By now you probably know that I love trying out new recipes. I have found some great recipes from Real Simple over the past few years and with fall upon us, I decided to try their apple snack cake. I’m having a get together this evening and thought it would be a great addition to […]
Welcome to week 2 of making color work for you (here’s week 1 if you missed it). This week we’re going to start the process by determining whether you are a warm (Spring, Autumn) or cool (Summer, Winter) season. In general, warm palettes should have you envisioning warm desert like areas, ie brown sand, burnt oranges, […]
This season I am very much looking forward to wearing my boots, booties and suede pumps, but during the week you are likely to find me in a more casual/comfortable option. I’m usually running here and there (not fun in pumps), taking my shoes off and on (not fun in boots), and trekking many miles […]
One of may favorite parts of fall? Sweaters. I love how warm and comfortable they are in the crisp, cool air. The time we have prior to needing additional outerwear is the best. In general, dressing for weekend, fall days is so easy when you can throw on a broken in pair of jeans, a […]
It’s Friday and our household has made it through our first week of fall. Jack is back in preschool and is overjoyed to be staying for ‘lunch bunch’ this year. This of course means that I get to pack his lunch daily, but he thinks it’s the coolest thing and has thus far been helping […]

Personal style is a very important part of my life. The way in which one dresses speaks volumes about them as a person. Regardless of how much thought one puts into their outfits, they’re making a statement to everyone they encounter, including themselves. I love the show What Not to Wear. In this TLC reality show […]
In addition to missing all of our friends from NY/NJ, I most certainly miss the shopping! I’m adjusting to the world of online shopping, but it was always nice being able to pop into any store to browse and try on on any given day. Thankfully many stores now often or always offer free shipping […]
It’s Monday and my families’ first official week of fall. After playing hooky last week while we were at the shore, my 4yo starts his second year of preschool today and subsequently gets us back on a schedule. Even though our vacation is behind us, I now have this dress as a little memento. I […]
This is one Friday I am sad to see arrive as our week of fun at the shore comes to an end. Along with our friends and their two children, we have had an amazing week in Stone Harbor, NJ enjoying the town, the weather and the memories we’ve made. As I mentioned on Monday, […]
