Happy Friday! We have had some very low-key days and I have to say, they have been welcome. Especially as we gear up for summer activities, I’ve been happy to be home. Getting organized. getting on top of work, etc. Feels good to have a bit of a clean slate before things get hectic. Twinning in…
Since summer is almost here, I wanted to share an updated summer capsule wardrobe. I love creating mini capsule wardrobes at the start of a new season since it helps me take inventory of what I already own and fill in any gaps. It’s also such a life saver on days when I can’t decide what to…
I’ll admit the first thing that piqued my interest in pickleball was the paddles, haha! Of course you don’t need more than one, but… Who can resist cute pickleball paddles?? They’re total mood lifters. In my dream world, I’d have a coordinating paddle for all of my pickleball outfits! (Kidding… kind of.) As we get…
Whew! The past week was a bit of a whirlwind with travel, a big photoshoot, and Mother’s Day. I got back to Monday and felt like I no longer knew which way was up! All good things, though, so no complaints. LAST WEEK’S WIN: Shooting my upcoming collection with Neely and Chloe was amazing. I’m so…
I wanted to share all the details about this cane dress I recently sewed so it’s all under “one roof” so to speak. And I also was able to take some photos while wearing it on Nantucket last week with the super talented Georgie, so I really wanted to share. If you’ve been following along…
Summer is just around the corner, which means it’s almost time to hit the pool! Between time down the shore with Mike’s parents, our annual Nantucket trip, and endless hours at our pond club, we spend a fair share of time by the water during summer! When it comes to one-piece swimsuits, finding the perfect…
So this is actually my packing list for the photoshoot I did this week on Nantucket for my upcoming Neely & Chloe collection. I went to write this blog post and realized it could totally double as a Memorial Day packing list, too! We only had a six hour shoot, but I loaded my bag…
As you’re reading this I’m probably heading back home from a quick trip to Nantucket to shoot my collection with Neely & Chloe!!! We’ve been working on this for over a year, so to touch and feel and SEE the pieces in real life is amazing…. can’t wait to reveal more over the next few weeks….
You guys know I’m the worst concert goer in history and I was very certain I would skip out on the Taylor Swift Eras Tour…. With that said, I am experiencing major FOMO. It looks incredible from everything I’ve seen online and now I’m desperate to figure out a way to go! The ticket prices are…
Christmas came early this year 🎁✨ My mom completely surprised me with her original copy of Entertaining by @marthastewart48 —her very first book! This was on my totally delusional wish list, and I can’t believe she not only still had it but actually gave it to me 🥹. Growing up, my mom was the ultimate “Martha Stewart mom,” making every holiday, party, and little moment feel so magical for my sister and me. Receiving this feels like such a special passing of the torch, and I hope I can carry on even a fraction of the thoughtfulness and creativity she poured into everything for my own children. Feeling so inspired (and emotional!) about this gift. 💕 Can’t wait to sit down and read this! #ChristmasSurprise #EntertainingByMartha #FamilyTraditions @marthastewart

I turned 35 in September and while I’ve always tried to take good care of my skin I wanted to really prioritize skincare from the inside out. At this point, I’m not doing any kind of injectables (not that I’m against them broadly speaking btw... just sharing that I haven’t done anything) and I don’t want to do anything invasive. I have made some small adjustments to my everyday life though that has made a difference. In just a few months, I really think my skin has never looked better (and I include infancy here because I unfortunately had baby acne ) and I’m really feeling good:
– Fresh washcloths after cleansing skin (@weezietowels “makeup” washcloths are cute, super soft, and very practical)
– @omniluxled Omnilux Contour Face (this red light therapy mask has CHANGED the game for my skin. I use it 3-4x a week and it only takes 10 minutes per session!)
– @jolieskinco filtered showerhead (I’ve noticed a difference in both my skin AND hair)
– @ritual HyaCera (one capsule every night– it works from the inside out to help reduce the appearance of fine lines)
While I think my skin looks great on its own right now (🙌🏻 love to say that!), it also is serving as the best base for makeup. Sharing my current everyday routine:
– @supergoop Mineral Unseen Sunscreen
– @summerfridays Sheer Skin Tint (shade 1)
– @merit Bronze Balm Sheer Sculpting Bronzer (shade clay)
– @saiebeauty Dew Blush Liquid Cream (shade chilly)
– @jonesroadbeauty Shimmer Face Oil (shade cool rose)
– @sephora collection Eyebrow Gel (shade ebony)
– @honest Extreme Length Mascara
– @urbandecaycosmetics 24/7 Glide On Eyeliner (shade demolition)
– @iliabeauty Balmy Lip Tint (shade lullaby)
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.usa
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
