There are several recent trends that I'm grateful for: biker shorts, oversized shirts, loungewear, and when it comes to shoes, athletic sneakers. I know the dad sneakers are a healthy debate but I think we can all agree that you can't go wrong with a good pair of neutral sneakers. Especially when they're acceptable to wear with just about anything these days if styled thoughtfully. ...

I’ve Tried All the Skincare Tools and These are the 5 I Recommend
As I've gotten further into my 30s, my obsession with beauty has taken a hard turn into all things skincare. OK so I'm still obsessed with makeup and hair, but I will say I spend more time and money on my skincare these days. I'd much rather get my skin right and then need to wear less makeup to feel confident. Plus, since having George, let's just say the time I can dedicate to makeup routines has decreased significantly. ...
5 Women On Effective Ways to Avoid the Comparison Game
Today I'm honored to be back with another '5 Women On' topic. You might remember that I asked a handful of inspiring women to share how they're balancing motherhood + Quarantine back in April (which is still just as relevant). The article got a great response and I truly enjoyed learning from the other mothers in the article, and it sounds like you did, too. With that, I wanted to keep this going. ...
FYI: Your Favorite Designer Brands are on Major Sale Right Now
If you’ve followed me for a while, you probably know I love to find a good deal on designer accessories. I often buy pre-loved or take advantage of designer sales like the Nordstrom Designer Clearance Sale when I'm looking to add to my collection. ...
3 Outfits You’d Never Guess Are From Amazon
When anyone asks me where to find a pair of cheap (but cute) sunglasses or an oversized t-shirt, my first answer is always Amazon. You really can't beat the shipping speed. Which answers why we usually have a package or two each week at our doorstep. I mean, with a baby and the fact that I hardly leave the house, it's easy for those Prime packages to add up. ...

5 Summer Basics Under $50
I think we can all agree it feels good to actually get ready these days. Even if it is just to pick up coffee or groceries. And since I'm not wanting to invest in a big summer wardrobe at the moment, these under $50 basics have been ideal. ...
Here’s How to Entertain a One-Year-Old
If you read his 1-Year Update, you know that George is now 14 months and officially a walker. He's changed so much over the last few months and let's just say keeping him entertained is harder than when he was a baby. He definitely likes to be on the move and switching things up constantly. And now that we're all at home and trying to work while entertaining him, I've tried just about every activity suggested to keep him entertained. If you're a mama to a child around George's age, I thought it would be helpful to compile what's worked best for us. ...
How I Batch Tasks in Different Areas of My Life
It's been a while since I shared my thoughts on batching tasks and I realized it's not something I've talked about enough - at least in terms of how much I value it. First up, if you aren't familiar with what time batching is, it's essentially grouping similar tasks together. From answering emails for an hour straight to running all errands while I'm already out of the house to shooting a lot of content at once (while I'm in full makeup and hair), I batch non-stop. It's something that became even more important once I had limited time as mom and then even more important once Quarantine went into play and we didn't have childcare. ...
