Last week, I shared a video with my thoughts on some of Sonia Kashuk's bath and beauty products and in a couple of weeks I'll be part of a group chatting LIVE with Sonia during a Google hangout! This will be my second time getting a chance to talk directly to Sonia and I'm eager to know what you ladies think I should ask her? Last ...
First Mother’s Day
May is always such a busy month for us---first comes our anniversary, then Mother's Day, then Harper's birthday and mine a few days later. It's a whirlwind of a month but I love it! On Friday we celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary with dinner at Eddie V's. It was absolutely delicious--- we both had steaks, truffle mac n' cheese and ...
The (Ripped) LBD
This morning after a few days of sporting my "uniform" (slim pants, a dress shirt and blazer) I was in the mood to dress up a little bit. I looked through my closet and pulled out this sheath dress from Zara that I've loved for years. I even wore this one while pregnant because it's so roomy! What I didn't notice was that the bottom of the dress ...
Baby Gap New Arrivals!
Just thought I'd do a quick post to share the Baby Gap items I purchased for Harper during their last 40% off promo! (they're currently running one for 30% off if you didn't get a chance to order last week) The items just arrived in the mail today. All items I purchased are 18-24 months (except for the shoes), so many are from the toddler section ...
Harper Reese- 11 Months Old!
This update is SO late…but with good reason. Poor Harper had hand, foot and mouth disease and it took her a good five days to recover from that and she was so sleepy and low energy we didn't even attempt photos on her actual 11 month birthday. Harper surprised us by taking her first steps just a few days before her 11 month birthday! It was ...
Everyday Luxury with Sonia Kashuk
Based on this week's weather, it seems like Houston is on its way back to normal, which here means HOT! And this warm-weather loving gal couldn't be happier. After a dreary winter with completely bipolar weather, I'm ready for the warmth and pretty blooms that spring brings along --and so is my beauty routine! To amp up my beauty routine ...
Pumping At Work- My Top 10 Tips
At the hospital where I work, we have a blog where employees contribute posts about pregnancy, motherhood, babies, birth, etc. It's run by our internal communications team and women working in all areas of the hospital are able to contribute. Recently I was talking to the director of our lactation program because I had some questions about the ...
A Day for Chambray
I absolutely love chambray shirts. It seems like I'm not alone as nearly every woman in my office has one! It's so easy to mix and match with light, dark and bright colors, you really can't go wrong. Though I ended up swapping out my heels for flats after checking my calendar and seeing that I would be in the office all day, I adore these Steven ...
The Spotted Watercolor Dress
I didn't buy a lot of clothes in 2013. I was pregnant for some of it, on maternity leave for some of it and then uninspired for much of the year. Sure, I bought a few pieces here and there, but nothing like before. While I'm so excited about all of the spring and summer clothes in stores right now, I can't help but love the fact that I'm also ...
A Timeless Dress
I haven't purchased anything at Club Monaco in a few years now (their prices seem to have skyrocketed from what they used to be), but one piece I will always return to is this simple button-front dress (which I also own in white, my favorite of the two). It's so easy to wear, has a nice full skirt and looks great belted too. I purchased this dress ...
