Anyone else feel like August flew by? Here we are getting ready for school, George starts next week, and gearing up for the fall season. I love seeing what you all enjoy most each month. It's no surprise this makeup bag make the top 10 (it was by far a best seller). Did you try any of these?
Hope you had a great month! ...
I've always found it hard to do a winged eyeliner. But recently I've been playing around with a few techniques and this is definitely one of the easiest I've tried. I love doing this for date night! ...
It's no surprise that I have a thing for Amazon loungewear. I'll admit that I usually have to order a few items to find one keeper, but I'd say 75% of my loungewear is from Amazon these days. From pajamas to house slides to lounge sets, here are the best that I've found over the years. ...
I realized that I haven't actually ever covered a lot of our kitchen details on the blog so better late than never, right? Today's breakdown is simple: I'm linking our decor and dishes that we use most often. Let me know if there's any other area of the house y'all want to see a breakdown for and I'll work on curating those links. ...
Fall denim is here and y'all, I couldn't be more excited! I was pregnant with Charlie during the spring so even though I was wanting to shop all the spring denim, I was obviously limited to maternity options (find my favorites here). Now that fall is coming soon, I'm over-ordering probably way too many pairs to find what works for my postpartum body. Although I'm in between sizes and definitely not in my pre-baby jeans, I'm accepting it and recently ordered a few new pairs to fit my body as is. ...
I probably sound like a broken record at this point...but I live in oversized sweatshirts. Yes, even in the dead heat of Dallas summers. Between oversized and t-shirts, I have a problem at this point but can you blame me? Comfy, easy-to-throw-on and they go with everything from biker shorts to leggings to denim. ...
It's safe to say that biker shorts are having a moment. In fact, it's been about a year since I started wearing them again and I don't see them going out any time soon. I'm pretty sure we're all thankful something so comfortable is back in, right? I know I am. And depending on your comfort level in them, there's a ton of ways to style, which I'm covering today! ...
I posted a question box about 'work/life balance' a couple of weeks ago on IGS and it got such a huge response that I knew I needed to compile things into a blog post. First up, it seems like most people agree that it's nearly impossible, and also that there's just never going to be a perfect balance - which is fine. I've noticed more this year than ever before, with two boys, a full-time job, family stuff, working on some big projects, and just life, that my balance was suffering, and so was my mental health because of it. ...
This Sunday 8/8 marks the final day of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale so I wanted to pull together what's still in stock. To be honest, there are actually a decent amount of sizes/inventory left in some of my top picks which I'm excited about and isn't always the case. Also, it's good to keep in mind that a lot of returns and size swaps will happen over the next couple weeks (or have already) and that Nordstrom will restock certain items when they can. So if you were eyeing something from my initial try-on haul, keep checking. ...
