@MissHilary_Banks hit me up on Instagram, saying, “Claire you should post your skin care essentials. Your skin always looks so radiant!” Well, thank you! I must admit, people ask me this question all the time. Last time I answered, I was using a pretty harsh combination of a Clarisonic brush, Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash, and Apple Cider Vinegar!

So when Emily B sent over a pair of her Lyndy Suede Booties to try, I figured I’d…
Ok, so I’m not well versed in writing travel guides…and these will be far from exhaustive! That said, I thought I’d offer my thoughts on where to stay, what to do, and what to see in several cities. First up: Miami! 1. Where to stay. I stayed at The Standard for my most recent trip to Miami. A good friend of mine loved it there and sang its praises, so I booked.
