I love that this is a mix of super comfortable outfits and some festive looks. We’ve pretty much locked down here again so… not really doing anything or going anywhere besides taking the dogs for (loooooong) walks and the occasional grocery store run. C’est la vie. WEEK OF OUTFITS 12.15.20 TUESDAY As this look may…
I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since I did my last Beauty Empties post. This isn’t a fully comprehensive list– but just what I remembered to save!!! Whoops. Clearly, I’m no beauty blogger. But wanted to share some of the products that have gotten me through the past year (which, insanely enough, is…
With winter absolutely here and months of cold ahead of us, I wanted to do this post about Dudley Stephens. I love my Dudley Stephens fleece turtlenecks. They are absolutely “trendy” as far as Instagram is concerned– they’re everywhere– but it’s for good reason. I got my first one three years ago and I’ve been a…
One of my absolute favorite things about the winter is skiing. On paper, skiing is not something I ever thought I’d enjoy. But lo and behold, I love it! I really love everything about it– the exercise, the fresh air, the scenery, the camaraderie. And I also really love après ski. I mean who wouldn’t though?…
This week was kind of “magical.” I FINALLY rounded the corner in terms of my work stress (which always peaks the two weeks following Thanksgiving) and slowly dipped my toes into feeling the holiday spirit. I think I pinpointed that I was feeling a bit of grief over this year. Particularly how the holidays will…
S’Mores Bar I shot these photos with Elsa a few weeks ago for Talbots. We’re featured on their blog and I had a sponsored post on Instagram, but I also wanted to share the photos here. They asked if we wanted to do the campaign together and I couldn’t ask for a better partner in…
This post is sponsored by Shopstyle and Backcounty! 15 THINGS TO DO OUTSIDE THIS WINTER WITH BACKCOUNTRY Last month, I discussed my philosophy about getting outside no matter what the weather is like! In short, I like to adopt the Scandinavian phrase: “There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes.” When you’re dressed…
This is not the most inspiring week of outfits, I will admit. It was a pretty big grinding work week, it was freezing outside, and we had quite a bit of rain too! So… my usual uniform of jeans and sweaters to the rescue. And lots of cashmere. I know cashmere is an investment, but man…
Hello book lovers and friends of book lovers. I like to joke that books are my love language but I don’t think it’s actually a joke! The smell of a bookstore? The excitement over having a full stack of books to read on your nightstand. The pang of finishing a book and having to say…
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
In that final home stretch of 2024 and waffling between wanting to plan out every second of my day/week/month and needing to also just fly by the seat of my pants. Holding on for dear life and telling myself to just enjoy the ride 🤪
When the boys go down for bed, sometimes it feels akin to crossing the finish line of a marathon! With my @therabody Theragun Sense, now I’m able to unwind and relax from the #WorkoutCalledLife. With step-by-step prompts on an LCD screen (and accompanying app), the Theragun Sense guides you through different recoveries depending on what your goals are. Tonight, I’m prepping for restful sleep with a six-minute guided massage! #TherabodyPartner
Halloween 2024 was one for the memory books 🏈 Rory’s first Halloween!! Jack had a blast, Rory loved tagging along, and Mike and I couldn’t stop smiling 🤍 I don’t know how many years I’ll be able to convince the boys to coordinate their costumes so really taking advantage- I bought Jack’s football player costume (customized!) and sewed Rory’s football bubble myself (Jack asked if he could throw him, which was a resounding and firm, “no.”). Now time to raid Jack’s stash 😛
