One of the things I love doing is spoiling our kiddos teachers at the beginning and end of the year. We have been blessed with THE most amazing teachers for our kids – we haven’t had a year yet where our kids have had a “bad” teacher – they have all been amazing and brought new things out of our kids throughout the school year. I’m rounding up some ideas for the teachers in your life in case you’re looking … Read More
My Summer Active Wear Capsule

I find that I typically wear the same handful of basics all summer long and some of my favorite basics are getting a little worn out. As I’ve been doing some updating, I wanted to share with YOU all my favorite items! I’m ultra picky about activewear. It has to fit *just* right, wash well, and look great. I want to be comfortable but also look and … Read More

All Time Hall of Fame :: Workout Gear
It wouldn’t take more than a glance or two through my closet to see that I have some very favorite workout gear on rotation again and again. When I say workout gear, I mean clothes I wear both for actually working out, and running around with the kids (which is a workout in and of itself!) I’m (very) picky about my workout gear. So while I do have some pieces that are less expensive, I am never willing to sacrifice … Read More
Postpartum Hair Regrowth
Hollace is nearly eight months old and I’m dealing with the worst part of postpartum in my opinion…. postpartum hair regrowth! Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad it’s growing back!

I shared on Instagram my favorite pairs of jeans heading into fall… not to get ahead of myself but the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has got me thinking about jeans and cooler temps! Pair 1: Levi’s Ribcage Ripped Ankle Jeans I love the fit and look of these. They are more casual with the ripped detailing and the cropped length make them great for the transition into fall. True to size. Pair 2: Universal Thread Vintage Straight Jeans I’ve had these … Read More
Nordstrom Sale Purchases
I don’t tend to go “all out” for Nordstrom’s N Sale, but every year I pick a piece or two that’s a bit higher quality/higher price point to invest in at a great price heading into the fall. I love the N Sale for that reason! This year I picked the items listed below, heavy on the jeans (because I need some for fall that fit well post baby) and a couple sweaters along with a pair of shoes that … Read More
My Clean Skincare Routine
Years ago, I had a goal of developing a “big girl skincare routine.” It seemed silly to me when I said it out loud, but I longed to feel better in my skin and enjoy the products I was using. As I went through a series of miscarriages, I also became increasingly interested in making sure my skincare was clean and free of toxins, hormone disrupting ingredients and more. Over the years of partnering with Beautycounter, I’ve come to love … Read More
High and Low :: Shirt and Jean Shorts
I’ve shared on social that I’ve been looking at ways to make more sustainable choices in my wardrobe. While I know that might mean more upfront investment in pieces designed to last and of higher quality. as I was taking inventory of my favorite pieces in my wardrobe today, they are the items that I’ve invested in and cared for well over time. This button-up I purchased recently from Emerson Fry is definitely one of those investments, but as someone … Read More
