The internet is going crazy over the lavender skort Taylor Swift wore in a teaser video for her new album. Surprisingly, I’d seen this skort before and even considered buying one for myself. So I took this as my sign to see what the hype is all about.  To no surprise, Swiftie or not, everyone is searching for this skirt. The brand, Popflex, and designer, Cassey Ho (@blogilates) are ecstatic (rightfully so!) to be the new viral sensation.  And I’m not usually one to follow celebrity fashion, but I love athleisure! Especially now that I’m back in Texas, I’ve already bought into the...…The internet is going crazy over the lavender skort Taylor Swift wore in a teaser video for her new album.

I hate shaving my arms. And my legs. And my bikini line. I remember when I was around 11 or 12, there was a summer day when I was sitting outside with my little sister who pointed out my newly hairy legs and I was immediately annoyed when I realized I actually had to shave them for the rest of my life.  Well, I know now that don’t have to, but I prefer to. Societal norms got me here,  ya’ll. A few years ago I did a lot of testing of the best razors on the market (I’m a Billie razor gal, in case you’re wondering) but I still find myself Google laser hair removal treatments on...…I hate shaving my arms.

California is the most beautiful and versatile state for a girls getaway trip. I’m biased, of course, because I’m based in San Francisco, and therefore been on endless girls trips in California. It’s just too easy! You don’t have to worry about long travel days, and focus more on spending time with your girls. With every type of terrain from mountain and beach towns to desert escapes and thriving cities, you can find the perfect place for your gals to getaway!  No matter the season, there are plenty of fun activities! Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie who loves water sports or an...…California is the most beautiful and versatile state for a girls getaway trip.

There’s so many fantastic things to do in Borrego Springs and the Anza Borrego Desert State Park, that I’m kicking myself that it took myself almost a decade to get down to this slice of Southern California.  Easily overlooked for Palm Springs and Joshua Tree, Borrego Springs is a quirky little desert town just under 2 hours drive from San Diego. It’s filled with some of the most jaw dropping desert landscapes, beautiful wildflower blooms in spring, endless starry nights without light pollution, and hidden gems like a giant dragon metal sculpture that feels like it was plucked from...…There’s so many fantastic things to do in Borrego Springs and the Anza Borrego Desert State Park, that I’m kicking myself that it took myself almost a decade to get down to this slice of Southern California.  Easily overlooked for Palm Springs and Joshua Tree, Borrego Springs is a quirky little desert town just under 2 hours drive from San Diego.

Raise your hand if you’re simply *over* your esthetician trying to upsell you on a very expensive 15 minutes of red light therapy during facials?  After a lot of researching for at home red light therapy tools, I landed on the Solawave 4-in-1 Red Light Therapy Skincare Wand and used it for 3 months before sitting down to write this review for you. This little device is pretty nifty, and now I get to tell my esthetician “Nah babe, I use red light at home I’m good!”  Kara's Pick SolaWave 4-in-1 Red Light...…Raise your hand if you’re simply *over* your esthetician trying to upsell you on a very expensive 15 minutes of red light therapy during facials?  After a lot of researching for at home red light therapy tools, I landed on the Solawave 4-in-1 Red Light Therapy Skincare Wand and used it for 3 months before sitting down to write this review for you.
