A fashion and lifestyle blog by a college gal
Happy FRIDAY! Today I’m working a little longer at the office and then I’m coming home to answer a few emails in my personal office and then Josh and I are going on a DATE!! Yay! We haven’t been on a planned date since like April lol. We’ve been so busy and the times we do get, we just want to be home. Josh asked me the other week not to make plans tonight and I’ve been excited since. We are going to the movies and then to dinner and I just can’t contain my excitement lol. [Read more…]
Well hey, friends! No fashion posts AT ALL this week. I shared my coffee creamer recipe on Monday and stay tuned for Friday for an exciting post! Today, I’m sharing a really cool company with y’all that I figured would be helpful for those that have their own business or are starting business’. Anyone else feel like your FB feeds are filled with so many ‘new business’ announcements!? [Read more…]
I know what you’re thinking….. This isn’t a typical post on my blog! In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever done a recipe/food post other than my grocery list/ things I eat post. As I’ve become extremely interested in a Paleo diet and different cool healthy recipes and gut health things, I’ve started wanting to share more ‘wellness’ on the blog. So here and there y’all may see a post surrounding the subject. [Read more…]
Hi gals! Happy FRIDAY!!! We made it to the weekend. This week was so great. I don’t really even know why but I just loved this week. Mainly because I started back and OrangeTheory and also got my nails done haha. My parents are coming to town today and spending the weekend with Josh, my sis, and I. I can’t wait to have them here. I never get enough time with them anymore!
Since October began this week (eek… can’t believe it!) I had to do my monthly current favorites. I started this last month and shared how I got the idea from my Happy Planner. Well, I’m back to share what this months current favorites and activities are (plus my quote of the month!). [Read more…]
Hi y’all!! It’s MONDAY… again 🙂 I’ve been trying to not “wish” for the weekend each week and I’ve been taking more advantage of each day so I’m going to try again this week to stick to that mindset. If you’ve been following along on Instagram stories… y’all know I’ve done a little decorating lately. FOR FALL!! I love fall home decor. It makes the house so cozy and warm. I’ve shared a full apartment tour before and we live in a really amazing apartment complex in Lubbock called Park East. It’s the perfect space for Josh and I but it’s definitely small. There’s not TOO much space to decorate with so this is how I did our fall home decor for our smaller space. [Read more…]
Josh and I have been living together the past 4 months. It’s been amazing, challenging, and so fun. We’ve had our ups and downs but nonetheless, it’s been everything I wanted. YEP, people aren’t lying when they say living with a man is different. And I can imagine for Josh, living with me is a lot different as well. A good different though I must say. Josh is my absolute best friend and I adore him. You definitely get to know the other person on a whole different level when you’re living together. [Read more…]
It’s a new week, let’s get it! This week is going to be a busy, but good one. If you follow along on IG, I share a little bit of insight on our meals every once in awhile. I don’t really follow a strict diet but I try to eat as plant-based as possible as well as tons of protein. I try to eat some sort or fruits and veggies daily but my body also requires a ton of protein in it. Josh and I eat ground beef, ground turkey, or chicken with every meal. I also love a good Salmon night, we try to eat that at least once a week. [Read more…]
Hi friends! Hope your Wednesday is off to a great start (or ending great… depending on when you’re reading this.) I’ve had so many really sweet DM’s lately asking about my post-grad life, how I’m doing, etc. Whenever I run into friends in Lubbock, everyone always asks how I’m handling working full time, if I’m still happy that I graduated, how’s my blog, etc. SO many great questions and I love answering them. I figured it was time for a little update on all of that so here we are. [Read more…]
Welcome, welcome!! 🙂 It feels like y’all are all coming over for a wine night haha… or at least, let’s just pretend that lol? This weekend was a fun but crazy one. We got to see Josh’s mom and brothers and my sister is still living with us. BUT, welcome to Josh and I’s home tour! We live at Park East Living in Lubbock, Texas. It’s a really fabulous apartment building and we feel really fortunate to live in a 2-bedroom apartment. I’ve shown y’all our bedroom, this is our living room, and I’ll show y’all my office in a few weeks. This apartment is small, but it’s the perfect space for us two (well… and the cats and dog.)

Hi loves! I’m back with more engagement things. Did I tell y’all our wedding hashtag yet!? At first it was #meanttobemartinez but I had a sweet follower on IG share a fun one that I loved so much more. #madformartinez!! I love this because my blog goes my “Audrey MAD Stowe” The mad is for Madison but I love how it plays with both of our names. I shared our proposal story a couple of weeks ago and wanted to pop back in and have Josh share how he designed my engagement ring as well as some ring trends. [Read more…]
