I had a sponsored campaign for J. Crew over on Instagram and I had to share the photos here. I love this outfit. Realistically, I won’t be able to wear it with my growing bump when it actually gets cool enough, but maybe you can! This is like the fall outfit of my dreams. If…
Guys, I truly don’t know why I can’t get Halloween out of my mind. I have to admit that it used to be my least favorite holiday as a kid. Loved the costumes…. hated trick or treating. In my memory, I had ear infections for the first few Halloweens in my memory… and then we…
I can’t believe it’s Friday already? This week flew by in a blur– I barely know which way is up! I’m hoping our days start settling into a routine because I feel so discombobulated. Jack crushed his first couple of days at preschool and we had lots of fun enjoying time at the park together,…
August was a great end to a whirlwind summer. We had family time at the lake, celebrated Jack’s second birthday, and spent lots of time playing outside. As summer winds down, I’m enjoying the return to routine, feeling like I’m back in my groove work-wise, and very excited for fall! What I Bought on Amazon…
I’ll admit it: I need another sweater like I need a hole in my head. Add in the space and maintenance they require, and really I should just consider downsizing my collection. That said, I get a lot of wear out of them and never regret keeping one handy. With cooler days on the horizon,…
This past week was a wild ride! I felt like we were just go, go, go with back to back weddings. We had a rehearsal dinner on Thursday and wedding on Friday in Boston, and then another wedding in NJ on Saturday! It was exhausting, but a lot of fun. And then we rushed back home…
I’ve been having so much more fun with makeup lately. I’ve always stuck to a pretty minimal routine– partly out of laziness and not wanting to spend a ton of time every morning doing makeup and partly because I don’t like the look of wearing too much makeup in general. Minimal makeup just works for…
It’s not boot season yet, but…. we’re getting closer! They’ve been an essential part of my fall wardrobe since at least college. I mean, a fall dress with boots? J’adore. But they also work with casual outfits! And they’re warm! I’m always on the hunt for the best fall boots and this is a pretty solid roundup…
Here’s what I’ve been up to the last couple of weeks according to my camera roll! I decided to give the Teleties claw clip a try and I love it. It holds so much hair. (I’ve broken many a claw clip trying to get all my hair secured!) Plus I love the shape and color….

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 🤪
