Alex is a multifaceted writer and blogger hailing from Orange County, California. She spent the past six years in Los Angeles as a writer/producer and news manager for a digital media company, but after being self-diagnosed with Stage 4 Road Rage and accumulating copious amounts of Kardashian knowledge, she bounced.
Alex began channeling her inner "2000s teen" as a writer and beauty editor for Tiger Beat Magazine. She is passionate about fashion and pop culture, having written and produced digital media for a more "mature" entertainment audience down the road.
She then took a drastic turn into the wedding industry while taking a stab at marketing for a photography/videography company, creating content and implementing new marketing campaigns while simultaneously ugly-crying to wedding videos in her spare time.
Alex has since expanded her writing portfolio into copywriting for a successful men's clothing brand. Some of her other work can be seen on Elite Daily, Betches and Hello Giggles. In her spare time, Alex enjoys long walks through Target and making sure her French Bulldog is living her absolute best life.

The art of cooking isn't exactly a universal skill obtained by just anyone, which likely stems from the age-old adage, "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen." While many tend to view celebrities as godlike species who walk on water and turn stone into gold, some of these icons' biggest flaws lie within the walls of a stainless-steel Samsung kitchen appliance.

Labor Day weekend has come and gone (RIP, my liver), and that means school is back in session. Tis the season for leggings disguised as pants, waiting to buy your books until halfway through the semester, and sorority rush aka the most soul-sucking, Spanx-up-your-ass, I-will-cunt-punt-a-bitch-if-I-hear-that-song-one-more-time kind of season.
It is a widely known fact that the perfect cheese and wine pairing goes together like Oreos and peanut butter, or like fuzzy socks and fall. In simpler terms, they just complete each other.
You've officially survived another winter of dreaded family holidays, surprise engagements, and disguising your 2pm blackout as "brunch" without entirely losing your dignity. But that also means that in the months between November and March, betches were busy living their best fucking lives, Instagramming cheese plates and colorful fruit cocktails, all while pulling off the ...
You've gotten through the workweek, and the night you've been waiting for has finally arrived. Endorphins are flowing, nerves are skyrocketing, and whether you're most looking forward to a big first date, a dreaded high school reunion or (let's be real) an intimate evening with Netflix, we all need a little something to take the edge off: All hail red, red wine.
When it comes to dating, I always seem to be stuck between the notion of "putting myself out there" and the idea of waiting for love to…
