Top 5 Gifts for Mother's Day 2016

5.05.2016

Mother's Day is right around the corner and here are 5 last minute gift ideas...

I've partnered up with The Shops at Mission Viejo to help you find the perfect Mother's Day gift for any mom out there! See below for great gift giving ideas all available at The Shops at Mission Viejo

1) L'Occitane hand cream set ($28). This brand is known worldwide and their hand creams are their #1 best seller (it's so good that 1 is sold every 3 seconds!) and portable so you can have them everywhere. They also come in a variety of scents and right now they have specials going on for select packages. Plus? They're made with natural ingredients that'll make you instantly fall in love with brand in no time. 

2) Papyrus card (under $10). If you're looking for something thoughtful, giving a Mother's Day card is the way to go. There's nothing like a sweet, handwritten message to someone you care about. A little really does go a long way and sometimes it's more than enough.

3) Terranium plants (prices vary). For the more craftier moms, these little plants will put a smile on their face. I mean, aren't they so cute?! They come in different sizes and some even have succulents in them. A bonus? They're low maintenance which makes it easy for anyone to take care of.

4) Nordstrom's home decor (prices vary). Sparkle up a room with a unique piece meant just for your mom. What's so fun about holidays is checking out the crafts department and seeing what cool new things they come up with. This little I love you mom jewelry plate is simple yet creative for the moms who love accessories.

5) CK One lotion (under $30). When you know what your mom likes, get it every time. Every Mother's Day, the boyfriend and I get his mom this CK One lotion that she loves. She never asks for anything else except for this which makes it oh-so-easy for us! Of course, we like to throw in extra things here and there but she's more than happy with her favorite CK One lotion. Hey, if it works, don't fix it right? 

It was a fun day exploring the mall and we finished our Mother's Day gift in one shop!

REVIEW :: Elements Massage, Costa Mesa

3.17.2014

A couple weeks ago I had the absolute pleasure to experience Elements Massage in Costa Mesa. If you know me, then you know I've gotten p-l-e-n-t-y of massages before (yes) but none like this - serious! It wasn't your typical one-size-fits-all type of place and that's what I really liked about it. Instead, they applied a different type of massage approach that's personally catered just for you...

SNEAK PEEK :: Structured Pieces

12.16.2013


Oh man, it's been a couple crazy busy days! It's the last week of finals for my last fall semester of grad school and I've been booked back-to-back with events. Throw on the birthday celebrations and holiday parties, it's one of the busiest years yet. No lie. I literally pulled an all-nighter Thursday. Worked on Friday, then went to my little sister's RN graduation (congrats to my poopoobear!), finished my 10 page paper (due by midnight), and made it on time to catch the party bus that very night. Talk about making the impossible, possible right? Now I just have one more paper to finish and then I can finally be on winter break...

In the mean time, enjoy this mini preview of my next outfit post for this week's Tuesday Trend. I know, it's been awhile, so can't wait to finally share the full look with you. Hope you're having a great start to the week and enjoying these last few days of 2013!
