I meet people ALL the time… and it seemingly never gets easier. I have picked up a few strategies along the way because, like it or not, meeting people is not only a fact of life, it’s a huge part of my job. Max and I were actually sharing some of our own tips and…
I shot these photos for a sponsored Instagram post, but the outfit was too cute not to share here! Plus, everything is 40% off right now! Woo!! So I actually bought a red coat this year after seeing a picture on Pinterest. I loved the bright pop of red for winter and so many of…
Can we just talk about the fact that September is almost over? Is it just me or did it go by extraordinarily fast? I’m actually writing this super late, it’s as “real time” blogging as it can get while still queuing it up for midnight. (PS I love my 12:00-am-EST-on-the-dot readers!) It’s been such a…
This week is not turning out how I had originally expected it to. The new “go with the flow” me is totally fine with it though because in a way it feels like I got an extra week. As exciting as my travel plans were, I would never say no to a quiet week at…
Happy Friday! This has been such a funĀ week. It’s always nice to kick off with a holiday on Monday. We hosted a backyard barbecue, which was quite fun and forced me to deep clean the apartment. (Nothing like having friends come over to be inspired to clean, ha.) I spent Tuesday playing catch up; I…
Ugh, how many times have you felt like you had NO clue what you were doing? Whether it was feeling stuck in between things, feeling inspired with where you were, or (the worst, in my opinion) feeling like a complete imposter! The thing is… it’s okay. It’s NORMAL to feel this way and it doesn’t…
I actually can’t believe it’s Friday. I have totally lost all sense of time. I keep forgetting that my birthday is tomorrow and that we have a long weekend. So basically every time I re-remember it’s a nice little surprise. On Monday night, I ventured over to Brooklyn for dinner with Meghan on her rooftop….
First… I want to kick off today’s post with a giantĀ THANK YOU I made the right decision to take a step back from the blog. Last week was really rough for me and IĀ know, turn off comments for a week, and come back with a clear head. I just want you to know how much…
Anyone else feeling slightly overwhelmed by all the sales going on? I know I am and I kind of shop online for a living. There’s justĀ so much out there right now. I’m rounding up what I consider to be the “best buys” right now to help you narrow it down. Don’t forget, you can find…
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»

A transitional outfit from @jcrew to bridge the gap between summer and fall with all of my favorite feminine touches. You can shop my whole look, including this must-have-for-fall quilted lady jacket, in my @shop.ltk shop! #injcrew #ad
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
