Now that it’s technically spring, I’ve been working on my spring cleaning list. Honestly, it’s pretty boring. I clean my apartment thoroughly every weekend and do tidying up every night… but I’m doing a deep dive cleaning spree. Floors, walls, every nook & cranny. No stone left unturned. Besides the obvious “cleaning” that should be…
As always, I’m excited to announce another giveaway with Pea Pod Paper and Gifts! This one is kind of perfect. Monogrammed earrings? Yes. Please. There are tons of colors to choose from and you can even select between silver and gold monograms. I love the tortoise option!!! How cute would that be with a gold monogram?…
So I’ve obviously put off this post for the end of the month. (Remember when I promised to talk about LOVE during the month of February?) I’m frankly super hesitant to put this up at all. As a rule, I don’t like talking about religion, politics, and relationships. The no-relationships-on-the-blog is for a slew of reasons. But…
Okay… I’m completely over these temperatures. Earlier this week, I definitely left the office to run across the street for lunch without my coat. I miss the days when I didn’t have to spend time bundling up for just a quick walk down the block. So I’ve been dreaming of warmer weather. This is the most…
Who doesn’t need more stationery in their life? I, for one, am completely addicted to making new stationery purchases. Rutherford Papers is an amazing stationery boutique online. I think my favorite part is not even about the paper (even though the entire selection is amazing). The company is really into customer service. They are dedicated to making…
After fashion week back in September, I was super excited for some of the shows this time around. Because I’m full-time at Levo now (yay!), I had to scale back the ones I decided to go to. Obviously the presentation at Kate Spade was not a question. And the blogger get together at Jack Rogers was…
With Valentine’s Day right around the corner (eep, February is flying by!), I decided to put together a little bit of a gift guide. Moms, these are perfect little presents for daughters. They’re even great presents for friends. And they’re absolutely amazing presents for yourself. (Because you should really be showing love for everyone this…
As part of focusing on work-life balance, I was planning on not publishing a blog post one day. I thought that it would be nice… a break? Instead, I felt so anxious. At this point, blogging is something that I do every day. It’s just like making my bed or brushing my teeth. It’s absolutely…
One of the cool things about Levo League is that we have chapters of #LocalLEVO groups around the country (well actually, world). Maxie is the Community Manager and rocks. Unfortunately, she spends most of her time in California and/or flying back and forth around the country launching in new cities. So it’s extra special when she’s…
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
