“Best Of” Holiday Gift Guide: Top Places to Shop, Denim, Athleisure, Shoes & Basics Must-Haves

Hey, friends! I just arrived back home from the most incredible trip! This was my third year offering an incentive trip to the directors on my team, and we spent it in Temecula, California at the Vaquero Resort. It was truly a dream. I’ll be sharing more about my time there, my team/best friends, and more soon.

However, today we are continuing on with the “Best Of” Holiday Gift Guide Series because if you didn’t realize yet, Christmas is currently THREE WEEKS AWAY. *Don’t panic though!*
