It got to me and I started cutting out things to give myself more time to rest. It just so happened the thing I cut was my work out time. Same goes for when I started my last job. The company had a personal trainer come in twice a week that I took full advantage of. However, travel picked up and I was on and off a plane 13 times last year. https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/dailyprotein monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598666314105-BDUTUZ8CWMR5BLOR7402/0-2.jpg Wellness - Deciding on Daily Protein https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598578835337-QIKEG1TS4NF005LNF449/0-1.jpg Wellness - Deciding on Daily Protein - There is such a variety of protein powders out there now, it’s hard to keep track of them all! At the beginning of 2019, I read Kelly LeVeque’s book Body Love and learned so much about balancing food. Her fab four smoothie recipe, which includes greens, is the first one I attempted. It did not disappoint. I drank a smoothie a day for around 4 months, took a small break due to work travel and then started up again. I’ve heard people say they drink it because they should or it’s healthy, but contrary to popular belief, it can actually taste good! It’s all about the ingredients! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598578917354-B0P4L1L00VIUOCU5ONXY/0.jpg Wellness - Deciding on Daily Protein - Then, I found out about Perfect Bars – thanks to Danielle Pascente! I literally eat one every morning. They are refrigerated protein bars that are made with 20+ superfoods, organic honey, peanut butter or almond butter and whole food protein. Each bar has 15g of protein! My staple flavors are peanut butter, dark chocolate chip peanut butter and coconut peanut butter. Wait – there’s more! They also have perfect bites (bite size pieces instead of a bar) for an afternoon snack OR newest on the docket are their peanut butter cups. The dark chocolate sea salt is my favorite and you still get 7g of protein from eating chocolate peanut butter cups. Does it get any better?! https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/category/protein monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/category/Wellness monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/ProteinPowder monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/Movement monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/ToneItUp monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/ProteinBar monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/BodyLove monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/Coconut monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/PrimalKitchen monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/Protein monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/PerfectBar monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/CashewButter monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/Mindset monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/DarkChocolate monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/PeanutButter monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/AlmondButter monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/wellness/tag/Fitness monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion daily 0.75 2020-09-16 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/americaneagletryon monthly 0.5 2020-09-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600288283641-PXNE2XNPVXLMKQ0K5V8F/1-1.jpg Fashion - American Eagle Try-On https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600288303403-QU89YBQAKGDHYXJ3QXEI/1-3.jpg Fashion - American Eagle Try-On https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600288331092-EZ2VHK7HUR29YVYC9M2K/1.jpg Fashion - American Eagle Try-On https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600288254109-0B517HD7MA8WOEB8U4FG/1-2.jpg Fashion - American Eagle Try-On https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/earrings monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598639679831-NEDETLQ3F00D4IDCSRJY/0-3.jpg Fashion - Earrings, Please - Last but not least, these earrings are from a boutique in Buda called The Mercantile at Mill + Grain. I was gifted these by a dear friend for my birthday but I love this boutique. I could spend a whole pay check there!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598638588879-N532XYMLSD0P96FYAH8Q/0-9.jpg Fashion - Earrings, Please The pink and black cubed earrings are from Kate Spade. The top right silver and black studs are from a small boutique in Asheville, NC. The other three are from Target!

Their designs are timeless and the quality is fantastic. I love that I can dress their pieces up for a special night out or down for an every day look. They even have wedding pieces! They also make great gifts! I bought my mom one of their necklaces last year and she loves it! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598755285408-LOHF7LMIMIO3XF77IKYE/0-5.jpg Fashion - Earrings, Please - I’ve been a Kendra Scott fan for years! I basically have enough of her jewelry to start a small boutique! Jokes aside, there is a reason I love her items. Not only has she built a solid brand BUT her items are classics that won’t go out of style. Here are just a few of my top dangle style earrings. https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/targetfindsinquarantine monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598754483790-STCFYCSAWUP2XGS5DWGE/0-3.jpg Fashion - Target finds in Quarantine https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598754368943-KDUTJ7NBAXL9H6HWN9RV/0-5.jpg Fashion - Target finds in Quarantine https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598754428700-PBYKLIRNAU6SUJHDL8UW/0-1.jpg Fashion - Target finds in Quarantine https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/category/Fashion monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/jewelry monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/Bralette monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/KendraScott monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/Leggings monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/studs monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/dangling monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/Offline monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/Aerie monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/OliveandPiper monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/AmericanEagle monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/affordablefashion monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/Target monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/sweaterweather monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/SweaterWeather monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/quarantine monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/fashion/tag/earrings monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty daily 0.75 2020-10-06 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/pmskincareroutine monthly 0.5 2020-10-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602000790019-ZY8VG0WD9FH7DSK8GM3K/1.jpg Beauty - PM Skincare Routine - In my twenties, I would never run errands without foundation, concealer and eyeliner. I just felt like I “needed it” to go out in public. I’m pretty sure that stemmed from what society told me I needed to look like as a young woman, but I call bullshit. It wasn’t until my thirtieth year that I realized I didn’t need to please other people who may or may not be looking my way. Now I must admit this mentality started shifting a few years ago. I would put on a hat and run errands with dirty hair and a sweatshirt on (which I would have never done in my early twenties). BUT I still did my make-up! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602001134883-Y2MWQHS8MHMVTTIQPNTI/1.jpg Beauty - PM Skincare Routine - The reason I started out with the above information is because I’m about to talk through my 4 nighttime products which all happen to be Tula. Currently, Tula is doing an #embraceyourskin initiative to inspire and empower everyone to feel confident in their skin. This is not an ad - I just truly love their products and have seen a change in my skin which has given me the extra boost to go out in public without any make-up on. https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/makeupforsensitiveskin monthly 0.5 2020-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1601393789433-HJLVVXYD5DUFL091BJZM/1-3.jpg Beauty - Make-Up Products for Sensitive Skin - Speaking of, I first learned about IT Cosmetics when Founder, Jamie Kern Lima spoke at RISE in Dallas last year. They were giving all attendees a free CC Cream and it was a game changer. They had consultants there to help pick your shade and then gave you a full-size product. I don’t use much foundation, so I actually just finished that first cream. It’s an amazing product! I ended up getting the Bye Bye Under Eye and Bye Bye Pores Illumination setting powder as well. I use all three items daily and, on those days, where I don’t want to do a full make-up look, I use a little under eye and setting powder and voila! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1601393903001-5UH0QKFFIR5O7HB7U7Q2/1-5.jpg Beauty - Make-Up Products for Sensitive Skin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1601393902433-4G632H1Q2XLDYBNY8GCG/1-2.jpg Beauty - Make-Up Products for Sensitive Skin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1601393902251-90VCI7ANFCU10ZUX49H2/1-1.jpg Beauty - Make-Up Products for Sensitive Skin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1601393903049-R21BM5ZQ29NNQ2VDCVKB/1-4.jpg Beauty - Make-Up Products for Sensitive Skin https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/favoritehairproducts monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598575636198-CMFPS0DLKZKVR08E83I4/0.jpg Beauty - Favorite Hair Products https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598575614586-P4Y31M0HZQVQG70LB4KI/0-2.jpg Beauty - Favorite Hair Products https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598575569873-CYVUKJ2YXOTA996BBQ0S/0-1.jpg Beauty - Favorite Hair Products https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/topfiveskincareproducts-sensitiveskin monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598755994184-5DFPARY2TQTRA7H6TPET/0-4.jpg Beauty - Top Five Skincare Products for Sensitive Skin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598756013840-MDKJY8LC8IJXOA7L5YX4/0-5.jpg Beauty - Top Five Skincare Products for Sensitive Skin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598573709049-12XV3CZB9HXAOFQVUH5B/0.jpg Beauty - Top Five Skincare Products for Sensitive Skin https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/category/Beauty monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/category/Hair monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/tula monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/Beauty monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/PMskincareroutine monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/skincare monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/texture monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/Acne monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/MakeUp monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/Skincare monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/target monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/%23embraceyourskin monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/hairproducts monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/Tula monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/IT+Cosmetics monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/hair monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/cerave monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/sgxnyc monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/ouai monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/kristiness monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/Tarte+Cosmetics monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/SensitiveSkin monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/beauty/tag/beautycounter monthly 0.5 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration daily 0.75 2020-10-23 https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/repurposingtablenumbers monthly 0.5 2020-10-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1603473473016-XXVCTUI3PI2Q3XK1NY4X/029PhotographerFavorites.jpg Inspiration - Repurposing Table Numbers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1603473490181-WIS2ERXBWNLR5ERL1R6K/20171104JessicaandAdam260.jpg Inspiration - Repurposing Table Numbers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1603473506199-DF4LMO5ZXJU8CETR1ZMM/20171104JessicaandAdam242.jpg Inspiration - Repurposing Table Numbers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1603473581318-ZMH4DZSO9E315VOM3X69/tablenumbers.jpg Inspiration - Repurposing Table Numbers https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/netflixfavorites monthly 0.5 2020-10-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1603306919265-RMR3XLJ5FH66WRLZ5QCT/1-1.jpg Inspiration - Netflix Favorites - Let’s goooooooooo My number 1 binge-worthy show is Gilmore Girls. I’ve watched the series plus A Year in the Life mini-series too many times…but also not enough haha. Now, I just love to have this show on when I’m writing blogs or just want something on in the background. Another one that is also good to have on in the background is Gossip Girl. Yep, I said it! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1603306944124-NAY3ZXW644M02S4R7S88/1-3.jpg Inspiration - Netflix Favorites - I’m calling the next two shows cheesy goodness because no judging! First, Emily in Paris. This was one of those feel good, funny but over the top kind of shows. Makes me want to buy a whole new wardrobe and also go back to Paris! That being said, it was a nice break from your standard TV show. Second, Outer Banks. I started this when quarantine first began and honestly, I wasn’t sold on it. Then I watched another episode and ended up just watching the whole season. It was pretty entertaining but not a show that I would watch again. However, when season 2 comes out…I’ll probably end up watching it. https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/finding-the-wedding-dress monthly 0.5 2020-10-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865367669-HJUARX60B1FS268JIBH2/1.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865469750-55QYZC3LK405UDHI33S9/20171104JessicaandAdam163.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865036171-O9L8K9AU7AMXE8HE0LVT/1-6.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865037594-BGQFAZYUK0IEE8XF0VR3/1-8.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865036266-H5DDKIEDHOUD3SLUZQDM/1-7.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865204652-8UFG8D6TZAWUK6WPJC7D/1-3.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865205740-4W7MKQL7CLESS25Q2W20/1-4.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865205956-D2Z3VNKJWEZ1778NA3A2/1-5.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865204782-WWD0R7H3SO049CQ086FH/1-2.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865206451-MUCUJL5AW5YJNNN3QBLN/1.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865297507-JU9EQOJJ4XYB61LUCIQX/1-3.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865297854-NT1DJX2TYBS2LF5B59S0/1-4.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865297226-BVVSHBTQ810XX8L1NN9D/1-1.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865298818-804QB3V64C98Y4SYUMTE/1.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865296832-UI5H0LJ336KH1U6H98Q7/1-2.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602865071063-G0N5EE3A427GWVFTSO4Z/1-1.jpg Inspiration - Finding the Wedding Dress - The second salon was not my favorite. I had only heard rave reviews but from the minute we walked in, it just didn’t feel like we were wanted. My mom had to come in the dressing room to help me try on my dresses…which was very…intimate. It was also very dark in the space, so lighting was hard. You can tell by my face in this picture that I’m not feeling it! https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/engagementsessionattire monthly 0.5 2020-10-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602262116675-P59RE8WFLYK63EYRRT62/20170327JessicaandAdam080.jpg Inspiration - Engagement Session Attire https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602262037977-CZ4IZPTP1A5FZBQ3AA3S/20170327JessicaandAdam101.jpg Inspiration - Engagement Session Attire https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602261887130-B0FE12HZDJSQGPU5ARPT/20170327JessicaandAdam011.jpg Inspiration - Engagement Session Attire https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602261902341-H9RPYVHD51TISR1LSJTH/20170327JessicaandAdam075.jpg Inspiration - Engagement Session Attire https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602261916030-FZN8AXCOON80I7GN7OTC/20170327JessicaandAdam088.jpg Inspiration - Engagement Session Attire https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602261951229-MQ55LLOA3UM55DAZ38DG/20170327JessicaandAdam094.jpg Inspiration - Engagement Session Attire https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602261940038-TTVYGF2KYZKRXTEE41MP/20170327JessicaandAdam104.jpg Inspiration - Engagement Session Attire https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1602261966034-T7D1YY0D9NT80UBHUB7J/20170327JessicaandAdam115.jpg Inspiration - Engagement Session Attire https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/escortcardvsplacecard monthly 0.5 2020-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1601586853904-9V5SWHYSF81OSAPGMZMS/1.jpg Inspiration - Escort Cards vs. Place Cards https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/winesonadime monthly 0.5 2020-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600892160708-PJN08D827GNG099U4O2I/1-1.jpg Inspiration - Wines on a Dime https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600892278055-C7SGPAOEVEUWADBSV6UZ/1-2.jpg Inspiration - Wines on a Dime https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600892327912-1X0DU5MJPJRVB0XYLQ4R/1.jpg Inspiration - Wines on a Dime https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600892214501-2KDCJ74PH2TCF96EFMD5/1-3.jpg Inspiration - Wines on a Dime https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/losingjobinaglobalpandemic monthly 0.5 2020-09-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600784285622-LK5CT7K20XP0BLJJVK4D/1.jpg Inspiration - Losing My Job in a Global Pandemic - I had been thinking about getting this tattoo for years and for some reason, whether it be fate or just odd timing, I decided to go for it at the start of 2020 and right before a global pandemic would shake up our world. It means prepared for all / ready for anything. I thought it was quite fitting given my profession, but I also wanted a gentle reminder that no matter what life brings my way, I can handle it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600788090935-O56SU6NRFW30QQ0135K3/1-1.jpg Inspiration - Losing My Job in a Global Pandemic https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600788137043-ZWGJLBCKWC8U61UT4DB3/1-3.jpg Inspiration - Losing My Job in a Global Pandemic https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/coffeecoffeecoffee monthly 0.5 2020-09-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600180278925-JQ873RO5RVQE29GMGF4V/0-3.jpg Inspiration - “Coffee, Coffee, Coffee” – Lorelai Gilmore https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600180330291-1WCO1J8140QVIJ3R5BVL/0-4.jpg Inspiration - “Coffee, Coffee, Coffee” – Lorelai Gilmore https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600180369851-IOWHUJKPF6A2QX3YJ9EF/0-5.jpg Inspiration - “Coffee, Coffee, Coffee” – Lorelai Gilmore https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1600180407665-94XW62O0EZZTCCQEHLOB/0.jpg Inspiration - “Coffee, Coffee, Coffee” – Lorelai Gilmore https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/favoritesummercocktails monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598405283277-XW6PWUD9N5BZT9MO1UQQ/0.jpg Inspiration - Favorite Summer Cocktails! - Frosé has been my number one this Summer. There’s a local spot in town called Hank’s that makes the BEST frosé but when I can’t get over to that side of town, this recipe from Bon Appetit hits the spot! I do add a touch more lemon juice and maybe a splash of Tito’s Vodka ;) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598756699075-B77WN4W3ELGZCKSE8CSA/0-1.jpg Inspiration - Favorite Summer Cocktails! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598837353662-IJMT9S1A0OA1CN3FJSBB/0-3.jpg Inspiration - Favorite Summer Cocktails! - Margaritas will always be a staple here in Texas. I mean can you even have queso and guacamole without a margarita?! Here is a simple yet delicious recipe from Delish. PS. Has anyone tried Teremana Tequila Blanco courtesy of The Rock?

Detour, I know, but that’s kind of how this year has felt. I’ve said this more times than I can count since this all started but I feel like we are in a movie and I just keep waiting for someone to call scene or that’s a wrap! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598397446560-C985HULS9ODK34BH8F04/0-1.jpg Inspiration - 2020 – 1990 = 30…in Quarantine - I ended up having a lovely (socially distanced) birthday – cocktails with close friends, Napa wine with that dear friend of mine at a local park, and my family surprising me with homemade cake and a weekend full of laughter and love. My husband and I are still talking about starting our own little family but with a tad bit more caution until I can find a job! https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/inspiration/instagramworthymuseum

I’m an only child who grew up playing make believe and dressing like Disney princesses, which I think is where my creativity first sparked. I went to The University of Texas at Austin (Hook’Em!) and majored in Advertising with a Business minor. I fell in love with events my Sophomore year when I found a student lead organization at UT called Texas Belles. I honestly never looked back in the rearview mirror, from that year on, I wanted to be an event planner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598892444271-UQVJXHKCC64CECH9HV0M/0.jpg About https://www.thechampagneoflife.com/home daily 1.0 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598823485576-5ZEDBTLLDQJC2DSV1BUN/0-7.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598823569056-7FT198D2UGHQ8G0HK02X/0-1.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f31ce638b6d8b4eabae77c0/1598893676381-HB4JJEATY4GHR4VCXXXV/0-10.jpg Home
