I refuse to think about riding boots and cable knit sweaters just yet. I’m bracing myself for when all the stores switch over their summer inventory for the fall inventory. But for the time being, there are still some great deals out there! I rounded up over twenty items under $50!!!
When people find out that I grew up in Florida, I think they assume that I went to the beach every week or something. My sister goes a lot for sure, but I’m so pale that I typically don’t enjoy sitting out in the sun for too long. (Putting on sunscreen takes forever.) Even though I…
I’m normally pretty good about not making rash decisions. (If anything, I tend to wait way too long to make a decision because I want to make sure it’s perfect.) But at the beginning of the year, I found myself itching to make big changes. I never felt good about the choices; I was just bulldozing…
This is (kind of) a part two to my original post about traveling with friends. Traveling can stress me out, but when there are friends involved, you really can’t go wrong. Well, actually, I take that back. Traveling with friends CAN go wrong, but it doesn’t have to!!! Read up on the first post because those…
This week was good for the soul. I extended my Nantucket visit by a day and packed in as much sun and fun as I could with some of my very favorite friends. I did get some work done so I don’t feel completely overwhelmed opening my laptop again… but I didn’t collect as many links…
I am the farthest thing from a health nut. I do practice “moderation” the best that I can, but I will never have the willpower to say no to a Dominos pizza. You know? That said, after getting pretty sick last year and facing a scary reality that (surprise!) I’m not invincible, I realized that…
Hope everyone has been having a lot of fun celebrating the Fourth the July! I always feel like the summer starts to speed by once we hit July, but I hope that isn’t the case this year!!!
PS Here’s an old post on how to write with sparklers if you have a fun barbecue planned today.
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!
