I’ve been venturing outside of my comfort zone lately and trying more beauty products. I have to confess that my natural inclination is to stick to what works and not try anything else. Now obviously, what works… works. But what if something worked better? I’d be missing out! When I try something, I typically commit…
I absolutely loathe shopping for jeans. I always have a vision for what I want and then seem to hunt forever to find the perfect pair. The one that fits. That flatters. With the right wash. The right pockets. The right hem. I get almost all of my jeans tailored, to control the length. Enter:…
This belt is one of the best fashion purchases I’ve made in a while. While I love the look of belts, I typically struggle to find ones that fit both my style and my body. I don’t really want to wear a giant logo around my waist and I also want to be able to wear…
I was kind of thinking that my pink phase was just that: a phase. With every passing season though, it seems to be here to stay! When I got a peek at the lookbook for Gal Meet Glam’s latest collection, I was immediately drawn to this darling dress. I used to shy away from the…
I weirdly don’t have too much to share from the past two weeks. My camera roll was pretty low on the content 😂 My mom surprised me with an Hermés scarf for my birthday. I pretty much always tell my parents to not get me anything because I have everything I need… this was so…
I am quite looking forward to this weekend. We’re home (!!!) and have friends spending the night and then we’re going to try to get to a food truck festival, too. I’ve been slowly working my way through some lingering piles that were never addressed when we move… so I also have that to look…
At the beginning of the summer, my hair dryer fizzled out. One morning it just started going half power and the next wouldn’t turn on at all. (Naturally, I was out of the warranty.) I loved that dryer, so I considered just replacing it with the newer model of it. But as I was shopping…
I’ve been making so many errors this week. It feels like I have a little personal mercury-in-retrograde cloud hanging over my head. I’m not immune to mistakes (obviously), but I’ve been the opposite of killing it. It’s a combination of a few things… I took a week off for a family vacation and ended up…
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,…
… 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. 🫶🏻
