New and Now

I’ve honestly been pretty bad with my shopping lately. Normally this is my least favorite time of year to buy things because it’s peak heat, but fall stuff is coming out. (Why people… WHY!?)

Well, I’ve still managed to find a few things I just couldn’t resist. Some practical and some just for fun:

VIDEO | Puppy Playdate with Kiel and Sarah’s Puppy

| 8 Comments

After meeting Kiel and Sarah’s new puppy Bennie while on Nantucket, I knew we had to get a puppy playdate on the calendar ASAP.

If one more person says they’re ready for fall weather, I’ll scream. Yes, this week was miserably humid and hot. (I think it was worse than Florida at certain points… Suffocating really.) But still. Summer is my favorite. And as much as I love fall, I know I’m going to miss these hot summer days…

I have a closet full of plain white or blue, striped, seersucker, etc. shirtdresses. I had to add this popsicle print into my collection. It’s “fun” without being over the top. Just a warning, if you wear this dress, be prepared for everyone to exclaim, “Omg, are those popsicles?!” throughout the day!!! (I secretly love it.)

First Job Advice

| 44 Comments

My first job was an interesting one. (I worked at a tech startup for 13 months right out of college.) I wouldn’t change it at all because it was a valuable experience no matter which way you slice it. There were plenty of good days and there were plenty of bad days, but they all…

Where to Begin if You Want to Journal

I am so in love with this post for a few reasons. One, it was requested by a reader. I can’t even begin to tell you how much your emails and snaps and tweets and comments make my day. They really do! Two, Maxie dug up an old post that brought back so many memories. I…
