This photo was taken 4 hours before the storm that surprised Dallas. I’d be lying if I said I’m a “cool girl”. You know, the girl I tried to be in my younger 20s, the one who doesn’t let shit get to her, the one who can handle anything and handles life like a champ and has not a single worry or negative thought, like ever.
Drink wine 🍷 it isn’t good to keep things bottled up.
Are you planning to go to the beach this spring or summer? My favorite type of vacation is heading to the beach to unwind, soak up some sun and sip on some margs.
A hot cup of coffee. The feeling of the crisp morning air while sitting on the patio. Morning sunshine peeking through the curtains. The humbling words of a daily devotional.
So we had one day left in my favorite US destination – Laguna Beach – and I couldn’t help but share some EXCITING news with y’all!!

With so many incredible food options in Dallas, it can be hard to narrow down where to dine on a Friday night! I prefer a restaurant with good energy, good food, and great service.
After working a long week, I cherish the moments I get to sit down and be humbly served a delicious, thoughtfully prepared meal. I typically cook meals Sunday-Thursday evening for my little family. But the weekends are my time to unwind, reward myself and enjoy my loved ones!

Like you and many of my readers, I fill my life with all the things: career, side hustle (blog), charity, family and so much more. My biggest motivator is personal growth and career growth, all while trying to find “balance” in my life.
The title of this post might not be the most classy, politically correct, or even appealing to some women – but I can’t help and be completely candid on the types of Google searches I’ve found myself get lost in over the years.
One of my favorite things to do during the fall is to go to brunch. For all of my fellow Texans, October presents the most beautiful and perfect weather.
Typically, temperatures reach a high of 80 and a low of 60, allowing us to brunch in around 70° temperature which is not only perfect, but also beautiful!
I know, I know, some of you might be thinking “could this post be any more narcissistic?!” I mean yeah, it could be, but who doesn’t want to put their best foot forward and present the world with the best image of themselves?!
If you don’t care, that’s totally cool. Let’s catch up on the next post. But today I wanted to share all the selfie-taking secrets I’ve collected over the years and what I’ve narrowed down to what I call “selfie essentials”.

Dating in 2018. What a confusing thing to do. In a world full of options, technology, and hours of mindless scrolling a day, is there even a real strategy to having success at dating?
For my motivated millennials out there – today I wanted to talk about some different ways I’ve been able to leverage my knowledge, talent and skills to make more money and essentially more than triple my income in the past four years.
You might not realize it, but often times there are opportunities every single day that we come across to increase our income. We can choose to ignore these opportunities, or jump right on them! More often than not, we also fail to recognize that most opportunities are created by us!
Welcome to The Candid Millennial! For those who are new here, today I wanted to give you a more personal look into my life and tell my story as to why I am building a fashion & lifestyle brand around self-love and awareness for women who have a little bit of a figure. 😉

Summer is officially coming to an end – and this weekend there are going to be TONS of crazy sales going on. One of my favorite retailers is the Banana Republic. I mostly shop their clothes during fall and winter because I love their sweaters, blazers, and jeans. The quality is typically really good and I can get some staple pieces at a great price!
