I am many things, but first I am always human. When I first started blogging three and a half years ago I had no idea how many bloggers there were. On my personal Instagram account, I only followed my friends and family, no one else. No celebs, reality TV stars, actors, authors – I did not follow a soul that I didn’t personally know. So naturally, when I started my Simply by Simone account I started following other bloggers and my favorite celebrities. Which brought me deep into the black hole of personal comparison. Yes, some people are well off.…
Save your money for rosé by shopping these steals below! In honor of paycheck Friday I’ve rounded up my favorite fifty items under fifty dollars!

If you’re looking for some fruit print items, check out the simply curated post here…
^showroom view goals, am I right?! The SVP of Sam Edelman is taking a stab at a solo act by launching her namesake label Libby Edelman. Last week I got a sneak peek of all there is to come and trust me, it’s good. The capsule collection is set to launch next Friday, July 14th in stores and online exclusively at JCPenny. Followed by a full collection launching this September. Created for the hardworking woman on the go, each item can easily be paired with the next. Even the prints are easy to mix and match. And if you need…
Being a hard worker and also being a nice person should directly correlate. The harder you work the nicer you treat others. But that’s not always the case. More often now than ever do I talk to my friends about this topic. Some of the main issues are coworkers not making each other feel included, people not wanting to work collaboratively and seasoned employees not taking into consideration less experienced employees views. Please don’t take this topic the wrong way, the last thing I want this to sound like is a millennial complaining that people aren’t nice to me. Plus I…
Serious question: When it comes to gingham what came first, picnic blankets or clothing? Whatever the answer may be, what I do know is I love picnics as much as I love a gingham print. I’ve personally gone overboard, and I definitely don’t recommend it. This is only my opinion but I think that the fun check print may not last that long in the fashion world. Why? Because think of it like when a radio overplays an amazing song. You loved the song the first ten times you heard it in the past three days, now you’re over it.…
It’s no secret that humane, natural skincare products are in. No one wants chemicals seeping into their skin or their products being tested on animals. Thus making the natural skincare market explode. Before all the hype, back in 2015, Epic Blend reached out to me. They wanted to send me their high-quality lip balm that only contained “top shelf, natural ingredients”. It was the first time I thought about all the other lip balms out there. First thought, why are they specifically pointing out that theirs is natural? Second thought, what about everyone else’s products I use, are they natural??…
