I couldn’t help but wonder… can a girl love a good sale and still build a solid financial future?
This week I hit a milestone: 13 newsletters published and 100 subscribers. 💻💅
When I got laid off in March, I did what any self-respecting woman with too many Google Docs and a lot of feelings would do, I started writing. About saving. About spending. About resisting the urge to impluse buy at every turn.
Hot Girls Save Money is where I share how to make smart choices without cutting out the things you love — whether that’s skincare, travel, or overpriced candles that smell like ambition.
Because maybe you really can have it all… as long as you know where your money’s going.

The Oxford Film Festival, wow, what a weekend. We took home two awards: Best Documentary Short & Best Made in Mississippi Doc Short 💥@pleaseaskforit . Screening at this festival has been a long-time dream and I am so happy that it came true. We had such an incredible time meeting so many talented filmmakers and passionate supporters, many of whom came to our after-party! Huge thanks to @dswider and @endofallmusic for making my ‘after-party in a record store’ dream come true. To @quartzwatches for driving down and DJing 45s. And to our generous sponsors @proudlarrys@circleandsquarebrewing@thelyricoxford for making it an event not to miss with local food and drinks. And finally to my best girl @tttinabopper for being an incredible partner for a whirlwind trip. 🏆💫🏆
Another premiere, another pinstriped suit jacket — but this time with my best friend of 23 years by my side. Swipe to the end to see us as as our teenage selves. So lucky to have a Mimi in my life for all these years. IKYKY 🪽👯♀️🫶
Right before the holidays I learned that one of our friends passed away unexpectedly. I really struggled with it - she was young with so much life ahead of her. It reminded me that while time feels infinite, our time here is limited. I have always struggled with the quiet moments in between the celebrations but I’m looking to take a new approach in this year- to see time as a luxury, something to savor rather than rush through. Sharing a few of the sweetest moments from 2023. Ten images are truly not enough to capture this year. 💌
October appreciation post. My favorite month of the year ended up being the most packed/eventful/exciting one yet. Thank you to all the friends who celebrated my birthday with me early and late❤️🔥🥂🎂
Please Ask for It had its Memphis premiere last Saturday. When I started editing this project during the pandemic I felt an immense urgency to finish the film and release it while Mr. Caldwell was still in good health and could come to the premiere. I am so pleased to say that, we did it! Caldwell arrived at the theater with his crew of family and friends from Holly Springs and it was a truly magical experience to watch the film all together at the iconic Circuit Playhouse. Thanks to @indiememphis for making it all possible. 🎥🍿✨
