This post is sponsored by MacKenzie-Childs! I’m absolutely loving everything MacKenzie-Childs has to offer– throughout the year, but especially during the holidays. You may remember last year my dining room was taken over by MacKenzie-Childs favorites and this year I’m here to share a gift guide! The only thing better than collecting MacKenzie-Childs pieces for…
Last week was equal parts exhausting (parenting, work, pre-holiday prep) and fun (more sourdough, playtime with the boys, hot chocolates every night). Pretty relaxed outfits reflecting it all! LAST WEEK’S WIN: I went to my friend’s (beyond incredible) house last week to give her some of my sourdough starter and bake some bread together. I’m so…
After sharing my gift guide last week, I thought it would be fun to put together a wishlist for myself. This is a delusional wishlist, to be clear. I have pretty much everything I could ever possibly want, and then some. And I’m not just saying that, I really mean it. I titled this my…
I’m in the thick of holiday campaigns and prep for Cyber Week. Feeling good about where I am though, which is a nice feeling. Lots of work ahead, but every day a little bit closer to the “light at the end of the tunnel.” Even though I’ve been doing this for so many years and…
This post is sponsored by Printique. One of my most asked questions on Instagram is what service I use to print my photos. After trying other photo printed services, I discovered Printique and I was blown away by the quality– truly, it’s next level. I feel so passionate about Printique’s quality that I joke about…
The holiday festivities are approaching, and I always love an excuse to get a little dressed up around this time of year! Before the holiday parties start creeping up on your calendar, I wanted to share a few festive dresses perfect for a special occasion to help you avoid some of the holiday stress. You…
I hit publish on my 2024 gift guides on Sunday, so if I wasn’t in the holiday mindset before, I definitely am now! Despite the fact that we’re almost halfway through November and the weather is still pretty mild, I wanted to round up some of the best women’s holiday sweaters. I tried to aim…
Last week was a bit of a mess for me. I felt like I couldn’t come up for air with everything going on and I was so grateful to wake up on Sunday feeling a little refreshed and ready for a new week. LAST WEEK’S WIN: The biggest win for me is a little superficial…
Instead of releasing gift guides one by one, this year I’m just consolidating everything into ONE POST. Honestly, over the years I’ve honed in on what makes a good gift guide. (I think at this point I have a decade’s worth of data to draw from!) I’m hoping that this makes your shopping easier and…
#ZarbeesPartner @zarbees is helping us get the best night of sleep possible! Our sleep routines got shaken up after Daylight Savings Time ended, so we are doing what we can to get back on track and get back into good sleep hygiene routines. I’m keeping Zarbees Children’s Sleep Gummies with Melatonin on hand and we added Zarbees Calming Bedtime Spray into our nightly routine– with calming natural lavender and chamomile to set the mood for a restful night of sleep. Plus, with no artificial fragrances, parabens, or petroleum I can rest easy, too. Buy now on Amazon! #FromOurHivetoYours
✨ leave a comment with “SKIN” and I’ll send you all the products mentioned here ✨
I turned 35 in September and while I’ve always tried to take good care of my skin I wanted to really prioritize skincare from the inside out. At this point, I’m not doing any kind of injectables (not that I’m against them broadly speaking btw... just sharing that I haven’t done anything) and I don’t want to do anything invasive. I have made some small adjustments to my everyday life though that has made a difference. In just a few months, I really think my skin has never looked better (and I include infancy here because I unfortunately had baby acne ) and I’m really feeling good:
– Fresh washcloths after cleansing skin (@weezietowels “makeup” washcloths are cute, super soft, and very practical)
– @omniluxled Omnilux Contour Face (this red light therapy mask has CHANGED the game for my skin. I use it 3-4x a week and it only takes 10 minutes per session!)
– @jolieskinco filtered showerhead (I’ve noticed a difference in both my skin AND hair)
– @ritual HyaCera (one capsule every night– it works from the inside out to help reduce the appearance of fine lines)
While I think my skin looks great on its own right now (🙌🏻 love to say that!), it also is serving as the best base for makeup. Sharing my current everyday routine:
– @supergoop Mineral Unseen Sunscreen
– @summerfridays Sheer Skin Tint (shade 1)
– @merit Bronze Balm Sheer Sculpting Bronzer (shade clay)
– @saiebeauty Dew Blush Liquid Cream (shade chilly)
– @jonesroadbeauty Shimmer Face Oil (shade cool rose)
– @sephora collection Eyebrow Gel (shade ebony)
– @honest Extreme Length Mascara
– @urbandecaycosmetics 24/7 Glide On Eyeliner (shade demolition)
– @iliabeauty Balmy Lip Tint (shade lullaby)
girlhood 🫶🏻 find friends who want to do the same little hobbies as you! Went over to @shihstitches’ house yesterday to give her some sourdough starter and go through the basics (I’m *very much* a beginner so I told her to take my lesson with a grain of salt)
PS convinced her to make an IG account! @blueskyehouse
PPS she’s convincing me I really do need a fancy range like her ✨ stunning ✨ @lacanche.usa
Just a girl searching for the perfect digital planner solution. What I have right now is working, technically speaking, but I’m working across platforms and ideally I’d love everything to be in one place. I also have calendar synesthesia (IYKYK) and I physically feel myself in space moving through my calendar, which makes finding a planner difficult because I want/need it to match up with what I see in my head I know this sounds insane but if you also “see” time, you know what I mean!
Right now I’m using:
– Google Sheets to track campaigns/business line items
– Google docs for writing/brainstorming
– Google/Apple Calendars (somehow they’re integrated and I don’t ask questions because it just works...)
– Apple Notes for daily to-dos, random note keeping, and quick jot downs
– Apple Reminders for “must dos” esp w/ deadlines
– Dropbox for photo/file storage
I’m craving a good ole fashioned paper planner but the reality is that I need it to be digital. I need it to integrate with my calendar and remind me of tasks. I need to be able to access it on my computer when I’m working at my desk and on my phone when I’m on the go. I need structure and flexibility?
Does the perfect digital planner exist?! Do I need to overcome my overwhelm and tackle @notionhq? Is an @apple iPad the solution? Do I just keep doing what I’m doing because it’s technically working?
If you’ve stuck around to the end, I appreciate you 🫡
I created a beautiful, custom silk photo album from @printique_by_adorama to remember my sweet dog Hamilton, who passed away earlier this year. Their layflat album captured the colors and details perfectly, making each photo feel so special. It’s a keepsake I’ll cherish forever, and I’m so grateful for the quality and love they put into every page. #printiquepartner
… and yet you must. This week has been the hardest yet. Pressure from work, pressure from myself, pressure from the world. The magnitude of reality feels too much and too heavy. Showing up for my children though when I can barely show up for myself.
We’ve noticed an improvement in Teddy’s vitality and digestion since switching to @primalpetfoods Kibble in the Raw! It’s the easiest way to give him the benefits of raw nutrition without losing the convenience of dry kibble since it’s freeze dried into bites and completely scoopable. You would never guess he’s 11 years old with these moves at the park! #primalpetfoodspartner #ad
