One thing that I think is a big struggle for our generation (and even more for the younger generation) is feeling lonely or alone, despite being more connected than ever. (At least, “on paper” at least there’s more connections happening through social media and the internet.) But once you start to take stock of who is…
This outfit *almost* makes me wish I worked in a traditional office. Don’t get me wrong, I freaking love working from home– can’t beat my “commute” and being able to wear whatever I want is pretty great. But sometimes it can get old just sitting at my desk in workout clothes or jeans and a…
I feel like I have to start this post with an apology of sorts. (Which is a major pet peeve of mine when I read other blogs… so please bear with me!) This year has been flying by and it’s been a little crazier than the usual first quarter. (Anyone else in disbelief that it’s almost…
This has been a CRAZY week. All great things and I literally can’t wait to share more with you guys!!! Part of me is holding back because things aren’t quite finalized and I don’t want to jinx anything…. so please cross your fingers and send all the good vibes. 🤞🏻 If I’m being totally honest,…
I’ve had this dress in my closet since last fall. I noticed that it’s a) still available online, b) on sale, and c) available in four colorways and I just had to share. I realize that it may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but I’m so obsessed with it. Since I don’t go into…
My denim jacket has really been great use. I only got it a year ago and I just can’t imagine it not being in my wardrobe’s rotation now. Because I love the jacket so much, I put together a quick video for my IG TV, and thought I’d share it here… along with more outfits…
I’m all about jeans and a crisp white shirt, year round really, but I love it even more when I don’t have to wear anything layered over. This particular shirt is one that I bought two summers ago. I love that it’s not-so-simple yet not overly complicated. J. Crew has a slightly similar option this…
I totally start craving different foods once spring rolls around! This past week when we were experiencing warm weather, I popped into a local cafe for a fresh and bright salad. Usually, my go-to lunch in winter is soup so it was a welcomed change! Will have to give a few of these recipes from…
This is a little random, but it’s been on my mind a lot lately. The “self-help” genre can be kind of hit or miss. Generally speaking, I feel like if you’re looking for some kind of answer in your life, you can find meaning or “help” in any kind of book. Like a confirmation bias…

It usually takes 10x longer, is way messier, and requires a lot more patience to do things with a three year old toddler… but it’s also kind of magic. (You know, once the cracked eggs are cleaned up from the hardwood floor of course…) 👩🏻🍳 🧑🏼🍳

Christmas came early this year 🎁✨ My mom completely surprised me with her original copy of Entertaining by @marthastewart48 —her very first book! This was on my totally delusional wish list, and I can’t believe she not only still had it but actually gave it to me 🥹. Growing up, my mom was the ultimate “Martha Stewart mom,” making every holiday, party, and little moment feel so magical for my sister and me. Receiving this feels like such a special passing of the torch, and I hope I can carry on even a fraction of the thoughtfulness and creativity she poured into everything for my own children. Feeling so inspired (and emotional!) about this gift. 💕 Can’t wait to sit down and read this! #ChristmasSurprise #EntertainingByMartha #FamilyTraditions @marthastewart

Our sleep routines got shaken up after Daylight Savings Time ended, so we are doing what we can to get back on track and get back into good sleep hygiene routines. I’m keeping Zarbees Children’s Sleep Gummies with Melatonin on hand and we added Zarbees Calming Bedtime Spray into our nightly routine– with calming natural lavender and chamomile to set the mood for a restful night of sleep.

✨ leave a comment with “SKIN” and I’ll send you all the products mentioned here ✨
I turned 35 in September and while I’ve always tried to take good care of my skin I wanted to really prioritize skincare from the inside out. At this point, I’m not doing any kind of injectables (not that I’m against them broadly speaking btw... just sharing that I haven’t done anything) and I don’t want to do anything invasive. I have made some small adjustments to my everyday life though that has made a difference. In just a few months, I really think my skin has never looked better (and I include infancy here because I unfortunately had baby acne ) and I’m really feeling good:
– Fresh washcloths after cleansing skin (@weezietowels “makeup” washcloths are cute, super soft, and very practical)
– @omniluxled Omnilux Contour Face (this red light therapy mask has CHANGED the game for my skin. I use it 3-4x a week and it only takes 10 minutes per session!)
– @jolieskinco filtered showerhead (I’ve noticed a difference in both my skin AND hair)
– @ritual HyaCera (one capsule every night– it works from the inside out to help reduce the appearance of fine lines)
While I think my skin looks great on its own right now (🙌🏻 love to say that!), it also is serving as the best base for makeup. Sharing my current everyday routine:
– @supergoop Mineral Unseen Sunscreen
– @summerfridays Sheer Skin Tint (shade 1)
– @merit Bronze Balm Sheer Sculpting Bronzer (shade clay)
– @saiebeauty Dew Blush Liquid Cream (shade chilly)
– @jonesroadbeauty Shimmer Face Oil (shade cool rose)
– @sephora collection Eyebrow Gel (shade ebony)
– @honest Extreme Length Mascara
– @urbandecaycosmetics 24/7 Glide On Eyeliner (shade demolition)
– @iliabeauty Balmy Lip Tint (shade lullaby)
