Are you guilty of making promises to yourself to take better care of your hair, nails and skin – and then break them? The reasons for skimping out on beauty care or a beauty makeover are limitless – "I don't have time", "Beauty products are way too expensive", "Nobody cares", "I got other things to worry about anyway." Well, now we've created a 21-day beauty makeover challenge that would help you step out of your comfort zone and try new beauty products and processes. The key to this beauty makeover challenge is to select 2 or 3 tips to transform your look within your budget and weekly schedule.
21 Days to Your Beauty Makeover and a New You
Day 1: Ditch the foundation and use a Beauty Balm cream for coverage. While foundation mainly adds a layer of color, BB cream as they are most known, moisturizes, protects, and corrects skin complexion.
Day 2: Make an appointment with a skin care specialist, or dermatologist, to see what's really going on under the surface. A dermatologist can give you a strong prescription to help you treat acne or diminish wrinkles. They are critical to your outer and inner beauty makeover, and an all-around complete beauty transformation – minus the botox.
Day 3: Buy a new lipstick color that you've never wore before. Here's your opportunity to go red or … orange!

Day 4: Get an electric blue or white eyeliner to make your eye pop on your next night out. The key here is to add black eyeliner first and then place the bold-color eyeliner right above it or closer to the inner creases of your eyes.
Day 5: You gain some, you lose some. Make an appointment for eyebrow threading and eyelash extensions.
Day 6: Use an anti-aging skin product at night so your skin can rejuvenate overnight.
Day 7: Clear gloss is safe and tried and true. Switch it up with a tinted lip gloss or lip stain.
Day 8: Your beauty makeover is nothing without working on beauty inside out. Vitamins such as Biotin and Vitamin E are essential for healthy skin, hair and, nails. If you don't get enough from your foods, and lotions, you have to get them in your body this way.
Day 9: Use a gentle skin cleanser – creamy for dry skin, or oil-free foaming cleanser for oily skin.
Day 10: Put down the false eyelashes and step out with loads of anti-gravity mascara to keep your eyes looking alert. The key here is to elongate and accentuate.
Day 11: Book a makeup appointment with a professional makeup artist. Be sure to ask questions about any facial areas of concern you may have. A makeup artist could be essential in helping you choose beauty products that work for you, way after this beauty makeover challenge is long gone.
Day 12: Wash your face twice daily with a cleanser that has benzoyl peroxide to keep blemishes under control.
Day 13: Steam your face. Yep, we said it. If you can't go to the sauna, bring the sauna to you. Dip a hand towel in boiling water, squeeze out the excess water, allow 30 seconds to cool, then rest it on your face. Your pores will thank you.
Day 14: Hydrated skin looks more youthful so drink plenty of water – and by plenty, we mean 2 more glasses or bottles of water daily.
Day 15: Skip the design wear and get a pair of sunglasses that block 99% of UVA or UVB rays, and at least 75% of visible light.
Day 16: Your lips need sun protection too. Make sure you use a lip product with SPF 30. It's okay to layer lip products, as long as you get ample coverage and protection from the sun. Safety first.
Day 17: Blush! Whether your skin is cocoa brown or olive, a rosy blush would take your beauty look up a notch. Use with caution – too much of it will make you look like a clown, and we don't want that. Simply soft subtle strokes will do.
Day 18: An exfoliator can release extra dirt from within your pores. If you have dry skin, you should do this at least once a week – twice a week if you have oily skin.
Day 19: Pull your hair back. Show off your beauty. Try a new hairstyle that removes the ends of your hair from falling on your forehead or cheeks, to prevent the oils of your hair from irritating your pores. (Here's a secret: An excellent makeup artist give you tips and pointers on how to make your forehead or nose appear smaller or bigger – if you are a bit on the self-conscious side.)
Day 20: Test organic skin products or drugstore products on a less noticeable part of your skin to prevent allergic skin reaction and irritation. You may just like them.
Day 21: Exercise. Exercising can increase the blood flow and flush out dirt from your skin.
Try these few things and you're on your way to a fresh start –creating new beauty habits.

I'm very excited to be participating in this first edition of Freaky Friday with a wonderful recipe for Homemade Onion Soup Mix from Honey & Birch! What's Freaky Friday, you ask? Michaela at An Affair from the Heart came up with the idea for this old-fashioned blog hop.
In a nutshell Freaky Friday is … I've made and shared a recipe from Jenny at Honey & Birch, and she's made a recipe from someone (a secret that I don't know who it is yet), and she's made a recipe from someone, and if you clicked through all the way around all 14 bloggers, you would get back to my blog. Thus, a blog hop! So, if you would be so kind as to hop around and take a look at everyone participating, I promise it'll be fun, and you'll get lots of new recipe ideas!
Jenny at Honey & Birch:
I recently met Jenny through Facebook, and have been very impressed with her recipes and yummy photos. She shares many of the same ideas about food as I do. Though she isn't vegetarian, her recipes feature lots of whole foods, and very few processed foods or junk foods. She says in her About Section, "While we aren't health nuts, I realized we were heading down the wrong path and I decided that I need to make a change." Yep, I was there at one time too, eating out too often and wanting to eat better.
I looked through her fabulous collection of recipes and was really excited about her Homemade Onion Soup Mix. See, I've been thinking about one of my Childhood Favorites Remade for a while now, and Lipton Onion Soup Packets were one of the ingredients in the original main dish recipe. Well, now if Jenny has a homemade version of Onion Soup Mix, that fit perfectly into my plans!
The last recipe I posted was for Dried Apricot Jam, which is a homemade version of one of the ingredients in the final Childhood Favorites Remade main dish. Now, this Onion Soup Mix is the next ingredient in the final main dish. I have one more ingredient recipe to share, and then the main dish! I'm very excited about this one! And, if you want to jump ahead to the end, here's the final dish: Italian Apricot Stew or Italian Apricot Chicken.
Jenny's Homemade Onion Soup Mix can be used anywhere you might use one of those packets: in a crock-pot, a stew, a dip (just stir the soup mix into some sour cream), or even soup. When I was a kid, I used to come home from school and make those onion soup packets into soup and eat that as my after-school snack. Weird, I know! Of course, I can't eat those packets anymore because they have beef (plus lots of weird ingredients) in them. I love that Jenny's version is vegetarian and gluten-free.
So, with that, here's some Homemade Onion Soup Mix, and please be sure to click through to visit Honey & Birch. Oh, and keep an eye out for my next two recipes (so you can get the Childhood Favorites Remade main dish!)
Want to see all of my recipes? Follow me over on Pinterest!

Hello fellow CHers.
My question is fairly easy to respond to through the title, but some background.
There is a certain restaurant in my town, and I know the owner quite well.
Strangely, whenever he gets a negative review, within a few hours there are about ten new reviews praising his restaurant. Coincidence?
Last week I bailed him up in this and he insists that it's not his family and friends creating new accounts and posting glowing reviews. I call bullshit.
I used to work for a high end restaurant where the owner simply refused to respond to social media reviews. His reasoning was that anyone with a reasonable complaint should be dealt with before they leave the restaurant, and if they don't have the integrity to actually talk to the venue and sort things out, the review on social media is just a cowardly rant.
What say you?

Have you ever been asked for your fingerprints when buying a car?
"Imagine you've gone through a multiple week process to purchase an automobile.
You know the drill. Research every feature, pick your color, then, it's negotiations for purchase price and for trade-in. Everything is done and agreed-apon, and excited, you are ready to hand over the check and collect your new car.
But wait!
You are handed a slip of paper and told to mark your right thumbprint in a box. The paper says clearly that it's a request, for your protection, and to prevent your identity theft.
When you politely decline, the dealership refuses to sell you the car.
This is precisely what happened to me today when I tried to purchase a new X3 at the South Bay BMW dealer in Torrance, California...
Taken completely by surprise by all this, my husband and I asked many questions about this process. We were told that the data would remain on file at the dealership for seven years. That this policy is in place to protect us. That there are many bad, bad people in the world, who commit fraud, and that by recording everybody's fingerprints, they would be deterred from committing fraud."

5 Things #FollowFriday Has Become
#FollowFriday is currently one of the most popular trends on Twitter. The concept is basically showing TwitterLuv by recommending Tweeps to follow each and every Friday; using the hashtag #FollowFriday. You simply search #FollowFriday by using the Twitter search tool on the Twitter homepage and follow stream of people using the #FollowFriday hashtag and follow folks as they come in. The other is option is to watch your personal Twitter stream and follow those that are recommended.
That is what #FollowFriday was and these are the 5 Things #FollowFriday Has Become:
- …so saturated that it's like a Lake instead of a River. Not that you can't find some some good stuff in a lake, a river is just more focused.
- …a tool to say "What's Up", Give a Head Nod, Shake a Hand, Give a #FistBump, Say Thanks… to Tweeps that you have: connected with, make you laugh or add value to your Tworld.
- …a great way to receive a recipricol shout-out… I shout out to you, you shout out to me!
- …a Twideo game… almost like Pac Man; you avoid some things in the maze and eat some things in the maze. As each level Friday goes by the harder and harder the game becomes. As the weeks go by and more and more people continue to join Twitter, the less and less meaningful #FollowFriday will become. Not sure the time-frame of the effectiveness shelf-life, just know the buzz is not the same this Friday as it was 4 Friday's ago.
- …Twitter's version of Pimp My Ride… you can pimp yourself on #FollowFriday as much as you can those you're recommending.
The bottom line is #FollowFriday is free, so go ahead and use it up, play the game, share the love. Embrace The 5 Things #FollowFriday Has Become and understand that recommendations don't always equate to more followers. I personally appreciate each and every recommendation that I receive, I always try to say Thank You by at-least giving a #FollowFriday #FistBump to those that recommend me. Feel free to follow and recommend me @scottwilliams Just Trying To Pimp My Ride!
Do you use #FollowFriday? Share your thoughts on the 5 Things #FollowFriday Has Become, add to the list, rant…

A recent article in American Banker, "the 'Branch of the Future' Will Still Be a Branch" discusses how banks are working to deliver a great Customer Experience at branch-level using new technologies to enhance face to face interactions. Adoption of new customer-centric technologies, such as in-branch Wi-Fi and Digital Signage are all used to create an environment where Customers can drop-in to do their work, as well as conduct transactions that they prefer to do face to face.
The following point may be surprising because so much energy has been devoted to "digital channel customer engagement" in the Retail Financial sector over recent years, but a study by McKinsey actually shows something that seems counter-intuitive, the more that customers use digital channels, the more they want human interaction.
Because of this shift in customer behavior, banks areworking to increase the value of those human interactions, for example by delivering "big data" driven applications that transform the function of branch staff by enabling them to make informed proactive recommendations to customers rather than passively responding to inquiries.
These advances mandate that branch-level connectivity is transformed from the 20th century capacity-constrained model to one that offers high-availability, high-bandwidth network connectivity at every branch. Carrier, or Metro Ethernet, is the model of choice for network operators to deliver this connectivity.
Connecting branches to this new infrastructure is seldom simple though; It takes coordination between multiple parties and may even require physical trenching to be dug between the branch and the local point of presence. Doing this at one location would be no small job, but managing this for a regional or nationwide portfolio is a massive undertaking.
We can help. At Concert, we collaborate with network carriers and local exchange carriers (LECs) every day to plan and manage the deployment of next-generation network infrastructure for Federal Government agencies and Fortune 1000 organizations alike. This gives us unique insights into how to plan and manage complex projects like this and deliver them on-time and on-budget.
Is your organization rolling out new technologies and applications to your branch network? If it is, give us a call – there's a lot to talk about!

"School days, school days, good, old Golden Rule days..." They're ALMOST over--in the USA--for a lesson-free summer (unless you count summer school, swimming lessons, camp, etc!)! In September kids will hop on buses with backpacks and lunch boxes and--if there's a big project, YOU'RE off in your car to school too to deliver the project (remember those days??) It can leave you in a daze as you try to juggle it all as a parent--or teacher! God bless our teachers--and remember, a few more days and they'll all be coming home to MOM! (Happy Mother's Day - grin!!)
Well, God's got a school too--and sometimes we end up in a DAZE trying to matriculate through the classes He has designed for us. Now the lunch at His table is good--the recess and fellowship is fun--but sometimes the classes are pretty tough!
That's where the armor of a knight comes in...for when He sends us out on the fighting fields of our world, it's not arm wrestling in a play gym--it's real wrestling in a real world, and we need every piece of God's armor to pass the spiritual fitness test and face the foe! Days and nights in God's classroom of life are a challenge...but with God's grace, we will pass the courses with flying colors!
You're about to enjoy a week of classes in God's school room, via Peggie's Place. Hope you enjoy the "ABC" links below--please visit a day at a time--and may something you learn in the classroom help you through the DAZE and KNIGHT times that you face out in the real world!

Wife of Jewish Millionaire: Am I A Widow Or An Abandoned Wife ?
The wife of missing millionaire Guma Aguiar, who vanished after steering his motorboat through Port Everglades on a night-time cruise six months ago, tells how she is struggling through the holidays with their four children.
'It's a very difficult time,' said Jamie Aguiar, 33, of Rio Vista Isles, Florida. 'I try and count our blessings every single day and try and think of what I'm grateful for.'
Police are still unsure whether Mrs Aguiar is now a widow or an abandoned wife who will have to continue fighting his legal battles without him since it takes five years to be legally declared dead in Florida.
Her blessings include the couple's daughter and three sons, ages 15 months to 7 years, she said.
Ms. Aguiar said she is 'thankful that they have their health. We have food on the table. I just keep reminding myself of that.'
Despite her husband's absence, the family has continued their holiday routines, the Orlando Sentinel reports.
'We do both Christmas and Hanukkah, just as I always have,' she told the local newspaper.
'We have a Christmas tree and I celebrate with the children and light the menorah, too. It's a really special tradition this time of year.'
Her 35-year-old Brazilian-born husband disappeared on June 19.
The family's legal battles include lawsuits with an uncle over profits from a company sale as well as lawsuits against Mr Aguiar's siblings and mother over the ownership of real estate in Israel.
The couple's $5 million dollar mansion, Lazzara yacht and the motorboat that washed ashore without Mr Aguiar have been put on the market and all remain unsold.
During the couple's often tumultuous marriage, Mr Aguiar was committed to a hospital for mental health-related reasons, sued his wife for divorce and later withdrew that petition.
He was on probation for domestic violence when he disappeared.
Mrs Aguiar last April sought a judge's opinion on whether their prenuptial agreement was fraudulent.
For now she is focusing on giving her kids a good holiday season, and keeping those blessings in mind, according to the Sentinel.
'I have to do that multiple times each day, when things aren't looking so good. That's how I get through the day,' she said.
Last month, lawyers for Jamie Aguiar implied that they believe her husband may still be alive and well – and hiding out in the Netherlands.
They are speculating that Mr Aguiar could have faked his own death to avoid losing his $100 million fortune.
An attorney for the man's wife has told reporters that the missing man's sister intends to move to the Netherlands, raising suspicion that she could be planning to rejoin her brother, who could have relocated to Europe.
Willliam Scherer, an attorney for Jamie Aguiar, told WPLG-TV that they believe Aguiar's sister, Angelika, plans to move to the Netherlands or could already be living there.
A close business associate of Aguiar also resides in the Netherlands, the lawyer added.
The multi-millionaire had reportedly argued with his wife, when she is said to have threatened him with a divorce, hours before he disappeared.
A lawyer for Guma Aguiar's mother Ellen said the wealthy philanthropist was in low spirits when he went out on his boat that fateful Tuesday in June, after receiving the blow from Jamie.
Mr Aguiar, a father of four, had filed for divorce last July but did not go through with it.
The 35-year-old man had spoken with his mother, Ellen Aguiar, an hour before he got on to his 31-foot boat, the T.T. Zion, and sailed off on June 19.
In addition to battling with her son's wife for control of his estimated $100 million fortune, Aguiar's mother hopes that her son may still be alive.
In a petition filed to a Florida court to seize his fortune, Ellen Aguiar stated that her son 'may be in a delusional state or be suffering from psychosis or otherwise may have disappeared.'
His mother, Ellen Aguiar, alleged that her son's $100 million estate would be squandered by his wife.
His home in Fort Lauderdale is valued at $5 million, he has seven cars valued at $1.1million, and a yacht that is valued at $2.1million, according to Mrs Aguiar's petition.

Along with Apple's introduction of the iPad Air 2 comes a new take on the lowly SIM card. Not only does the tablet ship with just about every LTE band and frequency one could want, the hardware is delivered preloaded with an agnostic SIM for network authentication. As T-Mobile's CEO tweets:
1/ The Apple SIM, as conceived, was about giving customers ability to choose which carrier they wanted
— John Legere (@JohnLegere) October 25, 2014
So the Apple SIM theoretically saves Apple some packaging expenses and provides us, the end users, with amazing flexibility – buy the iPad and choose whichever carrier we want at any point after we get it home. And, down the road, we'd be free to flip carriers as coverage or pricing changes. It's a grand, consumer friendly vision. However, the future hasn't quite arrived. Due, once again, to short-sighted carrier protectionism (and technical glitches). Continue Reading…

Losing weight too fast after giving birth
Hi all,
I'm a little concerned with the weight that I'm losing after having my baby. I gained 48 pounds with the pregnancy and I was about 30 pounds overweight before getting pregnant. I had her on February 6th so its only been 3 and a half weeks but I've already lost 27 pounds. I'm loosely following Weight Watchers to help keep from gaining more weight like I did with my first daughter but I'm adding extra calories every day since I'm breastfeeding. Also, I cut out soda completely. I'm not doing any significant exercise other than housework and running after a preschooler. It just makes me nervous how quickly I'm losing the weight. I was expecting to have to dig in a make a concerted effort like I did after the first one. I want to lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way and I'm worried that this fast weight loss will have adverse effects on my health. Has anyone else had any experience with this?
I gained about the same amount as you with my pregnancy and was also 30 pounds overweight before I got pregnant! I lost most of the pregnancy weight without trying at all in the first 2-3 months of breastfeeding, but the other 30 pounds I had to finally dig in a year after my son's birth to get rid of. I would say what you have lost is pretty normal, based on my experience anyway!
Good luck with your journey! And congratulations on your daughter!
Why is that a problem?
I was about 20 lbs overweight and gained 25 lbs with my first child. I lost 29 lbs between giving birth and leaving the hospital. My doctor didn't think there was anything wrong with it. In fact, over the next few months (while breast-feeding my son) I lost down to 25 lbs below my pre-pregnant weight. My doctor was very happy with the weight loss.
One of the things about breast-feeding is that it allows you to eat a little more (healthy foods), but still lose weight. Our bodies are designed that way.
Of course, with my second baby, everything changed. :p
My mom got skinny too after giving birth to our youngest sibling. She keep it by eating the right diet.
I lost about 30 pounds in three weeks after my first was born most of it was water weight but after that I just as quickly gained it all back.
Science ;)
So breast feeding requires a TON of calories, so if you are doing things the same but breast feeding, you're probably just fine. But still, I'm no doctor :)
Do you watch Desperate Housewives? There is an episode where Lynette goes back to work and a REALLY fit mom is breast feeding a 5 year old (I think?) and she thought it was gross. She tricked the kid into drinking cow milk and the mom got pissed cause she gained weight. Kinda funny :)

The Finance Minister Mr. Arun Jaitley presented Union Budget 2016 in the Lok Sabha on 29th February 2016.
Based on initial responses, the budget has got mixed reviews from finance experts. Some of them have said the budget is not middle-class friendly and puts more money in the pockets of the rich. However, the budget's focus on the rural Indian population has been appreciated by many experts. To put the Budget 2016 in perspective, here's a quick rundown on how the union budget will affect your personal budget.
1) Cars are costlier: If buying a car is in your to-do list for this year, the budget doesn't have good news for you. With the Finance Minister announcing a 1% cess on LPG, CNG and other cars, the prices of all cars are bound to go high. There's an additional tax of 1% on cars costing above 10 lacs.
2) Eating out and Entertainment becomes costlier: The increase in service tax to 15% (from 14.5%) makes eating out and entertainment even more expensive. Up till now, we were paying 14.5% of service tax, wherein 0.5% was Swach Bharat cess). Now, with the introduction of Krishi Kalyan cess of 0.5%, which comes into effect from June 1, 2016, the leisure budgets of households will increase even further. It would now be 14% (service tax) 0.5% (swach bharat cess) 0.5% (Krishi kalyan cess) = 15%.
3) Cigarettes become costlier: No surprises here as this one has almost become a routine for all budgets. Continuing the legacy of his predecessors, the FM has increased taxes on cigarettes. With the new changes, the cost of cigarettes is expected to go up by 8-9%.
4) Cheers for first time home buyers: First-time home buyers will now get an additional deduction of Rs. 50,000 on interest for loans up to Rs. 35 lakh, provided the cost of their house is not more than Rs 50 lakh. Further, people who don't own a house and don't get any type of house rent allowance (HRA) from their employer will now be eligible to get a relief of Rs. 60,000 per year under section 80GG, up from Rs. 24,000.
5) Great news for people with incomes less than Rs. 5 lakhs: To lessen the financial burden on people whose annual income is less than INR 5 Lakhs per annum, Mr. Jaitley announced an increase of the tax rebate under Sec 87A of IT Act to Rs. 5,000 from Rs. 2,000. This essentially means that where these individuals were only eligible for a tax rebate up to Rs. 2,000, this can now be up to Rs. 5,000, so they pay less tax. Mr. Jaitley said around 2 crore tax payers would get a relief of Rs 3,000.
6) Internet Routers and TV set-up boxes will become cheaper: Keeping in line with the government's digital India vision, routers, broadband modems, set top boxes, digital video recorders and CCTV cameras are all set to become cheaper than before.
7) Branded Clothes become costlier: Budget 2016 will make looking fashionable and stylish a costlier affair. In the budget, the Finance Minister has announced a 2% excise duty on branded readymade garments and made-up textile articles priced above Rs. 1,000.
8) Bad News for jewellery lovers: Buying jewelry now will dig a deeper hole in your pocket than it used to before with a 1% excise duty on gold and diamond jewelry. Furthermore, beauty parlor trips are also all set to cost more now.
9) Air Travel becomes dearer: The excise duty on Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) has been increased to 14% (from 8%), which will make air travel costlier than before.
10) PPF to remain tax-exempt, but EPF interest to attract tax payments: The Budget 2016 has made 60% of interest earned on employee-contributed EPF corpus taxable, for all contributions made by employees after 1st April, 2016. Till now, withdrawal of interest on EPF corpus after 5 years of continuous service was fully tax exempt. The new provisions indicate that if the EPF is not used for buying an annuity then 60% of the interest earned on that portion of the corpus which is built from the employee contributions made after 1st April, 2016, would be taxable.
Other items that will become expensive post Budget 2016 are:

Queen answers Irish bid to turn Buckingham Palace green
Irish tourism chiefs who asked the Queen for a Saint Patrick's Day favour have received their answer.
They had asked the monarch to turn Buckingham Palace emerald green on the Irish national holiday.
The request is part of a campaign which sees some of world's landmarks, including the Sydney Opera House and the pyramids, turn green on 17 March.
However, the Queen has decided not to give permission for a change of colour for her official London residence.
Niall Gibbons, chief executive of Tourism Ireland, said the organisation had received a "lovely letter" from Buckingham Palace.
"Her Majesty has sent 'good wishes to all those in Tourism Ireland working hard to promote the many attractions of Ireland north and south'," Mr Gibbons said on Twitter.
"While not lighting green on 17 March, the Queen's 'special affection for Ireland' (was) noted."
Global landmarks that are going green on 17 March include Niagara Falls, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Burj al Arab in Dubai, Table Mountain in South Africa, New York's Empire State Building and Berlin's TV Tower.

He is 6 and memorizing Psalm 23. He is working so hard. Each night he labors over these verses. I heard them 100 times (at least!). Honestly, the words have lost their meaning to me. To this mom, it has become more about getting it memorized than connecting with God.
He recites, ".....He restores my soul..."
I began to think, "that's what I need. A full restoration."
He continues, "...surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life."
Then it hits me with shame; I do not believe this to be true.
How many times do I want to change this verse to say,
"surely comfort and security"
"surely approval and recognition,"
Goodness and love is what we are promised. Tomorrow is uncertain. Security is fleeting, but a God who restores, who comforts, who protects, who loves. This is what I cling to today.

"Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful."
–William Morris
(Virtually shaking your hand)
My name is Jessica and I'm an interior designer, stylist, and lifestyle & travel blogger located in Boston, MA. I am a proud wife to a talented landscape architect, a mom to a daughter named Evie and a rescue dog named Bella. There are few days you will find me without a smile on my face and a coffee in hand. I'm an obsessive "de-clutter-er" and a collector of matchbooks and natural skin care products.
A few facts:
- I was born & raised in Oklahoma City and spent a few years in San Diego, CA before relocating to Boston, MA.
- I received my Bachelor of Science Degree with an Interior Design focus from Oklahoma State University.
- If I could eat one thing for the rest of my life it would be shabu shabu (hot pot) or chips and queso.
- A few of my favorite things: new notebooks/planners, fresh flowers, cute dog videos, chai tea lattes, scandinavian design, exploring the different neighborhoods of Boston, flea markets, traveling, organizing, a glass of red wine, and trying new skin care products.
About The Studio
Oh, I Design is a creative studio focusing on residential interior design, boutique commercial design, styling, e-design and organization.
More than ever, we all need places that make us feel secure, happy and like ourselves. I believe it's more about quality than quantity. It's about having less "stuff". It's about finding the perfect balance of functionality and aesthetics. It's about surrounding ourselves with furniture and decor that we love and not following all the trends.
Hiring a designer can be overwhelming, I get it. There are so many options and too many "rules" to follow. But one thing is certain: you can absolutely love the home you live in and I can show you how.
About the Blog
Oh, I Design Blog was established in 2011, during a move from Oklahoma to San Diego, CA. It was intended to be an outlet to connect with family and friends back home and a place where I could post design ideas and inspiration. Since then, it has become one of the leading resources for all things design and lifestyle in New England.
We have been proud partners to incredible brands such as Legrand, Lark Hotels, Toyota, Flor, Artifact Uprising, Framebridge, and many more!
