style, stories & everything in between
i don't know about you, but i feel like the weeks are flying by (says the girl whose babies aren't earthside yet, ha) ! i can't believe tomorrow is may 1st! if you've been following me on instagram, you know that we've bumped up (no pun intended) the twins' doctors visits to twice a week ...
another week of quarantine down and another week of motivating myself to get dressed in real clothes daily in an attempt to bolster morale. i will say, i did miss a day (i blame an afternoon walk in the summer-like heat that took everything out of me), but for the most part, i am pretty ...
this friday, i'm in love with: madewell's ruffled blouses || i need another ruffled shirt like i need a hole in my head, but i can't help it. i am such a sucker for a feminine detail. madewell's latest batch of new arrivals has plenty of styles to fuel this girly girl's addiction. i'll take this ...
now that we're officially in april (wait, wasn't it just february?!), i feel like our honeymoon is finally coming into view. at t-minus three months (and being the OCD planner that i am), i've begun assessing my wardrobe for eleven glorious days of travel. while i certainly have a plethora of options to start putting ...
happy new year's eve, y'all! can you believe it's already time to say goodbye to another year? in anticipation of its closing, i penned a little message (and recap of) to the year 2015. enjoy! dear 2015, you were a blur. i know that's cliche to say but it's honestly how i feel. somewhere between ringing in your ...
you know, birthdays and i have always had sort of a love/hate relationship. i’ve never been too scared of adding another candle to my cake -age truly is, just a number. rather, each birthday was just another reminder of what i hadn’t accomplished, or what life stages i hadn’t quite reached yet. but this year feels ...
dear 2014, first of all, you look great. that new moisturizer is definitely working. but back to my letter (squirrel!). for someone who is seemingly never silenced, i find myself at a loss for words when attempting to express just how much your 365 days have completely changed my life for the better. i mean, you kicked-off with a ...
this past weekend i spent three days with my aunt P (or AP as we refer to her) at her beach house in ventura. want to hear something crazy? of course you do. this trip had actually been in the works since late march but due to the two of our busy schedules, the earliest date ...
because i have a blog i'm like contractually obligated to write "a year in review" post aren't i? drats, i thought so. i can't just say "ditto" how this gal (that last paragraph really got me) and this guy (his references to friday night lights just always make me giddy) encapsulated 2012? no? drats, again. okay, well, since you've left me no choice. ...
