Boho Wrap Skirt in Joshua Tree NAtional PArk

Joshua Tree National Park, CA

This outfit with this gorgeous boho wrap skirt may be one of my favorites EVER. It was one of the outfits I wore to the events during Coachella, but I somehow never got any pictures of it then. Wrap skirts & dresses are one of my favorite styles right now, although they seem to be difficult to wear, honestly haha! The dresses always seem to be super low cut, and the skirts always seem to open up in the front when you walk.. So just be cautious when you wear them! Since I didn't get any pictures of this outfit when I actually wore it, I decided to brin[...]

Take It Easy | Joshua Tree Airbnb

I recently stayed at the Cactus Moon Retreat in Yucca Valley, which is just outside of Joshua Tree National Park. The decor was so cute and the epitome of boho California cool. You can see a tour of the rest of the house here. It's seriously the perfect Joshua Tree Airbnb if you're traveling with a group! Photos by Ariel Rae Happy Mother's Day to all the mamas out there!!

The Cactus Moon Retreat in Yucca Valley

Yucca Valley, CA

I am so excited today about giving y'all a massive tour of the Cactus Moon Retreat! I stayed here with Taylor & Ariel last week in Yucca Valley, CA (right outside of Joshua Tree National Park) and it was so magical (watch Tay's vlog from the trip HERE). Lately, I've realized that there's something so serene and captivating about the desert, which is why I keep going back. I hadn't been to Yucca Valley/Joshua Tree in almost a year and a half and was very excited to be back and explore more! Cactus Moon Retreat is a "mid-century jewel with a privat[...]

Boho Maxi Dress + Trusting God in the Chaos

Yucca Valley, CA

Last week I ventured out to Joshua Tree with two friends, Taylor Love & Ariel Rae. We stayed at the Cactus Moon Retreat (check out more posts from my stay here), and I was prepared to do just that--retreat (besides when we were taking pictures). Life has been a little crazy lately, so I was excited to intentionally take time to escape "real life" a little bit... but that definitely didn't happen. Two weeks ago, my friend asked me to step up to lead our life group, which I was honestly terrified to do, but knew I had to. One week later was our first week ba[...]

Spring Pool Day with Secret Clinical Strength

Here in SoCal, the weather is finally warming up and it's really feeling like Spring! The other day I heard the quote, "Spring is nature's way of saying 'It's time to party!'", which I feel is so true!! Once Spring is here, there are so many events and social gatherings after a few laid back months following the holidays. It's probably my favorite season because it's filled with flowers, pool & beach days, trips to the desert, BBQs, etc. One of the things I look forward to in April is the pool parties and events during Coachella Weekend 1 near Palm Sp[...]
