Yes, prepsters. Those are Vineyard Vines Crazy Bands. Silly bandz for the preppy. Stuff your stockings full of them. xoxo Update: So I originally wrote this yesterday right before my second to last exam. After I took the exam, I decided to take the rest of the night off from studying. I went down to…
A few weeks ago, I watched The Race to Nowhere. Oh man… it’s good. The documentary looks at education right now and more specifically the pressure parents and students are under. I think this is something every parent needs to watch and every student (eighth grade and up) should watch as well. It should be…
Does anyone else feel like we blinked and the week just flew by??? How is it Friday? I swear, the best weeks happen after quick weekend trips. Talbots sent me these gorgeous mini macarons for Valentine’s Day, along with this heart and bike sweater! So sweet. Here’s what’s been on my radar this week: ONE //…
Busy getting gifts for friends? I’ve been slowly working my way through my “big ticket” items for everyone on my list… but it’s getting expensive. Phew! This is the easiest and cutest little gift for friends. You can do it in bulk without spending an arm and a leg. Everyone on your list will feel…
I hate wrinkles. And I hate ironing. But I also really hate how expensive the dry cleaner is. I’ve found that my small apartment is the worst for keeping clothes wrinkle free because everything gets smooshed in the closet or crumbled on the floor (keeping it real). While we were in Alaska, Julia and Thomas…
If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw the latest addition to my desk. I bought a new iMac (more on that later!) and whipped up a simple desktop wallpaper. It seriously took all of 30 seconds. There are a few ways to do this. I use Adobe Photoshop, but you can use any…
“How can I buy Lilly dresses on sale?” is a question I frequently get. Hopefully you’re reading here today because… now is your chance! LillyĀ only has a sale two times a year. Tomorrow morning is the start of their best one yet.
Here is a page with some FAQ questions regarding the sale.Ā And below are my sale tips:
As you guys know by now, I love thredUP. It’s one of my favorite places to treasure hunt for great clothes at great prices. I’ve actually felt a little un-inspired for summer shopping, until I started going through thredUP for a few summer staples. I added so many things to my cartā I just kept…
I have a confession to make. I’m cheating on my favorite app. I love Dropbox. It’s my go-to app for storing photos and documents in the cloud. There are only a handful of websites and apps that I use daily but Dropbox is absolutely one of those. When I first found out about Carousel, Dropbox’s photo…
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
