What a WEEK!!! I just need to start things off by telling you just how grateful I am for every single one of you. I don’t think I say it enough, but I mean it from the bottom of my heart. This week has been a true demonstration of how incredible you guys are as…
Personalized pieces are one of my favorite holiday gifts, and I’m happy to see so many retailers making it even easier to add personalization to holiday orders! Although I’ll never get tired of a classic punchy monogram, I’ve gravitated more toward minimalist monogramming over the years. Adding initials or a name is a simple addition…
My holiday collection with ChappyWrap is LIVE!!!! Thank you all so much for the support. I cannot wait to see you with your blankets!! We have five blankets in this collection: TARTAN PLAID // HOLIDAY HOUNDSTOOTH // MERRY BOWS // VINTAGE SKI // CLASSIC GINGHAM
I’ve been dying to share this post, namely because I read what I think (so far) is my favorite book of the year!!! So let’s dive right in. Here’s what I read in October 2022: TOO PERFECT by Allan E. Mallinger & Jeanette De Wyze 4/5 Stars This is alllllll about perfectionism and what happens when…
Spent the last week soaking up the last bit of October…. today starts the mad rush of the holiday season. It’s always fun, but also crazy. We’ve just had the most glorious fall weather this past week, even with a touch of spooky fog! Totally got me in the Halloween spirit. LAST WEEK’S WIN: It…
Here’s what my last two weeks looked like according to my camera roll. I got a late start to decorating for fall, but I had so much fun doing it once I got around to it. I went to multiple places trying to get the perfect pumpkin set up (see below for the final look)….
I’m excited for the holiday season and to kick off my 2022 gift guide series today! I thought it would be fun to start by highlighting the top gifts from 2021 to gift for 2022. I’m always curious about what gifts were most purchased the year prior, and it can be helpful to see what…
Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and I’m looking forward to it more than ever! We’ll be heading to Tampa this year, and I’m so excited since it’s been a few years since I last went home for Thanksgiving. I always enjoy the additional time with family around the holidays, and it feels even more…
We had a fun week over here! Nothing too crazy. (Unless you count the transition to one nap! IYKYK.). One thing I’m trying to do is to walk more. I usually use the weather as an excuse to not walk and it’s a bad habit… but with an active baby and two pups, the weather 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
