As you guys likely know, I had been doing PureBarre workouts on my iPad since the beginning of this quarantine situation. I fell in love with Barre classes at my new gym last winter and really wanted to recreate those classes at home. I did the 60 day free trial with PureBarre and it was…
Whoa. My. Goodness. So I had been hearing quite the buzz about a podcast. It seemed like everyone was talking about it. About two years ago, I would ride the subway and every girl (and some guys) would be reading Gone Girl. Now it’s like everyone is listening to Serial. Okay, let me back up in…
This was a highly requested post… What baby products did we use/need during the first month. It’s actually a question I asked myself a lot while pregnant, especially while putting together a registry. WhatĀ exactly do you need for a newborn. Surely over time we’ll need more things, but what do you need in those first…
Inspiration might be one of the hardest things to come by. Being in a creative rut is the worst and it tends to stick around like the plague, right? For me, when everything seems out of control in my life, the first thing to go is my inspiration. The littlest of things can make it disappear,…
Keeping things short & sweet here! I rounded up some of the best Black Friday sales with my top picks from each retailer. (If you’re viewing on mobile, you might have an easier time swiping through everything on your desktop!) Enjoy! Abercrombie // 50% off entire store Amazon // Great deals all week Ann Taylor…
I’ve been toying with the idea of going back to school. Part of the itch is that I’m seeing all my friends from school starting graduate programs, and the other part is that, four years out of school, I think I finally miss the classroom setting. (It did take a solid four years for me…
Whoops! SO delayed in posting this. I held off on posting what I read in July because it wasĀ such a bad reading month. (Usually vacation is a great time to read… with an infant and toddler? Not so much!) Here’s what I read in July & August: JUST LAST NIGHTĀ by Mhairi McFarlane 3.5/5 Stars I…
I am so torn between hard copy “traditional” books and e-books. I read a lot. I read for at least 30 minutes every morning, but I aim for 45-60. It’s the one thing that I can do to relax and focus for the day. Reading puts a stop to the crazies and the “bad tapes”…
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
