The Classic Leather Tote Featuring Blackburn Goods
The Classic Leather Tote Featuring Blackburn Goods

There's quite the buzz over here at GFY HQ it's all because of a certain new bag: The Classic Leather Tote From Oklahoma owned Blackburn Goods. The Classic Leather Tote is the companion of the capsule wardrobe. Elegant and ready for anything, it’s size and design make it an irreplaceable. The dimensions are accommodate a large binder and wide enough to stand on its own. The Classic Tote is the perfect addition to a wardrobe. I love the classic design and modern details; a bag that is refined and polished but also feels very lived in and knows how to have some fun.

Loved receiving so many great inquiries in our DM’s when we introduced you to this bag in this very romantic reel inspired by Love Letters. And we are so excited for you to get to know more a bit more about the brand and the creator behind it-Emily Blackburn, in this Q + A feature!

Four Affordable Lingerie Brands That Actually Look VERY Expensive
Four Affordable Lingerie Brands That Actually Look VERY Expensive

Valentine's Day is just days away and celebrating by investing in sexy delicates might seem a little cliché. But, after the year we've had, we all deserve to have a little fun, and sometimes that means pulling on a tiny, matching lace set for a fun night at home. And not just on Valentine’s Day!!!

Of course I am always drawn to La Perla but they come with quite the price tag! After losing so much money last year and even this year-I just cannot afford those price tags!

NYE 2020
NYE 2020

Totally had no intention of dressing up tonight but the postman delivered these beauties from Galante.

What was a girl to do?!!

Happy NYE everyone! I hope you are safe at home!

I am never a huge fan of the whole New Year’s resolution thing, but I know I want 2021 to be a year of detox. In terms of detox, I do not mean giving up sugar or alcohol (although moderation is key), but I really learned I had a lot of things in my life that were not serving me this year! I REALIZED I WAS SPENDING TIME IN AREAS I QUITE FRANKLY HAD ZERO DESIRE TO DO.

Wearable Health You'll Want To Wear Featuring Withings Steel HR
Wearable Health You'll Want To Wear Featuring Withings Steel HR

Since I’ve been on my “after 8 months of living through a pandemic body reset” fitness journey I thought I should start wearing a fitness tracker again. But one question… Which one?! A few years ago, I had the STEEL HR branded under Nokia which I really enjoyed for several reasons. However, after not wearing it for so long it broke. Totally my fault!

Anyway after hours of research…I just kept coming back to The Steel HR. It was exactly what I was looking for and I loved my experience with it the first time so why switch up a good thing?! It can track activity, sleep & heart health—in style so there is just no comparison in my opinion. I know the apple watch does these things too but it is way too bulky for my taste. I just think it looks terrible with everyday outfits.
