Habits are hard to break... why not make them fabulous?
…because wardrobe variety is important at any age. When I was preparing for Leo’s arrival, I wish I had purchased more clothes in the 12+ months category. When you’re expecting, you’re often gifted with heaps of onesies in newborn sizes. While they are mighty cute, mothers often find themselves with countless unworn garments ranging in the 0-to-3 month size. (I encourage…
Bouncing into transitional-wear with this green jacket and its fluffy pink details. I couldn’t be more ecstatic that the month of March is well on its way. I’m grateful to live in a city where I witness all four seasons in their true form. But I can’t lie: the cold has been really getting to me as of late. Everybody…
It’s all in the details. Here are a few of my very own party pointers. These last few years, I have had wonderful opportunities to throw ultra-fun (and larger) parties. I have always been one for hosting: before Joe and I got married, we would invite a handful of our friends over for weekly dinner parties. We’d plan out menus,…
Going on vacation isn’t always easy on the wallet. Here are three easy ways to save money for your next getaway (so pack your bags!). When I first introduced Josh, my expert travel consultant, he talked about the importance of packing your carry-on luggage. Today, he’s here to talk about setting straightforward goals to be financially ready for your next trip. Picking up…
Adding that hygge touch to our home décor, our book selections, and our beverages – more specifically: homemade hot chocolate. You may already know, but I stepped into 2018 with a clear-cut reading goal. I dove into the new year with the ultimate hygge book (one of the best, I heard). Without a doubt, I have been so inspired (and…
When it comes to easy prep and easy eating, chia seed pudding wins the prize. I recently posted an image on Instagram of my overnight chia seed pudding. I didn’t realize how many people would double-tap and ‘heart it’ (thanks for the support, y’all!) so I decided to go ahead and share how I made it. My nutritionist had suggested…
Who says Valentine’s Day is just for those who are coupled off? Come on now: spoil yourself. I was always one who loved V-Day… single or not. I remember one year, my best friend and I went all out for our February 14th celebrations. Our evening was complete with gifts, dinner, and of course, a clichéd movie. This year, I wanted to…
In the jungle, the mighty jungle… the lion eats lots of cake. We recently celebrated Leo’s first birthday and well, I kind of went all out for his sweet table. My sweet tooth is out of this world, so I figured: why not treat our guests to some of the snacks that I love? One quick trip to Party Expert…
This recipe goes out to my big sis – for forever inspiring me to make the best meringue cookies (ever). You know how certain foods, smells, and songs take you back to a certain time? For me, meringue cookies are reminiscent of some of my best memories with my older sister. We’re nine years apart but now that we’ve reached…
I present to you: a very magical smash cake. Leo’s first year was definitely an adventure. As a family, we went through so much – we built memories, learned about each other, and created a bond like no other. I couldn’t help but celebrate with a smash cake photo session (and a birthday bash to go along). From day one…
