Sponsored post written by me for Pentel. All opinions are my own.  I absolutely love pens. There is something about using a colorful pen makes writing that much more fun. Don’t ask my husband how large my pen collection looks, because he will start laughing, but I am obsessed! What’s not to love?

Just think a list of things to do in black ink is boring, but that pop of hot pink stands out from all that black, and it tells me I need to do it … READ MORE >>

Sponsored post written by me in collaboration with JCPenney. In August, we’re all gearing up for Back-To-School, and I’m working on a game plan so I don’t get anxieties this year.
