I have a sponsored Instagram with J. Crew coming out today, but I love the outfit so much that I had to give it a permanent spot on the blog. Our social calendar is starting to fill up and I’m starting to think about holiday party outfits!! Who knew my closet was missing a sequin skirt….
I may be late to the game here, but if you’re like me and haven’t taken your holiday cards yet… here are some coordinating outfit ideas. One is quite matchy-matchy, which may be a little much for some people or just right for others. (I love a good matching moment myself 😉.) I also personally…
J. Crew is having an early Cyber Sale right now. I had to share some favorites that are currently 50% off. Use code SHOPEARLY. I rounded up some of my favorite things that are included. Most of these are what I would consider staples!! There are some fun pieces too– but I think it’s a…
Things are really starting feel festive! I can’t believe Thanksgiving is next week? 2022 has flown by, right? We are going to have a great weekend here and then we head down to my parents’ house in Tampa for Thanksgiving. They’re hosting almost everyone (or maybe even everyone) from my dad’s side of the family. This…
It’s time for another “ten things” post. I stole this idea from my friend Kelly– but it’s basically just an old school blog post where I share the first ten things that come to mind… Ready, set, go! MY OWN ADVICE // I’m finally taking my own advice on work. Over the years I’ve helped a…
Today’s post is sponsored by Faherty– use code RIORDAN20 for 20% off your order for the next 72 hours! Welcome to the coziest blog post! I’ve been familiar with the Faherty brand before– we get the catalog after shopping in the Nantucket store a couple of summers ago. Mike’s friend had been raving about Faherty…
We had a pretty cozy week here (and you’ll probably be able to tell from my outfits!). I’m going to have to step it up for next week. I try not to repeat outfits for the week, but you can see that I apparently have a favorite sweater 😉 LAST WEEK’S WIN: Jack and I went…
The window on tartan is fairly short, and I try to make the most of it since it’s one of my favorite holiday prints. Although I tend to hold off on decorating for the holidays until the end of November, I will wear tartan all month long, ha! Sharing some cute tartan pieces that caught…
Sharing some fun Christmas gifts for guys in your life! They can be notoriously difficult to shop for but most of these products are either things Mike owns/loves or things I’ve gifted in the past. They’ve all been a hit and I feel confident recommending them. Starting with these Peter Millar Button Downs! I can’t…
#ZarbeesPartner @zarbees is helping us get the best night of sleep possible! Our sleep routines got shaken up after Daylight Savings Time ended, so we are doing what we can to get back on track and get back into good sleep hygiene routines. I’m keeping Zarbees Children’s Sleep Gummies with Melatonin on hand and we added Zarbees Calming Bedtime Spray into our nightly routine– with calming natural lavender and chamomile to set the mood for a restful night of sleep. Plus, with no artificial fragrances, parabens, or petroleum I can rest easy, too. Buy now on Amazon! #FromOurHivetoYours
✨ 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.usa
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
