I seriously CANNOT believe it’s time for another round of my yearly favorites. It’s my eleventh (!!!) installment. You can catch up on past years: Here are my favorites from 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018. Also, it’s funny to re-read how I was feeling in 2018 and comparing it to how I feel now. I knew I was just in…
So when we first bought our house, I was determined to make it a “smart house.” (Which, by the way, just so happens to be one of my favorite DCOMs.) I kind of thought it would be a one-and-done situation. You buy a few things for a few rooms and, bam, you have a smart…
Ever since I put up my last post with Everlane, I have been loving all the messages you guys DM me about your new Everlane purchases or what pieces are your go-tos. As I mentioned before, I am thrilled to finally be clued into this amazing retailer. Even pulling products for this sponsored post was…
I was so excited to do this photoshoot with Elsa! I’m sure this will be the first of many. I weirdly wasn’t nervous about making friends when I moved to the suburbs. I’m well-versed in moving, having done it a couple of times in childhood and then moving between school in DC, my first few…
I’ve been a pretty big fan of Dudley Stephens since their launch. I swear their fleeces have helped me survive the winter months without totally pulling out my hair. They’re REALLY comfy cozy. You only have to wear one once to understand the hype. I promise– they’re that good. Personally, I can’t really pull them…
So I’ve been keeping a “stash” of links for gifts and they didn’t make their way into any gift guides this year. Wanted to be sure to share everything so why not just throw them into one post! Bam! Blue & White Earrings I got an ad on IG for these and absolutely LOVE the…
It is no secret that I was bitten by the “handmade” bug this year. I have been crafting up a storm and I have a better appreciation for anything handmade because of it. But look, handmade gifts take time, creativity, and energy… which sometimes we’re all short on! I’m teaming up with Amazon Handmade for…
Coming in a day early because I have a sponsored post scheduled for tomorrow! Nothing too crazy happened around here. We’re celebrating Taylor’s birthday tomorrow and having neighbors over Saturday and then I’m going into the city Sunday for a New York Philharmonic concert so it should be an extra fun couple of days. Here’s…
I splurged on this cardigan and absolutely LOVE it. The jeweled buttons really add a nice pop to an otherwise plain cardigan. I went with the grey so it would be extra versatile, but honestly every color looks amazing. Really loving the neon peony!! Right now J. Crew is having a cashmere sale… most pieces…
… 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!
With @marthastewart48’s @netflix documentary releasing today, I invited some friends (👋🏻 @samanthavarvel and @shihstitches) over to my studio to peruse my new-to-me collection of @marthastewart Living magazines. I grew up with a “Martha Stewart Mom” and read her magazines every month alongside her. They have brought back so many memories, and they are serving up new inspiration now! I used to want to be a magazine editor, I’m sure influenced by magazines like Martha Stewart Living, and now that I’ve had a chance to revisit them, it’s not a crazy surprise I ended up as a blogger-turned-influencer. I’ve always loved this, and it’s a good thing. 🫶🏻
