I feel like I think this every week, but I can’t believe it’s time for another round up of outfits. Time is flying… LAST WEEK’S WIN: We hosted Mike’s fam for Easter. It was the first holiday we’ve hosted at our house, so I felt like the pressure was on. It was really nice though. We…
If you’ve been on TikTok at least once in the past week or so, you must have stumbled on a video (or two or one hundred) about “Coastal Grandmother” style. It’s everywhere. And I’m here for it. Think Nancy Meyers’ leading lady vibes…. practical but chic outfits in linens and neutral colors, cozy meals with fresh…
We had a pretty great week here and looking forward to a nice weekend. We’re hosting friends tomorrow night and then Mike’s parents on Saturday. And we’re doing Easter at our house. I know “busy” has become a bad word, but in the case, I feel “busy” in the very best possible way. I don’t…
I’m so happy about the nice spring weather we’ve had this week. I’ve been throwing on this quarter-zip on morning walks lately, and it’s such a nice piece to layer with. I also got this cute light blue tennis skirt to pair with the quarter zip, and although I haven’t gotten as much wear out…
I did a Q&A on my Instagram story earlier this week and got a ton of questions regarding motherhood and all things baby. I was trying to find a mix of questions to respond to that weren’t just baby-focused, but at least 95% were. I figured I could do some of the frequently asked questions…
Last week was such a fun one! We saw friends and family. We did a few little adventures (like attending a Cherry Blossom festival nearby) and big adventures (like traveling to Atlanta). It’s been so nice to get out and explore, both as Jack is more aware of what’s going on around him and as…
The long-awaited review of the Cadence travel capsules!!! If you don’t follow me on Instagram, here’s the quick backstory. I have been getting targeted hard for Cadence travel containers all over social media. I can’t scroll through any social media apps without seeing at least one sponsored advertisement for these trendy, sleek travel containers. Did I…
A quick little round up of the past couple of weeks… Olive & June sent a few of their new polishes from the spring collection. Very fun and cute! Elsa and I went up to Newport for a conference two weeks ago. Both of us had a couple of panels/events that we were participating in…
What a week! Honestly it was a rollercoaster for me. I hit almost a breaking point of work stress. I had too many deadlines to squeeze into too short of time. But I’m really proud of what I churned out! And Jack and I flew down to Atlanta uneventfully and met up with my mom for…
#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
