Cleaning & Organizing Favorites

I will be the first to tell you that I'm a messy person. Keeping my house clean and organized doesn't come second nature. I can laugh about it now, but I actually hid once when someone came to my door because I was embarrassed by the state of my living room. 😳 My huge breakthrough came while reading How to Manage Your Home Without Losing Your Mind: Dealing with Your House's Dirty Little Secrets by Dana K. White. I'll never be able to thank the author enough, and if you, like me, …

How to Plan your Next Trip

I've talked about my travel nerves a lot on social media. The way I deal with them is over-preparing for each trip - list making, packing, repacking. My absolute favorite thing to do is create a custom Google map for wherever I'm going. Not only does this make me feel prepared, it gets me so excited for all the places I'll see. Let me show you how I do it - Go to https://www.google.com/maps/ (make sure you are signed into Google). Click the menu in the upper left-hand corner and …

Hi! My name is Ashley, and I live in Northern Virginia with my husband, Jeremy. On my blog and YouTube channel, I share favorites and whatever I’m currently interested in – beauty, travel, personal finance, and more.

  • You guys. 😭 My cousin @jensteruppie had a custom digital portrait done of Momo. ♥️🐾 She printed it and framed it for me, and I put it above my desk in our living room last night. Seriously the kindest, most thoughtful gift. I miss Momo every day, so I love seeing her cute face as a cartoon. 🥰 Jenny used @leflorestudio on @etsy (swipe over to see the inspiration picture). #catsofinstagram

In other news, I just uploaded a new video talking about old and new beauty favorites. Let me know if you are getting anything during the Sephora sale!
  • @pipsoriginal - delicious doughnuts & one of the best chai lattes I’ve ever had. 🍩☕️🙌

  • Back from my Portland trip with @theunderratedherb (prepare for way too many pictures once I get them loaded onto my computer 📸😂)! I wanted to quickly share this image from my stories for those who wanted to know where the different bags are from -
• the marble packing cubes (thanks to @ingridnilsen for teaching her viewers about these years ago - they make packing so much easier!) are from @calpak • the little blue bag comes with the @drunkelephant Littles kit (I have bought a kit every year for the past few years to take with me on trips) • the gingham bags are @baggu • and the floral ones house my cosmetics and toiletries. They are the brand @tartanandtwine from @ultabeauty last year. Hope that helps!

  • Can we talk about the #enneagram?? @diana.lacounte got me interested, & now I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole. 🐰 I took a lot of the online tests with different results each time. I started reading more about each of the numbers, & when I got to threes...😳. Heyo! Let’s just say it hit a little close to home (maybe even 3w4). I’m still learning, but if you know your number, leave it below! I’m so interested!
  • This was taken on my “bunk off” day with Jer. 😂 I love that so many of you are #theitcrowd fans too! Other than enjoy a gorgeous day in Georgetown, I also edited a What’s in my Bag video. It just went live on my channel (link in bio)!

  • I used the new Hobonichi Style Undated Weekly Inserts from @cloth_and_paper last week & loved them! Clean, stylish & the graph paper is perfect for brainstorming or note taking. 📝 #planner #plannerlove #planneraddict #clothandpaper #fujifilm
  • Did a 2019 goals check-in with myself this morning. I’ve been able to cross off three so far this year, 🥳 & I’ve decided to make April my photography-focused month. I’ve been inspired by professionals like @ogonzilla (he makes the *best* #fujifilmxt20 videos on YouTube) to have fun & to carry my camera with me more often. I even bought a gimbal so I can use the #fujifilm for travel videos...hopefully. 😣 I have been on the verge of angry tears trying to figure it out. 😭😆 How are you doing on your goals & intentions? 💛
  • We had to have our roof replaced today thanks to some storm damage. 😩 The noise was constant & loud. Rosco slept the entire time. 😂 His little Thumper feet kill me. (If you missed it in Stories, I’m cat sitting one of my mom’s cats for a few days. 💖)
