I know that this is not a new trend, but I have been so into statement earrings lately. Even this weekend, I threw on a favorite pair of white floral statement earrings with jeans and a white tee. All of a sudden, my outfit was just that much more elevated and I didn’t feel quite…
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…
Back today with another installment of 1 Girl, 5 Outfits! This time we’re featuring Sara who lives in upstate New York. She emailed me with the idea of being featured as someone who doesn’t dwell in a city and I loved that idea. Hey there! My name is Sara Albinger, I’m (almost!) 27 years old…
I am absolutely obsessed with this dress from the Gal Meets Glam Collection that just launched. I’ve loved every single one that I’ve received, but this one takes the cake for me. I loved it from the second I saw it in the lookbook and it only went up from there. I’ve never received so…
Happy Friday friends! This week was pretty uneventful for me in a good way. I was able to get a lot accomplished and I’m going into this long weekend feeling great. One weird thing happened to me though: I had a panic attack (at the gym 😫). The crazy thing about it is that I…
I’ve been kind of Marie Kondō-ing my life lately. If you’re unfamiliar, Marie Kondō is the woman being The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, a book that gives you strategies and tips for totally decluttering your home. The essence of the tips can be boiled down to: does this object bring me joy. Of course in actual life,…
There are plenty of things about summer that I look forward to: the sun being out past 9 pm, shutting down work a little earlier on a Friday afternoon, watermelon for days, weekend adventures, dining al fresco… and dresses. As much as I love my jeans and sweaters (and you guys know I love my jeans and…
I have to do a little recap of our stay at The Gasparilla Inn last week. It is such a happy place for me and I wish everyone can experience it at some point. My family went there together for the first time a couple of years ago and I have been dreaming about going…
If your goals for 2025 include reading more and having better habits, @audible audiobooks are about to be your best friend! I love listening to audiobooks, especially when they help me become a better person, wife, friend, mom, etc. January is the perfect time to dive into one and cross two of your goals off at once. I’m listening to Mel Robbins’ Let Them Theory and it’s blowing my mind– “let them” is such a simple phrase and yet the impact is POWERFUL. Right now, eligible new subscribers can sign up to get your first 3 months of #Audible for $0.99/month! #AudiblePartner #amazoninfluencer @amazoninfluencerprogram
Can we bring this kind of outfit of the day video over to this app 👀 tell me if you like it or hate it- in light of everything, trying to experiment! If you want links to what I’m wearing, leave a comment with “OUTFIT” and I’ll send it over!
Sorry for the jump scare… but go ahead and add “great at multitasking” to my resume 😆 is it habit stacking or just survival mode? Every morning, I’ve been doing a red light session with my @omniluxled face mask, while listening to an audiobook, and I spend the 10 minutes tidying up. I make the beds, put laundry away, straighten up the boys’ toys… I always feel on top of the world and like I can do anything 😆
I’ve been hesitant to add new skincare products to my daily routine because I don’t want to disrupt my healthy skin… I tested @oakessentials skincare line though and it’s now a staple in my weekly routine. I’m using these three 2-3x a week (the night before hair wash days!) and my skin is SO moisturized and hydrated!!
Moisture rich balm + Ritual Oil + Balancing Mist

Yes, I’m an iPad adult now ✌🏻 I have been feeling all over the place with how I stay organized. In a dream world, I’d have a good ole fashioned paper planner, but I need something digital that I can access wherever I am and set alarms and reminders and appointments in my digital calendar. Kicking the new year off with a fresh iPad in the hopes that it helps?? Kind of felt like back to school shopping with fresh school supplies (but more expensive lol)… here’s to an organized twenty twenty five!! 🥂
PS I am trying out @goodmondayspaper on @goodnotes.app and went with an 11” iPad Air!
