When I have a hard time deciding what to wear I usually look in my closet and find something black . Let’s face it: black is easy and slimming, which is a thumbs up in my book!…
Bora Bora and Moorea: Paradise on a Budget
Since having kids, my husband and I don’t get much time away. So, about every five years or so we plan a trip and leave our wee ones at home with an auntie or grandma. Since we only do this once every so often (usually on an anniversary) we really want to make our trips count.
For our 15 year anniversary we decided Bora Bora was the place. It was on both of our bucket lists. Bora Bora is not the easiest place to get to nor is it affordable. This trip took some time, budgeting, and careful planning to make it work. Below, I will tell you how we were able to have our dream vacation and still stay on a budget.

Let me preface this by saying … Italy starts their summer sales on the first Saturday of July and they run through the beginning of September. As you may well know, I have a LOVE (OK, more like an OBSESSION) for shoes, so of course I was on the hunt for some amazing designer shoes at a lower price than what I could find back in the States.

Cinequest Film Festival Opening Night 2018
Cinequest Film and VR Festival 2018
We loved covering the red carpet for opening night of the festival with William H. Macy, who directed the film “KRYSTAL.” The movie was about a young man named Tyler Ogburn and how his heart condition holds him back from doing all things normal. (college, sports, and love) Things change once he meets Krystal, an ex stripper and recovering alcoholic with whom he starts an unlikely love affair….
Rompers and Jumpsuits – Yes Please!
When I first saw all the rompers and jumpsuits in stores a year or two ago I thought, “No, absolutely not for me.” I just assumed, being 5’11, they would just not fit quite right or they would feel too short. I tried one on just to see and that solidified my opinion. Nope! It’s just not going to happen!
