Kevin had his fantasy football draft Saturday, so I planned a fun mommy + daughter day. Though I absolutely adore spending time together as a family, there's something special about a one-on-one day with this sweet girl. Kevin joined us for Little Gym before he made his way down to his friend's house for the draft and then Harper and I headed out ...

Hello and happy Thursday! Megan texted me from Maine to tell me that I absolutely had to try Urban Decay's new Perversion mascara as well as Anastasia's new Dipbrow pomade tout de suite. We tend to like the same kinds of makeup products, so I can't wait to try these! | ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS DIPBROW™ Pomade ...
Wednesdays in White
Thank you for all of your feedback on getting back to the DSLR photos! Kevin has been a champ dealing with taking these every morning while holding Harper on his hip, so if there's anyone to thank for no more mirror photos, it's him! I pretty much compulsively buy white dresses and this J.Crew bow-back dress from a couple of years ago is a ...
Misty Mornings
If the weather forecast and temperature gauge in your car haven't convinced you that it's too hot outside, behold today's photos. I had to deepen the contrast in them in iPhoto because as you can imagine, the entire lens fogged right up in the morning humidity…and I didn't notice until after we took them. Sigh. Getting dressed for the ...
Harper’s One Year Photos!
The morning of our last day in Toronto (just a few hours before we headed to the airport to catch our flight), Adam came over to capture some shots of Harper. I've known Adam for over a decade, he is one of my cousin's closest friends and we spent a lot of time together growing up. I was delighted to learn that Adam was growing his ...
Recent Purchases + Haul Video
After sharing my hair tutorial video recently on my YouTube channel, I got a lot of sweet notes and wonderful feedback about making more of an effort to keep my channel up. I promised to try and film one video per month so I shared some recent purchases today in a "haul video" (I still think that's a bit of a funny term, but it is what it is). You ...
Harper’s Reads: Favorite Books for Toddlers
As a child and teen, I loved to read. Going to the library was one of my most favorite hobbies (serious nerd alert…it was walking distance from our house!) Maybe it was the only child in me---craving fun, imagination and adventure with every turn of the page. I would often read for hours on end and stay up late or wake up early just to finish ...
A (Pop) Of Yellow
Yesterday, Linh from A Beautiful Rawr left a comment on my post saying "I think having to dress up in 100 degree weather must be illegal somewhere." Haha, I think she's onto something! This deep navy J.Crew dress that I purchased on sale right before Harper's first birthday has been a key piece in my summer wardrobe (and will ...
I’d Rather Be in Scrubs…
Dressing for this office isn't always fun. There, I said it. Sometimes, I look at the doctors and nurses in their scrubs and I think to myself "yes." Yes to all of that. Yes to wearing the same, comfy thing everyday and not asking myself when the last time I wore that dress was or having moments where I come to the realization that I've worn the ...
The Lightest Shirt
This blue shirt from Gap is so lightweight, it's about the only thing I could think to wear when I saw today's weather forecast. I know everyone hates when people talk about fall too early, but I'm craving days in the 70's. Dear sun, please calm it down. Unfortunately, this blouse is no longer available. It's kind of perfect because it has a ...
