ONEI had a great week this week. I don't know if it was the long weekend or if my anxiety has calmed down a bit from the initial back-to-school nervousness, but I'm in a better headspace. I met a friend for lunch at an outdoor patio this week, ran a few errands, got my hair done, etc. Life isn't back to normal or even close to it, but I'm trying to ...
Amazon Style Finds: September
This month's amazon style finds are transitioning us straight into cooler temperatures. I'm still dreaming of 70 degree temps over here in Houston, but many of y'all will soon experience the delight of weather reports out of the 80s and 90s and I'm so happy for you (and also a little jealous!) Let me know what you think of this month's picks! I ...
Fall Home Decor Picks
It might seem a little early, but fall decor tends to sell out from popular retailers, so I'm trying to get my content out earlier this year. I won't be decorating for fall until late September because we're having family photos taken in our home and I'd like to avoid having any seasonal decor in them, but after that, I'll be going full speed ...
Affordable Dresses for Girls
I have felt pretty uninspired by the dress offerings at a lot of popular kids retailers recently. I was browsing on Shein's website and saw they had a kids section and immediately was drawn to so many of the styles. I like that their dresses have girly details like ruffles, flutter sleeves, smocking, etc. I put together this edit of some of my ...

Friday Five
ONEIt has been a heavy week and I can't write this post without first acknowledging all that's going on in the world. A pandemic that continues to rage and has killed more than 600,000 Americans, the devastation and lost lives in Afghanistan, the significant hurricane damage in Louisiana, the fires near Lake Tahoe, flooding in New York and the ...
Transitioning A Summer Dress to Fall
Thank you marshalls.com for sponsoring this post! I've been shopping at marshalls.com since I moved to Houston in 2007 - let's just say it's been one of my favorite shopping destinations for over a decade. I love that I can find high-quality and designer brand items there at amazing price points. Marshalls has so much great fashion brands but ...
Bamboo Dinnerware & Cabbageware Favorites
I own several sets of bamboo dinnerware - both ceramic and melamine. I love how organic it looks while also being easy to "dress up" when paired with other dishes and linens. At the moment, I own these scalloped melamine bamboo plates, these geometric melamine bamboo plates and these ceramic ones, by Juliska (dishwasher, microwave, oven, and ...
Campaign Dressers at Every Price Point
When we lived in a previous home, I did a DIY IKEA hack to make these campaign nightstands for our primary bedroom. I ended up using one in Lincoln's bedroom in our third home and currently have one in Harper's closet for extra storage. I really wanted a taller dresser for Lincoln's new bedroom and found this five drawer campaign chest (sold out ...
Nordstrom Faves & Workwear Loves
I haven't looked at Nordstrom's website since the anniversary sale because I was waiting for new arrivals to get excited about fall. I always find August to be a weird month because it's still so hot here, so realistically I should still be shopping for summer weather but my brain is already headed into fall. I put together this edit with pieces ...
