Loving Lately: Pink

Or should I say, Loving Always?  There are a handful of colors I am drawn to wear….grays, blues and greens also top that list, but pink is always included, regardless the season. Here’s some eye candy for your Friday. I’ve included some items I have my eye on for the girls as well. The headband is […]

Merry Little…

Alright guys, I’m not one to rush the seasons, although I know it looks as though I am! I’ll be honest, my husband has already broken out the Christmas music as we prepare dinner and we’ve all been enjoying it! I know a part of this is because we are actually in a home, our […]

Bows + Polka Dots

I’m not one to shy away from feminine details. In fact, I tend to run straight towards them. Polka dots, topped off with a big old bow? Sign me up! It’s details like these that make an outfit effortless to put together. It’s basically a sweatshirt and jeans (hello comfort!) but it makes a big […]

Instagram Roundup

Last night was trick-or-trick in our area and once we got our sugar filled kids down to bed, it left little time for blog brainstorming. So with that, I figured I’d share a little of what’s been going on over on my Instagram feed for those of you that may not have seen. Here are […]

Creamy Grilled Chicken Piccata

Chicken Piccata is one of my favorite meals. This particular recipe is one that I came across a few months ago and have made a handful of times since then. Marinades can make all the difference and I pat myself on the back every time I remember to do it the night before. I didn’t […]

Sleeveless Sweater: Take #2

Sleeveless sweaters are quite popular this season. Likely because layering is fun (right?!) and this piece is perfect for that very reason. I first showed you how I styled this one here by layering over top of it with my denim jacket. Today I switched things up to show you the versatility of it by layering […]

Indoor S’mores

We all know Halloween is synonymous with treats….lots and lots of treats. Here’s a fun one you could use to mix things up a little bit for your friends/family that may be tiring of mini-candy bars. I was put in charge of preparing a couple of versions of ‘indoor s’mores’ for a fundraising event at […]

JCrew Fall Fav’s

Well I had planned an altogether different post for you revolving around a a favorite dish at our place, but then I sat down and got sucked into JCrew’s new arrivals yesterday. So that yummy dish will have to wait ;) There are so many new things to love, I wish you luck trying to […]

Fall Layers

Ok, it’s getting cold. Like rain, sleet, snow cold here in PA. Luckily there are SO many great sweaters and layering pieces out this season that you should be more than covered. The majority of this outfit came from LOFT and although the sweater vest does steal the show, I have to give these leggings […]

Life Lately

I haven’t taken the time to update you all on life around here for a while now, so I figured I’d take a minute to do so. Fall is in full swing and I’m finding myself keeping busy with the kid’s schedules (sports, dance class, birthday parties…. kids have quite the social life, don’t they? […]
