One thing we were all looking forward to during our Bahamas trip was visiting Noname Key to see the pigs. My sister has been a couple of times with her friends and kept saying how much I’d love it. (Well, she warned that the big pigs might freak me out… and she was right ha!)…
I am the first to admit that I don’t have an eye for interior design. I watch HGTV and read interior design blogs with pure awe. Watching people pull visions out of thin air or reading about interior choices fascinates me. I look at the houses Chip & Jo choose to flip and the first…
There’s something about winter being over where everything seems to pick up. Social engagements happen left and right, work gets a little more intense. I feel like I’m coming out of hibernation in a way, and with that can come a feeling of being overwhelmed. Maxie is here today to share some advice for what to…
Leading up to our trip to the Bahamas, Vineyard Vines sent us each a few boxes of clothes. It was a bit like Christmas because I wasn’t exactly sure what would be inside! The three of us (Kelly, Mackenzie, and myself) are all the same size so we knew we could mix, match, and trade if…
I’ve been trying to include more affordable shopping options on Saturdays. I was looking around online and noticed that J. Crew Factory has an amazing promotion right now for Easter weekend. It’s a great time to stock up on staples and to freshen up your warm-weather wardrobe. I bought this dress last year from Madewell…
Happy Friday, friends! Thought I’d share some highlights from this week: – I found a vet for my dogs! Sounds so lame, but if you have pets you know how important quality care is. I had been putting this off for a bit and both dogs were coming up on due dates for revaccinations. On Wednesday night…
Ugh. It’s been a hectic few weeks. I don’t feel like I’ve been able to give my blog (aka you guys!) enough of my attention lately. There’s been a lot going on in the backend business end of the blog– big partnerships, tax season, setting up in NJ, etc not to mention the energy it…
Now that I have an actual office space in my new apartment (🙌🏻), I have been in a highly productive mode at all times. It’s amazing what natural light will do for you. I kind of underestimated it in my old apartment. I knew it bothered me that my desk was set up in a…
Be sure to follow along Instagram later tonight because I’ve teamed up with Draper James for a fun giveaway 😉 I took these photos last week a couple of days before the snow storm. It was still way too cold to be out in sandals and a dress, but I couldn’t resist getting a few shots…
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. Right now, eligible new subscribers can sign up to get your first 3 months of #Audible for $0.99/month! #AudiblePartner #amazoninfluencer @amazoninfluencerprogram
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!
