I cannot believe I am TURNING 33 this week! I read somewhere that even as you age, you always feel young on the inside, and I could not agree more. It doesn’t matter how old I get, or how many kids I have, I still just feel like me – the 15-year-old version that loves to be obnoxious to my siblings, eat too much ice…
When I was pregnant with Hudson, I frantically was buying baby clothes just to fill my drawers. I always heard how much babies poop and pee and destroy their clothing, and while I liked some of his clothing, I didnt LOVE all of it, and I was always left with excess and pieces he didn’t even get around to wearing. With Charlie I shopped in…
This post is in no way asking for pitty, but I wanted to share my story before I get into how I tinted my eyebrows at home for a super affordable price. A few months back, I received some messages mentioning that I had no eyebrows. They weren’t necessarily mean messages, but they did make me go look in the mirror and stare at my…
Not only has this past week been incredibly painful, but it has been completely eye opening. George Floyd was killed by a police officer who kept his knee pinned on Geroge’s neck in Minneapolis, and that comes after the murders of Breonna Taylor in her own apartment, and Ahmaud Arbrey while jogging. The racism happening in this country is despicable, and while I have never…
Target is having a huge sale for Memorial Day, so I wanted to share some of my favorites! Some of the pieces on sale are great to use for the entirety of the Summer, like the amazing 25% off patio items (that I will definitely picking up some pieces from!) There’s also so many great deals for pieces to decorate your home. I don’t know…
Here we are at two months postpartum (almost!) and I cannot believe how quickly it flies by. Even with sitting in the house basically every single day, the time has still just flown by, and Charlie is starting to smile, really lift his head and I can SEE how much his head has grown! I forgot how wild and rewarding it is to watch your…
With Mother’s Day just around the corner, and most of our mommas far away in quarantine, I wanted to share some sweet gift ideas for the moms in your life. Whether it be for your own mama, for your friend who recently had a baby, or for your wife or partner, hopefully these can help get your creative juices flowing! Mommy & Me Matching Looks…
Nothing beats brand new Spring product being put on sale, so I was super excited to share with you when I noticed that Forever21 marked dresses and rompers to 30% off! I’ve been picking up a ton of pieces from them for when I can finally wear normal and non-stretchy clothes again, so I wanted to share a few of my favorites! Happy Shopping!! …
HOW IS CHRISTMAS NEXT WEEK?? This season has truly flown by, like quicker than I could have ever imagined, and it’s really just so wild that we’re past the halfway point in December. We’re headed off to Florida after Christmas, like we do every year, and I am already planning some sequin looks for holiday parties and ultimately for New Years Eve. I’ve noticed…
A big thing that I personally think A LOT about that I don’t hear bloggers discuss too much is personal safety. It wasn’t something that really occurred to me when we lived in an apartment building, but once we moved into a house, and local followers started to approach me admitting they totally know which block I live on, it was something that always created…
So Fall isn’t “officially” here, but it basically is to me, because once September 1st hits, and the lows drop into the 60’s I pull out jeans and sweaters! The weather here has been SO nice – today is rainy, but I’m still rocking jeans and a sweater, and the temperatures outside feel perfect! I’m so so happy, it’s my favorite time of the year…
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 It has been a minute since I’ve shared a shopping post, because to be honest I haven’t been shopping that much. I finally have all of my clothes unpacked, and I am feeling excited about some pieces I forgot I even owned from last summer! BUT, I did…
In the past I’ve talked about tips for flying with a toddler and tips for flying with a baby, but I’ve never posted specifically about which toys I am packing for our journey, and I think that the things I’ve chosen to bring on the flight are a HUGE determinator in the success of the flight and how well Hudson behaves. When I wrote my…
1 | 2 | 3 1 – Chicwish: I used to shop here a few years back, and totally forgot about it until someone linked something on instagram that I thought was cute. I really love how frilly all of their tops are, and the attention they place on details in all of the designs. The sweaters for fall are super cozy, and they have a…
As I’ve mentioned before in other posts, while being a blogger has SO MANY plusses, and seems so glamorous on an instagram feed, it has it’s challenges as well. Compared to other industries, this industry is very secretive and hush hush, and I find that a lot of other bloggers out there enjoy not revealing too much of the behind the scenes, because it takes away…
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 I’ve started to notice tie front tops and dresses popping up everywhere for Spring + Summer and I am INTO THE TREND. It’s a nice way to be casual and cozy, but still have an extra something that stands out about your top or sweatshirt. Even on silk…
As a kid, you have all of these dreams. When I journaled in high school, I LITERALLY wrote about how I wanted to have a house filled with 70’s style shag carpeting, polka dotted walls and a retro VW bus out front that I painted myself. These were actual dreams of mine when I was 14. Then of course you grow up and you realize…
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 There weren’t too many new arrivals this week, and it was actually hard for me to find enough things I loved to create a post with! It seems like a lot of the Spring collections have hit stores already, and to be honest I’ve been a bit underwhelmed. I love…
It’s THE MONTH OF RED, and you know I’m over prepared with way too many red sweaters & blouses. This is just the first of many 🙂 But I wanted to share some of my favorites with you if you’re in a time crunch, and looking to find some holiday tops of your own. The red is such a great way to “festive” up a look,…
*This post was sponsored by Uber, but all opinions are my own. So planning a first birthday party felt a lot like planning my wedding. I had some friends who opted out of having one, because babies are not going to remember it anyway, but I felt like it was more of a party for Matt and I to celebrate the fact that we did this…
