This is part outfit post and part me asking for recommendations! My boyfriend and I planned a trip to Paris at the end of the month. I went last summer and had a great time so I’m looking forward to returning. And exploring the city in fall! Would love more recommendations for restaurants, things to…
I touched on the craziness of my week in yesterday’s On My Radar, but wanted to better document it in a post. I know these posts are turning into a favorite for readers– and for me as well. It’s been hard to balance the professional aspect of blogging (since it’s my job), while still staying…
Another Friday, another On My Radar. The past week has been a whirlwind. I definitely had too much on my plate, but I just couldn’t say no to anything. Starting last Thursday through late Sunday afternoon, I was shooting the Gal Meets Glam holiday collection with Julia. On Monday night, I was the moderator for Maxie’s…
This may or may not be the world’s most boring outfit. But it also may or may not be what I wear pretty much every day. I just find wearing jeans, especially on a busy day, to be the easiest and most practical option. I don’t have to worry about wrinkles, or getting my pup’s…
As I start to switch my closet over for the seasons, I’ve been pulling a few pieces to leave on my clothing rack. I bought the rack when I moved into my new apartment last spring and it’s been so helpful for my blogging life. I hang all the pieces I have to shoot (new clothes/sponsored…
When I started my freshman year of high school, one of my girlfriends told me she had picked out a perfume to be her “signature scent.” So naturally, I needed a signature scent too. I had worn a few body sprays here and there, but had never had a real perfume (not just borrowed from my mom). It…
I know everyone has experienced this before. Those moments in time when you feel helpless, directionless, or like everything is falling apart or failing. Maxie has great tips, and I can vouch for them personally as she’s been on the other end of a phone call where I’ve vented to her about feeling like nothing…
This dress just screams Carly! Or Samantha Parkington. Or Rory Gilmore. Or maybe even Blair Waldorf. I can’t decide, but I know that it’s amazing. I wore this last week and met up with Carter in the morning to shoot it. (Actually met/saw a bunch of readers commuting to work… Hi!) We had one of those…
Ugh, I feel like I have been pretty good with not buying too many new things this year. Until this season. I bought way too many things and I’m not proud of it, but I also love everything I got. So….. maybe I’ll let myself have this little spree and tighten the purse strings again once…
I created a beautiful, custom silk photo album from @printique_by_adorama to remember my sweet dog Hamilton, who passed away earlier this year. Their layflat album captured the colors and details perfectly, making each photo feel so special. It’s a keepsake I’ll cherish forever, and I’m so grateful for the quality and love they put into every page. #printiquepartner
… 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!
