Alright, let’s get real here. I’m no fashionista, and never claim to be. Oh, I WANT to be, but it just doesn’t happen. Most of my wardrobe is 100% comfortable and just slides by on “work appropriate.” I mean, I wrote this for christ’s sake. But even I am completely stoked for this new boutique’s … Continue reading
A while back, Bon Vital (the maker of spa products your last masseuse probably used on you) was approached by a luxury retailer to make products you can use at home to complement whatever your in-spa routine you have. Bon Vital at the spa; BVspa at home. So, the luxe retailer relationship didn’t happen, but … Continue reading
This past weekend, I celebrated my one-year anniversary of becoming a homeowner! It’s not every day you choose to spend all of your savings and become hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt–so if that isn’t a reason to celebrate I don’t know what is!

When’s the last time you went to a spa? Where was it? WHEN was it? For us, it’s like never. Vacations, maybe, or the rare treat yo’self moment, but for the most part, nah. TBH we don’t even know where we would go in Houston for a spa…The Four Seasons Downtown? A friend of a … Continue reading
Wondering what’s #ItsNotHou’s latest obsession? Hint it’s big, bright, made of bricks and located in EaDo. Every since we discovered it on Instagram — we’ve been obsessed with the Sugar and Cloth Color Wall. It’s such a fun addition to the Houston landscape and literally brightens up the city.

Confession time: I do a lot of sh*tty things to my skin… including (but not limited to): Going to sleep with my makeup on, forgetting to wear sunscreen, rubbing my eyes (#allergyseason), caking on makeup for events/Friday nights/always, and usually skipping out on my nightly beauty routine. I know; I’m a monster and will be … Continue reading
