Plaid Scarf

I think my secret weapon to dressing as of recently is to throw a scarf on it! Honestly, I can have on the most unimpressive outfit, but somehow throwing on a cute scarf (plaid is my current go-to) as I run out the door can quickly pull everything together. I’m not saying this turtleneck sweatshirt […]

Winter White

I hope you all have had a great week! We’ve been fighting off the stomach bug around here, but thankfully it’s been quick….hoping it stays that way! This sweater is 40% off at the moment and it is amazingly soft! It also comes in navy which I was tempted by, but the winter white ultimately […]

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Protein Smoothie

As some of you know, my husband works from home. There are pros (he’s there to help me bring in the groceries and I have the freedom to run quick errands while the girls nap) and cons (he’s home for three meals a day and I need to keep the kids at a decent decibel […]

The Blues and Browns

As I was putting this outfit together, I couldn’t help but think how cute it will be when spring rolls around, minus the fur, coat and boots. So basically, a pretty peplum top paired with white denim, which I absolutely love wearing year round. This top is a deal at $18…a far cry from the price […]

Winter Style

Happy Friday! I spent last evening out with my sister registering for her first baby due this March. All I can say is I am SO happy I’m on the purging end of all that! It still shocks me how such a tiny infant needs so much stuff! On the other hand however, it’s super […]

New Year, New Gear

I know it’s cliche and feels like clock-work that following every new year the big push for getting fit and healthy circles back again. But in my opinion, a new year, a new resolution or any excuse to get moving is a positive one! With all the hype this time of year, why not ride […]

Winter Layers

Happy 2017, guys! I hope you had a fun NYE and a relaxing New Year’s Day. Jack and I tuned in to the NYE festivities just as Mariah was performing…anyone else catch that? Oops!! Well, let’s jump into this first post of the year shall we? I grabbed this sweater just after Christmas during all […]

Navy Lace

I don’t know about you guys, but the majority of my week so far has been spent in sweats and flannels and slippers and all things cozy. After all the dressing up over the past few weeks and, oh, the cookies, comfort is all I’m seeking! This is the outfit I wore to our Christmas […]

Post Christmas SALES

Hi, all!! I hope you had a great Christmas! This week is pretty low key around here. We’re spending time with our family and some friends as we approach the new year, and of course trying to catch a few good sales as well! This sweater hasn’t made it to the blog yet, but I’ve […]

Green Anorak

I can hardly believe Christmas weekend has arrived, but it’s here! I wish you all a blessed Christmas and hope that your time spent with friends and family is full of love and laughter and your travels are smooth and uneventful! I don’t have my blog schedule figured out fully for next week, but I’m […]
