For Sweet Lemon, I picked my top five must haves for the fall! This was really hard because I love too many things to narrow it down to only five… but here they are: LOVE!!! Unfortunately, I have none of the items. But wish lists are pretty fun to create. Like, virtual-guilt-free shopping. I’ll take…
Tipsy Skipper, a long time College Prepster favorite, just launched a brand new site and added new products. I really canāt get over how much I love everything. Preppy, nautical, classic, and unique. Iām loving everything from the new web design to the new prints! (and, itās all made in the USA!) The Totes are…
Last year, I had the luxury of living with Little V and Lookie (and Helen for the second half) in a fabulous house. Helen has a real job, Lookie is in his third year of med school, and Little V is hopping the pond to go to Oxford for graduate school. Where does that leave…
Thank you so much to everyone who encouraged me to read the Harry Potter books. I’ve finished the first, second, and third and have loved the stories so far. I can’t really remember the movies, so I feel like the plot of each book is new! My friend, and housemate, Helen from Georgetown was training in…
It’s Week 2 of Back-to-School Giveaways!!! Knotty Monkeys sent me an email directing me to the cutest Etsy jewelry shop! I checked it out and fell in love with the Monkey Fist Knot earrings. They’re a fun twist on the plain knotted earrings that are already popular. The crystal flower is just the cutest touch….
Sadly, August officially means summer is coming to an end. It’s crazy to think that I’m gearing up for my final first day of school… ever. Normally, when school supply commercials start playing on television, I feel an impending sense of dooooooooom. In order to combat this horrifying feeling and to lessen the blow of the…
Before school let out, Little V and I tried on every single lipstick in Sephora searching for the perfect coral. All these pictures of (gorgeous) models displaying the perfect shade of coral lips made me crazy!!! I want coral lips too!!! My lips are naturally darker, so whenever I put on lipstick it looks different…
A few quick things: J. Crew’s Factory store has puffer vests right now!!! Even though it’s hot hot hot, it’s a great price! I have a navy puffer vest and I wear it all the time during the winter. Vests are perfect layered over dresses, shirts, or even favorite sweatshirts. J. Crew Lodge Puffer Vest…
I had gotten a few requests for an Organize, Please for desks.. so here we go! This is my desk in my room at home, but I think the tips really can work for any desktop. If you have the option to choose your own desk, pick one with drawer space, a good writing surface,…
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»

@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
