March Madness & Magazines: Life Lately & Monday Musings

March 12, 2018

It’s been a crazy couple of weeks both professionally and personally. I’ve tried a couple times now to sit down and write about real life for Friday Favorites and admittedly kept putting it off. Honestly, I didn’t feel like I had a grasp on my feelings and I haaaaate putting pen to paper, metaphorically speaking, before I’ve fully grasped on everything. Keep reading today’s Monday Musings for more behind the scenes and some personal talk.

I’ve gotten a TON of new makeup in the past month or so and in an effort to prepare for a big beauty post, I’ve been digging through old favorites and working my way through a ton of new products. I’m due to write a “new beauty” type post to review some new items, but I’ve been thinking about writing a post about destashing and some of the products I haven’t loved. What do y’all think?

Networking in Real Life: Personal Branding & What Not to Post

March 8, 2018

Let me start by saying, happy International Women’s Day! I hope you’ll take the time today to think about the women in your life that inspire you & be sure to let them know. Onto blogging — One of the questions I’ve been getting a ton lately is how I nabbed a feature in Southern Living Magazine. It’s a great question but the answer is pretty simple; it was all networking. This topic can be intimidating for many so I wanted to share some of the things I’ve learned about personal branding and social media etiquette when it comes to networking. Be sure to keep reading because I’ll also share some real life examples!

How to Impact Young Women: Being Active as a Sorority Alumna

March 5, 2018

Happy Monday! Today’s post is a little different than my usual, but in honor of it being International Badge Day for sorority women, I wanted to talk about why I’m actively involved with my sorority, Sigma Kappa, as an alumna & how grateful I am for the opportunity to impact young women. Bonus: I’m showing off an outfit that’s appropriate badge attire too {for my non Greek friends, that just means its business meeting appropriate!}
