Create + Cultivate

I had the BEST Mother's Day weekend! I was in Los Angeles for the weekend and even though I missed my Babies, I had a wonderful time at the Create + Cultivate Conference. I met some amazing people and made connections that will last a lifetime. ShopStyle Collective is a company that I work with and once I got an email saying they would be hosting this event I was on board, I knew I had to go... I was so excited to find out that the Key Note Speakers ended up being Jessica Alba, Rachel Zoe and Chelsea Handler. I mean really "pinch me now!" All three ladies are such great women entrepreneurs. I loved listening to each of them share their story. … [Read more...]

Milk Jar Cookies

  Cute as a button, is what comes to mind when I think of my "Sweet" friends Cookie Store! Last weekend,  I was in LA for a creative conference and I had to stop into this adorable Cookie Store.

Milk Jar Cookies offers a monthly subscription to their yummy cookies, this would make an awesome gift or something … [Read more...]

The Line

I was in California for the weekend! Downtown LA... I stayed at The Line Hotel. This super trendy boutique Hotel is right in the heart of LA, right on Wilshire Blvd. The Line has this roof top pool and rooftop restaurant. Super cool and really tranquil... I can't believe all the greenery they have on the roof top. Gorgeous! My room was so comfy and I loved the ceiling to floor window right at the foot of my bed. Definitely, staying here again. Thank you, The Line Hotel for having me. … [Read more...]

Serendipity in Vegas

This last weekend, Jason and I took a quick trip to Vegas. We went with our friends and had such a FUN time. Why is it so easy to stay up late night in Vegas but when I'm home I want to be in bed at 9pm? One thing on my bucket list was going to Serendipity and treating ourselves to frozen hot chocolates... Jason and I shared an amaretto almond and our friends shared a mint chocolate chip. Can I just say "yummy" I just had a couple sips because dairy makes my stomach ache. Hello, look at how much whipping cream was on these! Super fun and playful... I'm so glad we stopped by and I'm so glad we took this relaxing trip! Sometimes weekend trips … [Read more...]

Sprinkle Party

  My sweet friend came into town the other week from the East Coast. She was in Oregon for a Conference that she was speaking at. (cheer!) I was able to sneak her away for a little lunch and ice cream treat while she was in town. During lunch she says to me "What do you think I should get from your SHOP for a Sprinkle Party I'm hosting?" I reply... "What's a Sprinkle Party? Sounds FUN!" She explained to me that a "Sprinkle Party" is like a baby shower! I hadn't ever heard of it called that... So cute! Well, of course I could help her... She told me the color theme and above is what I came up with. You can find all these FUN goodies on … [Read more...]
