Hello and happy Thursday! Megan texted me from Maine to tell me that I absolutely had to try Urban Decay's new Perversion mascara as well as Anastasia's new Dipbrow pomade tout de suite. We tend to like the same kinds of makeup products, so I can't wait to try these! | ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS DIPBROW™ Pomade ...

A (Pop) Of Yellow
Yesterday, Linh from A Beautiful Rawr left a comment on my post saying "I think having to dress up in 100 degree weather must be illegal somewhere." Haha, I think she's onto something! This deep navy J.Crew dress that I purchased on sale right before Harper's first birthday has been a key piece in my summer wardrobe (and will ...
I’d Rather Be in Scrubs…
Dressing for this office isn't always fun. There, I said it. Sometimes, I look at the doctors and nurses in their scrubs and I think to myself "yes." Yes to all of that. Yes to wearing the same, comfy thing everyday and not asking myself when the last time I wore that dress was or having moments where I come to the realization that I've worn the ...
Hot Summer Days
A for effort? I've been doing outfit photos in my mirror for so long because it was quick and easy, but my goal is to get back to outdoor photos so they're better quality and shot in better light. We somehow got it together this morning and Kevin threw the DSLR around his neck and held Harper on his hip as he snapped a few shots of my outfit. ...
An Extended Hem
Finding dresses that are an ideal length for the office can be difficult if you are 5'8 or taller. Most retailers are now offering tall sizes online, which is a huge improvement from a few years ago, but it can still be tough to find a dress you love only to realize it hits you mid-thigh. Sometimes when a dress isn't available in a tall version, ...
On Repeat?
Lately, I find myself wearing the same pieces to work over and over. I definitely have my favorite, no-brainer outfits that I always feel fantastic in, so I often repeat them or switch out one element like paring the same top with a different skirt. One of my favorite things about blogging used to be shopping and picking out new looks to style and ...

The [Top] Top
When we were in Toronto, I didn't buy many things for myself. I always enjoy shopping at Yorkdale but I didn't find too much I wanted the day we went. However, I did pick up this gorgeous top from Zara which is quickly becoming my most favorite top of the summer. First of all, the pattern is lovely and secondly the detail on the sleeves is really ...
Green Luncheon Dress
Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending a luncheon hosted by the Blue Bird Circle, a wonderful organization that supports the peidatric neurology clinic at Texas Children's. The luncheon featured Barbara Pierce Bush as a guest speaker. She shared with us the impact she and her fellows are making via her organization, Global Health ...
Pink + Stripes
I was delighted to learn that it would consistently be in the 80's this week so that means bare legs! I was so excited to slip into one of my beloved J.Crew No. 2 Pencil skirts, which I pretty much used to wear daily before I was pregnant. They're just so comfortable and easy to wear. Plus, they go with everything from dress shirts, to blouses, to ...
