style, stories & everything in between
so in the midst of the twins' stomach flu (i promise i'll stop talking about it, but it left such a lasting impact on me, lol), the holidays, and new year's, i was remiss in sharing my recent purchases for the month of december. to be honest, i didn't really buy that much (shocking, i ...
welp, #targetdoesitagain (they always do, don't they?!)! i just received this quilted bomber jacket in the mail this weekend and it's so good, it needed to be shared. on a recent solo target trip (see also: mini vacation), i stumbled upon this utility jacket during a quick perusal of the clothing department. on a whim, ...
after 18 long months, the rivera clan took a little vacation! all four of us + papa kurt and gogo just returned from four glorious days at la quinta resort in la quinta, california -also known to us as heaven on earth. we've been coming to the resort for YEARS (it was the site of ...
after hearing its praises sung by the internet and my current style muse and saie's creative director, geri hirsch, i finally got my hands on two products from the clean beauty brand with both a cult-like following and gorgeous branding, saie. thanks to their black friday sale, i nabbed their glowy super gel and dew ...
admittedly, i made quite a few black friday purchases this year. most of them were stocking up on products i love and use regularly at a discounted price (skincare, makeup, etc.), but a couple were impulse-ish buys that i prayed would work out. one said purchase was this dress from dissh, an australian brand owned, ...
i don't know if you know this but thanksgiving is TOMORROW. i know, i was shocked, too. i swear it snuck up on me this year. but then again, raising 18-month-old twins who never. stop. moving. will do that to you, right?! anyway, team rivera is very much looking forward to a full spread -including ...
welp, didn't realize i had ordered so much stuff this month until i took a moment to write it all down. whoopsies! in my defense, there were a lot of items that ended up in the "misses" category (per usual) and the things that i did end up keeping were most certainly purchased on sale. ...
well it looks like christmas black friday came early this year because madewell just announced that they are offering 30% off (typically their most generous discount of the year!) EVERYTHING* now through monday. just use code OHJOY at checkout. i definitely have about a dozen things idling in my online shopping cart at this current ...
well it's that time of year again --the time we gather up our family, dress everyone in coordinating outfits, and bribe our children to smile for the sake of at least one good snap to slap across a holiday template as this year's christmas card. the above photo is from last year's photoshoot (can you ...
this is a story about a girl named lucky who ordered then returned then ordered again (twice over) a little waffle-knit set from gap. the first time i ordered the thermal i couldn't quite justify keeping it since it was more of an impulse buy than anything. then i saw the matching joggers paired with ...
