I honestly love a green smoothie. I really like any smoothie, but there is something about a green smoothie that makes me feel extra nourished. I have been making smoothies since college, and have gone through a lot of trial and error to what I like in them. I try to keep it simple, and not add any extra sweeteners, or things like that because I have found that it makes your smoothie taste artificially sweet. The fruit you add will sweeten up nicely! I also have a disclaimer in that I have never really measured anything as I make my smoothies. Eyeballing works well because it is all about what you like, and how you like it to taste! I included two nut butters because I just picked up the peanut butter with flax and chia seeds from TJ's, and its so yummy, and I had to share!  Green smoothie ingredients: - GREENS! --I use what ever I have= kale, spinach, frozen, etc. I like a lot, so its super green! - Frozen pineapple - Frozen grated ginger - I get this at Trader Joe's! ...

Happy Sunday, friends! Gingham season is upon us. I have seen SO MANY cute things in my favorite print this year!! I had to do a quick little post to share these because, OMG, I am obsessed! Not that I need any more gingham...😉 Gingham jacket Gingham cardigan Gingham sneakers Gingham dress Gingham headband Gingham set: top + bottoms As always, #dontforgetyourpearls

Whenever I am asked to give a fun fact about myself, I know I have a good and shocking one: I do NOT have my ears pierced! Yep, you're shocked, lol. Everyone is always surprised about this factoid because I love style and fashion so much that people assume I have my ears pierced!  In the past year, I think there has been movement towards making more clip-on styles of earrings. I always thought that I would just never be into earrings until some really cute designs of clip-ons came out. I have a couple of pairs, and would love to expand my collection. Today, I have rounded up a few places that have some v cute clip-on options! Also, are there any other fellow non-ears-pierced gals out there?? And, are there any other brands that have great clip-on earrings?? Sweet and Spark // I look at their website almost daily to awe over their big collection of vintage designer clip-on earrings (and bag and more!!), and their own collection of earrings designed by one of their found...

Happy week of Galentine's (or Valentine's) day! I really like to take this week to celebrate the awesome women in my life. I have so many great ones 💖. I have put together a little guide as to what you could get your Galentine, but sometimes the simple gift of a phone call or sweet card is enough to someone you care about them! {If you are significant other of a Valentine, then you are also in the right place!} Silk Scrunchies:  I gave these to my mom for Christmas, and she is obsessed with them. I have used one a few times, and I understand the luxury hair tie life. It keeps your hair in place, does not pull on your hair, and best of all, does NOT leave a crease!! Pink Lip balm:  I love this shade of pink from NARS, and they make it in all sorts of products now, like this lip balm. I tried it in store, and I loved the fun color while nourishing your lips! I think every gal likes a little make up gift! Pajamas:  I have the two piece bow-print set of these j...

Coat   |   Boots   |   Dress Coat  |   Boots  |   Dress   I was not sure about this coat when it first came out, but then I got to see it in person at the Margaux x Gal Meets Glam event in NYC , and thought it was the chicest take on a classic trench. The embroidered florals make it perfect all year round, but I have been loving this pop of color in winter. The trench has a quilted lining, and is quite warm! ( I would say that it is better for "warmer" winter days for me, because I am perpetually chilled.) The coat is on major sale on GMGC (its linked, don't worry) for under $150 (original price was over $350, so its a HUGE mark down!!). Also, since when did I become trendy girl with a love for headbands, and OTK boots ?!? I saw these were on sale at Nordstrom (still are!), and I was like, whelp, those are coming home with me. This brand of boots is made to be *waterproof*. I feel like it will be a ...

Sharing a picture from vacation because spending the first two weeks of the year in FL was one of my faves! How is it the END of January?! ( I definitely almost wrote end of February, and was like girl pump the brakes 😂.) The end of the month does mean another edition of my favorites! I love writing these kinds of posts, and watching favorites videos on YouTube. Anyone else relate?  Yeti Tumbler  // My mom wanted this for some holiday last year, but always forgets to use it! I decided that I would make good use out of it, and gifted it to me, haha. And, I LOVE it!! One of my goals is to not use single-use coffee cups this year. If I am going out and about I make sure to have this with me if I feel I will want a little pick me up! The tumbler keeps the coffee warm all day, too so it has been nice to have something warm while I am back in the tundra of MN for a bit! Dudley Stephens boatneck fleece // I think it is clear that I have a love or obsession with thes...

Welcome back to PWP! I took a bit of an unexpected break due to an extended vacation, but am getting back at it! I felt like a great "first" post back in the new year would be to chat about some goals, but notice how I did not title this 2020 goals/resolutions. I used the word Intentions because it has a better connotation to me; it feels less pressured and less negative. I am all about creating a happy mind and physical space, so saying intentions cast a better light on things I want to accomplish! 1. Sustainability- Last year, I really focused on not buying plastic water bottles, and being better about reusable straws and bags. I feel like I was successful here, so I want to continue doing this, and add to not use single use coffee cups; I have already been killing this one, this month, and have gone out for coffee many times, and always had my own mug!! Other things I have thoughts about to better sustainability: make less waste, use less paper towels, use less...
