I wanted to pop on to share a bunch of Gal Meets Glam dresses that are new and some old favorites of mine that are available again! WHAT’S NEW: SERENA (c/o) Hello bow-perfection! This dress strikes the perfect balance of flirty and appropriate. I like how the shorter hemline can still work for many kinds…
I’m turning 30 in two weeks! I’ve made a few things on this list (roast chicken, cupcakes, salmon, risotto) but definitely have some work to do building out my kitchen skills and recipe repertoire! 10 Recipes to Cook Before 30 Guest post by Louisa from Living Lou I’m making my way through my twenties right…
This room is going to take a while to fully put together. It’s all in the details, of course, but most furniture just takes ~forever~ to deliver. I wanted to live in the house for a little bit before I tackled this room. We did the kitchen and family room first. Working on the master…
This has been a fun two weeks of travel and visitors! Some iPhone snaps: Mike’s family’s boathouse is dreamy. We spent most of the (extra long) weekend up there playing ping pong, reading, and looking out at the water. I have to say… why on earth is ping pong so fun?! Could have played for hours!…
I have a full weekend of house projects lined up! From assembling furniture to doing a little bit of painting and working on our yard some more. I have to say, I find these things to be so rewarding. Every week, it feels a bit more like home!! Hosting a little giveaway to celebrate hitting 10k…
National Thrift Day is this Saturday, August 17. I’m excited to announce my partnership with my favorite online resale site thredUP just in time to celebrate the day (stay tuned for a special promo at the end of this post). This year I’ve been really trying to implement greener practices into my life. I’m not perfect, but I’m…
I kind of want to buy an Hermès scarf to frame in our living room. I actually haven’t purchased a single thing for the entire room so we’re working with a completely blank canvas. I’d say that I’m pretty open to everything in there but if I found a gorgeous scarf for one of the…
I’ve “retired” nearly all of my Lilly dresses. I have a few that I keep up here with me but I just don’t have that many opportunities to wear them and I find myself reaching for different brands/styles even when I go on trips. I will still forever love Lilly, but I think my days of…
I’ve always been a fairly regimented person, which lends itself well to being a consistent person. Although I’m not consistent with everything, if I put my mind to something more often than not I’ll stick with it for the duration of the goal (and longer). Maxie’s here to share some great things to keep in mind…

It usually takes 10x longer, is way messier, and requires a lot more patience to do things with a three year old toddler… but it’s also kind of magic. (You know, once the cracked eggs are cleaned up from the hardwood floor of course…) 👩🏻🍳 🧑🏼🍳

Christmas came early this year 🎁✨ My mom completely surprised me with her original copy of Entertaining by @marthastewart48 —her very first book! This was on my totally delusional wish list, and I can’t believe she not only still had it but actually gave it to me 🥹. Growing up, my mom was the ultimate “Martha Stewart mom,” making every holiday, party, and little moment feel so magical for my sister and me. Receiving this feels like such a special passing of the torch, and I hope I can carry on even a fraction of the thoughtfulness and creativity she poured into everything for my own children. Feeling so inspired (and emotional!) about this gift. 💕 Can’t wait to sit down and read this! #ChristmasSurprise #EntertainingByMartha #FamilyTraditions @marthastewart
Year after year, I keep coming back to @shutterfly for personalized gifts that feel truly thoughtful. There’s just something special about custom gifts—they really say, I was thinking of you.

Our sleep routines got shaken up after Daylight Savings Time ended, so we are doing what we can to get back on track and get back into good sleep hygiene routines.

✨ leave a comment with “SKIN” and I’ll send you all the products mentioned here ✨
I turned 35 in September and while I’ve always tried to take good care of my skin I wanted to really prioritize skincare from the inside out. At this point, I’m not doing any kind of injectables (not that I’m against them broadly speaking btw... just sharing that I haven’t done anything) and I don’t want to do anything invasive. I have made some small adjustments to my everyday life though that has made a difference. In just a few months, I really think my skin has never looked better (and I include infancy here because I unfortunately had baby acne ) and I’m really feeling good:
– Fresh washcloths after cleansing skin (@weezietowels “makeup” washcloths are cute, super soft, and very practical)
– @omniluxled Omnilux Contour Face (this red light therapy mask has CHANGED the game for my skin. I use it 3-4x a week and it only takes 10 minutes per session!)
– @jolieskinco filtered showerhead (I’ve noticed a difference in both my skin AND hair)
– @ritual HyaCera (one capsule every night– it works from the inside out to help reduce the appearance of fine lines)
While I think my skin looks great on its own right now (🙌🏻 love to say that!), it also is serving as the best base for makeup. Sharing my current everyday routine:
– @supergoop Mineral Unseen Sunscreen
– @summerfridays Sheer Skin Tint (shade 1)
– @merit Bronze Balm Sheer Sculpting Bronzer (shade clay)
– @saiebeauty Dew Blush Liquid Cream (shade chilly)
– @jonesroadbeauty Shimmer Face Oil (shade cool rose)
– @sephora collection Eyebrow Gel (shade ebony)
– @honest Extreme Length Mascara
– @urbandecaycosmetics 24/7 Glide On Eyeliner (shade demolition)
– @iliabeauty Balmy Lip Tint (shade lullaby)
