The holidays are pretty much here which means if you haven’t started your holiday shopping you better get to it before you find yourself in a Jingle All the Way situation! I know the holidays can get hectic so I wanted to offer a simple gift that covers a good amount of the bases.
When it comes to gift-giving I’m pretty confident when I say that I give good gifts. While I tend to plan ahead and look for signs of things a person needs, I still do all my holiday shopping from Black Friday to Christmas! I find the most deals and it’s easier for me to shop in bulk. Grab a few gifts that are universal and everyone can enjoy!
Did you miss me? Tell me, what exactly did you miss? I used to be a dickhead and ask that question whenever someone would say “omg I missed you!” It usually threw them off guard and they’d fumble over the words, trying to find something to say. But don’t worry, you don’t have to answer that, I’d just like to say I’m backkkkkkkkkkkkkk*!
Bloating, black stools, burping hiccups that don't let up, nausea, wheezing, dry cough, hoarseness, or chronic sore throat. All side effects of acid reflux, which I typically get when I lay down on my couch after eating (don’t do this) while scrolling on social media! Understandably, it was time to address my problem…I deactivated my Instagram page (disappeared from Youtube and kelsleynicole.com) for 28 days and I’m here to tell you what I’ve learned!
I had a pretty hectic summer, but it was event-filled! From concerts to social events and festivals, I can kiss this season goodbye with a great amount of satisfaction, take a peek inside my socialite summer!
I often feel that when my room is not in order, my life is not in order. Anyone else?! Studies show that having a clean room is extremely beneficial for your mental health! Here are my 2019 Spring cleaning tips for your room and your life!
Let it go! That's the song that comes to mind when I'm ice skating! Such a freeing song and often a romantic experience. If you like to be active, try ice skating this year for Valentine's Day! Nothing beats skating with under the night sky with the one you love. Looking for a place to go? Visit Bryant Park or the Central Park Rink. (You can always visit an indoor ice rink if the weather goes against ya)
I could eat at any given point in a day! So instead of cooking at home, attend a class a learn how to make a new dish... together! Cooking classes can often be great fun because you watch your dish come to life. Switch it up, get dressed up and attend a cooking class!
Classics will always be it for me! Nothing beats a candlelight dinner and a nice restaurant. Be sure to book a reservation early as everyone is most likely looking to book a table on the 14th!
Now ladies, you may not be a sports fan like he is but he will surely appreciate you for this! Take him to a sports game, whether it's his favorite team, your favorite team or a competitive team. Sitting in the stands with ya man or woman brings back first date vibes and reminds you of your love!
"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." What's more romantic than poetry? Take your lovey to a Poetry night for dinner or dessert! The dim lights, the sweet words will certainly bring a you into a romantic mood!
I've seen the Lion King more times than I can count! Broadway shows are something everyone should experience, and it would be even better on Valentine's Day!
Dance the night away with your boo at a professional dance class! I'm looking to learn Rumba and tango this year...professionally! My parents are pretty good at salsa, merengue and such but I'd like to leave these two dances to the professionals.
What plans do you have for you boo this 14th? Let me know in the comments below.

Staycation should be a bigger thing than they are! I love flying but it was honestly so nice to getaway and not deal with the hassle of the airport, Uber, ears popping, babies crying and all the other nonsense when you’re trying to fly out. I also know that some people aren’t quite ready to fly yet but she should take your vacation days sis!
Let’s start out with a bit of honesty shall we. Vegas has always been on my bucket list, not because I’m super in to anything that it has to offer, but mainly because it’s VEGAS and everyone should see it at some point of in their life. But to my surprise, I LOVED Vegas! So so much and I really do believe like LA it’s a place that I could visit regularly and not get tired of. The west coast lifestyle is always so different from the east coast and I think it’s a sweet escape to visit Vegas every once in awhile.
As for most of my travel tips, I’m going to break this trip down by budget, activities and nightlife. So if you’re looking to visit Vegas for an extended weekend then this is the post for you!
Planning trips can be both a blessing and a curse for me. Over time I've realized that what makes them worth it is the tips and tricks I can share after I travel! Looking for the best Montreal Travel Guide for first-timers? Keep reading!
The initial purpose of this spontaneous trip was creativity! A group of creatives and I wanted to go to Montreal for a photo and video shoot! Figured the city is beautiful enough that we could get a plethora of good content while there.Of course for me though, if it's my first time in a city, I want to enjoy the city. Which leads me to my must-have for every trip I'm on — an itinerary.
I like to save! It's something I inherited from my mom, saving money is like hitting the jackpot for us. Here are some times on how I planned a trip to Barcelona and Ibiza on a budget.I decided I wanted to go back to Spain in November. It was a promise I made to myself five years ago after studying abroad in Barcelona. Making that a promise a reality and affordable means that I had to plan ahead.
