I read someĀ incredible books this month. So many good ones to share. But first I just want to reiterate how much I love the Kindle. I have found myself reading so much more throughout the day and especially at night. I always have a book with me and I love being able to read in…
I have a sponsored Instagram with J. Crew coming out today, but I love the outfit so much that I had to give it a permanent spot on the blog. Our social calendar is starting to fill up and I’m starting to think about holiday party outfits!! Who knew my closet was missing aĀ sequin skirt….
It hasn’t even been a month since my last “ten things” post, but I feel like I have lived six lives since then. ONE // Friday Night Lights I like to watch TV or movies while I’m needlepointing every night. Recently I kind of felt like I either hated everything new or had watched everything…
Itās time for another āten thingsā post. I stole this idea from my friendĀ Kellyā but itās basically just an old school blog post where I share the first ten things that come to mindā¦ Ready, set, go! ONE // Needlepoint Camp Maddie and I did our first “needlepoint camp” togetherĀ right before the pandemic hit. We…
I will never forget the day Maxie scheduled a “meeting” (i.e. a regular coffee date) with me and told me she wanted to start a blog. I have helped a LOT of people over the years get social media accounts and blogs off the ground, but no one comes close to how excited I was…
So I read this article about “elite” colleges and why you shouldn’t go them. The article is a bit dramatic at times and definitely has an agenda. But it does have some interesting points regarding how we “manufacture” students for the college application process and what happens when students arrive on campuses in the fall….
Itās time for another āten thingsā post. I stole this idea from my friendĀ Kellyā but itās basically just an old school blog post where I share the first ten things that come to mindā¦ Ready, set, go! ONE // Postpartum Goals Before I had Jack, I sat down and came up with a couple of…
We got home from Tampa on Tuesday and slowly got our bearings. We came back to a pretty big rain storm and let’s just say I’m glad we got four days of sunny weather in Florida because just the 24 hours of downpour left me feeling down in the dumps. (I don’t love grey, rainy…
I’m still going through an organizing how I want to do the posts for my Paris trip. I have a LOT to share and needless to say, it was an incredible trip. I think that I’m going to kick of my itinerary and outfit posts next week so I have some more time to organize…
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
