Today's post is something slightly different, but I'm very excited to share this new monthly series with you all. I've been looking for a way to further share my style and what inspires it, so I'd like to introduce the Monthly Mood series. I'll be sharing this series at the beginning of every month to kind of set the tone for what I'm currently loving and shopping for. ...
We all know I have a jewelry problem at this point, right? I'm honestly somewhat minimal in terms of stuff I buy (maybe a shocker for a blogger) but when it comes to beauty products and jewelry, I lose all control. To my credit, though, most of the jewelry that I buy supports small businesses and is under $100. I know it can be tricky to know which budget-friendly jewelry is decent quality, so today I wanted to share 10 pieces that I can vouch for. ...
With all this extra time at home lately, I’ve been spending more time staring inside my fridge wondering what my next snack is going to be. Surely, I am not alone in this. And with that, it also reminded me that my fridge was actually a mess. Austin and I decided now was a perfect time to finally give it a good clean and organizational system. I can't say this was a task I looked forward to, but we are so happy now that it's done. ...
Mother's Day is less than two weeks away and while this holiday might not be the type of celebration that we're used to, it's still a day to celebrate women everywhere. To new mama's, old mama's, women hoping to be a mama, and all the women who act as caregivers, this one is for you. ...
I often get asked about my most-worn lipsticks (and some are still on sale right now with code SPRINGSAVE) and wanted to make an easy spot for you to reference. From matte to gloss, these are my favorite shades for my lips. ...
If you've been a TTD reader for a while, then you know I used to be a Kindergarten and first grade teacher. And with everything going on in the world right now, I've been thinking about my fellow teachers quite a bit, as well as all the kids and parents at home trying to keep some version of their normal school routine going. I've been trying to find small ways to use my experience with kids as a teacher to create some resources for you all, so I hope today's post is helpful as I share a few educational ideas for kids during quarantine. ...
This is a post I've been excited about for weeks and can't wait to share with you guys! Like most people out there, March and April have been a struggle. While I'm beyond grateful for our health, our jobs, and our family, it's a trying time for everyone in the world. Working while caring for George has been comical and quite honestly, I'm just trying to survive one day at a time.
Through it all, I've been leaning on connecting with others, especially other women and mothers who are trying to *balance* everything. With that, I thought it would be fun to share some tips from women I really respect. From women I work with every day to others in the industry who make it look easy, I've asked each woman below to share tips on how they're handling daily life right now.
Whether you're a mother or a woman trying to get through this time, I hope this article makes you feel connected and a little more sane. :) ...
Even though we've spent the past several weeks indoors, I'm dreaming of days when we can dine at our favorite local patio, visit beach towns and enjoy days with our friends and family. Until then, I'm holding on to hope and planning my post-quarantine summer outfits. And yes, that includes bags. ...
One of the things I miss most about normal life, by far, is seeing family and friends. I miss my weekly coffee catch-ups with girlfriends, weekends with family, and grabbing drinks with friends. I even miss work meetings! While this continues, we're making sure to stay connected to loved ones and I honestly think it helps my mindset so much. On the days where I don't have human contact with anyone outside my house (love my boys!), I definitely feel off. ...
I admit, it's been hard to pull myself together when I'm not leaving the house these days. But after searching for more ways to stay motived and on a schedule with George and Austin (more on schedules coming later this week), I actually found that if I "get ready" I am more productive. Have you noticed that too? ...
