OMG. I’m reading this post feeling completely guilty right now. I ordered takeout twice in the past week. Ever since I moved to Connecticut, I did a pretty good job at kicking my takeout/delivery habit. But, last week I found myself with zero desire to go out or cook in. So take out it was! I…
A few of my friends have this top, and I knew that I would eventually break down and get it for myself. With hit or miss weather as of late, I’ve been trying to look for some pieces to add to my closet that I can wear with white jeans. I’m normally a dress/skirt kind…
Guys!!! Major shopping PSA.
My favorite white tee is BACK. And it’s not just my favorite white tee; I’d go so far to say it’s the perfect white tee. I bought it on a whim last year (or the year before?), and it’s on heavy rotation in my wardrobe during the summer months. Well, year round.
I have been in a bit of a fog this week! I had such an amazing weekend, and it just made Monday feel like an extra letdown. On Saturday, I got a severe sunburn. I’m pretty sure it was more in the category of sun poisoning. (I am very angry with myself for letting it…
One of my favorite posts to write on here are my book recommendations. Whenever I meet with a friend I haven’t seen in a while, I always end up writing out some books for their “homework.” I’m the go-to girl in my friend group for book recommendations– and I love it. I also love these posts…
Is there anything happier than a field of tulips?! I’m not quite sure. I drove up to Rhode Island last week to do a little tulip picking with Kiel, Sarah, Dave, and Sophie. It had rained for two days and I was looking forward to a morning outside! Wicked Tulips is a MUST for tulip picking.
It seems like the tulips just go on forever– every color you can imagine. (I’ve heard that they opened the big fields up too, so definitely hop on it!)
Whoa! Graduation season really crept up on me. I have had “graduation gifts” on my blog post list for weeks now, and all of a sudden it’s May and still no post! I have a couple of people I have to get gifts for that are graduating high school and a few graduating from college so I’m taking notes for my own shopping needs. (I think everyone is getting this monogrammed tassel keychain mobile charger!) Nearly everything on here would work for college or high school graduates, with the exception of the college survival kit, but you can swap in one of the classic kits.
I recently partnered with FabFitFun and just received my first box in the mail last week! I have tried a few subscription boxes in the past, but FabFitFun is in its own league. For $49.99 you receive over $200 worth of (full-sized!) fashion, beauty, fitness, and lifestyle products four times a year. I love that…
Happy Sunday, friends! Switching things up this week… I have a post going up tomorrow, so I moved Maxie Monday to Sunday. Without a doubt, Maxie is one of my friends who I consider to be a peer mentor. We have the usual conversations 20-something girls might have (swapping dating stories and a thorough discussion…
@ohmymahjong hooked me UP! Learning mahjong has been on my mind for a while and this year we finally made it happen! My 97 year old grandma Charlotte plays mahjong every week- and now that I have learned, I know what’s been keeping her so young! Mahjong is FUN and the perfect mix of luck and strategy. The rules can be a lot to learn (I’m still learning for sure) but it’s easy to pick up with a good teacher.
Thank you #ohmymahjong for all the fun goodies… chic tiles, a handy mat, great organizers! Everything we need for our next mahjong girls night! #mahjong
🏈🍴 As a #HoodPartner, I’m bringing my A-game with a chili bar featuring the ultimate all-star—@hphood Sour Cream. Made with real Hood Milk and Cream, every bite’s a win with high quality flavor!
When your toothbrush (@shoptrask!) is so cute you ALMOST don’t want to use it! I considered “saving” it (for what? I don’t know) and decided to ignore my instinct and enjoy it every day! I often have to remind myself about the number of stickers I didn’t use as a kid because I was “saving” them… or stationery collecting dust in a drawer because I was “saving” them… or candles that went unlit because I was “saving” them… or even a cute outfit I was “saving” for a special occasion. Trying to be better about using the things I have and love without guilt!!
I’ve been loving wearing my scarf collection and I’ve been getting questions about how I tie them! This is probably the way I wear it most- it’s super easy and the trick is to not be overly fussy with it. Go for it and zhuzh it up a little but don’t make it too perfect! Goal is effortless!
Fold the silk scarf across the middle to create a long triangle. Holding the two corners, twist the triangle back *towards* you a few times. While holding the corners, wrap behind your neck crossing behind you and pulling the corners back to the front of your neck. Tie once, then again to secure. I like to tuck mine into a button down!
PS I got this Hermes scarf as a souvenir while in Paris!

A wild Saturday night around here… and I wouldn’t want it any other way! A relaxing shower, clean hair, cozy bedtime routine, sourdough, laundry, a clean playroom, mahjong, (a little sweet treat… or two), needlepoint, skincare, and a good book! What could be better???
An evening routine as a mom of two with timestamps!
@mackenziechilds has done it again! Say hello to Mocha Check, the latest pattern in the MacKenzie-Childs family. I am loving how the neutral but warm tones brighten up my office space! Swipe to see how I’ve incorporated the pieces throughout my office. #MCPartner #MCMochaCheck
Getting ready for the day and need help picking out which shoe to wear! My whole outfit is head to toe @amazon! Are we feeling the sneakers or the kitten heel mules?
