A little travel, life and fashion Q&A. I want to answer them ALL.
What’s the most important aspect of blogging for you?
That I always remain true to myself and the brand I created. Pink Champagne Problems was meant to be a hobby for a few years, and ended up turning into something I’m truly passionate about. I hope that comes across in my content. To me, I always want to create content for fun…not because it’s become a (second) job.
Full-time blogging? Thoughts?
I obviously think it’s so badass when someone leaves their full-time job to run their blog full-time. Especially if they’re unhappy with what they’re doing. But I wouldn’t say it’s for me. I’m so lucky that I absolutely LOVE my job. I love the industry I’m in, I love my bosses, I love my coworkers, and I love the work I do. I don’t think I could ever leave behind the work I put in. And sure, the job security (consistent paychecks, 401K, health insurance, etc.) definitely plays a factor, but I can honestly say I’m just TOO happy with my career.
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 to time management, and so much more! Oh, and I always find something to toast to!

Here’s what I’m loving, buying and eyeing!
With my upcoming trip to South Carolina, I’ve been going crazy buying warm-weather clothes. I’ve been going a little crazy with accessories too: shoes, hats, bags, headbands, and so on. And then throw in some pants, tops and dresses…of course;) Click through below to see what I’ll be wearing!

Weekend plans, anyone?
Allie and I are heading to the High Line to shoot this weekend. I actually can’t believe I haven’t shot there before! It’s supposed to be beautiful on Saturday too, so I’m excited to take in the fresh air and get some new content shot for you!
At night, Matt and I are heading to Astoria (Queens) to meet his parents for dinner and then out to a bar to listen to some live music. Pretty chill, and that’s exactly what I’m looking to do this weekend.
What fun things are you getting into this weekend?

Werkin’ on my fitness. Talking about new classes, small victories, etc.!
I wanted to say THANK YOU to all of the sweet comments on yesterday’s post. I love this supportive community, especially when I get a bit more personal (which is kind of scary). We all feel the pressure to look a certain way, whether it’s from others or from ourselves, but it’s how we handle it that shows our true strength.
This week, I kept the whole body confidence thing in my mind while at the gym and during my meals. I remained positive, pushed a little harder during my workouts, and was conscious about what I was putting into my body. Every little bit counts!
