This luxe crop top is so fun to wear to and from the gym! It comes in multiple colors, and I think Alo is *such* a cute brand.  My leggings, sports bra, and this luxe crop top are all Alo and they’re all great quality! These high waist leggings are ‘coated’ and somewhat glossy, so you can wear them with boots for winter outfits too!

    Hi Grace! I follow your blong and Insta almost religiously, and am very inspired by you to get fit and live a healthier lifestyle.

Also, any beginners tips would be very very much appreciated! Thank you!! Xoxo Destanie

10/27/18 Mr. & Mrs. White

There’s not a day that goes by when I don’t feel so blessed to be Jordan’s wife. He is my everything. These photos and video are the sweetest reminder of our love for one another. So, grab a cup of coffee, pull up a seat, and try not to bawl your eyes out (because I know we did). Every time we look through our photos and watch our video, we cry the happiest tears.

The Proposal

It’s crazy what can happen in a year. I met the love of my life and the rest is history. I was having a hard time ending this post, because frankly, I think I could talk about that evening forever. Then I realized that this post doesn’t have an ending, but instead, a beginning. Thank you so much for all of the love, excitement, and gratitude.

Dark Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

One of my favorite things to do in the fall is bake my dark chocolate chip pumpkin bread! I’ve made it *so* many times for me, J, and friends & family. It’s moist, decadent, and super easy to make! It also makes for a great DIY housewarming gift.

I’m just an everyday gal who can go from gym to glam in record timing. I run on sarcasm & coffee on the weekdays and sass & vino on the weekends! I strive to stay fit, stylish, and healthy, while also trying to be the very best version of myself (sounds easy enough, right?).   MEET GRACE ⟶
