I love the winter holidays, which is strange because I am 100% a heat-loving summer baby. But the cheer and good will in the air, the sparkly decorations, and the excuse to drape absolutely everything in my home with greenery makes me very, very happy. You all know that I try to live as sustainably as possible, so I do often get the question during the winter months why I choose to use so much live greenery in my home and decorations when I could purchase ‘reusable’ decorations to use year after ...

The Necessity of Versatility with adidas #Sponsored
This pandemic has changed a lot of things- from how we interact to how we work and shop and play and everything in between. For me, this puts even more of an emphasis on versatility in my daily life.

Creating a Home- Urban Jungle Living Room Makeover

I honestly don’t think I could tell you how many schools I went to over the years, or how many houses I’ve lived in without consulting my family. It was normal to me to always be the new kid and to never get attached to a house because I knew I would be leaving. It sounds sad, but it really wasn’t. It’s made me into the person I am today; I’m highly adaptable, I can make myself feel comfortable anywhere, and it shaped the way ... Read More about Creating a Home- Urban Jungle Living Room Makeover
