Floral Top

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Jack and I celebrated 11 years of marriage this past Saturday. What many of you may not know is that we actually dated for 10 years before we were married! Yes, we were girlfriend and boyfriend at ages 14 and 15…high school sweethearts with no idea what […]

Fall Favorites

Happy Friday guys! Last night I attended Back to School night with Madelyn in tow (Jack was at soccer practice). It was nice to get to chat a bit with the teachers because when I ask Madelyn how Kindergarten is each day she eagerly tells me every detail….. about her teachers outfit, ha! “Oh, Mom, […]

Ruffled Rental

My cousin was married this past weekend on the most gorgeous fall day. The weather was perfect, the ceremony was celebrated outdoors near a natural spring and the reception was every bit as elegant as she is. Not only did we have a great time, but I got to wear this designer dress for a […]

Babydoll Dress

Hey guys, happy Monday! We are jumping into the kids first full week of school this week. The mornings have been starting off quite chilly but are warming up to the 70’s which makes it so difficult to dress them for school! My son continues to insist on shorts, despite the fact that it’s not […]

Sweaters Under $100

There’s a chill in the air and sweater weather is well on it’s way. I ordered this cardigan from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and I’ve found myself throwing it on around the house this past week, it’s an absolute dream! I’ve gathered more favorites that I’ve come across over the past few weeks, any of […]

Asymmetrical Sweater

I hope you guys enjoyed your long weekend! We were in Pittsburgh yesterday at a Pirates baseball game with my family and the weather was absolutely perfect! Not sweater weather in the least, but we all know it’ll be back ;) Despite not being quite ready for fall just yet, I was all too eager […]

Embroidered Jacket

I love fall, but I also love the weather that transitions us from summer into fall. Granted, it never lasts long enough here in PA, but I savor the few weeks that allow for cut-offs to be paired with jackets or sweaters. This lightweight jacket is perfect for the chilly evenings we’ve been having and […]

Sale Alert

  Well, my son took off for third grade and my middle daughter jumped right in to Kindergarten this morning! It’s a strange feeling for sure. As overwhelming as three children can be at one time, it’s so hard to see them go! Poor little Audrey (my two year old) is not going to know […]

Transitional Off the Shoulder

Talk about a great transition piece…this off the shoulder sweater is beautiful, comfortable and lays so well. You could also pull it up over your shoulders to fit more as a cowl neck for more a professional look or simply your own taste! For those that may not love the dusty pink vibe, it also […]

Basics for Date Night

I kept things pretty casual for date night with my husband last night. Basic pieces that I’m guessing most of you could pull out of your closet as well. Sometimes I feel like I need that perfect top or adorable dress to wear, but when it comes down to it, I’m just as happy wearing […]
