“Love not hate.” That’s the hashtag I keep seeing associated with addressing the horrors of Nice, yesterday. That’s what I see every time I see anything addressing any type of terrorist attack, and I always wonder…. what do you mean by that, exactly? Do you mean the terrorist should choose love over hate? Do you mean,

A (Two)Piece of My Mind
I am talking Two Pieces, this morning, which is kind of a big deal for me. Ever since having my last kiddo, wearing bikinis has always been something I wasn’t quiiite comfortable doing, because of stretch marks. Mine weren’t bad – very small/faint – but I still felt like, hmmm those are best under a
Heli Good
I’m fiiiinally getting around to posting photos from our heli tour of the Big Island, today! Two disclaimers, sort of. 1) I brought the wrong lens on our ride, so the shots aren’t amazing, but I hope it gives you a semi-idea as to the magnitude of the stunning beauty of Hawaii? 2) What I
Paint the Town Red
So, for my second, casual night-out with my gal pals last weekend, I tried to redeem myself by showering, and applying mascara. Sooo much easier to achieve after a good, Saturday-mornin’ sleep-in. Friday evenings have me all like: Kept things easy-breezy with some go-to basics: swing top + flare jeans + some red heels (always) +
The Deep South
Come with me to The Deep South, today. Where every living thing is so lush and plump and thriving, the air itself down there feels and tastes like new green. Where the homes are settled, relaxed, and beckoning you to come “set awhile,” drink sweet tea on their porches, and watch your children climb their sturdy,
A Spring in Her Step
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
Oh-veralls!
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
The Investment Piece
Umm, this jacket. This jacket was one of my recent “investment” splurges, because a) It’s gorgeous. b) It’s buttery soft. c) It fits perfect. d) It’s something I can wear year-round. That pretty much sums up my criteria for any type of wardrobe investment piece – the look, the quality, the fit, the longevity. Any
Falling for Overalls
So, the overall trend was something I was a liiiiittle reluctant to try about a year-and-a-half ago. I tried them, but didn’t think it was for me – because I didn’t buy a great-fitting pair that first time. That all changed this past spring, when I discovered the ones I’m wearing below by Madewell. Now
