Milk Makeup

This relatively new makeup line is so fresh and fun, you might call it whimsical! I have tried quite a few of their products and love them all, especially the Kush Mascara $24.

My paternal grandparents, Janet & Harold, had an evening tradition that lasted for over 20 years– they played backgammon every night with their cocktails.

Some summer favorites to try

Summer for me means the beach, road trips, my birthday…and rosé. After weeks of creating this blog and writing these posts, it’s finally time to celebrate the launch of WHIT & WHIMSY (plus, it’s my birthday this weekend).
