After taking the most wonderful break from anything work related while in Palm Beach, I hit the ground running on Monday when I returned home. It was surprisingly warm in New Jersey and I had a game plan for tackling everything I needed to catch up on so it wasn’t the hardest transition. If anything,…
You know I love a good stripe. I pretty much retire my striped shirts during the winter months. (Or maybe it’s more like put them into hibernation-mode.) I think you can wear stripes year round (I have), but I tend to not gravitate towards them until it starts warming up again. And then I nearly live in…
At the end of last year, my friend Maddie and I started to plan a girls trip. It started as a joke, calling it a Needlepoint Camp. The more we thought about it though, the more we realized how brilliant the idea was. We narrowed it down quickly to Palm Beach so we could also…
The Shopbop spring event is happening now! It’s one of the better sales of the year as designer, in season items, are included. There are some exclusions, but it’s always worth poking around to see what’s available. Thought I’d pick out a few not-to-be-missed items that I think you guys will like too. Use “SPRING”…
A few weeks ago, I was invited to speak with a group of high school girls. It was a great afternoon. They are so smart and way more mature than I remember being when I was the same age. I shared my career path: what I do and how I got here. I talked about feeling…
Ready for another playlist? I thought this could be a fun way to kick off the new week. I play so much music while I work and I’ve been working on this playlist for a while… it’s finally long enough to be considered done. It’s a really weird mix of songs. Some oldies and some…
Hi! I’m obsessed with this outfit. It’s so simple but I feel extra sharp in it. Like an elevated everyday outfit. My version of this trench coat is a little different than what’s available now, but it’s very similar. It’s such a versatile style and definitely what I’d consider a wardrobe staple. As you can…
We’ve officially been doing the Diary posts every other Saturday for a year! Figure it’s a good time to check in to see how you’re liking the posts. I had considered dropping down my weekend posts for a while, but decided to try something new on Saturdays, rotating between a product round up and a…
I’m en route to Palm Beach this morning with a girls’ trip with Maddie! I’m so excited for some sunshine, girl time, shopping, and needlepointing. Other than doing a little extra prep-work ahead of being away, it was a pretty standard week over here. Shooting for my blog is pretty weather dependent, which can be…
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 😛
#AveenoPartner If your little one has eczema prone skin, try switching to @aveenous’s Baby Daily Care Wash during bath time to cleanse without drying out their skin. We also use Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy Nighttime Moisturizing Body Balm before bed to intensely moisturize and help protect Rory’s skin from moisture loss! Not only does his skin feel and look healthier, he’s so much more comfortable too! You can buy both of these products today on Amazon!
