I remember learning about Weezie towel’s robes when Megan first shared hers. The printed robe was a collaboration between Weezie and textile designer India Amory. I immediately went to order one and soon realized the robes had sold out in 24 hours! I considered purchasing one of the white robes, but having seen the success of their first ...
How to Organize Your Pantry in An Hour (Or Less!)
Last weekend, I finally took on the task of cleaning out and organizing our pantry, which admittedly became a catchall after our November move. Out of sight, out of mind, right?

How We Customized Our New Build Home
One of the most exciting parts of a new build is the ability to choose finishes – and our builder this time around was even more flexible than our last, which we are so grateful for.

Friday Five
It has been a LONG time since I published a Friday Five! To be honest, the last few weeks have been a blur.

I still remember the conversation today: my dermatologist told me that retinol was the only ingredient with tons of science backing its ...
Friday Five
O N E One of the questions I’m seeing a lot is whether or not natural deodorants still work in the summer heat and through workouts – the answer is YES (at least for me they do!) Now that I’ve been using Native for two years, I find it works incredibly well – even at the pool, outdoors, etc. It will not stop you from sweating, but it will stop you ...

7 Tools I Can’t Live Without at Home
Keeping a clean and clutter-free home is important to me. Though I don’t always accomplish this goal, I have a lot of tools and strategies that help us stay on top of things (caveat: most of the time). Since Kevin and I both work full time outside of the home, have two children, run this blog and have a slew of other home-related responsibilities, ...
