Whew! It’s been a crazy few weeks up in here, with no signs of slowing for at least another bit. Nonetheless, I am feeling super charged (with the aid of coffee, of course). Make no mistake, I’m pretty exhausted, but the gorgeous, spring weather has me all hoppity. There’s just something about bright, warm sunshine, clear, blue
Gooood morning! I had THE best time last night at Anthropologie’s pre-opening party for their store in Portland! I met so many incredible, and super talented people – including a woman that was on the team that created the dress I wore to the event. She took a snap of me to send to the designer
As a treat, we took our kiddos to see Zootopia yesterday before dinner. It was so cute!! What wasn’t so cute, was an older lady’s attitude, loudly pronounced, right next to us. She made it passive-aggressively clear to us, via her husband, that she was very unhappy we decided to sit in her row, and
Overalls are not only still around, but they’re also turning out to be a huge trend for spring. Just to clarify…. I’m not big on “staying on trend;” I find that whole idea to be pretty superficial and inauthentic, because personal style should be YOU – not trends mounted on top of each other. That

Makes no sense, but fashion bear don’t care! I already have a few micros I wear on pretty heavy rotation, but just added a new, black
I follow J.Crew’s style motto of “leave something just a little bit undone” to the letter, most days – mostly by accident (I’m a mom of 4 young things! Something is always undone!). Like an un-ironed, travel-rumpled shirt? Nailed it. Honestly though, I love my clothes to feel, and be, lived in – makes me
So far, spring for us has been full of all kinds of surprises. First, we recently made a temporary move to Texas for my husband’s work with barely a week’s notice, and had a blast making a fun, adventurous road trip out of it for our littles (and us!). Next, I wasn’t really expecting to…
Easter is upon us and some may even argue the same thing for spring!* The change of season, promise of renewed life, and even a warm, albeit brief, breeze is all the motivation us shopaholics need to pick up some refresher pieces for our closets. It’s a holiday weekend so that may mean several or
Ready your ankles because there’s about ta be a whole lotta room in the region below your calf and above your foot. That’s right, wide-leg, flared, and trouser jeans are staking a claim for legitimacy this season. The ol’ skinny jean + heel look is a trusty standby but now the fashion gods are asking
Last week, I mused about winterizing a very un-warmthed wardrobe into one that can handle nor’easters and blizzards with ease. This week, I’ll share what I’ve come up with. As I’ve struggled thought sub-zero dressing, I’ve turned frequently to whowhatwear’s 30 Day Winter Challenge! It’s had me doing all sorts of things like belting chunky
