With Valentine’s Day less than a month away, I decided to do a little preparation…for you and I. To be honest, I haven’t a clue what our plans will be at the moment. Over the years we have had dates that run the gamut from formal events (funniest memory: Jack once took me on a […]
Sweater coats have certainly taken a front seat in my closet this year. I don’t know exactly what it is that draws me to them. The ease of quickly pulling an outfit together by throwing one on over a few basics? The comfort of what feels like wrapping yourself in a blanket? Yet the chicness […]
Chili is nothing new around here, but that being said, we’ve never quite found or created that one perfect pot of chili that we want to turn to time and time again. Well, that is until now. This recipe isn’t reinventing the wheel in any way, but it’s the perfect amount of vegetables, spices and heartiness […]
With the holiday’s now behind us and winter setting in, does anyone else find they want to be bundled in cozy layers 24/7, or is it just me? My entire family is one that enjoy’s their ‘comfy clothes’. My husband works from home and is in sweatpants 95% of the time and my son runs […]
January through March are the months where winter really settles in and I often find myself in a constant state of being cold. A few years ago I was all over the super puffy down coats. Especially during the years that I worked and commuted into NYC, I was bundled and warm and ready for […]
When it comes to higher end brands, Kate Spade has to be one of my favorites. Their overly feminine details, bold colors and patterns bring a huge smile to my face. Although most pieces tend to be investment items, mine have all held true as some of my favorites years on end. When my mom, grandma […]
I love my children dearly, but I don’t think there’s anything that can wreck havoc on a home’s organization more than kids! Young children especially. No sooner do you get one room under control only to turn around and set your eyes on the next tornado that swept right past you. If you were expecting […]
I love a great fair isle pattern. Even more so when it’s in bright, beautiful colors. In true JCrew style, they created dozens of sweaters this season that I would love to get my hands on. See other fair isle examples here and here. The sun seems to have tucked itself away lately, so it’s […]
This post has yet to be written and I already love it. What was potentially going to be a lounging around the home outfit post (in large part due to the non-stop rain) has transformed into a reflection period for me. I’ll still give you the details at the end because these fleece leggings and […]
My family tells me I’m too difficult to buy for. I don’t get it ;) Over the years my husband has learned that it’s much easier to stalk my Pinterest board or ask me for a wish list that he can choose gifts from. Lucky for me, he selected this vest as a birthday present […]
