I wore my new BR bow skirt this week and I think I'm in love. Unfortunately, I was playing on the floor with Harper when I got home from work and when I spread my legs a bit to stand up, the front slit split and now I have to get it fixed---but I absolutely love it and can't wait to wear it again when it's all sewn up (I'd do it myself but I'm not ...

A Girls Night Out with Almay- CC Cream Review
For the last year, BB creams were the beauty-product-du-jour. It seems like every brand came out with one, and ads on TV and in magazines all touted BB creams as THE skin solution.I had never tried a BB cream because I felt that they wouldn't provide enough coverage for my skin, which is breakout prone. I like to use concealer to help hide ...
Our Saturday…
Saturdays have been awesome lately. Harper is sleeping through the night most nights and if she does wake up, usually putting her paci back in is all she needs to go right back to sleep (sometimes, she even grabs it and puts it back in herself!) On Saturdays she has her morning bottle and then we all sleep for another two and a half to three ...

We've got our morning routine pretty sorted out these days---but it doesn't leave much time for outfit photos so this is about the best it's going to get at this point and time...I literally snap these right before I open the door and leave the house, ready to start our journey to daycare and work.

Swimwear That Saves (Our Planet)
When I was pregnant with Harper, I started becoming more aware of eco-friendly, organic and natural products. I even changed all of my cleaning products so I wouldn't be exposed to certain chemicals. That's why when I was approached recently by a brand called ECO SWIM by AQUA GREEN, I was curious to learn more and was immediately ...

An Emerald Dress for the Last Days of Summer
It's not even close to the "last days of summer" here in Houston where the heat and humidity continue to be bountiful. I'm more ready for fall than I ever have been. Alas, mother nature probably won't grant us cooler temps until October, so I'm still wearing some of my favorite breezier summer dresses. This one, from Lulu's, has a beautiful ...
Mommy + Baby in Boden
I heard about the UK-based brand Boden on a style and beauty forum I'm a member of. I checked out the site about a year ago and loved the fresh, classic styles. So when Boden approached me about showcasing a mommy+baby fall look, I was delighted to pick out an outfit for Harper and me. I love that Boden has a baby line too! Don't ...
