I love sandwiches. Whenever I go out to eat lunch, I like to get a great sandwich. I’m all for a delicious turkey club, but I’m also down to try any kind if it comes recommended. My friend Victoria makes the absolute best sandwiches (she could open up a restaurant with them), and she inspired me to…
I’m going to file this under “best. dress. ever.” I don’t know if it was the release of Beauty and the Beast or the upcoming summer season, but this dress popped out at me, and I knew I needed to have it. While it’s simply adorable, the price might just make it a must-have for the season.
I dressed it up for this shoot. It would easily work for graduation festivities, weddings, and al fresco date night dinners. But I think it’d be just as cute with a pair of sandals for a more casual day around town.
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:
A few months ago I included an article about the secret to happiness. Or maybe “a” secret to happiness. It was about searching for and recognizing, slivers of joy in your life. I think about those slivers of happiness every day still. I love how simple it is. Some slivers of joy from the week:…
I’m sure all of you are all too familiar with the suffocating feeling when there’s so much to do that you’re not sure where to begin. I hate that feeling, but unfortunately, things get to that point now and then. Sometimes it’s a full week, and other times it’s only a day. No matter how…
Last week, as I was walking to the train station, I spotted the very first buds on the tree branches. It was the most glorious sight. Hopefully, the leaves aren’t too far behind. I’m ready for the greenery, even if it means suffering through a few weeks of allergies!
Anyway, I’m rounding up some of my top picks today. I feel extra inspired to add a few spring-y things to my closet. Not that I need anything, but the online shopping right now is extra tempting.
One thing that I do religiously before and after working out is getting in a good stretch. If I ever did any workout before, I wouldn’t stretch. Now I know I’d be in trouble (that is, incredibly sore and potentially hurt) afterward if I didn’t.
You know how people say that hindsight is 20/20? This is the reverse. I’m so on board with Maxie’s mantra here. I personally use it frequently! One Question That REALLY Helps When You’re Stressed Out Guest post by Maxie McCoy There’s not a human on this earth that doesn’t get completely frazzled, overwhelmed, or stressed out…
Can you believe we’re already a full three months into the year? Every year seems to go a little bit faster. I wonder if that’s just one of the many joys of adulthood: time flying by. Even though it feels like I’ve only just blinked since January 1, I would still believe you if you…
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
