Well hello, hello. We’re back today with another Diary post, where I show what I’ve been up to over the past two weeks, according to my iPhone’s camera roll. Diary No.43 Mike is on a mission to perfect the Big Green Egg grilled pizza and I am excited to go along for the ride!! I…
Anyone else in disbelief Thanksgiving is in less than a week? I double checked my calendar twice because it just didn’t seem like it could be true. But alas, we’re blazing through November. I feel like this has been such a long year (for obvious reasons) and it’s weird to feel time move this quickly….
This post is sponsored by Olay! I am a huge fan of Olay’s Retinol24. It has been such a game-changer for my skin. I love that I now feel totally confident to go without makeup. It’s freeing! I haven’t always felt this way about my skin, especially as an adult. Having the confidence to not…
Mike and I are not doing a gift exchange this year. Because of our wedding, we feel like we are fully gifted out for a while. It’s actually a bit of a relief because we really were graciously showered with gifts from friends and family. We also exchanged nice gifts before our wedding and I…
Week of Outfits 11.17.20 Happy Tuesday! Here’s the last week of outfits I wore! TUESDAY Nothing too exciting! Just working from home and shooting more campaigns. Headband Sweater (Extra 30% off with “WARMUP”) Jeans Sneakers WEDNESDAY This t-shirt has been one of the best basics I’ve bought all year. I absolutely love the scoop neck…
My go-to pair of comfy ballet flats just got better. I have been a major fan of Margaux for years and years. It was love at first step, one might say. I have quite the collection– particularly of the Demi flats. They are comfortable from day one and wear beautifully. Margaux absolutely nailed the classic,…
Daylights savings right now has really messed with me. I don’t remember being this affected by the lack of light in the evenings as much as I am this year. I’m sure I’m not the only one. But I think between the lack of evening light, the frequent grey/rainy days, and being home a lot…
Bow lovers, this one is for Y O U! Since bows are trendy AF right now, they are everywhere. It’s been terrible for my wallet; but I don’t hate it. All the Bows My love of bows runs deep. One of my very earliest memories was from when I was a toddler and my mom…
This week. Thiiiiiiis week. I think I’m running on emotional fumes at the moment. It was PEAK peaks (like seriously got some of my best news of 2020) and LOW lows. I feel so drained. I think everything mixed with the darkness settling in by 4:30pm has me struggling. I’m trying to come up with…

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_us!
Just a girl searching for the perfect digital planner solution. What I have right now is working, technically speaking, but I’m working across platforms and ideally I’d love everything to be in one place. I also have calendar synesthesia (IYKYK) and I physically feel myself in space moving through my calendar, which makes finding a planner difficult because I want/need it to match up with what I see in my head I know this sounds insane but if you also “see” time, you know what I mean!
Right now I’m using:
– Google Sheets to track campaigns/business line items
– Google docs for writing/brainstorming
– Google/Apple Calendars (somehow they’re integrated and I don’t ask questions because it just works...)
– Apple Notes for daily to-dos, random note keeping, and quick jot downs
– Apple Reminders for “must dos” esp w/ deadlines
– Dropbox for photo/file storage
I’m craving a good ole fashioned paper planner but the reality is that I need it to be digital. I need it to integrate with my calendar and remind me of tasks. I need to be able to access it on my computer when I’m working at my desk and on my phone when I’m on the go. I need structure and flexibility?
Does the perfect digital planner exist?! Do I need to overcome my overwhelm and tackle @notionhq? Is an @apple iPad the solution? Do I just keep doing what I’m doing because it’s technically working?
If you’ve stuck around to the end, I appreciate you 🫡
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 🤪
