Fashion Influencers or Mean Girls?
Getting on my fashion soap box for a minute, today. The topic? Why I strongly believe the terms “what’s in/what’s out” and fashion “do’s/dont’s” should be banished from all fashion vocabulary and rhetoric. These terms are constantly used in fashion mags, and fashion-devoted websites, and have irked me for years, so I’d just like to express, today,
Almost-Summer Brights
I wore this look for Cinco de Mayo a couple of weeks ago, but I’m always game for color! Bright, citrusy orange is my bestie these days, but I’ve also been gravitating to sea-breezy mints and turquoises, lately. I think the beach is calling me….? 😉 And how cute is this mint green, canteen crossbody
Motherhood: The Secret to "Having it All"
My heart always does this massive accordion exercise whenever I look – really look – at, or think of my children. It swells so big, I can physically feel it pushing – testing that confinement of flesh-and-bone – in pure love, joy, and gratefulness that simply knows no bounds (comes with the mama territory!), and then it

Petrified Forest + Grand Canyon Trip
I cannot stress enough how much fun we had traveling from Texas, back home to Oregon, last week. My husband and I wanted some National Parks to dictate our route home, and I’m so very grateful we took the extra time to make that happen. It’s breathtaking, our country!! I find it’s impossible not to feel in
Pretty with a Purpose: Paisley + Sparrow

My Own Beat
Navigation in this city can be tricky. Do you know that I’ve actually used my compass app on my phone to get around? MY COMPASS. I have pulled a freaking Lewis and Clark and navigated myself using the moon’s gravitational pull. So many times I’ve thought I was headed South when I was actually headed North,
