Effortless tops styled with jeans have been my go-to outfit most days this spring. I love a cute top that elevates jeans and makes me feel put together but still comfortable. This Doen top was a best seller for my IG last month, and I get questions about it every time I wear it! I first fell in love with it last summer and was so happy they brought it back this season. The breezy cut, gathered scope neckline, and delicate puff sleeves give it an effortless touch, and the subtle gingham print is gorgeous. If you’re curious about sizing, I would say it fits true to size, but ..read more

I actually couldn’t believe it was time for this post again… last week flew by! LAST WEEK’S WIN: The biggest win was probably that we had a few great nights of sleep! With an 11 week old and a toddler and a dog, this felt like a truly miraculous event. Everyone slept through the night I still feel exhausted, but it’s just regular mom tired, not mom with a newborn delirious tired. That’s a WIN. THIS WEEK’S GOAL: I’m excited for a good week at home. I want to turn my closet over, which is normally a day I really enjoy… this year? Not looking forward to it. But I’m trying to be optimist ..read more

Another post with my outfits from the past week! LAST WEEK’S WIN: Our whole trip to Tampa last week was a win start to finish. We got lucky with two more super easy flights And then we just had so much fun while down there. Lots of fun in the sun! It was absolutely exhausting, in the best way possible. Rory was totally content to just hang out and chill and it was Jack who had the time of his life… whew! We packed in so many fun activities. THIS WEEK’S GOAL: I have a big shoot at our house that I’m excited about and I really want it to go well! It’s much trickier to execute these sorts of ..read more

Shoes are usually one of the first things I switch out in my closet when the seasons change. I got an unintentional head start this year when none of my shoes fit after giving birth to Rory in February, so I took it as an opportunity for a little refresh!

I know this is not a “timely” post given that Masters has already come and gone. But I cannot get this one photo from the Masters’ Instagram out of my head! I am obsessed with these outfits and think they’d be great inspiration for summer and beyond.

I have been on a big shirtdress kick lately! I truly can’t think of a more versatile silhouette. It’s something that works for my body in my postpartum era and is also breastfeeding friendly. I’m all about easy to throw on dresses, and the best part of a shirtdress is that it looks like you’re pulled together but with minimal effort!

Who here remembers my college graduation campaign with Kate Spade? It feels like a lifetime ago, and in a way, it was! I’d still wear that dress today though. I can hardly think of anything more classic to wear than a little white dress, and this time of year, there seems to be endless options for graduation and wedding season. I ended up getting a little carried away with this roundup of cute white dresses…. Make sure to scroll down for a lot more of them…. CUTE WHITE DRESSES Belted Bandeau Midi ($40!) // Darts and pleats and a belt, oh my! I’m impressed with the details for such an affo ..read more

Had such a good week with the boys– especially this weekend. Getting out with both boys by myself was a major goal of mine and I have to say, I’m so glad I was on top of this fear from the beginning. I’m sitting down now to type this and realizing that I don’t even think twice about getting out and about with both. Mike was out of town for the weekend so the boys and I had ourselves a time! We went out to breakfast, played at the park, went to a train exhibit at a local museum. On Sunday, I took them to the gym with me (Rory’s first time!) so I could get a little workout– and quiet time for my ..read more

I realized I never shared these photos on here and it ended up being the perfect timing to post them, because there’s a relevant story behind them. One of the best parts about being a mom is getting to create all the fun magic for my kids. I love it. But…. I also think it’s gone a little too far. I hate to bring the energy of ~social media ruined it~ however i do think that’s the case here. The bar for “childhood magic” just keeps going higher and higher. You can’t just take your kids on a vacation, if you want real magic you need to pack a suitcase for them, wake them up and tell th ..read more

Is it just me or has J.Crew Factory been killing it recently? They’ve had a ton of super inexpensive winners like this scalloped active skort and so many more I linked below. It inspired me to look through a few of my other go-to affordable clothing brands too, leading to this pretty sizable roundup of affordable fashion under $50. Just in time for a spring and summer wardrobe refresh! Affordable Fashion Under $50 Striped Tank // including a blue and white stripe and a pretty green apple-looking color! If this version is too cropped for you, there’s a very similar one from a different retailer ..read more
