Hill Block Party, lovingly known to locals as CHBP, is one of my favorite weekends of the summer! It's three days when Capitol Hill streets fill up with music, dancing, and the trendiest Seattle outfits!
Clam Bake at the Lake
Part afternoon floating on Lake Sammamish and part sit-down semi-formal dinner featuring rosé, clams, beautiful salads, and a gorgeous Hamptons-inspired tablescape.
June Favorites
I'm starting a new series here on my blog of my monthly favorites! Whether it's style, travel or just overall about life, I'll be sharing what's top of mind! Browse through to see what I'm obsessing over this month.
Wedding Blues
Spending a night filled with dancing, laughter, and love is all I could ask for! I love attending wedding, but getting ready and finding a cute outfit that I'll realistically only wear once is daunting - I don't want to break the bank but also want to look cute!
A Perfect Facial in Seattle
Last week I was invited to the stunning Penelope and the Beauty Bar in the Fairmont Olympic Hotel to get a Perfect Facial! I've only had one facial before a few years ago, so at a very high level knew what to expect, but was still thoroughly blown away.
Travel With Me: Marrakech
As a side trip during our two weeks in London (read my London blog post one and two here), my boyfriend Brian and I went to Marrakech, Morocco for three nights! I've never been to Africa before, and with only being a 3.5 hour flight, Marrakech seemed like the perfect excursion for some beauty, adventure and fun!
Sunday Funday at SoulCycle!
My ideal girls party happened! Thirteen of my closest friends and I went to SoulCycle South Lake Union (SLUN) on Sunday to get our sweat on! I've loved going to SoulCycle in Bellevue since it opened early last year, and was thrilled they opened a second location in South Lake Union a few months ago. I live in Seattle, so this easier commute makes it that much simpler to get to class.
Travel With Me: London Part II
Continuing from Part I of my London Travel Diary, here are some of my favorite photos from the second part of our trip to London! There's a ton here, so enjoy and I hope you find something that inspires you for your next trip!
Travel With Me: London Part I
Not even a week after Coachella, my boyfriend Brian and I hopped on a flight to London. Despite the airline moving up the flight by SIX hours so that we had to take a last minute half day and scramble to pack, we were excited to go back to Europe!

Styling a Feminine Black Romper
You know how much I love rompers! My style tends to me more subtle (I've really tried to get more lively!) so I typically gravitate towards neutral tones year-round. I'm also a huge proponent of leveraging pieces you already have in your closet to pull together a look.
Create + Cultivate Los Angeles
Conferences can always be a whirlwind of learning and networking. That's exactly what Create + Cultivate's recent conference in Los Angeles was, just throw in some bright Instagram-worthy walls, massive influencers, and on-trend brand booths.
Stripes in Santa Monica
I want to show you guys one of my favorite looks from a recent trip to LA! With 70 degrees and sun in the winter, it's hard not to channel my Seattle summer style! Keep scrolling for my outfit details and to shop my look!
A Day Trip to the Washington Peninsula
Even on a cold February day, the Washington coast is absolutely gorgeous! I have a week off between jobs so have spent my days filled with pampering treatments, dinner with friends and a day trip with my mom!
Travel With Me: Joshua Tree
There's something about the desert. I grew up going to Eastern Washington every summer where my affinity for the desert started. The warmth of the sun hitting you, the beautiful desert foliage that looks like you're on Mars, and the peacefulness of being able to see far into the distance. This is why I love traveling to the Southwest, so when I found out we'd be visiting Joshua Tree National Park during a weekend trip to Palm Springs (read all about the trip here!), I couldn't wait!
Travel With Me: A Weekend in Palm Springs
Eleven girls headed to Palm Springs over MLK weekend to celebrate a beautiful bride-to-be! I love trips to the desert, so this was the perfect getaway weekend with amazing friends! I've pulled together my favorite shots of the weekend in this photo diary! From dinosaurs, to pool side parties, check out what we did and get some inspo for your next trip!
