I know I’ve mentioned this numerous times on the blog and on Twitter and to really anyone who has ever sat down with me for more than five minutes: I love Kate White. She’s one of the women who I am so, so thankful to have had cross paths with. I definitely knew of Kate White (hello, she’s the…
It’s so weird traveling for a week and then coming back with zero concept of time. I hardly knew what day it was all week and I certainly didn’t know what time it was on any given day. Operating on a four-hours at a time basis is pretty much all I could muster. But it…
I was so honored when Hilary from Dean Street Society asked me to be a part of the Happy Hour Blog Tour to start the conversation about her new book The 4-Part Entrepreneur Cocktail. Throughout the month of November a bunch of bloggers are starting conversations about blogging… from motivation to monetization. I get asked…
I try to run through a list of things I’m thankful for every night before I go to bed. (One of the best ways to fall asleep, especially after a long/stressful day!) But I think there’s something especially great about carving (see what I did there?) an extra day out of the year to truly…
I’m excited to have Maxie back at it for another Maxie Monday! This is such a good, relevant one too. Especially with the New Year right around the corner (two and a half weeks away!), this couldn’t have been written at a better time. Maxie is a pro at all things planning, and mission statements are at…
This is a really special post and one that I think has so much meaning. And it’s something that absolutely everyone can do in their own way. Hannah (a longtime “Internet Friend”) is one of the sweetest and most thoughtful people I know… oh, and an absolutely incredible writer. Honestly, she has a way with words….
I finally feel like I’m in the groove of working from home. The first week after leaving my “desk” job was so jam-packed with back to back meetings, I don’t think I really realized just how different it would be. And then the second week came and I was smacked in the face with the harsh…
I hope you don’t mind how much I post about books. To be honest, books have really been the best kind of “therapy” for me in terms of what relieves stress and reduces anxiety. I get most of my inspiration from books, my motivation from books, my entertainment from books. I find friends within the…
I really don’t like listening to videos of me speaking. And it’s not just because I think my voice sounds differently in my head. It’s because I use verbal crutches… a lot of verbal crutches. The “likes,” the “ums,” and the “uhhhs” are really bad. Another thing I’ve picked up and realized that I’m doing?…
Once The College Prepster, always The College Prepster. I will always love a classic outfit from @vineyardvinesā the perfect pieces to kick off my fall wardrobe. Find this outfit, including this must-have wool skirt, in my LTK Shop. https://liketk.it/4Rcup #ad #edsftg
With Jack in preschool and Rory in daycare part time, I am clicking back into gear with work. A little scared to see how it goes and also excited to dive back in. I really do love my job. And as we move into the fourth quarter, things are already heating up- I feel ready to take it on. Before things get even crazier, I also wanted to extend a HUGE thank you to YOU. Whether weāre commiserating about ruined baby naps, chatting about what to wear to a wedding, laughing about being nude and lewd (š¤), sharing memes about American Girl dolls, or adding another bow product to our shopping carts, Iām just so glad youāre here. Iāve been on the internet for so long and can confidently say I have the best group of women following along. Weāve gone through so many life stages together. š«¶š»

send this to your best friend š«¶š»
@simply_elsa and I met five years ago when I moved to the suburbs. I quite literally slid into her DMs after I saw that she was geotagging a nearby town and seemingly liked cute blue and white things as much as I did- that felt like enough to at least start a friendship with at the time! Thereās something extra special about forming friendships in adulthood. It feels like a conscious choice more than just circumstantial. š«¶š» We help each other with work, with motherhood. Navigating the tough parts of life in your 30s and venting to each other with zero judgment. Sending videos and memes with no additional commentary necessary (a language of its own). Now our children play together (!!!) and itās just a whole new world there too. So glad I sent her that DM asking for a coffee date five years agoā¦ that coffee shop we went to might not be around anymore but our friendship sure is thriving!

Now that school is back in session and summer travels have come to a close, I can feel my social calendar filling up a bit more. Pickleball, needlepoint club, ice cream/library playdates, GNOs at Chiliās... Even as an extreme introvert, Iām kind of excited to have places to go and people to see and the outfits to wear again. šāļøš¤āØ (Comment āfall outfitā and Iāll send you a link to everything Iām wearing!)
Go sports! ā½ļøāš»š„ š¤ Just me and my boys on a misty Saturday morning getting muddy and having fun
