Another day, another style challenge! Summer is definitely my most difficult season for dressing. It seems like it should be the easiest! I really feel like I should have this down by now. I mean, I always start off optimistic enough. Every single June, I’m like this is my year to wear cute dresses and…
Before I talk about clothes again, I have to give a big old shout out to my dear husband today. For taking good care of me and the Stevie, as us two ding dongs ruined the holiday weekend by getting sick with a stomach bug. I mean we really messed it up. Paul and I had plans.…
If anything can attest to the fact that summer has arrived, it’s a trip to Disneyland. The skies are blue, the heat is on, and the icy lemonades and Dole Whips are flowing. NOTE TO SELF: Get a dole whip next time you’re there, dummy. Even though I’m at Disney a lot, it’s not very often…
Time, once again, for a wardrobe challenge! I finally made peace with my closet for the Spring, but feelings have been creeping back in. The ugh, I have nothing to wear type of feelings. I’ve been immensely discontent with my closet the last few weeks and I know exactly why. Hint: it’s never about the…
Alright ladies, so this might not be the sexiest Mother’s Day giveaway ever. But as someone who had a really hard time finding natural deodorant that actually worked, I am pretty excited about it! Smelling good certainly can’t hurt the sexy factor. First of all, please tell me you have switched to natural deodorant and…
Well, well, well. Here we are again! I will be celebrating my 6th Mother’s Day, how about you? The husband has learned — just in these six short years of blissful parenthood — that the greatest gift he can give me for Mother’s Day is time away from my child. But if that fails, because life is…
If you missed my last post about the Spring 10×10 Challenge, you can read my whole rant on the love/hate relationship I have with my wardrobe, and see what the challenge is all about right here. Otherwise, the basic idea is that you take 10 items of clothing and make 10 outfits over 10 days. The concept is…
I have felt really challenged by my clothes lately. Almost 2 years ago, I made the decision to veto any and all fast-fashion purchases (which is essentially cheap clothes made quickly to satisfy a place in the market for the most up-to-date, current trends). But not only that, I wanted to cut back on purchases overall,…
Stevie’s renditions of Wheels on the Bus, Itsy Bitsy Spider, and Fancy by Iggy Azalea are really something else. Yes, body. 9pm does seem like a great time for a 45 minute nap — until you actually have to go to bed. I was admiring how long my nails had gotten and within 10 minutes…
It’s been awhile since I’ve had a confessions post! Either funny things have stopped happening to me, or I’ve lost my sense of humor. Or I’m just too busy to remember anything funny. We had to buy a baby gate for the dog. So that he’d stop pooping in the living room in the middle…
