What is your favorite post ever on your blog?
I’ve written a lot of posts on Pink Champagne Problems, but after my trip to London, I have a new favorite. And It has to be this post from Big Ben/Westminster. In light of the events that happened on Wednesday in the exact location where we shot these photos (unreal), they have a lot more meaning to me now.
What are some places on your travel bucket list?
As far as “quick trips” (aka in the US/Canada): Montreal, Vancouver, Napa, Seattle, Montana (Matt has family there), New Orleans and Nashville. And far away places: Ireland, Amalfi Coast, Iceland, Australia, Singapore, Switzerland, Bermuda, Finland.
^^ Anyone ever been to the above spots? Would LOVE to hear about YOUR travels!
PS: Are you signed up for The Weekend Toast? I’ve loved writing all my life, so this new exclusive content is a great opportunity to expand Pink Champagne Problems…and for you to get to know me on another level. I would LOVE for you to subscribe! (Don’t worry, I will never spam your inbox!) A little preview: I talk about everything from my job, time management, and more! Oh, and I always find something to toast to!

If you follow me on Instagram and watch my Instagram Stories, you might have seen me talk about my most recent experience with Nordstrom. I honestly didn’t think I could love Nordstrom more than I already had, BUT they exceeded my expectations this time around. I was randomly browsing my Instagram Stories and saw the cutest video of Ashley in the cuttttttest pair of shoes. I immediately screenshot the video so I wouldn’t forget to look for the shoes.
AND I COULDN’T FIND THEM ANYWHERE. It was like they didn’t exist.
I even emailed Schutz to see where the heck these beauties (see two paragraphs below) were hiding. They emailed me back and said they didn’t make these in the US. I clearly wasn’t convinced because I asked Ashley which Nordstrom she found them at and emailed them ASAP. I sent the team the screenshot and THEY FOUND THEM AND SHIPPED THEM OUT THAT NIGHT.
I wanted to cry of happiness. They should be arriving tonight and I’m seriously SO excited.
Side note……..after I wrote this, I was browsing new arrivals on Nordstrom…and look what I found. It’s actually quite funny how impatient I am, but either way, Nordstrom is still the best.

This week was a BUSY one for me, especially at work. And next week is going to be even busier (at work and after-work events). This weekend, I’m going to be laying real low. Allie and I are shooting on Saturday and it’s supposed to be 61 degrees, so I’m excited! I’m also ready to start reading my newest book from the library, The Book Thief.

Nashville is one of my favorite spots! I have a travel guide on my blog from my recent girl’s trip if you need recommendations 🙂 And yay for finding those cute loafers- I’m the same way when I find something I have to have!! Have a great weekend!
We have the exact same travel bucket list- I’m hoping to do a Seattle then Vancouver trip this fall! But I’ve been to Ireland and the country is SO gorgeous and I love all the castles, I wasn’t impressed with Dublin at all, it felt a lot like Boston. Have a fabulous weekend, lady!
