Another year attending New York Fashion Week and it's still as exciting as my first runway show. This year, I was so blessed to have been invited to cover backstage hair with Bumble & Bumble. Throughout my NYFW vlogs, you'll get to see what goes on backstage and you also get to hang with me [...]
I've only been a Californian for 2 years now and we finally made it a point to get out to Lake Tahoe. I have to say that California has really opened my eyes to nature and has challenged me to do things outside of my comfort zone. Living in Florida practically all of my life, [...]
(Click here to watch the video) It's Summer Time and the outfits are goooood! We've been having a few nice weekends here, with hot days and cooler nights and I just can't get enough. So I've teamed up with Banana Republic (once again cause we're the real dream team I tell you) to show you [...]
Oh shit. So you started a blog or small online business and you're thinking to yourself, "What did I get myself into?!" It's terrifying. A few years ago, (when I started this blog) I imagined myself blogging every other month or so. Casually uploading a photo of an outfit and imagined it getting 10,000 views [...]
I've been so excited to share a little more about my wedding on MELSANV.COM! So, today, I'm taking you back to the day I said "YES" to the dress at a&bé bridal shop Dallas! I know you're wondering why I went all the way to Dallas to get my dress. The truth is, every year [...]

I could ramble all day about this editorial but to keep things simple: we wanted this last [...]
Ever since my FEMME collab with Timbuk2, my FEMME bag has seen better days. When I mean I ran that thing into the ground, it sure gave a good fight. So when I had the chance to make a custom Timbuk2 backpack before my New York trip I jumped at the chance! I will admit, [...]
Are you ready for more beauty goodness?! We're back with the second edition of our Nikol Elaine beauty editorial. Let me just start by saying that it excites me 10,000 times more when I'm editing a beauty editorial and my friend just happens to be the model! Julianne Cronin of The Wink Blog stepped in [...]
HOLY SUMMER. IT. IS. HOT! Last weekend, I took all but 2.2 seconds to realize that I needed this H&M set in my life. I used to start my Saturday routine with coffee and finding myself lost in a little retail therapy... cue in #weddingbudget and I've been hungry for all kinds of shopping that [...]
Back in April, I got the chance to attend Live in the Vineyard with the bareMinerals team. Not only did we get a little tour of Odette Estate Winery (which just opened and has an interior to die for) but we had a beautiful dinner while being seranated by American Idol winner, Nick Fradiani. I [...]
