Every day, I feel like I get a little closer to figuring out who exactly I am. But the funny, and true, thing is that we are who we are! Already. It’s just a matter of figuring that out and peeling back those layers. Not being afraid to take chances, following your gut, and listening…
Last week, one of my friends who works at Alison Brod PR invited me to the office for a little tour and introduction to the brands. She brought me into the beauty closet and let me tell you, even for someone like me who isn’t into makeup, it was heaven on earth. Rows and rows…
My love for Serena & Lily runs deep. Almost every single room in our home hasĀ something from Serena & Lily. I love their approach to relaxed and comfortable home decor. I always love knowing that when I purchase something, I’m getting high quality products with great design that’s functional without being overly stuffy. I’m partnering…
thredUP has been one of my favorite companies to work with over the past couple of years, but this particular partnership may just be the best yet! I teamed up with thredUP stylists to create a curated style box that you guys can order! With their help, I answered a bunch of questions related to…
I’m writing this as a public service announcement for all women who have a period… my life will never be the same, haha, and I just had to share the best menstrual cup and my DivaCup review because I wish I had tried it sooner. But first some backstory. I was aĀ very late bloomer. I…
Oh man, two and a half months later, the apartment is starting to finallllllly come together. Maybe “come together” is the wrong word, but we’re past the “major issues” stage. And thank goodness for that because I thought it was going to break me there for a bit. But we survived! The one thing that…
Ah, one of my favorite parts of spring is dusting off my sandals and flats. My feet have been basically living in boots and are so happy to be free now! I’m booking a pedicure ASAP to get my toes and feet in the best shape. Hands down, the shoes I’m most excited about are…
About two years ago, I wrote a giant post with all of my blogging tips. It remains one of my most clicked posts and I send it out no fewer than 20 times a week via email or Instagram DMs. A lot of you want to start blogs and I think it’sĀ great. Yes, it’s a…
Being nice takes just as much energy as being negative. I try to remember this everywhere I go…. saying hello to the barista at Starbucks, holding the elevator for someone down the hallway, or letting someone into the lane on the highway. YouĀ never know what someone might be dealing with in their life, even if…
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
