Kate Spade Surprise Sale 💕 (Just in time for Valentine’s Day!)

My mom just texted me to say that she checked out the Kate Spade Surprise Sale and found a few things she loved. I’m currently stuck in the airport waiting for a delayed flight… but wow, everything is super cute. Especially with Valentine’s Day right around the corner, it’s the perfect time to treat yourself to something cute. (Or send this post to a significant other to drop a not-so-subtle hint.)

Maintaining Long Distance Friendships

I had the absolute best weekend. Not to brag or anything, but I really do have the most special friendships with some incredible people. Top of the list? Nicole. We’ve been friends for over two decades. TWO DECADES. It’s crazy to think that a friendship we formed when we were four years old turned out…

How to Go on an Adventure (and Why You Should)

Even though I’m not what I’d consider an adventurous person, I can look back on all of my adventures with fondness and gratefulness. They’ve made me a better person (or helped me grow) in one way or another. How to Go on an Adventure (and Why You Should) Guest post by Maxie McCoy Do you…

Be Mine

I took these photos recently for a special Valentine’s Day-inspired Instagram for Talbots. I ended up loving the photos so much, I had to share on here as well. And, non-Valentine’s related, I also had to share the most amazing discovery pants-wise. The focus of the Instagram is the cute heart crossbody (that I freaking love), but the pants ended up being the best thing ever.

Bows Galore

I feel like no matter how old I get, I will always love anything with a cute bow on it. I’ve been eyeing so many pieces with bows right now that I had to share.

On My Radar

I feel like I haven’t stopped this week– in such a great way. I was blow drying my hair this week and realized how much it’s already grown out since my haircut right after the new year. Seems pretty fitting though because I feel like the end of my January looks completely different than it did at…

Reader Recommendations

I love that I’m able to chat with you guys on Snapchat! I do my best to respond when I can and to read as many messages as possible… but I especially love it when you guys send me amazing recommendations. Whether it’s a new book or answering a question I have, it’s like having…

The Cutest Phone Cases

One of my favorite ways to come up with blog posts is to look to my email and Tumblr inboxes. I get a ton of questions and do my best to answer all of them. It’s funny though because there are times where I’m getting numerous questions within a short amount of time. Right now, not sure why, I’m getting a lot of questions about cute cases for iPhones! My guess is that they were Christmas gifts and everyone’s ready for something new and cute. (Or maybe Valentine’s Day gift ideas!?) Regardless, I thought I’d round up fifteen of the cutest cases right now. I want them all, tbh.

J. Crew x New Balance

Now, I’m pretty good about getting out the door for classes, but sometimes I need a little motivation, like super cute and comfortable outfits. The J. Crew x New Balance collection has been a favorite of mine. They mix and match well, so I can put together the best looks for whatever I’m doing. (I like different fits for yoga versus weightlifting versus cardio.) You can imagine my excitement when J. Crew asked me to partner on a post sharing some of the latest collection.
