I’ve always been an old soul, but I swear my twenty-something self is truly embodying an 80-year-old now more than ever before thanks to quarantining/social distancing. Meet Grandma Ky. 👵🏼 Hobbies include: candle making, searching for vintage decor, painting, reading and gardening. 🕯🌿 Most likely: snuggled in bed with coffee, crafting, cooking or baking. ☕️🎨🥧 Frequently found: thrift shopping, at Michaels or Target, at home and happy, and certainly not near any big groups. 🙈 24 going on 84.

Long weekend vibes. 🤍 Heading out on a mini roa

Long weekend vibes. 🤍 Heading out on a mini road trip to Wisconsin for a socially distant lunch with my Grandpa to kick off the weekend. Then I’m back to Champaign to wrap up the weekend with Ilir and stay for a whileee! Love pretending I live with you @coachemini 😉 What are your weekend plans?! Are you shopping any Labor Day Sales?🤍 Sunnies: @diffeyewear #diffeyewear #diffpartner

When the world starts to flip to fall but you’re over here soaking in every last second of summer. 🤍 Summer styles are always my favorite, and I’ll certainly be holding onto them until the bitter end. 🙌🏼

Enjoying a relaxing week with @coachemini in Champaign. Back to suitcase living! 🧳 On the docket for this evening: taco night 🌮 getting so fresh air on the porch 🌿 (peep my stories for a planter box update!) and a whole lot of @howtogetawaywithmurder 🍿 Kind of embarrassed to say we’re on season five... Wasn’t that like yesterday I shared we were just starting it? 🙈 @reddress #rdbabe

It’s happening! They’re here! IT’S FINALLY T

It’s happening! They’re here! IT’S FINALLY TIME! 🙌🏼 I am over the moon excited to finally share with you my very own Lightroom Mobile Bright and Airy Pastel PRESETS entirely for free over on the blog! 🤍

If you’ve ever downloaded bright and airy presets and felt disappointed by the results, today’s post is for you. 📷 After years of trial and error, I’ve tweaked and altered my presets time and time again, but even more importantly, I’ve also learned about all of the photography and editing steps that are essential for creating that beautiful bright and airy image and a cohesive grid you are dreaming of, outside of the preset itself!

Head on over to the link in my bio to grab my presets for FREE and read my TOP EDITING AND PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS that are key to creating a bright and airy photo. 🙌🏼 Because truthfully, bright and airy shots are a lot of work, a lot of steps, and a lot of key considerations when you’re capturing your shot — a preset will help you get close to your end goal, today’s post will get you all the way there! 📷

Head over to stories to see some before and after shots and over to the blog to check out my editing guide and presets! 🤍💕

One of my favorite parts of the day is always skincare time. 🤍 Just a few moments to slow down, unwind, and focus on myself. SO EXCITED to share I’ve finally rounded up a complete routine of my favorite clean beauty products — that are all under $60! 🌿🤍

Transitioning to a cleaner, nontoxic routine has been such a priority for me the past year. I’ve tried a lot of wins, I’ve tried a lot of fails. Today it’s time to talk about the BEST OF THE BEST! 🙌🏼🌿🤍 And no — you don’t need a $150 product to have a quality clean skincare routine.

Swipe for a sneak peek and head over to the blog for my FULL ROUTINE!
