OTK Boots: Under $150

Over the knee boots have come a long way. Years ago it seemed almost promiscuous to wear them…think Pretty Woman here ;) Now we wear them around with skinny jeans and over-sized sweaters which is much more up my alley! As they started to gain more momentum a few years ago, it seemed impossible to […]

Boho Floral

We spent this past weekend in NY along the Hudson with my husband’s extended family for a long overdue reunion. There were six kids, most of whom had never met one another and they had a better time than we ever could have imagined! The house we stayed in was gigantic (it held 7 families […]

Rainy Day

Happy Friday, friends! We are off and on our way to NY for my husband’s family reunion this weekend. I’m excited to see all of the children together because it’s been a few years since everyone has been together. A few things are for sure with this crowd…it will be loud (very loud), there will […]

Insta Lately

I may have started out the week by wishing people a great weekend when it was only Monday, HA, but the week really is flying by! I have my hands on a few design projects at the moment and they’ve been consuming my time, in a great way though. I do promise to start sharing […]

Eyelet Top

I hope you all had a great weekend! My kids passed around a cold these past few weeks and this was a great weekend for them to rest up and re-coop. Madelyn, my 5 yo, in particular required a little catching up…she took a nap on Saturday that lasted nearly 4 hours! But she wasn’t […]

Act Fast Sales

Happy Friday! I had an outfit post that I was planning on sharing today, but then a bunch of sales crept up on me! You know my love for a good sale and so I felt obligated to share them (and my top picks) with you guys today. Not a bad way to jump into […]

Bootie Roundup

Forget the weather! Regardless of whether you are experiencing 80 or 60 degree days, it is bootie season! I love sneakers, I love mules, I love knee-high boots, but my booties end up being worn the bulk of every year. They are cute, comfortable, functional and pair well with any number of outfits. From skirts […]

Floral Midi

I hope you all had a great weekend! Mine started with a brunch/Noonday party that I hosted on Saturday and ended with a birthday dinner for my dad last night. And now I’m ready to dive into Monday! I have quite an affinity for floral dresses, well floral anything really, but midi dresses are one […]

Dressing Room Diaries: LOFT Sale

Happy Friday, ladies! LOFT has a 40% off sale going on, so I figured sharing some of my favorites would be a great way to jump into the weekend, yes? I didn’t have much rhyme or reason to what I was grabbing to take into the dressing room with me, but by the end of […]

How To: Faux Floral Wreath

Guys! I made a wreath! And for some reason I feel the need to shout that out :) I love wreaths. My front door has held one during every season since the day we moved into our home two years ago. The problem is, I have a difficult time finding wreaths that I love. And […]
