Nordstrom Sale Purchases

In Fashion by Madison MayberryLeave a Comment

I don’t tend to go “all out” for Nordstrom’s N Sale, but every year I pick a piece or two that’s a bit higher quality/higher price point to invest in at a great price heading into the fall. I love the N Sale for that reason! This year I picked the items listed below, heavy on the jeans (because I need some for fall that fit well post baby) and a couple sweaters along with a pair of shoes that … Read More

My Clean Skincare Routine

In Family, Fashion by Madison MayberryLeave a Comment

Years ago, I had a goal of developing a “big girl skincare routine.” It seemed silly to me when I said it out loud, but I longed to feel better in my skin and enjoy the products I was using. As I went through a series of miscarriages, I also became increasingly interested in making sure my skincare was clean and free of toxins, hormone disrupting ingredients and more. Over the years of partnering with Beautycounter, I’ve come to love … Read More

Let’s start with a bit of background on my complicated nail polish history…. Most people probably know me as someone who does not care for nail polish on my fingernails – my husband would probably even tell you that! He has seen me paint my nails 10,000 times, only to remove the polish two minutes later. Why? Well, the answer is twofold. First, I like things to look neat and put together. Which means the second my nails smudge it … Read More

My (Clean) Self-Tanning Routine

In Fashion by Madison MayberryLeave a Comment

When it comes to sun exposure, I tend to fall somewhere in the middle. Skin cancer runs in my family, so I am careful to get regular yearly full-body checkups with my dermatologist. In the same breath, I tend to run a little on the lower end for Vitamin D and appreciate the value of regular time in the sun for its benefits in terms of Vitamin D production. Like most things in life, finding a healthy middle ground is … Read More
