Favorite Instagram account to follow:

Annie

I love following @hannahbronfman, who is probably the most badass fitness and beauty inspiration around!

R&S

R&S

Your motto in life:

Annie

My motto is really a single word: “arete” (which is Greek), meaning virtue and excellence.

R&S

Your last great read and why you enjoyed it:

Annie

The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down is a fantastic book about a Hmong child with epilepsy and the ensuing culture clash between her family and her American doctors. It was incredibly interesting to learn about the Hmong culture, and I felt this book was one of those that really does make you “laugh and cry at the same time.”

R&S

The beauty product found in your bag at all times:

Annie

I have at least 3 lip products in my purse at all times (last time I checked, there were 6)! My favorites are the Sugar lip treatment in Passion and MAC lipstick in Extended Play.

R&S

The pair of jeans you will never grow tired of:

Annie

I’ve been really happy with a pair of skinny jeans I got on clearance from Joe Fresh! They’re probably the only pair I’ve found that fits really well around my knees.

R&S

Nail color currently on your hands and feet:

Annie

I’m currently rocking oxblood colored nails on my hands, and baby pink on my feet!

R&S

Where does your credit card get the most use?

Annie

I tend to spend a lot at Nordstrom Rack on Black Friday or post-Christmas sales. I think the trick is to go to a store in the suburbs – huge inventory, and not as picked-over. ;)

R&S

Your current Netflix addiction:

Annie

My husband and I are really into House of Cards right now.

R&S

The trend you hope never goes out of style:

Annie

I hope fitted blazers never go out of style! They’re surprisingly versatile, and a chic layering piece.
