There are SO many platforms that I use for College Prepster. Sometimes even I forget how many different places you can find College Prepster!!! But seriously, it’s confusing. Especially if you’re new here… you may not know where you can find me or maybe you just want to know what I use each platform for. It’s…
Father’s Day is June 19th! I’m not sure what it is about picking out gifts for guys, but it always seems to be a little more difficult than shopping for the ladies in my life. Nonetheless, I’ve rounded up some great options that are dad-approved, so whoever you’re shopping for this year, hopefully, there’s a…
A month ago I splurged on the Hatch Restore. It’s an alarm clock, reading light, sound machine, etc. It’s supposed to increase your quality of sleep, which I’ve been working on for a while. This had been on my personal wishlist for a bit and I couldn’t get it out of my mind. Finally went…
I wanted to update the baby products we have used so far during the first three months. I already did a post about we used during the first month, which I’m going to do a top-level sweep of here just so it’s in one place. But definitely check out that post if you want a…
Guys can be hard to shop for, so I’m rounding up a few gifts for him that I think would be perfect for any of the men in your life. Most of these products are either things Mike owns/loves or things I’ve gifted in the past. I’ve included a little something for everyone, so I…
When I moved out of the city a few years ago, IĀ never wanted to move back. My mom likes to bring it up weekly on whether or not I miss certain things and the answer has always been a big no, I don’t miss it. It was such a fun period of my life to…
IĀ love “what’s in my bag” posts. Maybe not the best thing to admit, but I’m a little bit nosy about it. For this, I thought I thought it’d be fun to see how I pack for various events. As you can see, there are a lot of repeats. I strongly dislike repacking and packing purses…
As I’ve been spending more time at the gym (who am I?), I’ve been working on perfecting my gym bag situation. If I’m in a rush that day, I just waltz into the gym with my regular purse and hope for the best. But when I have time, especially if I’m planning on taking back to back classes or meeting someone after, I have to be prepared.
Here’s an idea of what I pack:
Do you guys have any fun plans for Valentine’s Day? It’s a little bit hard to have it fall on a Tuesday, right? I celebrated this weekend and it really got me in the mood for all things pink and red. For me, it’s the perfect way to start re-introducing color into my wardrobe after navy, black, and brown all winter long. I’m looking forward to spring now more than ever. (Hallelujah for the sun setting after 5pm. I feel like there’s the light at the end of the tunnel!)
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
