In an effort to explore my personal style more, I have been trying out new clothing brands. Specifically for dresses. Some of these I’ve already shared before, but I wanted to make it a full blog post because I know more of you are also in the same style journey. There are just so many brands…
These posts are always an accumulation of fun pictures from my Camera Roll over the course of two weeks…. and this week’s installment lined up nicely with our two week vacation on Nantucket. I snapped soooo many pictures that I had a hard time narrowing it down, so I did my best to represent our…
We are back home and diving into our everyday routine. We had a blast on Nantucket and I could have easily stayed another two weeks. Our return to reality was fun though… I came home to a lot of updates on my office space, it’s hot hot hot, and our backyard hydrangeas popped while we…
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is one of the best times to invest in staples and items you’ve been lusting over but don’t want to pay full price. Over the years, I have purchased some of my favorite products from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale that I still wear and love. Although the sale exploded over the…
I know, I know…. Party favors for kids are controversial. Most of them are, quite frankly, junk. That said, I know I can be a little over the top as a mom– the past two years I’ve sent out valentines on Jack’s behalf to his cousins and the kids of our friends. It’s just too…
Back with another week of outfits. I will be brutally honest here and say…. I had all these plans to get dressed up and wear cute things here while on vacation on Nantucket and I really just ended up opting for comfort. It’s been hot, which isn’t out of the ordinary in July, but the…
This has been a very popular question lately, so I wanted to have a specific post dedicated towards what I’ve been dressing Jack in. These are what I consider our summer basics. We, of course, have other pieces here and there, but this largely his uniform. It makes life so much easier when I have…
I’ve been thinking so much about how half the year has already gone by. Without a doubt, this has been the year that has moved the fastest. I remember being in like elementary school and thinking a school year lasted forever and now…. I swear I blink and an entire week goes by and then another…
Just a few cute things that feel Nantucket-y to me! Obviously feeling very inspired by this beautiful, special island. I always love collecting product links and then sitting down to put together a collage. Sometimes it doesn’t come together as beautifully, but most of the time it naturally has the perfect vibe I was going…
✨ 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 🤪
