I can hardly believe we just had one of the best British summers in ages, yet I spent most of it cooped up in my office, staring at a computer screen! It's now over, and I barely experienced it. On the bright side, I'm really excited about the arrival of autumn. It's definitely the easiest…
I thought I was done with my sales posts and shopping, but then an email popped into my inbox that I couldn't resist. It was from Net-a-Porter about their "further reductions," which is usually when I make my best purchases. I'm not sure how well I did this time—I'll know when everything arrives. The last…
Yesterday marked a bit of a milestone for me: I actually wore real clothes. Not pajamas, leggings, or tracksuit bottoms with loose elastic, but actual, non-maternity clothing. Well, I should admit the jeans were still maternity jeans, but you wouldn't know it—they're Paige Verdugo, and the only difference is a small, discreet elastic bit in…
Last week, I shared my new white stilettos from Topshop. Now, I've found a similar pair on ASOS for less than half the price. I can't speak for the quality since I haven't seen the ASOS pair in person, and they're not leather, which might be an issue for some, including me. But if you're…
Imagine how thrilled I was when the womenswear brand Me + Em sent me this fantastic georgette maxi dress. It perfectly blends two things I love: dark floral patterns and sporty side stripes. It's almost as if I designed it myself in a daydream.
Turning a tracksuit into a sheer-sleeved georgette maxi dress isn't something you…
I can't wait for you to check out Polaroid's new Heritage Collection coming out at the end of this month! Celebrating their 75th anniversary, Polaroid has brought back some of their most iconic designs with gorgeous frames. Sometimes when brands revisit vintage styles, it can come off as cheesy, but Polaroid has nailed it. I'm…
I've got to catch up on my foundation reviews because I'm really behind. I sometimes get bogged down with too much detail and start comparing one foundation to another. Before I know it, I'm wearing two different foundations on each side of my face, and by the time I've finished, a year has gone by,…
I've been doing some shopping, which can be pretty risky. Honestly, I return a lot of what I purchase: out of every twenty things I order online (much to the dismay of Mr. AMR, who has to navigate around piles of ASOS bags and shoe boxes for weeks), I only keep one or two items.…
Do you remember the time I accidentally hit myself in the face with a big tree? It wasn’t exactly a proud moment; I nearly lost an eye, and I jokingly tell myself that my kids are probably scarred for life. Honestly, they didn’t even look up from their iPads when I yelled “GET DADDY!” I…
So, here's the scoop: I've been using the Flower Beauty Light Illusion Foundation daily for the past two weeks, and I have to say, it's pretty impressive. The only reason I’m not wearing it right now is that I was traveling and needed to keep my makeup bag light—my laptop alone is heavy enough. The…
