I am obsessed with the Theragun Mini! I ordered one a few weeks ago when it was on sale during Cyber Week and I’m so, so into it. Let’s rewind though. This is not my first Theragun! Two Christmases ago, Mike gave me a Theragun. (I’m pretty certain he bought it knowing he would be…
This is going to be my last gratitude list post of the year. I have a feeling I’ll do more in 2021, but I only have a few more posts to go live before I take a week off from posting. Putting together gratitude lists has been a bright spot throughout the year. Especially when…
I love that this is a mix of super comfortable outfits and some festive looks. We’ve pretty much locked down here again so… not really doing anything or going anywhere besides taking the dogs for (loooooong) walks and the occasional grocery store run. C’est la vie. WEEK OF OUTFITS 12.15.20 TUESDAY As this look may…
I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since I did my last Beauty Empties post. This isn’t a fully comprehensive list– but just what I remembered to save!!! Whoops. Clearly, I’m no beauty blogger. But wanted to share some of the products that have gotten me through the past year (which, insanely enough, is…
With winter absolutely here and months of cold ahead of us, I wanted to do this post about Dudley Stephens. I love my Dudley Stephens fleece turtlenecks. They are absolutely “trendy” as far as Instagram is concerned– they’re everywhere– but it’s for good reason. I got my first one three years ago and I’ve been a…
One of my absolute favorite things about the winter is skiing. On paper, skiing is not something I ever thought I’d enjoy. But lo and behold, I love it! I really love everything about it– the exercise, the fresh air, the scenery, the camaraderie. And I also really love après ski. I mean who wouldn’t though?…
This week was kind of “magical.” I FINALLY rounded the corner in terms of my work stress (which always peaks the two weeks following Thanksgiving) and slowly dipped my toes into feeling the holiday spirit. I think I pinpointed that I was feeling a bit of grief over this year. Particularly how the holidays will…
S’Mores Bar I shot these photos with Elsa a few weeks ago for Talbots. We’re featured on their blog and I had a sponsored post on Instagram, but I also wanted to share the photos here. They asked if we wanted to do the campaign together and I couldn’t ask for a better partner in…
This post is sponsored by Shopstyle and Backcounty! 15 THINGS TO DO OUTSIDE THIS WINTER WITH BACKCOUNTRY Last month, I discussed my philosophy about getting outside no matter what the weather is like! In short, I like to adopt the Scandinavian phrase: “There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes.” When you’re dressed…

It usually takes 10x longer, is way messier, and requires a lot more patience to do things with a three year old toddler… but it’s also kind of magic. (You know, once the cracked eggs are cleaned up from the hardwood floor of course…) 👩🏻🍳 🧑🏼🍳

Christmas came early this year 🎁✨ My mom completely surprised me with her original copy of Entertaining by @marthastewart48 —her very first book! This was on my totally delusional wish list, and I can’t believe she not only still had it but actually gave it to me 🥹. Growing up, my mom was the ultimate “Martha Stewart mom,” making every holiday, party, and little moment feel so magical for my sister and me. Receiving this feels like such a special passing of the torch, and I hope I can carry on even a fraction of the thoughtfulness and creativity she poured into everything for my own children. Feeling so inspired (and emotional!) about this gift. 💕 Can’t wait to sit down and read this! #ChristmasSurprise #EntertainingByMartha #FamilyTraditions @marthastewart
Year after year, I keep coming back to @shutterfly for personalized gifts that feel truly thoughtful. There’s just something special about custom gifts—they really say, I was thinking of you.

#ZarbeesPartner @zarbees is helping us get the best night of sleep possible! Our sleep routines got shaken up after Daylight Savings Time ended, so we are doing what we can to get back on track and get back into good sleep hygiene routines. I’m keeping Zarbees Children’s Sleep Gummies with Melatonin on hand and we added Zarbees Calming Bedtime Spray into our nightly routine– with calming natural lavender and chamomile to set the mood for a restful night of sleep. Plus, with no artificial fragrances, parabens, or petroleum I can rest easy, too. Buy now on Amazon! #FromOurHivetoYours
✨ leave a comment with “SKIN” and I’ll send you all the products mentioned here ✨
I turned 35 in September and while I’ve always tried to take good care of my skin I wanted to really prioritize skincare from the inside out. At this point, I’m not doing any kind of injectables (not that I’m against them broadly speaking btw... just sharing that I haven’t done anything) and I don’t want to do anything invasive. I have made some small adjustments to my everyday life though that has made a difference. In just a few months, I really think my skin has never looked better (and I include infancy here because I unfortunately had baby acne ) and I’m really feeling good:
– Fresh washcloths after cleansing skin (@weezietowels “makeup” washcloths are cute, super soft, and very practical)
– @omniluxled Omnilux Contour Face (this red light therapy mask has CHANGED the game for my skin. I use it 3-4x a week and it only takes 10 minutes per session!)
– @jolieskinco filtered showerhead (I’ve noticed a difference in both my skin AND hair)
– @ritual HyaCera (one capsule every night– it works from the inside out to help reduce the appearance of fine lines)
While I think my skin looks great on its own right now (🙌🏻 love to say that!), it also is serving as the best base for makeup. Sharing my current everyday routine:
– @supergoop Mineral Unseen Sunscreen
– @summerfridays Sheer Skin Tint (shade 1)
– @merit Bronze Balm Sheer Sculpting Bronzer (shade clay)
– @saiebeauty Dew Blush Liquid Cream (shade chilly)
– @jonesroadbeauty Shimmer Face Oil (shade cool rose)
– @sephora collection Eyebrow Gel (shade ebony)
– @honest Extreme Length Mascara
– @urbandecaycosmetics 24/7 Glide On Eyeliner (shade demolition)
– @iliabeauty Balmy Lip Tint (shade lullaby)
girlhood 🫶🏻 find friends who want to do the same little hobbies as you! Went over to @shihstitches’ house yesterday to give her some sourdough starter and go through the basics (I’m *very much* a beginner so I told her to take my lesson with a grain of salt)
PS convinced her to make an IG account! @blueskyehouse
PPS she’s convincing me I really do need a fancy range like her ✨ stunning ✨ @lacanche.usa
