The First Snow

The first snow ALWAYS makes me pretty giddy – in fact, every snow thereafter makes me giddy too. I will never forget my first real winter living here. I worked at a supply house, and I came into work screaming SNOOWWWWW and all of the seasoned NY veterans were rolling their eyes at me. I made snow angels, and went the extra mile to realllly…

Sorel Boots From Day To Night (At Phoenicia Diner!)

*This post is sponsored by Zappos, but all opinions are my own! This past week we headed to Woodstock & Phoenicia to unwind a bit, shoot some upcoming campaigns and peep some leaves. It is always my absolute favorite roadtrip of the year, and it’s one I always think back to until the next year comes around. I have to admit, it was harder with…

SNOW-VERALLS

We woke up to this short-lived but magical snow, and I had to capture it, of course! I’ve been a bit quiet on the blog front, because we’ve had some visitors (our best friends from college) here meeting Hudson, and then my in-laws and my dad came this weekend! Aside from that, I’ve felt a little bit creatively stunted in the fashion department. I’m a…

Cozy Winter Outfit

Not going to lie, mom life has me in jeans and tees most days! You never know when you’re going to have to bend over to grab something, or squat on a floor to change your baby in a bathroom that doesn’t have a changing table (you feel me moms?!) I’ve actually been selling and donating a ton of things, and trying to have a…

Do “Magic Pocket” Jeans Work? + New Hudson Pics!

So Madewell has these new-ish jeans they came out with, the 10″ high-rise skinny, which they claim have “magic pockets.” Basically, the front of the jean has an extra layer of fabric so you don’t get that pooch look after a big meal. The question is does it work, and I am happy to say that it does! The only issue I’ll call out is the difference…

Sezane does it again! I am wearing them head-to-toe, minus the vintage boots that are the perfect shade of brown!

Sezane Styled

I love this coat so very much, that I even wear it on days when I should probably have a heavier coat on, but I just don’t want to take it off. ever. Don’t you guys have clothing like that? You put it on in the store, while still shopping, and you just wear it every other day for the rest of the season without…

Snow Day Look

It doesn’t seem like it’s going to be a white Christmas, but luckily we did get to see some snow before we leave for Miami for a month! It was glorious, and we snapped these on the short walk into the diner (don’t worry, I didn’t freeze because I was not outside for too long!) By the way, yes we are heading to Miami right…

Why I love and hate social media

I have to admit, when I created this blog 6 years ago, I didn’t quite know what I was getting myself into (or that marketing would blossom into my career). It’s brought me SO many incredible opportunities that I didn’t even think I ever deserved (and still don’t think I deserve), and I am forever grateful for that. But, it comes with a trade-off. It…

Like-new

Spring is (basically) here, and we’ve been outside soaking in the gorgeous warm[er] weather. Every time the seasons change, I always like to add a few “new” staples to freshen up my closet, but it’s definitely not the most affordable hobby a gal can have. I was so excited to find thredUP this season. They sell women’s and kids secondhand clothes from brands like Madewell…
