Modern Witch Aethetic for @thedisneybound’s #The Modern Witch Aethetic for @thedisneybound’s #TheDisneyBoundChallenge - I would 100% wear this if I was a witch, actually I am a witch & I love this outfit!
💖💖

Love this baby blue & hot pink combo! Perfect for a fashionable witch aesthetic or for a day in the office. Mixing and matching bright and fun colors is one of my favorite ways to style!

Surgery this morning went smoothly, I’m awake an Surgery this morning went smoothly, I’m awake and alert (for now)! 
💖💖
💖I had surgery today to fix my blown out ACL & torn Meniscus ⛷, so that also involved harvesting the tendon from my quad 🦵and OH BOY! I thought I was prepared for the post op pain and I was not🥴, I was crying 😭so much in my dreary state that the nurse had to wake me up to help me manage. Unfortunately, they also discovered that the meniscus tear was more significant than the MRI showed & needed not just revision but actual repair🪡, so I’ll be on crutches for 3-4 weeks and non weight bearing on my left side for the same amount of time. 
{{swipe to see my crying/relieved face once the painkillers finally kicked in#}}
💖kyle has been an absolute godsend, Kroger didn’t fill my pain medicine until after my surgery today so he was able to pick that up, and got me some healthy tasty treats! This man knows I love raspberries more than flowers 🥰. Alsoooo having his strength to help hold me up physically is super helpful! #KatyAndKyle
💖Thank you to the @peachtree_orthopedics and @piedmonthealth hospital teams for taking such good care of me today 💕

Of course we forgot to get pics together 🤦🏼‍♀️, but it was filled with delicious food, both on Edison/Broadway (@camposslc & @roc.taco ), the amazing homemade vegetarian food Jennifer cooked for us - including eggs from their pet chickens!, and @tasteofutah’s doughnut tasting 🤤🤤🤤

Part 2 is here!!! This time, @itsabbysworldafter Part 2 is here!!! 

This time, @itsabbysworldafterall and I are explaining why #gifted and #hosted ARE NOT SUFFICIENT DISCLOSURES!

Today we are covering some examples/scenarios of things that ARE NOT FTC COMPLAINT and addressing WHY they don’t meet the FTC guidelines! This is another MUST READ! 

After posting the first part of this collab, we got a ton of questions, so we plan on continuing this series. @itsabbysworldafterall is throwing a link to a Google Form in her stories (it’s at the top of my blog post too!) so if you have questions you’d like for myself, Abby, or our FTC Contact to answer, FILL OUT THAT FORM 😉

ATTN CONTENT CREATORS (& Small Shops/Brands) THIS ATTN CONTENT CREATORS (& Small Shops/Brands) THIS POST IS FOR YOU!

⁉️I’ve gotten a lot of questions about compliance with the FTC regarding advertising as influencers & content creators

👯‍♀️so I teamed up with @itsabbysworldafterall , interviewed lawyers👩🏼‍💼👨🏽‍💼 INSIDE the Federal Trade Commission, and came up with answers to help you PROTECT YOURSELF against legal troubles when working with companies! 

If you ever post content (or work with creators) that involves one or more of the following things:
💗 Free/Gifted Item(s)
💗 Free/Hosted Meals/Hotels
💗 Paid Content at all

YOU NEED TO CLICK THE LINK IN MY BIO to read PART ONE (of a two part series) that Abby 👩🏼‍💻👩🏻‍💻& I worked on together!

Our second part (dropping later this week) will cover commonly misused verbiage (spoiler alert...GIFTED & HOSTED aren’t FTC compliant) & why they aren’t good! (We also asked the FTC if we HAVE to hashtag these words... we got you guys!)

Please click the link in my bio (or Abby’s) & SHARE this resource with any content creators or brands who may need it! 💗

Happy March everyone! Last month I literally poste Happy March everyone! Last month I literally posted 6 times—and most of those photos were shot in January... I think that’s the least since I created this account 3 years ago- BUT it was a great month! Just really immersed myself in life & work! (& finally blogging again!)
✨✨✨
I was traveling a TON for work- but of course can’t really go anywhere when I do... we did take a few minutes out for Valentine’s weekend and even though we don’t normally celebrate much, we actually had a super fun weekend, with a late lunch at @bartacolife then fondue & cocktails at @yebobeachhaus 😍. It’s been nice being able to take these little break outs and tune out life with Kyle 💕
✨✨
How was your February?? This month I’m refocusing on the blog with a few fun posts coming! Check out with my collab with @itsabbysworldafterall tomorrow 🤩🤩🤩

This one was SO MUCH FUN to put together! 

👩🏼‍💻This is another bound that was fun to wear to work (without the lipstick) obviously. 

💋Although the animated version looks a little different, this make up look was inspired by the Helena Bosnjak Carter version. Although, nobody should be surprised that I love the @onceabcofficial version!

❤️The Queen of Hearts is one of the good villains! I love when movies have a clear-cut but quirky bad guy & the QOH is no different. 

🌹anybody else ever wonder why she wants to paint the roses red? I think she likes the color of blood & that’s also why she wants to decapitate people 😂. Why do you think??

💔this @thedisneybound was inspired by @colormemagic / #ColorMeValentine prompt of #MakeItRed! 

👗I’ve gotten much mileage out of this red @stitchfix dress for bounds!! I love being able to reuse ♻️ pieces for multiple bounds, not only is it economical 💵, but after giving away FIFTEEN trash bags of clothes beteeen Kyle & I, I realize how much better for the environment it is!

On the good side, the Cancer personality is loyal, On the good side, the Cancer personality is loyal, protective, intuitive, and caring. On the bad side, Cancers are overly sensitive, moody, and vindictive.

🦀Today’s #ColorMeValentine / @colormemagic prompt is:
#WhatsYourSign ♋️🦀

🦀So it’s mostly the negatives that I think Merida embodies: she is overly sensitive to her mother’s criticisms, moody literally the whole movie—but she’s a teen so I’ll give her a pass, and vindictive, I mean, she turns her mom in to a BEAR 🐻 ! 

🦀do you think Merida is a Cancer? Or which sign would she identify as??

🦀I love wearing this Merida Bound, or really any Merida look for work. She always gives me such BRAVEry to enter a courtroom or stand up to the opposition. I am empowered by her bold jewel tones & love that she rocks the plaid, like this @marvelousdarlingdesigns headband 🤗

Happiness is a choice 💖 💖N E W B L O G P O Happiness is a choice 💖
💖N E W  B L O G  P O S T💖
I feel like this entire past year I have been on a journey of self-discovery learning (relearning?) that happiness is a choice. I can choose to be happy, sometimes it’s bit as easy as it sounds, sometimes it involves being selfish, sometimes being selfless, but always understanding that I can control my perspective on a situation (& yes, I do address “toxic positivity”)
💖💖
This whole post really came about when I noticed a lot of people commented on the fact that I seem happy all the time, to which I want to respond: “well yeah, I choose to be, I work really hard for my happiness & the alternative I’d bring miserable... why wouldn’t I chose happiness?”
💖💖
It might sound odd, but when I started consciously choosing happiness, what I found most of all is and incredibly freeing feeling of the weight lifted from my chest. You can read more about my theories, choices, & search fr serenity on the blog 💕

I was having major writers block the past 6 weeks and @itsabbysworldafterall recommended throwing back to previous vacays, then @marvelousdarlingdesigns suggested comparing last year’s festival of the arts to the offerings this year
💖💖💖
Well, the new blog post is nothing about that, instead, when I opened iPhoto, I saw this sign: #TheMagicOfPossibility & was finally inspired!!! The post is published now, link in bio 🥰

Inspired by today’s prompts of #BringMeFlowers & Inspired by today’s prompts of #BringMeFlowers & #SelfLove, I picked up some flowers on the way to work, just for me, to brighten my office 💖
💖💖
Thanks @colormemagic & @thegirlwiththedolewhiptattoo for hosting #ColorMeValentine & #BoundToLoveDisney, respectively, and inspiring me to do something bright & colorful for my own office! Since these are both style challenges, keep my flower embroidered jeans to go along with my bouquet!
💖💖
I also took the opportunity to continue brightening my space by writing a #NoteToSelf or five on stickies and plastering them across my desk!!
