My bra is showing a little in these photos, and when I was shooting these pictures in the middle of New York I remember saying to my friends Lydia and Alex ‘ Is the bra too much?’ It was only showing a tiny bit but I thought maybe this is too risqué for an outfit […]

Bold prints have been everywhere for a while now. That makes me happy because to know me is to know how much I love beautiful prints and bright colors. I love mixing them, wear them with neutrals or full on like my outfit today. As far as I am concerned bold prints add a lot of personality […]

Luxury denim might sound a little counter intuitive–after all, denim is one of the most down-to-earth, accessible fabrics! Every once in a while, though, a brand comes along that does denim so well, wearing it is an experience, not just an outfit. People ask me all the time what my favorite denim brands are, and […]

This summer was a busy one for our family, water park, zoo, museum, play dates, you name it, we’ve done it. We also traveled quite a bit and created plenty of memories that we will cherish for years to come. In the midst of all the fun, I had to find a way for the boys […]

A few weeks ago, I got to play tourist in my own area with Catherine’s and my fellow blogger babes Rachel of Lovely in LA, and Runa of Glam by Runa! We all headed to LA, and got ready for the day at the gorgeous PaliHouse West Hollywood. Green juices, fresh fruit, avocado toast, some […]

This post was done in collaboration with Simply Be. All statements and opinions are my own! Hello my loves! I’m very much in the spring swing of things, and definitely have vacation on the brain!

I must admit, I love creating these lipstick posts. It’s not because of my lipstick obsession, but because I always find one or two that I have not worn in a while. Today’s post is all about Fall lipstick options that are perfect for dark skin tones.  Whether it’s Fall or not, I tend to gravitate toward darker […]

With temperatures hitting 90 degrees this weekend, I’ve been all about summer getaway inspired looks! That means color, breezy fabrics, and a little skin! What better way to inject a little color, than with a pair of teal jeans and an embroidered clutch, trimmed with multi-color pompoms?I’m ab-solutely into these Democracy “Ab”solution Ankle Skimmers from […]

We are officially just 2 weeks away from the beginning of school. Insert panic mode, trying to figure out everything last minute. As much as I am ready for the kiddos to get back to school, I am going to miss having them around the house. We had an amazing summer, I hope you did too. […]

My beat-the-heat essentials always include shorts and a tank top, but I love throwing on […]

This year Dan and I celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary, and we decided we wanted to celebrate it in style with a romantic weekend away.
