The other day, I posted a picture of my pink nail polish. I was on the subway riding back from a super long day at work and I just looked down and was happy! Light pink is definitely not the first color that I would turn to, but I’m kind of loving it lately. I’m…
I got my sister a GoPro camera for her trip to Australia earlier this summer. We were swimming in the backyard and took some footage under the water with the camera. It was really fun! (In typical Stacy fashion, the battery died pretty much right away… so all the cool stuff didn’t get recorded. Standard.) Bikini…
I’ve really been into tie-hem shirts lately! I remember when we were in elementary school, tying t-shirts and shirts at the waist was super in. (We used to use scrunchies to gather the loose part of a tee and make a “tail”… anyone else?) Taking button downs and tying them at the hem is a super…
It only took 12 hours of being in NYC before it felt like the trip to Florida was a decade ago. Honestly, I don’t understand how it happens! The plane landed, we came home, unpacked, went to sleep… and then bam! Insane city life again. I hit the ground running, speaking on a panel at…
I am writing this an hour before it goes live… that’s how swamped I am at school! In fact, I did not sleep at all last night!!! It was my first honest-to-goodness all-nighter. As in, I did not sleep one wink from Sunday at 7am until Monday at 2:30pm. Never again. (However, it was totally…
Is it just me or do weeks with holidays at the end move very slowly?! I’ve been watching the clock, just so excited to be traveling home to Florida. Can’t wait for swimming and relaxing! I have a semi-crazy day tomorrow and then we’re off first thing in the morning. Lots of packing and prepping…
I hope you guys don’t hate me for doing this today, but I wanted to share some of the scenic photos from our trip to the Bahamas. Despite growing up in Florida, this was my first trip the Bahamas. It’s definitely an easier journey from Florida, but still worth it despite a full day of…
My mom threw my sister and I the best birthday parties. Ever. She has this thing about “vision” and let me tell you, she’s awesome at it! Some of my personal favorites: A Pocahontas partyEveryone dressed up like PocahontasWe painted with sticks, leaves, pinecones, etc. on the drivewayHuge scavenger hunt for gold (spray painted rocks)…
I don’t have much to post about… I’ve just been hanging out without any cares in the world. To beat the heat, SM & I went to the movies on Saturday. We saw “My Life in Ruins.” Not an award winning movie, but a great summer chick flick nonetheless! We cracked up the whole time!…
Mom and dad proof of life ✌🏻 Also, what a difference it makes having a baby that takes a bottle 🙏🏻 It felt WILD to me going out! Still figuring out pumping on the go, and still went back home to nurse overnight… but wow!

Move over coastal grandmother, it’s going to be a red hot summer for me ❤️💃🏻🔥 I am love-love-loving red lately and I am incorporating the hue more and more into my everyday outfits. It’s a little bolder than I typically go for and, even though I’m three months postpartum, I’m feelin’ it! 👉🏻 Leave a comment saying “red” and I’ll send you the links to my outfits featured in the Reel!
My little roar-bear and I made it through the fourth trimester together 🧸 These past twelve weeks have flown by. I can’t wrap my head around the fact that we only just met- I feel like I have known Rory my whole life.
I have been calling myself a Chill Mom™️ since having Jack and now I’m realizing that I’m even chiller with Rory. (Like is birth order really less about sibling order and more about the version of mom you’re born to?) I’ve been just rolling with Rory’s infancy and I’m so much happier. Maybe it’s just that I’m more tired with a toddler too, or know that it’s going to go by so fast, or just have more confidence… probably a combination. I feel less obsessive and less stressed out by the details. I’m “making it” without having to fake it. As an example, today I noticed I hadn’t tracked a single nap- just watching sleepy cues and trying to get to a “good enough” pattern as Rory’s naps consolidate. Is he following a ~perfect~ nap schedule? No. Are we thriving? Frankly, yes!
