As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, today’s post is all about staying at the Ritz in Paris. It was such an incredible hotel experience that I felt like it deserved its own post… plus I got so many DMs asking about how my stay was because other people were planning their Paris trips. I spent…
I wanted to make sure my entire trip was in one post instead of spreading it out between different posts. As a result, it’s long and photo-heavy. I hope you don’t mind… at the very least, consider this a 20-minute escape from your everyday. Ideally, I wish everyone could have tagged along for the trip…
I personally just wrote a list of things I want (errr, need) to do before the end of the year. Top of the list? Organize and stock our pantry. In my old apartment, I had so many great cabinets and storage space in the kitchen. This apartment’s kitchen is tiny yet surprisingly functional and all…
I’m going to be doing a detailed itinerary of what we did in Paris, but first I thought I’d round up the outfits I packed. Not going to lie here… I did an excellent job of packing the right things. Packing is one of the stressors I have when it comes to traveling. (And it…
Tonight, we turn our clocks back an hour. Even though it makes things pretty dark in the evening, I prefer it just because I find it way easier to get up in the morning when it’s brighter. Plus, gaining an hour is a lot better than losing an hour. I am actually pretty lucky this…
Welcome to another On My Radar. This past week has been one of my favorites, ever. My trip to Paris was incredible and I can’t wait to share more of it with you guys in the next week. In the meantime, you can check out my Instagram for some of the posts + I saved all…
As tough as social media can be at times– whether it’s making you feel bad about your life, disrupting your sleep, or the source of bullying– it can be a good thing. Obviously, I blog full time and have been able to see a lot of the good of social media, but one thing that I…
Happy Halloween! To be honest, I haven’t totally celebrated the holiday for years. I haven’t even been able to hand out candy to kids… and this year is no exception as I’ll be on a flight back from Paris. One year!!! I do have very fond memories of Halloween growing up because my best friend always…
Can you guys tell that I’m addicted to Gal Meets Glam dresses? I recently sent Julia a photo of the garment rack in my office (which doesn’t even include what’s in my actual closet) and it was 1/3 GMG dresses. Here’s the thing… they’re dresses that I LOVE. I think the fit is perfect, the…
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!!
Moisture rich balm + Ritual Oil + Balancing Mist
(Why has no one been using this song for this trend? Literally all that I hear whenever I see another “ins and outs” trend 😆)

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!
