I love when Fall rolls around, mostly because of the upcoming holidays. Not that the weather gets super cold here in Houston or there’s a major need for UGG boots and scarves, but you’ve got Halloween, Thanksgiving, then of course my birthday, Christmas and New Year’s Eve/Day, so there’s a lot to decorate and plan […]
There are few things I would deplete my bank account for and regular massages is definitely one of them. One of my favorites is Hiatus Spa + Retreat, located in Houston’s prestigious Tanglewood neighborhood. I love this spa in particular for many reasons, but what I love most boils down to their monthly H-Circle membership, […]
As I shared last week, I recently moved back to the Montrose area and love it. This area has so much uniqueness and for someone who works in the creative field, I feel it has kept me motivated in that field. It’s no secret (as in, not at all), that Montrose has some amazing little spots, and […]
Over the years, I’ve moved my fair share. If I’m being honest, I think moving is one of the most daunting tasks around, yet I seem to find myself in the same stressful predicament. I relocated to Houston in 2006 for a job with the Houston Astros and have since bounced all around the Houston […]
In full transparency, I wasn’t sure I was going to share this experience. The main reason is I’ve always had major skepticism when it comes to any sort of treatments or products that offer “quick fixes.” My dad taught me long ago when something seems too good to be true, it usually is. But in this case […]
Not all Fridays are created equal, so let me tell you about my Friday at Four Seasons Spa in Houston— here’s a spoiler alert for those with a short attention span – the Tata Harper Serenity Ritual body treatment/massage (with Tristan) was one of the best I’ve had in Houston. Another spoiler alert: comment on […]
Summer is here and if you’re in Texas, you know finding any sort of refreshment (a pool, a vibrant and fresh drink, a car with properly working air-conditioning, etc.) is an absolute must. I always love sharing my favorite drinks (y’all already know I’m a big fan of rosé), but this summer I have fallen […]
I love Aspen and how it makes me feel unlike any other city I’ve visited over my years as a travel writer. And yet, no matter how many times I visit Aspen, I fall more in love each time. Though I’ve always heard good things, I hadn’t ever stayed at the Limelight in Aspen until this […]
It’s certainly not a secret I love all things Denver. It’s just a fantastic city, especially during the summer. Last month, I spent a week at Halcyon Hotel Cherry Creek (pronounced Hal-see-uh n) and I could not have been more impressed (not just with the hotel and all its uniqueness, but the overall vibe and amenities around Cherry Creek). Check-in […]
We all need to get away with a gal pal every so often, and sometimes jumping on a flight or going into full-on planning mode chockfull of itineraries and Internet searches defeats the purpose. Last month I decided to take a last-minute road trip from Houston to Baton Rouge (277 miles), and I was pleasantly […]
