This was such a chill week here and I loved it. Slow mornings, easy afternoons, and low-key evenings. I took some time off this past weekend too and despite crummy weather it was definitely a great time to recharge. We had planned on going down the shore and the whole family decided last minute to…
We were originally going to head down the shore to spend Memorial Day weekend with Mike’s fam… but the weather didn’t look great so we’re going to do a fun fam hang up here. While I was looking forward to the beach, I actually think staying close to home is for the best. I’m grateful…
I love the concept of having a uniform to come back to on days when you’re not sure what to wear or just want an outfit you don’t have to think about. Over the years, I’ve found my own type of uniform, so to speak, or rather a strong sense of personal style. I prefer sticking…
I completely forgot I had this dress until a couple of weeks ago. My closet is pretty small and my dresses are mostly hung in the deep section of it…. which can make it hard to see everything that I have. I think because this dress is black and sleeveless, it was extra invisible back there. I…
This was a great, slow-in-the-best-way-possible week and I am grateful for it. I’m hoping for a slow summer pre-baby and this week felt like a little taste of that. LAST WEEK’S WIN: A couple of my mom’s friends threw me a baby shower down in Tampa and it was so nice! Definitely made things feel “real.”…
Mike and I have been talking about going into the city for a staycation for a long time. Once we both got fully vaccinated and we were able to put things on the calendar again, we found a weekend to make the staycation happen. It is so nice to be so close– it makes for such…
Anyone else finding time flying by? It must be the warm weather and summer being so close I can taste it! If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll note that I excluded pictures from our staycation in NYC. It was such a great weekend and I wanted all those photos in one post, so those…
This was a great week over here. I came off of a pretty busy work stretch from November until the end of April and it took me a solid two weeks to get my footing back into a “normal” work routine again. This was the first week where I felt like a normal sense of…
This year I’m making up for all of the dresses I didn’t get to wear last summer! I don’t know about you, but after spending most of the last year inside or at home, I’ve started to miss getting dressed up. It’s crazy how much of a difference throwing on a simple dress can make…
#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
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
