I feel like Maxie wrote this post specifically for me! As I gear up for the last bit of my “busy season,” the pressure is really mounting. I love everything she suggested… right down to the wrapped presents and wish I had read it before I went on a five-store journey looking for a specific…
I feel like there’s such a short window to totally embrace the holiday spirit wardrobe-wise and I plan on taking advantage of it as much as possible. I’m a big fan of red in general and even more so leading up to Christmas. I also wear a lot of black during the winter, but black…
Right now so many of my friends have little ones and I love getting to spoil them. Everything is so much cuter when it’s smaller, right?! So I think the first caveat is that if the person has an Amazon wish list for their kiddos, it’s usually a good place to start. Especially if there’s…
I’m always in a good mood when Friday rolls around, but I’m extra excited today. My whole fam is flying in for a little pre-Christmas holiday weekend. My boyfriend and I wanted to host our families for a big holiday dinner and the weekend is finally here!! I’m sure we’ll spend some time in NYC,…
Framed photographs are always some of my favorite gifts to give. It can get expensive though to do a bunch of custom framing. I partnered with Walmart on this post to show how you can turn photos from your phone to giftable works of art! I currently have been really into diptych photographs and decided to…
J. Crew decked out the ice skating rink at Brookfield Place in TARTAN and it couldn’t be more perfect for the holidays. Even the Zamboni is wrapped in tartan!!! My friend Julia and I headed over there on Monday night for a little skating party with J. Crew. We had so much fun. I couldn’t…

All of these are great options if you’re having people over or heading over to someone’s house for the holidays. YUM. 7 Savory Recipes for Every Holiday Occasion Guest post by Louisa from Living Lou While I love…
I partnered with ALDI this holiday season and I couldn’t be more excited to share this post with you. I recruited my mom’s help for it and we are both fully ALDI converts. We had a blast grocery shopping and finding all kinds of products in each aisle. I had half the cart filled after going…
We had THE BEST time and it ended up being our most low-key holiday yet… and we loved it. I go home to Tampa quite often and honestly, we do the same things over and over again. We’re at home 90% of the time and then go to our favorite places. I’m not going to…

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

#ZarbeesPartner @zarbees is helping us get the best night of sleep possible! 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)
