We are lucky this weekend to have a few days that won’t be blazing hot. Don’t worry it’ll be back up in the upper 90’s real soon. And also don’t worry, our AC just broke. Eye rolls all the way to heaven. But today, just for today, we enjoyed a beautiful picnic lunch with our…

transitional style
I guess these days the only times you’ll see me get dressed before dinner time is when I skip my morning workout, in an attempt to feel human and somewhat pulled together. I know I talk about self-care a lot and how important it is for me to simply get dressed. But the self-care has…
Buttoned-up
What’s up, what’s up, what’s up! Not much going on here, this weekend I was having major urges to BUY BUY BUY new jeans. So I did order jeans to try from the Madewell Insider’s Sale, but also felt it would be important to see what I already have. I was assuming nothing would fit,…
Sneakers
Dare I say… today seemed kinda like a normal-ish Saturday? We did some cleaning up at home, I dyed some clothing, we had some bomb vegan burgers for lunch, followed by Target shopping (for the first time in 6 months!), and some extra screen time to round out the afternoon. I have to admit, the…
Thrifted
As usual, I’m feeling relieved and exhausted at the end of another homeschool week. Stevie had some real positive moments this week and I think he is handling all of this so much better than I am. Also, after sooo many days of yucky smoky skies, we were happy to see most of the sky…
Just a Tee
This weekend has been… another weekend! Same old, same old, stuck at home. Made even more discouraging by the fact that we can’t really be outside due to smoky skies. So there’s been way too much screen time, and way too many snacks because I just don’t have the mojo to be the constant entertainer.…
A Closet Hero
Today we had a big ophthalmology appointment for Stevie. These visits are now done annually vs. monthly or quarterly when he was a wee one. But I totally forgot how long the appointments can go. This year, his eyes needed to be dilated, and I’m sure you can imagine how that went. He simply didn’t…
Styling Session: Taking 3 Outfits From Summer to Fall
I was invited to participate in a Summer to Fall Styling Session with 3 other IG pals: @iamjoellen / @cutelittleacorn / @thehautehomemaker. I personally can’t really enjoy dressing for Fall with this outrageous weather, but I still love pretending. And hopefully some of the ideas are helpful. You can find my IGTV video here! outfit…
Bathing Suit Top as a Bra
I have reached that point again. Random locations popping up in my browser. Great road trip ideas. Social distancing activities… somewhere other than here. I have to admit, our impending heat wave has a lot to do with my current search engine finds. I don’t even know if we could swing a weekend getaway, but…
Black and Brown Combo
Another day where I didn’t even have time to get dressed until after school around 3pm. I often wonder why I bother, but I have already lost so much of myself to parenthood — and now parenthood during a pandemic — it’s a small thing that helps me feel a teeny tiny bit grounded. If…
