Lost my fav sunnies ($75) a while back, so you can imagine my excitement when they showed up in a purse I haven't used in quite some time! Now I'm never letting them out of my site.
Just when I think I couldn't love the gold swivel barstools ($139 for 2) in the kitchen more, I'm reminded that they're the best -- and you all think so too!
The secret to my nightly skincare routine is using these wristbands ($8) to keep the water from running down my arms. No gatekeeping here!
Just bought this upholstered king bed frame ($329) for my parents! They've only ever had a queen before 🫣. Don't forget to click the extra $40 off coupon.
This nose hair trimmer ($17) might look a little scary & intimidating, but Chris has assured me that it's very effective and easy to use!
I've been wanting a pharmacy floor lamp ($129) for the study and couldn't pass up this one for such a great price. It reminds me of the tabletop lamp we have in the kitchen!
I loved these brown velvet club chairs ($2,699) in the study before, but now even more so, coupled with the new pharmacy lamp!
Just a word of caution that red 40 (gummy lips) is really bad for you and your kids. Especially if you have autoimmune issues. Research and you will see there are very good reasons why it’s banned in Europe.

Chris and I have always said that if we don't feel 100% all-in excited about a project—both of us—then we probably haven't found the solution yet. I think that's been the tale with our primary bathroom renovation as a whole. We feel excited about doing the project, but it's been YEARS in the design phase […]
I do a lot of cooking for food restrictions, but this recipe is none of those things. These dinner rolls are my mom's recipe, and they're one of her signature dishes. She has made them for almost every gathering since I was a kid. The smell of these...it's the smell of every family event in […]

We had that lamp in the 80s! I liked it then (although I don’t think it was chic), & of course love it now.
