Valentine’s Day is starting to feel a little old-fashioned to me. Anyone else? I’m not super into the whole ~romantic~ elements of it, but I do like the pink and sweets. It’s a fun excuse to spoil yourself or show your girlfriends that you really appreciate their friendship.
I had SO much fun putting this together. You guys know I’ve been on a spending freeze! It’s still fun to browse and it makes putting these collages together extra fun.
I know that title looks a little dramatic, but honestly? That’s how I genuinely feel about my little AirPods. For years I have been a loyal Bose fan. Nothing beat their noise-canceling headphones and their in-ears. When iPhone ditched the headphone jack, I was fine using a dongle for a while. There were times when I…
Now that we’re a month into the year, two themes are emerging for me already. The first is that it’s not selfish to put yourself first. I’ve really been practicing taking care of myself and it’s making me an all-around better person, which allows me to be better for everyone else. (Win/win!) And the second is that I really, really like to dress comfortably.
I haven’t watched the Super Bowl live in years. (I’m more into the commercials and now they’re all online!) But this year I actually am going to be watching the game (aka the commercials ha) with some friends. Besides the commercials, I also love good football food! 11 Super Bowl Sunday Eats Guest post by…
I have always been a big fan of a white tee. In fact, I may be one of its biggest supporters. Over the years, I have stocked up on what has to be the most basic, but essential, closet staples. This is my favorite basic short sleeve white t-shirt and this is my favorite long sleeve. With such a simple “base” for an outfit, you can tone up (or down) your accessories for an endless number of looks. Add a blazer or a statement necklace or a vest. Wear with heels or ballet flats or even a comfy pair of sneaks.
Have you guys subscribed to my Youtube channel yet? I’m officially doing two videos a week and slowly getting the hang of it more. I had a lot of fun vlogging a couple of years ago, but ultimately, it felt a little too invasive. (Originally, I wanted to vlog because Snapchat cleared after 24 hours, but now that Instagram Stories are better, I don’t see a huge necessity in Youtubing that.)
I can’t believe how much I managed to squeeze into this week. Do you ever feel like there are weeks where you blink and it’s Friday and your to-do list is still a mile long and other weeks where you’re just on fire cranking through the to-dos? This was a ~fire~ week. One big highlight…
I wish I could wear ballet flats year round. Unfortunately, that’s often not the case in the winter months. (I do try to push the limits of this as much as I can though.) Instead of my beloved flats, I have a collection of winter boots that I love. These are all boots that I swear…
I wanted to share one of my favorite healthy lunches. I’m one of those people who can eat the same thing every single day. I don’t officially “meal prep” on Sundays since I work from home and it’s not completely necessary. However, I do tend to grocery shop on Sunday afternoons, with the rest of…
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.

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!!

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!
