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’ve been SO excited to share my April reading list. I almost posted it early because I just couldn’t wait. But before I get into what I read (and what I highly recommend), I have to confess that I am just loving reading right now. I made a commitment to myself to read 52 books this…
Anyone else feeling slightly overwhelmed by all the sales going on? I know I am and I kind of shop online for a living. There’s just so much out there right now. I’m rounding up what I consider to be the “best buys” right now to help you narrow it down. Don’t forget, you can find…
Fashion week is kicking off and I’m actually kind of excited for it this year. I’m skipping all the shows (except Kate Spade– follow “collegeprepster” on Snapchat for a behind the scenes look), but so many people are in town that it’s more like a friend reunion. Garrett and I came into the city for…
On Instagram a few weeks ago, I asked for people to leave questions they had for me in the comments. I received so many good ones that I had to break it up. I filmed a video (the dogs were going crazy, and my hair was a mess, but done is better than perfect, right?)…
Earlier this year, Julia and I decided we wanted to go on a girls trip together. We definitely wanted to go someplace warm. Julia suggested Palm Beach, and it ended up being the best few days together. Traveling with friends is one of the greatest things to do. Not all friendships are cut out for…
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…
We’re going to Ireland in June!!!! Julia, Thomas, Garrett and I had so much fun in Alaska last year that we immediately started planning what the next trip would be. I think we narrowed in on Ireland pretty quickly and it’s safe to say that “excited” would be a gross understatement. (I think Mr. McCarthy…
I finally got around to going through the video footage from Ireland. It only took me, um, a month. I had planned to go through everything on the plane home but was too tired. I’m so glad I waited though because it made it that much more fun to go through all the different files!…

This year, I listened to some incredible audiobooks, but these five stood out as absolute favorites:
📚 A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith: A beautifully written coming-of-age classic. I didn’t want it to end and could absolutely see myself re-listening in a few years.
📚 None of This Is True by Lisa Jewell: A psychological thriller with unreliable narrators that kept me guessing the whole way through.
📚 Such a Bad Influence by Olivia Muenter: Part mystery, part family drama—flawed characters, a gripping storyline, and a chef’s kiss ending.
📚 All the Colors of the Dark by Chris Whitaker: A masterpiece of storytelling that starts as a serial killer mystery and evolves into something much bigger.
📚 Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors: A stunning exploration of sisterhood, grief, and imperfect people. The ending left me in tears (happy ones!).
#sponsored Bedtime with two little boys can be hectic to say the least! 😅 But I try to do what I can to make the transition smoother and help my baby get the best sleep possible. 💤 Desitin Maximum Strength Baby Diaper Rash Cream is the #1 pediatrician-recommended choice for diaper rash relief. The rich, thick formula creates a protective barrier on Rory’s skin, working for up to 12 hours to treat, heal, protect, soothe, and prevent diaper rash. And after bathtime, we use @aveenobaby Calming Comfort Lotion. This nourishing lotion, made with prebiotic oat, keeps my baby’s skin soft and smooth for 24 hours. Plus, the calming scent is perfect for winding down before bedtime. A little prep goes a long way in making bedtime easier for everyone! 🍼💤 Both are available on Amazon
Holding on for dear life this December ❤️ I have had SO MANY conversations this week with my friends near and far and we are *all* struggling. I have to say, just knowing it’s not just me feeling the pressure of “end of year-holiday magic- cold/flu/stomach bug season-darkest days of the year,” has made it a little easier to handle. Don’t forget to take care of yourself, too 😮💨 (Telling myself this because I could use the reminder too!)
If I hadn’t already mailed our Christmas cards*, I would be ordering a reprint because this first photo is IT. ⭐️💂🏻♀️
*Actually only half because for some reason, I didn’t order enough? Our list must have grown over the past year or I just underestimated how many people were on it! I had to order more so the second half will be going out later whoops!!

I’ve lost track of how many times we’ve met Santa already… but you’re only three once and you only have your first Christmas once!!🎅🏻
#ZarbeesPartner I love putting together thoughtful gifts for new moms and their families. Especially as the seasons change, having the right products helps everyone feel prepared and at ease. You can never predict when your household will get hit by a cold or flu so I always recommend having trusted products on hand so you’re never left in a pinch. For this gift, I included our go-to @zarbees Baby Daytime & Nighttime Cough Syrup + Immune. Made with organic agave to soothe baby’s dry throat and zinc to support their immune system, it’s safe for little ones 6 months and older. The nighttime formula even has chamomile to calm and comfort before bedtime—a must-have for peaceful nights 💛 Be prepared and order on @amazon.
