Photo https://mainelyjamiephotography.com/ Your girl is married! Tristan and I have been together for 12 years and we finally tied the knot in October!

Planning a wedding from 1,000 miles away was not exactly easy, but so worth it! We started our journey in Portland where we got our marriage license and then headed up to Bar Harbor. Our October fall foliage wedding weekend in Maine was perfect! We did a sunset ceremony rehearsal follo ..read more

Glamping Getaway Near Pittsburgh

There is nothing I enjoy more than packing the car, putting Sammy and Gibson in the trunk and going glamping! When we  got the opportunity to glamp at Airydale Retreat in Mill Creek Pennsylvania, I was beyond excited. If you don’t know what glamping is, it is glamorous camping. I describe glamping as the perfect mix of “roughing it” and comfort. While you can start a fire and star gaze, you also have a bed to sleep in and a bathroom. I highly recommend glamping for anyone who loves the outdoors but may not want to sleep in a tent. Airydale Retreat is the perfect place for couples, f ..read more

Outfits to Wear While Working from Home this Spring

We’ve officially survived one year of working from home in a pandemic. I don’t know about any of you, but I have completely fallen in love with the loungewear trend that grew out of working from home. We’ve grown accustomed to more casual wear because we are conducting business within our own homes. No one will look at you twice at the grocery store if you’re wearing a matching, oversized sweat set during the day! However, we must remain semi-presentable for our colleagues and supervisors when meeting over Zoom. So, the perfect balance between comfort and professionalism created what we now re ..read more

Straight and Skinny Jeans You Will Love This Season

Hello my Darlings! We’ve come a long way from billowing court dresses and corsets, wouldn’t you say? Because I can’t imagine a time when a good pair of jeans wasn’t a part of my capsule wardrobe. These days, we have endless options to choose from: styles, washes, lengths, waists, trimmings… the list goes on. The current argument, however, is straight versus skinny. Which is better? I know some Gen z’s vs. Millennials differ on this, but I am loving both this season! Straight and Skinny jeans both have their own time and place, depending on personal style and occasion. Straight leg cuts can eas ..read more
