I have a confession to make: I have a personal assistant. But it’s not what you think. I have nothing against having a personal assistant, but at this stage of my life, it wouldn’t be the easiest thing to manage. I have absolutely outsourced some of my work (I have a manager, a photographer, lawyers,…
This is going to be a long post and I have plenty of outfit posts coming up from the trip too. If you remember, Ashley and I went to Nantucket last year for a girls’ trip. Before our bags were even in the room, she received the most devastating news that Ryan, her husband, had…
This is not going to be an entirely comprehensive post of money management tips. Of course, with just about anything, there is always more to learn and know. I did want to share my thoughts on personal finances though after writing the post about loving my car. I also have to put the disclaimer out…
Jaime and I were blown away by the career questions everyone had. Thank you so much to everyone who submitted one. Jaime is here today kicking off the first of the readers’ questions posts: Tips for Writing Cover Letters by Jaime from The Prepary Thank you all for the amazing questions and career post ideas! We…
Isn’t it crazy how far we’ve come in terms of technology and communication in such a short amount of time? I think we’re all still trying to catch up as far as best practices, safety, and “rules” are concerned though. There’s a lot of grey area and there’s quite a few ways you can end…
I am obsessed with Instagram. I just can’t get enough of the iPhone app. It’s so much fun to take pictures and add fun little filters and effects. I like how it’s also a mini-social network. Well, I love the app so much that I didn’t want my favorite pictures trapped inside my iPhone for the…
This has turned into my most-asked question in the past few weeks: how do I make my Instagram story videos. If you’ve been following along on Insta, you might have noticed that I’ve been trying to get more creative with what and how I post. Honestly, I try to keep raising the bar regarding post…
Want to get your monogram like how I described this morning and you’re still not sure how to do it? Let’s first use the example of the downloadable monogram from For Chic’s Sake! If you’re on a Mac, you might have to download Adobe Reader. You’re going to want to download the file as per…
I have been collecting songs. Is that weird??? I have a running list of songs on my iPhone and in a “task” list on gmail. I even downloaded that Shazam app so that when I’m standing somewhere and hear a song I like I can figure out the name. (Have I ever mentioned how downright…
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
