After 3 long years I finally made it back to the West Coast & of course couldn’t pass up the opportunity to stay in @theramblermotel in Chula Vista, CA. 

And I’m a sucker for colorful, kitschy hotel with a really good coffee shop in the lobby (that happens to be an arcade) so staying here was a no brainer for me 🌈

One of my most asked questions I get about skincare treatments is “How do you know what to book?” with Monika you don’t have to worry about booking the “wrong facial” you can book a treatment by time & she will take care of the rest when she accesses your skin!

Monika customized a 60 minute @biologique_recherche_usa treatment for me that gently exfoliated, plumped fine lines, brightened and smoothed my skin texture 😍 the perfect way to start the New Year!

Have you gotten your New Year, New You facial yet?

20 Favorite Colorful Summer Dresses Under $40

20 Favorite Colorful Summer Dresses Under $40

I know in our last post we were talking about how every girl needs the perfect little white dress, BUT they also need the perfect colorful dress for Summer too! I’m all for spending a little more on a quality white dress that will last you for a few years, but when it comes to trendy, printed, colorful dresses that you’ll wear a ton this season, but may never wear again, I’m ALL about finding something inexpensive!

Megan and I pulled out all the stops for today’s post and picked out our favorite, super colorful new purchases to share with you guys! They are super trendy, super bright and SUPER inexpensive at under $40 each. I mean who doesn’t love summer dresses under $40?

I picked up this floral off the shoulder dress from Old Navy about 6 weeks ago and I’m pretty confident that I’ve already worn it about 5 or 6 times! I’ve dressed it down (see here) and dressed it up  like I did here with a belt and chunky sandals. And considering I got it on sale and paid about $30 for it I consider that a win! If it doesn’t make it til next summer I can confidently say I got my moneys worth, don’t you think?

Megan’s fun striped dress is of course from Target’s Who What Wear line (one of our FAVORITES). The colors are so fun and at under $35, it’s the perfect addition to your Summer wardrobe! And just in case these two dresses aren’t your style I’ve rounded up my 20 favorite colorful summer dresses under $40 for you to shop!
