If you're like me, iced coffee is a must this time of year. I could honestly drink it year-round, but during the summer it's truly the best treat.
I have 3 recipes that I have been rotating each week. Whether you like to go to Starbucks or make something at home, I have a recipe below that is ideal for iced coffee lovers. ...
Depending on where you live and your situation, you might be heading out this summer, but I think it's safe to say we'll all be spending more time at home than usual. We're so grateful to have our patio and small yard space to be able to enjoy time outside while still safe at home. It's just all about finding ways to make it feel vacation-like...and keeping a very active one-year-old busy.
If you're trying to survive a summer at home, here are some of our essentials. From fun activities for the adults and kids to this extra-large beach towel that we've been loving, I hope this list makes your summer even better. And if you have a little one, I can't recommend this play sink enough - it's George's absolute favorite and buys me at least 30 minutes!
Also, if you're in the market for Swimwear for yourself, I'm sharing several flattering picks + my tips on body confidence in tomorrow's newsletter. You can sign up for the list right here.

If you follow me on Instagram Stories or are in my private Facebook Group (request to join and I'll accept you!), you know I've been pretty open about our F-Factor journey and what Austin and I have done to lose weight and make healthier choices. Our goal this year was to shed a few extra pounds and actually stick with this as a lifestyle. A lot of you have requested "grab and go" snacks that would support a low-carb/high fiber diet, so I wanted to share what we keep on hand. ...
If you're shopping for summer right now, don't miss this month's top 10 post. From this white maxi dress to these denim shorts, you guys loved lots of things perfect for summertime last month. ...
Quick reminder that Father's Day is Sunday, June 21st which is obviously coming up quickly. We will likely lay low and celebrate Austin in our backyard, but I definitely want to grab him something special as well. I'm not sharing exactly what I'm getting him case his eyes wander to this post, though it miiiight be among the items above.
How will you guys be celebrating Father's Day? Any gifts that I didn't think of?

Today I want to highlight a handful of women run Black-owned businesses that create and sell a variety of beautiful, high-quality products. While it's always important to diversify where you shop, it's more crucial now than ever with a disproportionate amount of Black-owned businesses being negatively affected by Covid-19. The most recently available Federal Reserve data shows that black business owners are denied loans at twice the rate of white owners, so they are more likely to have trouble finding capital to survive the pandemic, among endless other unfair statistics. ...

One of my favorite memories over the last year is photographing our home and sharing it piece by piece with all of you (check out our black and white office tour). This house was a major labor of love and all the praise we've received for it has blown me away! Of course I can't take all the credit because Ginger from Urbanology Designs is the true mastermind behind it. I'm excited to keep sharing more details, especially as I add small touches here and there to really make it feel like us. I've tried to document as much as I could with the #AshleyAtHome tag on Insta. ...
