Guys!!! Major shopping PSA.
My favorite white tee is BACK. And it’s not just my favorite white tee; I’d go so far to say it’s the perfect white tee. I bought it on a whim last year (or the year before?), and it’s on heavy rotation in my wardrobe during the summer months. Well, year round.
I have been in a bit of a fog this week! I had such an amazing weekend, and it just made Monday feel like an extra letdown. On Saturday, I got a severe sunburn. I’m pretty sure it was more in the category of sun poisoning. (I am very angry with myself for letting it…
One of my favorite posts to write on here are my book recommendations. Whenever I meet with a friend I haven’t seen in a while, I always end up writing out some books for their “homework.” I’m the go-to girl in my friend group for book recommendations– and I love it. I also love these posts…
Is there anything happier than a field of tulips?! I’m not quite sure. I drove up to Rhode Island last week to do a little tulip picking with Kiel, Sarah, Dave, and Sophie. It had rained for two days and I was looking forward to a morning outside! Wicked Tulips is a MUST for tulip picking.
It seems like the tulips just go on forever– every color you can imagine. (I’ve heard that they opened the big fields up too, so definitely hop on it!)
Whoa! Graduation season really crept up on me. I have had “graduation gifts” on my blog post list for weeks now, and all of a sudden it’s May and still no post! I have a couple of people I have to get gifts for that are graduating high school and a few graduating from college so I’m taking notes for my own shopping needs. (I think everyone is getting this monogrammed tassel keychain mobile charger!) Nearly everything on here would work for college or high school graduates, with the exception of the college survival kit, but you can swap in one of the classic kits.
I recently partnered with FabFitFun and just received my first box in the mail last week! I have tried a few subscription boxes in the past, but FabFitFun is in its own league. For $49.99 you receive over $200 worth of (full-sized!) fashion, beauty, fitness, and lifestyle products four times a year. I love that…
Happy Sunday, friends! Switching things up this week… I have a post going up tomorrow, so I moved Maxie Monday to Sunday. Without a doubt, Maxie is one of my friends who I consider to be a peer mentor. We have the usual conversations 20-something girls might have (swapping dating stories and a thorough discussion…
Without a doubt, Persifor dresses are my go-to picks for hot days. It’s hard to tell in photographs, but the material is amazing. It’s stretchy and smooth– making them the perfect choice for warm weather. And traveling. If you hate dealing with wrinkly clothes, you have to try a Persifor dress. I swear you could bunch it up at the bottom of your suitcase and throw it on without an iron or steamer in sight.
This was a solid week. I recently transitioned to a new manager, and I am so happy. I’d be down for sharing more of how it works if you guys are interested. I touch on it in this old post about blogging tips, but I know it can be confusing if you’re not actually in the…
girlhood 🫶🏻 find friends who want to do the same little hobbies as you! Went over to @shihstitches’ house yesterday to give her some sourdough starter and go through the basics (I’m *very much* a beginner so I told her to take my lesson with a grain of salt)
PS convinced her to make an IG account! @blueskyehouse
PPS she’s convincing me I really do need a fancy range like her ✨ stunning ✨ @lacanche_us!
Just a girl searching for the perfect digital planner solution. What I have right now is working, technically speaking, but I’m working across platforms and ideally I’d love everything to be in one place. I also have calendar synesthesia (IYKYK) and I physically feel myself in space moving through my calendar, which makes finding a planner difficult because I want/need it to match up with what I see in my head I know this sounds insane but if you also “see” time, you know what I mean!
Right now I’m using:
– Google Sheets to track campaigns/business line items
– Google docs for writing/brainstorming
– Google/Apple Calendars (somehow they’re integrated and I don’t ask questions because it just works...)
– Apple Notes for daily to-dos, random note keeping, and quick jot downs
– Apple Reminders for “must dos” esp w/ deadlines
– Dropbox for photo/file storage
I’m craving a good ole fashioned paper planner but the reality is that I need it to be digital. I need it to integrate with my calendar and remind me of tasks. I need to be able to access it on my computer when I’m working at my desk and on my phone when I’m on the go. I need structure and flexibility?
Does the perfect digital planner exist?! Do I need to overcome my overwhelm and tackle @notionhq? Is an @apple iPad the solution? Do I just keep doing what I’m doing because it’s technically working?
If you’ve stuck around to the end, I appreciate you 🫡
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
