Be Beautiful. Be Brave. Be Smart.
If you live in Richmond and have seen a girl rocking a bob of blonde curls, vintage cowgirl boots, and a "bo-ho mono", it was probably Libbie. If you've seen this girl rummaging around in a dumpster...then it was definitely Libbie. Libbie is hard to miss. She and I first met when we worked together [...]
Right now, most of us are stuck in some kind of quarantine. With a lot less going on "out there", we've been living more sedentary lives. We've also been forced to spend a little more time with our own thoughts doing some self-reflection. So, for most of us, looking the mirror isn't exactly a pleasurable [...]
Picture it: Richmond, 2010… I’m in high school and my parents never have to worry where I am on an average Friday night. I’m cozied up in bed with popcorn and The Golden Girls.

Fine dining was always something I knew existed, but in the way outer space does. I know it's real, but would I ever see it in person? Probably not. Fine dining was for celebrities and Disney princesses, not me who was fresh out of college and working an entry-level marketing job. Nevertheless, as I spacewalked [...]
For me, cocktails are one of the ways I treat myself to life's little joys. Cocktails just give an evening a little extra va-va-voom. They're an excuse to maybe get a little dressed up, take some fun pictures, and imagine you're in a 1920's speakeasy. When I dropped out of gradschool and left my dream [...]
