During our much-needed getaway after hectic work schedules and family visits, the hubby suggested mini golf as a fun date-night activity & I couldn’t resist a second chance at the game after not playing for two years! Speaking from personal experience, a little healthy competition keeps our relationship interesting! We love to laugh and have a great time teasing each other when it comes to … Continue reading MDM Style Diaries – Mini Golfing in the Mountains
I’ve always thought it would be so fun to do a pay phone photoshoot, and as we were driving through North Park the other day, I found one that was against a bright orange wall! Needless to say, we stopped and after a little (or a lot) of sanitizing, we got some great shots! Also, I’m dying to mention, my bag is actually a REAL … Continue reading MDM Style Diaries – “Calling All Fashionistas!”
Let’s be honest: who doesn’t love designer fashion? I know I do! But, loving high-priced goods while trying to stay on a budget doesn’t always allow for a happy ending… Or does it? I will say, this post is not sponsored (though I may earn a small commission on the products linked below at no cost to you!), but I really love telling people about … Continue reading Weekly Fashion Finds – Designer Duds Under $500
The hubby and I wanted to get away for the weekend, so we headed up to our favorite hideaway in Lake Tahoe! Unfortunately we had to cut our trip short due to the forest fires in the area shutting down the hiking trails, but we still had a great time relaxing, eating some good food, and squeezing a few hikes in before the smoke got … Continue reading MDM Style Diaries – @ The Stardust Motel
This year especially, I’m beyond enjoying summer and I’m so not ready for it to end! I’m holding onto every bit of the warm weather that I can, and that’s been influencing a lot of my style lately! Sandals in general seem to be having more of a moment than ever right now; from strappy 90s-inspired styles to the ever-popular pool slide, open-toes are the … Continue reading Three Sandals You Need Before Summer’s Over
Old Town, San Diego is one of the most popular spots in the city for Mexican food, local art and culture, and historic buildings. I’ve been coming here ever since my college days, and our favorite local Mexican food chain Miguel’s has a really unique location here! After a long day of paddle boarding and working, the hubby and I headed out for a little … Continue reading MDM Style Diaries – Old Town, San Diego
Suddenly I’ve been seeing these enamel and crystal loopy-vine rings on my socials, and I must admit, I’m obsessed! They’re all at once playful and chic, heartening back to the Y2K trend that’s been taking this year by storm while also seeming inherently “grown-up”. I was so excited to snag me one… that is, until I saw the price… The designer who started this trend … Continue reading Designer Dupes – The Tendril Ring

I’ve never been a huge bag fan (shoes were always more my thing), but Oliveve Handbags is THE brand that changed it all for me! I discovered Oliveve Handbags on ShopBop in the inaugural year of MDM. My first bag of theirs was a sunny yellow leopard-printed haircalf wristlet that I had gotten on an end-of-season sale for close to 60% off. Something about its … Continue reading Brand Spotlight: Oliveve Handbags
