Battling Hormonal Breakouts in My 30s: My Return to Spironolactone
Getting back on Spironolactone after years off of it feels like a full-circle moment—one I never thought I’d have to experience again. But after months of the worst hormonal breakouts of my life, here I am. I’m 37, and to say this has been heartbreaking is an understatement. Not only am I dealing with the inevitable signs of aging, but I’m also breaking out like a teenager? Make it make sense.

Navigating Hormonal Acne: My Skincare Journey
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I’ve been on a journey with my skin—one that’s had its ups and downs, but lately, I’ve been seeing some encouraging progress. We’re not at the finish line yet, but the improvements over the past few weeks have definitely been motivating. A few of you have reached out to ask what I’ve been doing differently since it seems like things are looking up, so I wanted to share my routine and bring you along on this part of the journey.
First, a little disclaimer: I’m definitely not a doctor (and always recommend you consult yours). But here's what my dermatologist told me: "Good old-fashioned hormonal acne." Her advice was simple: simplify my skincare routine and combine oral medication with topical treatments to see the best results.
Here’s what my routine looks like right now:

Their scents are more than perfumes, they’re olfactory journeys that transport you to places of luxury, power, and allure. Here are my absolute favorites from the collection, along with a little secret about how I create my ultimate showstopper scent.

Paula’s Picks - Jewelry That Makes the Look ✨
I’ve got an obsession with Argento Vivo’s new Panthera collection, and honestly, it’s doing all the heavy lifting for this week’s outfit. The Panthera Link Necklace, Panthera Link Bracelet, and Panthera Link Earrings are everything…bold, glam, and just edgy enough to make any look feel elevated.

Slowing Down…
This long holiday break? It threw me for a loop. Don’t get me wrong—I love the idea of a cozy, restful pause to reflect and recharge. But in practice? Let’s just say I had to face some hard truths about myself.
Here’s the reality: I’m addicted to MOVING. The quiet days with nowhere to go and nothing to do left me feeling restless, like I was missing something or falling behind. It turns out, I’m a certified busybody. I thrive on structure, productivity, and a calendar that’s packed to the brim.

I Dare You To Enter 2025 With…

Paula’s Picks - Things I Can’t Live Without
As we approach the new year, I’ve been reflecting on the little things that make life richer, easier, and more joyful—the habits, tools, and rituals that help me feel my best. These aren’t just products or practices; they’re anchors in my day-to-day life, helping me stay grounded and connected even when things get hectic.
I wanted to share them with you, not to add to your to-do list or shopping cart but to inspire you to think about what truly works for you. As we head into 2025, it’s not about overhauling everything all at once, it’s about refining what matters and curating a life that feels good to live. So, here’s a peek into the essentials that keep me thriving and aligned:

Tracing Roots
This past week, I had the privilege of traveling to Puerto Rico with my Abuela. It wasn’t just a vacation—it was a journey into our family’s roots, a chance to connect with where it all began. We visited the town where she was born, walked the streets she grew up on, and met relatives I’d only ever heard about.

ARGENTO VIVO
I’m thrilled to highlight one of our show’s sponsors and a personal favorite of mine: Argento Vivo. Their pieces are the perfect blend of timeless elegance and everyday versatility. From elegant necklaces to bold rings, Argento Vivo’s jewelry effortlessly elevates my looks whether I’m heading to work or the studio to record. Truly, their collection is a staple in my jewelry box and my life.

Paula’s Picks - Crown Affair
There’s something truly transformative about turning daily routines into rituals of self-care. When it comes to creating those moments of intentional indulgence, Crown Affair is my go-to. Their products embody everything I love about slowing down and savoring life—thoughtful design, exceptional quality, and a philosophy that celebrates taking your time.
Here are my absolute favorite Crown Affair products and why they’ve earned a permanent spot in my routine:

A Love Letter To Slowing Down
In a world that never stops moving, where productivity is glorified and busyness is a badge of honor, the idea of slowing down can feel almost radical. But this week, I found myself deeply inspired by three simple words from my conversation with Dianna Cohen, founder of Crown Affair: “Take your time.”

High/Low Nighttime Skincare Routine
You don’t need to tell me twice—skincare is expensive. Trust me, I know—I’m a woman, and I’ve been buying it for years too! As much as I love skincare, I’m always on the lookout for ways to incorporate more affordable products to help cut down the cost of maintenance. After many years and what feels like nine billion product trials, here’s what I’ve learned...

Paula’s Picks - Fallon and Ava
If you know me, you know I have a deep love for turtlenecks. Honestly, I’ve been obsessed with them since I was a kid. I can vividly remember being 5 or 6 years old, rocking a turtleneck with my little CK overalls—way before I even knew what fashion was. Then, when I started developing my style in dance school, you could always count on me to be wearing a turtleneck leotard. It’s just always been my thing.
