Over the years, I have slowly changed my tune about spring. I think it’s become my favorite season. I love going on daily walks and looking for buds on trees and new flowers pushing through. Last year, at the beginning of the lockdowns, those daily spring walks were what got me through March and April….
Anyone else hear Miranda Priestly saying, “Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking.” It’s all I hear whenever I pull out something particularly floral. This dress has me feeling all the springy feels. Luckily I didn’t have to wait too long for a nice day to wear it! I put it right in the front of my closet…
Last week was pretty…. normal. I say this in the best possible way. Because we can finally start socializing outside again, it feels like our town has come back to life. I know other states are kind of business as usual, but I feel like New Jersey, or at least where we live, has been…
I love baseball hats. I wear them almost every day in the summer. Even if it’s not part of my outfit, I almost always wear one while walking the dogs for sun protection. Also great for windy days at the beach and dirty hair days, obviously. I have quite the collection of baseball hats throughout the…
I’ve been a fan of M.M.LaFleur for a while, so I was excited they wanted to partner again for their latest spring line. It seems that every collection they come out with, they raise their own bar. This year, their focus has been on what they are describing as “Power Casual.” I might just need…
Wanted to share six recent purchases with you guys. I’ve been actually excited to add things to my closet again– nothing too crazy. I’m leaning into comfort for my changing body and also ready for dresses and the warmer weather ahead. Would love to know what you’re buying, if anything, too! SIX RECENT PURCHASES GINGHAM…
Does anyone else feel like this year is moving at warp speed?? I spent the first bit of the year in a daze, but I feel like I just looked up and all of a sudden it was mid-March. I couldn’t believe how quickly St. Patrick’s day crept up. ON MY RADAR 3.19.21 The afternoon…
I’ve had this epiphany recently and I wanted to share it with you guys. Epiphany actually may be overstating things, but it really did feel like such an “aha moment” to me. I’m sure you all have heard of taking a “mental health day.” Usually it means taking a day off of work or school…
J. Crew recently sent me a goody box filled with some of their crowd-pleasing cashmere sweaters. Included was this cashmere gingham sweater that, well, couldn’t be more me. I love that it feels springy (and can certainly work in the summer months as well), while still being warm and cozy. It’s the perfect option for…
✨ 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)
girlhood 🫶🏻 find friends who want to do the same little hobbies as you! Went over to @shihstitches’ house yesterday to give her some sourdough starter and go through the basics (I’m *very much* a beginner so I told her to take my lesson with a grain of salt)
PS convinced her to make an IG account! @blueskyehouse
PPS she’s convincing me I really do need a fancy range like her ✨ stunning ✨ @lacanche_us!
Just a girl searching for the perfect digital planner solution. What I have right now is working, technically speaking, but I’m working across platforms and ideally I’d love everything to be in one place. I also have calendar synesthesia (IYKYK) and I physically feel myself in space moving through my calendar, which makes finding a planner difficult because I want/need it to match up with what I see in my head I know this sounds insane but if you also “see” time, you know what I mean!
Right now I’m using:
– Google Sheets to track campaigns/business line items
– Google docs for writing/brainstorming
– Google/Apple Calendars (somehow they’re integrated and I don’t ask questions because it just works...)
– Apple Notes for daily to-dos, random note keeping, and quick jot downs
– Apple Reminders for “must dos” esp w/ deadlines
– Dropbox for photo/file storage
I’m craving a good ole fashioned paper planner but the reality is that I need it to be digital. I need it to integrate with my calendar and remind me of tasks. I need to be able to access it on my computer when I’m working at my desk and on my phone when I’m on the go. I need structure and flexibility?
Does the perfect digital planner exist?! Do I need to overcome my overwhelm and tackle @notionhq? Is an @apple iPad the solution? Do I just keep doing what I’m doing because it’s technically working?
If you’ve stuck around to the end, I appreciate you 🫡
I created a beautiful, custom silk photo album from @printique_by_adorama to remember my sweet dog Hamilton, who passed away earlier this year. Their layflat album captured the colors and details perfectly, making each photo feel so special. It’s a keepsake I’ll cherish forever, and I’m so grateful for the quality and love they put into every page. #printiquepartner
… and yet you must. This week has been the hardest yet. Pressure from work, pressure from myself, pressure from the world. The magnitude of reality feels too much and too heavy. Showing up for my children though when I can barely show up for myself.
We’ve noticed an improvement in Teddy’s vitality and digestion since switching to @primalpetfoods Kibble in the Raw! It’s the easiest way to give him the benefits of raw nutrition without losing the convenience of dry kibble since it’s freeze dried into bites and completely scoopable. You would never guess he’s 11 years old with these moves at the park! #primalpetfoodspartner #ad
In that final home stretch of 2024 and waffling between wanting to plan out every second of my day/week/month and needing to also just fly by the seat of my pants. Holding on for dear life and telling myself to just enjoy the ride 🤪
