I LOVE summer barbecues. Like, love isn’t even a big enough word. Give me corn on the cob, a burger, watermelon slices, and some cole slaw and I am one happy lady. I think a big part of it is that barbecues encourage outdoor eating and lots of togetherness, so I have the best memory…
As sad as it can be not living near my family, it’s pretty great they live somewhere fun like Tampa. It’s hard to believe that I’m coming up on my ten year anniversary of moving away after high school. Obviously, I was there during summers and on the occasional break when crew practice didn’t get…
Ah! I had a few rugby dresses back in the day and I’m so happy to see that they’re coming back. I had a Lacoste one that I wore all the time in high school. It’s fun to see trends come back around! This dress is from Nordstrom’s new 1901 line. It’s very J. Crew-esque with…
Gosh, guys. This has been one of the best weeks. I had really been feeling burnt out and just kind of down. No one big thing but a bunch of little things that had all added up to an overall feeling of uneasiness. I booked that weekend trip to Ocean House and came back to…
Spring got off to a little bit of a late start this year, but it is now in full bloom, literally. Today’s post is in partnership with ZYRTEC, a brand I love and definitely need in the spring. I recently ventured over to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden for the Sakura Matsuri, aka the Cherry Blossom…
It’s no secret that I love my mom. As I get older, my appreciation and love for her only grow. I feel like my sister and I hit the “mom lottery” and it’s not something I take for granted. Sure, we get on each other’s nerves from time to time, but it’s never anything that…
I’m so excited to be partnering with J. Crew for this post. It’s all about creating your wardrobe for Memorial Day weekend. Memorial Day is one of my favorite weekends of the year because it’s the “official” start of summer. Summer Fridays kick in, the sun is out longer and brighter, and weekend getaways are…
I will never forget the day Maxie scheduled a “meeting” (i.e. a regular coffee date) with me and told me she wanted to start a blog. I have helped a LOT of people over the years get social media accounts and blogs off the ground, but no one comes close to how excited I was…
Hope you guys have something fun planned for Mother’s Day. I’m so happy to be in Florida celebrating with my mom– and my whole family really. I haven’t been home since Thanksgiving and it’s always nice to be down here. I’ve only been “held hostage” in my mom’s car three times. 😂 (Please tell me that…

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
