Collins Birth Story
On March 11, 2020, our lives were forever changed when Collins Elisabeth Drake came into the world. A day that for so long felt so far out of reach, yet one that will live in our memory as the most special day of our lives. It’s the day we welcomed our daughter into the world and began our new journey as mom and dad! The emotions and experiences of that day are hard to put into words and why it has taken me nearly six months to share our story! There is truly nothing that parallels to giving birth and bringing another life into this world; an indescribable moment that I had to go through...
All-Time Favorite Nail Polish Colors
Maintaining well-manicured nails is part of my self-care routine. It's a simple way to look put together with little to no effort at all. Usually you'll find me wearing the same tried and true, classic hues that I rotate depending on the season and occasion. In fact, 90% of the time I am wearing one of the following colors in the gel formula. So, read on for my must-have nail colors and nail brands. Bubble Bath by OPI SHOP NOW ➔ Bubble Bath was the brands number one best selling nail color in 2018. This is OPI's answer to Essie's, Ballet Slippers. It's a pale, sweet pink that masters the...

Sometimes I'm intimidated to wear something even if I really like it, because I fear it will be to over the top. But if we all wore the same thing, that would make for a very boring world - wouldn't it? As I grow older I realize more and more...
Floral Fever
Photography by: Garrett Price // Carolina Portrait Design For Memorial Day, Justin and I traveled to Folly Beach on James Island for some uninterrupted time together! We had such a blast, and really enjoyed being on our own little schedule... or lack thereof :). Justin and I love vacationing at Folly, because it's a short drive away from our all time favorite city, Charleston! We like to spend our days on the beach, and head into the city at night for dinner and little shopping! If you are planning to visit, which I highly recommend you do, I suggest staying at Tide's. It's located...

They offer quality, wardrobe staples for unbelievable prices. What I love most about this look is the contrast of the red and gold accessories against the black and white solid pieces! Accessories should be the focal point of every outfit, and in this case they provide a great contrast! Over the past weekend I...

Honestly, I haven't paid for a pair of worn & unraveling jeans since the age of boy bands! Even today I think it's lucrative to pay $200+ for jeans with hole's in them, and so I made it my mission to find the perfect pair for what I believe to be a reasonable price! One afternoon I unexpectedly found these Banana Republic...
