Are You “Feminine” Enough?
You might ask, "feminine enough for who?" When I wrote about this on my social media, it got one of the largest responses ever, so I wanted to share the story behind it. I wrote that I've always had a fantasy about being a full time wife and mother. I know that may...
Anti-Aging Body Skin Care Favorites
Does this photo look familiar? I bet you have a similar one, showing off that teen-age tan. If you're like me, you spent way too much time in the sun in your life. As a teen-ager, I remember slathering myself with baby oil and then baking in the sun for hours to get...
Snow Day Personal Thoughts
As we recover from snow and ice and no power and boiling water....I want to share something of lesser importance, but more personal. These photos were snapped the day most of us had power in our homes again and the snow had finally begun to melt, and it felt like we...
Mixing Vintage & Modern in my Home
I love mixing vintage and modern pieces in my home because it keeps the look "fresh" instead of dated. When I moved into my new Dallas home there were pieces like the beautiful 18th century Italian dining table I wanted to use, but in a new way. I always thought the...
My Crossroads
I came to a crossroads in the past year... - Like most of us, I've wanted more self love all my life. Like a lot of women, instead of loving myself, I made a habit of getting my sense of worth from my work, my parenting (which puts way too much pressure on the child...
Latest Cosmetic Procedure I’m Loving
I like to try any new beauty product of treatment before I recommend it so I waited until I had seen results tell you about this, but I've got to share it with you! I won't ever say "never", but I've always been extremely conservative with any cosmetic procedures...
My Vintage Shopping Secrets
I'm seeing "shop vintage" everywhere in 2021! I've always enjoyed vintage pieces in my wardrobe, and my home, but now, vintage is the hottest trend going; a new article in Vogue says resale & vintage sales were up 27% last year. A fabulous shop for vintage...
MY DAD AND ME
This is one of my favorite pictures of me and my Dad.... And here's another, a few years later, when my Dad (who is 86) had come by to show off his snazzy new Tesla! Growing up, I was lucky to have a Dad who was always curious about what was next or new in the world....
LOVING MY NEW BEDROOM LOOK!
I love making things pretty, and I wanted this bedroom to be pretty, classic and fresh. I fell in love with these beautiful D.Porthault linens at Linen Boutique on Lovers Lane and that's where we started. I've worked with my friend and designer Ken Blasingame for more...
BOTOX OR NOT?
That's my beautiful co-host Alanna, half my age... She's beautiful on the inside too, and I feel fortunate that we are a team! Photographers, like the one who shot this picture, can make everyone look young and youthful these days. But because I make my living under...
MINILUXE NAILS IT
I recently did a Girls Night Out segment for Good Morning Texas ... with my bestie Cynthia Smoot from Oh So Cynthia. One of her fun picks was to get a mani/pedi with a gal pal, so we shot the segment from a luxury nail studio that is new to the Dallas-area called...
