I love hats. Like, love them. A) They keep the sun off my face and I’m really trying to protect my skin from sun damage. B) It’s a great way to cover up slightly dirty hair or tame wild salty and windblown hair. C) I have a big forehead and never mind covering up a…
This skirt might be my favorite item from J. Crew this year. They nailed absolutely everything about it. It’s truly a closet staple for summertime and can be dressed up and dressed down. Wear it to work or over a bathing suit at the beach. I really, really hope they bring it back in solids and…
I LOVE the Fourth of July. It has a pretty special place in my heart because we used to spend the holiday with a week vacation at my grandparent’s house on Oak Island in North Carolina. That week was always the highlight of our summer. The entire family would spend hours at the beach, participate…
I had to doublecheck my calendar twice to make sure it was actually time for Friday’s post. It’s been kind of a crazy week since my last On My Radar. We went out to a fancy dinner last Thursday, but I ended up having a pretty bad allergic reaction. (Even though I told them twice…
If fall lasted longer than two weeks, it would be my favorite season. There really are only a handful of days that are perfectly crisp, where the evening sun hangs on for a few extra minutes, and the leaves are gold but still have life in them. But since fall’s so fleeting, I think I…
I think the most exciting part of the week is that I’ve been finalizing my summer travel schedule. Last winter, I rented a house for a week in July on Nantucket, and I just found out that my sister is going to be able to join for a bit of the trip! I’m super excited…
I have been on some incredible trips with friends. It’s something that I think everyone should do because friendships only grow deeper after a wonderful trip. The stakes are a little higher, but it’s fun to be outside of the usual environment and to spend all day every day together. How to Getaway (the Right…
Even though I tell myself that I’m not going to buy another bathing suit, I end up breaking and doing it year after year. I’m picky about bathing suits. I don’t why exactly, but I get a little bit of panic every time I put on a bathing suit. It has nothing to do with how…
This past weekend, I took a spontaneous solo trip up to Rhode Island. My boyfriend was going to be out of town for a bachelor party, and our apartment had to be vacant on Saturday while an exterminator came. (That’s all I’ll say on that but 😷.) I didn’t want the dogs to be home…
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
… and yet you must. This week has been the hardest yet. Pressure from work, pressure from myself, pressure from the world. The magnitude of reality feels too much and too heavy. Showing up for my children though when I can barely show up for myself.
We’ve noticed an improvement in Teddy’s vitality and digestion since switching to @primalpetfoods Kibble in the Raw! It’s the easiest way to give him the benefits of raw nutrition without losing the convenience of dry kibble since it’s freeze dried into bites and completely scoopable. You would never guess he’s 11 years old with these moves at the park! #primalpetfoodspartner #ad
In that final home stretch of 2024 and waffling between wanting to plan out every second of my day/week/month and needing to also just fly by the seat of my pants. Holding on for dear life and telling myself to just enjoy the ride 🤪
When the boys go down for bed, sometimes it feels akin to crossing the finish line of a marathon! With my @therabody Theragun Sense, now I’m able to unwind and relax from the #WorkoutCalledLife. With step-by-step prompts on an LCD screen (and accompanying app), the Theragun Sense guides you through different recoveries depending on what your goals are. Tonight, I’m prepping for restful sleep with a six-minute guided massage! #TherabodyPartner
Halloween 2024 was one for the memory books 🏈 Rory’s first Halloween!! Jack had a blast, Rory loved tagging along, and Mike and I couldn’t stop smiling 🤍 I don’t know how many years I’ll be able to convince the boys to coordinate their costumes so really taking advantage- I bought Jack’s football player costume (customized!) and sewed Rory’s football bubble myself (Jack asked if he could throw him, which was a resounding and firm, “no.”). Now time to raid Jack’s stash 😛
#AveenoPartner If your little one has eczema prone skin, try switching to @aveenous’s Baby Daily Care Wash during bath time to cleanse without drying out their skin. We also use Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy Nighttime Moisturizing Body Balm before bed to intensely moisturize and help protect Rory’s skin from moisture loss! Not only does his skin feel and look healthier, he’s so much more comfortable too! You can buy both of these products today on Amazon!
