Karen and I met in fifth grade at our weekly gymnastics class. Though we went to different schools, we soon realized our homes were walking distance from each other and we would often meet at the library (the halfway point) to hang out. Soon, we were inseparable. We had sleepovers all the time, hung out nearly every weekend and shared all of our ...
How To Store Your Statement Earrings
I'm still in awe of all of the DMs I received when I shared my master bedroom closet last weekend on Instagram stories. Forget about the clothing - you all wanted to know about this earring holder! This acrylic earring holder costs just $12.99 here and there are tons of options here as well!I love that it allows you to display them - ...
Work Wear: A White Shirt, Three Ways
I hear you loud and clear: more work wear posts! My work wear has evolved so drastically over the years and especially since becoming a mom. Gone are the days of fussy outfits with silk blouses, pencil skirts and dresses. I love that style, but I've found myself feeling more comfortable and put together when I wear pants (not to mention it's ...
Weekend Shopping
I haven't purchased a lot of clothing recently because I've been waiting for the pretty Spring clothes to finally be released! I even spent this weekend purging my closet and re-organizing in anticipation of warmer temps. I spent a good 90 minutes combing through all of these sites/sections and am only including my absolute favorites and items I ...
Friday Five: Beauty Edition
I realized this week that I haven’t shared a lot of new beauty finds recently – so it’s time to remedy that! I’m sent a ton of PR packages by various cosmetics and beauty/skin cafe brands (which I’m so appreciative for), but relatively few make it onto the blog as favorites. I often use a product for weeks or months before ever mentioning it – I ...
Our New Tempur-Pedic LuxeAdapt Mattress
This post is in partnership with Tempur-Pedic. When I moved to Houston over ten years ago, one of the first things we purchased after moving into our first home is a new mattress. We’ve had that mattress since 2007 and for the last couple of years, we’ve both kept saying it was time for a new one, but never pulled the trigger. Kevin loathed ...
Friday Five
O N E Old Navy is having an amazing sale right now – 40% off for cardholders. I took advantage and ordered myself some new pixie pants in blush, white, chambray dot and yellow with daisies. These are the BEST work pants (see my review here) and I wear them daily. They fit TTS (I wear a 4 regular) and I prefer the full-length ones over the ankle ...
Pelvic Floor Issues & Diastasis Recti + How to Get Help
I have long wanted to share a post about pelvic floor health – especially since it’s an issue most of us deal with after pregnancy and child birth. It’s also a subject few talk about – many women feel embarrassed or don’t know where to go for help/don't realize their symptoms aren't normal. Because I work in healthcare (in a non-patient care ...
Kids & Screen Time: Our Approach
I’ve seen so many of my fellow bloggers address kids and screen time lately and I’ve been asked about it a lot in my Instagram DMs. So, I thought it would be a good time to share my thoughts on the topic! As a preface to this post, I think all families can and should do what works for their children and family life, and this is just our ...
