Seattle you are beautiful!!!! Austin and I took a long weekend away on Valentine's weekend to Seattle and stayed with Kimpton Hotel Vintage Seattle Downtown and it could not have been more perfect thanks to them.

We arrived in the city to the sweetest treats and wine from the staff after a long day of traveling in the snow! We barely made it to our flight due to a snow storm and just walked right on the plane. I was pure anxiety until I was sitting in my seat! I'm so not into cutting it close people!!!
We found the cutest little Mexican restaurant called Cactus Southwest Kitchen that night. What else would we do after a long day of travel other than find some Mexican food and a margarita to start the weekend?

Favorite Weekend Spots:

1. PIKE PLACE - Do not miss out on this area on the bay. We ate at Honest Biscuits for breakfast overlooking the water and then walked around looking at all the art, flowers, and fish. For dinner one night we ate some amazing crab cakes and pasta at the Athenian Seafood Restaurant. And oh my gosh the best cheese EVER at Beecher's Handmade Cheese where you can look in the window and watch them make it in this huge tub of cheese dreams.
2. Gum Wall - A quick walk through, but iconic! Right off to the side of Pike Place Market, add your piece of gum to the collection.
3. Capitol Hill - This is where Austin and I got our tattoos!! Can you still believe it? I can't. Artful Dodger Tattoo could not have been more welcoming and comforting to someone getting their first tatt. Afterwords we walked around and made it to the Starbuck's Reserve and found some super cute shops in the area.
4. Ballard - Another adorable little town outside of Seattle closer to the mountains! We had some amazing pizza, coffee of course, and spent the day walking around and soaking in the sun.
5. Shopping - Naturally, don't miss all of the great shopping in the downtown area from Nordstrom's to Tiffany's!
6. Our hotel of course! - Kimpton Hotel Vintage Seattle and their adorable restaurant, Tulio Ristorante.

​I wish we could have stayed a few more days to hit up other spots across the bay and even spend some time hiking, guess we have to go back soon :)

Everything about our stay at Hotel Vintage was perfect! The downtown location was amazing and a short walk from Pike Place Market and all of the shopping, even a quick Uber ride to Capitol Hill area.  The room service breakfast was healthy and over the top, just how I like it because I guess I am a spoiled brat :) The yogurt and granola had to be my favorite, you just can't go wrong. Also, can we talk about how huge our room was!? Normally in a downtown hotel the rooms aren't overly spacious but this one sure was; even the bathroom was large. Big enough to let our suitcases explode like they normally do and still be able to walk around it haha.

Now I see why Seattle is the coffee capitol of the world. A Starbucks (or 3) on every corner, and boutique coffee shops to pick from for dayssss! No shortage of caffeine for us! One of our favorite spots had to be the Mr. West Coffee bar. Their aesthetic was so on point I could have cozied up in the corner there all day and watched people walk around in the rain. Speaking of rain, it was pretty much drizzly most of the weekend, but the sun was out to play and clear on our last day. Not bad for such a rainy area!!

​As we said our goodbyes for the weekend, we had the hotel driver pick us up in an all blacked out suburban and honestly felt like we were the Kardashians off for a flight to who knows were next. Could not have had better service!!

Thank  you, thank you to Kimpton Hotel Vintage Seattle for having us for a fun little getaway weekend, we will back!!!
This sweet spot in Seattle will forever hold a special place in our hearts! XX 

Thank you Paula's Choice for my new favorite moisturizer! xx Haley

One of my goals for 2019 is to be more organized with my blog and content planning. I'm so grateful for all of the opportunities that came my way in 2018 and the growth that I have worked for. All thanks to my readers and followers this has been possible and continues to be a growing dream for me. With all that mushy gushy said, I know that I need to be more strict with planning posts and keeping up with brand deadlines (I mean who doesn't). It's hard being your own boss (even if it's part time), especially making yourself sit down and take the time to plan.

I FOUND A FIX!

​The last thing I need to worry about during the busy holiday season is not having the right bra to wear with my perfect outfit. You ladies know what I’m talking about. You put your bra on thinking you will wear a certain dress, get the dress zipped up, and then the bra shows or the dress doesn’t fit right over it and then you change again into a sweater so you don’t have to change your bra. Don’t deny it, but all we need to do is change the bra, not the outfit haha! 

​This season, however, I have the perfect bra choices for every need all thanks to ThirdLove! Whether I’m having a girl’s night in watching the Hallmark Channel, a dinner party for work, or Christmassy date night, ThirdLove has the perfect style and fit for my needs. Each bra is beautifully made down to each perfect detail, and most importantly, they are COMFORTABLE! Each style has details that make all the difference when worn such as being tag less, smoothing fabrics, no-poke wire, and lightweight cups.

​Make getting ready easy this holiday season with my favorites from ThirdLove! This Lace Balconette bra is the perfect mix of feminine, fancy, and lightweight. I put it on and don’t want to take it off because it’s so pretty!

I love what they embody as a brand on top of their amazing bras and underwear. They are designed for real women with real bodies and real lives. They strive to bring you ultimate comfort by providing with 100% Fit Guarantee. Take their Fit Finder quiz and in less than one minute find the perfect fit for your body. ThirdLove even has more sizes than any other brand, +70 and half-cup sizing! Go get your perfect bras now, and stop fidgeting with your old ones!
 
Thank you dearly to ThirdLove for sponsoring this post! xx

​Hi Friends! Happy Black Friday! Talking about skin today, you know it is my biggest trouble haha. I have been using Garnier's Micellar Cleansing water and Rosewater hydrating mist before heading to the gym and when I want to take my makeup off after a long day at work. My skin feels so clean and soft afterwords and it's feeling healthier than ever since I haven't been wearing makeup to the gym! What I love most about them is that they don't leave my face feeling oily like other makeup removers do. The Micellar Cleansing Water comes in three options for any skin types, and all sensitive! My top one is the All-in-1 Mattifying for oily skin, but on drier days, I like to us the All-in-1 for all skin types. They even have one for waterproof makeup removal! 

Pour, Press, PROOF! It is crazy how easy it takes your makeup off, no need for harsh rubbing or rinsing it off!!

This Rose Facial Mist spray instantly hydrates and refreshes skin, even after makeup. It's made with rose water and can be used as a moisturizer to hydrate, before face makeup as a primer, after makeup to set it, and anytime throughout the day to refresh skin. I love using it right after I wash my face to hold in moisture.

​Use my Ulta promo code GRNSAVE2! This code is for $2.00 off any micellar on Ulta.com (excluding travel size). I know you ladies are heading there for Black Friday anyways, so be sure grab the right Micellar water for you skin type and hydrate it after with the Rose Soothing Facial Mist! Ready. Set. CLEANSE!

Protecting your hair from heat is super important. We hear it all the time from our hair stylists as we complain that we want to grow our hair out. Why is it so hard for us to just spritz on some heat protector and be on our way?! I always use heat protectant before I blow dry because I have such fine hair, and no matter what type of hair you have, you need to too!!

More than just a shield from heat, but a quick dry spray too, I'm in love with Sexy Hair's new spray Hot Sexy Hair - Flash Me! This spray is specially formulated to protect at up to 450 degrees and reduce blow dry time by up to 50%!! Trust me, it really does help speed up the process on a crazy morning. They have a whole line out now for protecting against heat damage for added high hold and shine. I need to go ahead and try the Protect Me Hot Tool Spray, and then my hair will be in really good shape!

​Thanks sexyhair for gifting me with Sexyhair Flash Me!

Stayed out too late or just plain too lazy to mask the night before? No worries! Sunday Riley's C.E.O serum is the perfect quick fix to brighten any skin.
