The Cadence is Senreve’s newest style and my new love!
Named for a musical term, cadence is defined as: a rhythmic sequence or flow. It is a word that perfectly describes the beauty of my new bag, hitting all the right notes. The Senreve Cadence Crossbody Bag’s curves and angles are the epitome of modern Italian elegance. What sold me on the Cadence? The double flap closure, the Strati Buckle, and an exterior pocket for added style. The inside features thoughtful attention to detail and organization with three compartments, two slip pockets, a button pocket, and a key leash.
The Cadence strap (included) can even be worn around your waist as a belt! The unique design allows this bag to be compatible with all the Senreve straps and chains too!

I know that bras aren’t big in 2020 now that we are all working from home, but we’ll be back to normal one day and when you are ready to wear a bra every day this post will be for you!
Beauty is in the eye of the boob-holder.
Shopping for bras can be tricky and every bra is not for everyone, but Spanx makes some fantastic bras. These bras are soft, comfortable, and made with unbelievable technology.
This is my absolute favorite everyday bra and at the top of my Spanx bra review post for a reason! It’s the kind of bra you can wear all day, come home, put your sweats on and leave on…because it’s just that comfortable.
Now, I’ve been wearing a bra for about twenty years now and I still prefer a front clasp closure. Who’s with me? This bra has a front clasp closure and SPANX Smart Stretch Straps -> a fancy way of saying nonadjustable straps. I know nonadjustable straps sound like a nightmare to most, but TRUST ME when I say trust the technology. Everything about this bra works and it will leave you saying hallelujah for the Bra-llelujah!
Slip into this bralette and never look back. This style that’s more bra than bralette has all the features you love. It’s comfy AF with just the right amount of support for lounging around the house and walking the dog. The concealed side sling gives the figure a more forward lift with no metal hardware or elastic.
I felt this way about pretty much every strapless bra I’ve ever owned until I got my hands on the Up For Anything Strapless Bra. She’s a splurge, but she’s worth every penny (and you can use my discount code: katxspanx).
This details on the Up For Anything Strapless Bra are unbelievable:
Spanx SmartGrip™ technology and With Me® tape provide a smooth grip around the body. Stays put ALL DAY!
The Spanx patent-pending elastic-free design = no digging in
Memory foam cups mold to your body for a natural shape and personalized fit
Removable, convertible straps offer ultimate outfit versatility (but does anyone ever use those straps?)
This bra was designed to show off and I am here for it! I like to style it under anything that has a very low neckline like my Free People, Just Because Onesie. This is an excellent option for all my ladies who are looking for a simple wireless bra too! One of my favorite benefits of this bra is its ability to provide the right amount of support without the wire and it has the Spanx undetectable technology that supports and smooths like no other!
I got this bra in the middle of my virtual half marathon training when I was in Lake Tahoe and initially thought that it would only be good for low-impact workouts and jumping in the lake for a post-workout swim.
Boy was I wrong! This bra was perfect for my daily runs and the fact that it doubles as a bikini top makes it a hard YES! Don’t worry about jumping in a pool with it on either, it is both chlorine and saltwater resistant. Snag the matching bikini bottoms too!
You’ve made it all the way to the end of my Spanx bra review post and I’m hoping that you are adding this sports bra to your cart. I’ve never heard of a sports bra/bikini top in one! Have you?
Chloé Woody Sandals Review and How to Save Over $100
Chloé’s Woody sandals are casually stylish. The leather sole is crossed by three straps adorned with the classic Chloé logo.
I’ve had these sandals for about a year now and can 100% vouch for them. They add a luxe touch to every outfit and are easy to wear with pretty much anything thanks to their neutral colors.
Chloé Woody Sandals Sizing
Saks suggests that this style runs small and to order one size up ->
However, I ordered my true size 38/8 and did not have any issues. I would only suggest sizing up if you have a very wide foot since the top of the shoes are a stiff fabric and does not give or stretch.
My final Chloé woody sandals review is that you will wear these sandals all the time, but they will take some time to wear in. The fabric allows for an approachable price point for a designer shoe, but you WILL need to break them in!
ABOUT THE BRAND
In 1952, founder Gaby Aghion established Chloé as an alternative to couture, and to appeal to the aspirations and empowerment of women. The label is now led by Creative Director Natacha Ramsay-Levi, who furthers its signature aesthetic of cool, French-girl style.
Looking for the wild mustard super bloom fields in Half Moon Bay that you are seeing all over your Instagram feed? This guide will highlight everything you need to know to visit — legally! No trespassing required! If you’re hoping to visit the wild mustard fields in Half Moon Bay, this guide will share exactly what you need to know! Cost, how to get there, where to park, photo tips, etc — everything! It’s definitely worth the short drive from San Francisco in February and March!
For $10 cash a person, you can head to Iacopi Farms and legally visit the stunning Half Moon Bay Superbloom (all of the money supports local farmers). Iacopi Farms has plenty of walking pathways to go to the middle of the field so that you don’t damage the flowers and respect the space.
Wild mustard plants grow almost everywhere in the Bay Area, you can find them in Napa, Sonoma, and along other roads all over Northern California.
The Half Moon Bay Superbloom usually only lasts a few weeks in February and March, so if you are planning to go, go now!
And if you go wear appropriate shoes! The ground is wet! My photographer wore wellies and I wore my plastic Birkenstock sandals.
Waikiki is easily my least favorite destination in Hawaii, yet I somehow found myself spending quite a bit of time there this year! Here is a list of what I didn’t hate and all the places that BAMBOOZLED me during my stay.
Hotels

White Sands Hotel – This is the hotel that has the bar with the swing! We spent one night there and it was 100% the most Instagrammable spot we stayed at… but it was still giving off 70s motel vibes. They gave this hotel a mini facelift for the gram, but the rooms left me wanting more. If you can snag a good deal on a room it’s worth staying there, just know that it is off the beach and in an old building.
The Modern Honolulu – This hotel reminded me of a Standard Hotel on the mainland. I loved this location (near the Harbor), but don’t expect any kind of customer service from this hotel. Check-out is at 10 am and there is ZERO wiggle room. I’ve been told NO so many times at a hotel!
Park Shore Waikiki – DO NOT STAY HERE. Don’t even click on the link. Nope, No! It’s right in the middle of the Waikiki CHAOS and
Bars/Restaurants
My favorite bite on Waikiki was from Musubi Cafe IYASUME (the Waikiki Monarch location). Order the eel spam musubi #trustme!
Looking for a local bar AWAY from the chaos of Waikiki? Head straight to The Harbor Pub & Pizza. Truly our favorite find for the Waikiki guide.
I’ve never had a bad meal at The Pig and the Lady. We didn’t actually make it to the restaurant this trip – I ordered the Pho French Dip on UberEats and it was a 10/10.
I am PROUD to announce that we ate at Red Lobster in Hawaii. Why? Because I was sick of being BAMBOOZLED and it’s next to impossible to mess up a cheddar bay biscuit.
It’s going to cost you – but you can never go wrong with:
Duke’s – I was BAMBOOZLED at their $21.50 breakfast buffet! Don’t do it!
Rainbow Drive-In – I just don’t get the hype! I LOVE Hawaiian plate lunch and this truly was not it!
LuLu’s – We hit their late-night happy hour right after we checked in to our hotel and boy-oh-boy did we get BAMBOOZLED! They refused to honor their happy hour prices and we spent 45 minutes negotiating our bill with the entire staff! No! No! No!
