On Sunday, I went to the Tony Awards watch party hosted by IBM followed by the after party at the Plaza. This was my third year attending, and the excitement has not worn off. It’s such a ridiculously fun night. Super fancy dresses, an insane amount of delicious food, and celebrities everywhere. While I think I’d prefer…
About to type something I thought I would never type here on the blog. If you’re not shopping at Abercrombie, you are missing out!!! I almost don’t want to share because I feel like it’s the best-kept secret right now. But what kind of blogger would I be then?!
I ordered this white eyelet dress. It’s currently on sale, but even at full price, it’s 100% worth it. Like dress-of-the-summer worth it.
I am, for better or for worse, very Type A. I was joking with a friend that he was Type-Lower-Case-A and I was Type-Upper-Case-A. He then added that it was more like upper case, and bold, and italicized… and possibly with an exclamation point at the end too. In a lot of ways, I’m glad…
I’m excited to partner with thredUP on this post today. After advice for starting a blog, my next most asked question is how to build a wardrobe on a budget, without sacrificing style or quality. I have been using thredUP for a couple of years actually. It’s one of the websites I always go to when I’m looking for a particular item of clothing from a past season.
Oh, man… details. I’m normally a pretty detail-oriented person, but occasionally I let things slip. It usually happens when I’m tired or have too much on my plate. One week, I missed a flight because I went to the wrong airport and missed a train because I had the stations reversed. It made me take…
I was really struggling with figuring out what to pack for my Paris trip. I had been watching the weather, and it was changing dramatically every few days. At one point, it looked like it was going to be 65 degrees and pouring rain the entire time. It turns out it was over 90 degrees and brutally hot the whole time. Despite threats of thunderstorms, we only experienced 20 minutes of the lightest drizzle on Sunday.
My original plan for packing was going to be skinny jeans, cute pants, trench coats, and lots of striped shirts. Thankfully I packed lots of sundresses instead!
Happy Saturday everyone! I’m so, so looking forward to a relaxing weekend. I’ve had such an incredible time traveling this entire year really, but I think I need some downtime asap!
I have no need for anything new, but it’s not stopping me from doing some window shopping online. Below are some things that are catching my eye
My traveling spree is finally coming to an end today! It’s been a crazy few weeks of nearly back to back trips, so I’m kind of excited to get back into a good rhythm of being home with the pups. I still have a lot of Paris content to share (here’s the big travel guide…
Below are some ideas that I think for excellent gifts. In the past, two-thumbs-up gifts I’ve given my dad these sneakers (he LOVED them), Bose headphones, and a Nespresso maker.
Tonight we achieved the impossible! @wishbonekitchen’s swamp soup received a “no notes” stamp of approval from Mike 🙌🏻 it’s filling, healing, and so fresh! Highly recommend!!! 💚🌿🪀♻️🦖
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
