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?

Then I headed down to @nicksnewhairdesign to get tinsel added to my hair…yes TINSEL! The hottest 2022 Holiday trend can be added to your hair and I can’t tell you how obsessed I am with how it turned out! Since I walked out of the salon I’ve had people stop me on the streets asking me about it!

Life Lately…February 2015

Life Lately | February 2015 | #LivingAfterMidnite

If you live in the NY/CT area ((they also have locations in Atlanta now too!)) & have never been to bartaco your life isn’t complete. I’ve been going for years & it never disappoints, not even a 2 hour wait for a table could stop me from going. When you go make sure to order a sashito to drink, guacamole to share with the table, grilled corn and at least 3 or 4 tacos (they’re small!). I recommend pork belly, fried oyster & duck…just trust me!

Life Lately | February 2015 | #LivingAfterMidnite

HP is seriously stepping up their game! I didn’t think it could get better than my Sprout desktop, but this new x360 laptop/tablet is amazing! I can’t get over how lightweight it is. It’s quickly becoming my go to electronic (I’m even on it right now!)
Onto more important things like 50 Shades of Grey! First off I had three 50 shades themed posts this month…obsessed much? But really, I finally saw the movie about a week after it opened and I thought they did a great job with it. I know a lot of people didn’t enjoy it, but I love the casting and the movie was everything I hoped it would be. Crossing my fingers for a quick turnaround for the second one. In other news when we were in the theater I saw a movie poster for Crossfire! If you’re a 50 Shades fan stop what you’re doing and download The Crossfire Series on your Kindle now! I seriously think I liked it even better than 50 Shades…

Life Lately | February 2015 | #LivingAfterMidnite

Tracy & I spent our Oscars Sunday with Elle & Crest 3D White for an awesome viewing party! I’m ashamed to say I barely saw any of the movies nominated, but that didn’t stop me from watching! And let’s be serious, hands down the best part of the night was the Lady Gaga performance…amazing!!! It would be a party without a ridiculous photo booth pic…for an even funnier picture follow me on Twitter.
While we’re talking about movies, I mentioned last month that I was reading Gone Girl but was having trouble getting into it…well I’m still not even half way through. I’m about to call it quits and just watch the movie.

Life Lately | February 2015 | #LivingAfterMidnite

I swear I ate my weight in chocolate this month! Between Valentine’s Day & ordering dessert every single time I’ve gone to eat it’s becoming a problem! Good thing I just signed up for Pure Barre’s March Challenge – 20 classes in 31 days! I did it in August, but somethings telling me this time around is going to be a little harder!

Life Lately | February 2015 | #LivingAfterMidnite

Tracy, Megan & I escaped the cold for a couple of hours this past week to hang out with the Palm Breeze team to sample their new products & let me tell you these babies went down a little too easy. I can guarantee these will be making multiple appearances by the pool this summer. ((Available for purchase in April!))
Until next month…
