The Best Swimsuits & Coverups We Wore in Mexico

Just yesterday, our whole team woke up in sunny Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, then flew back home to North Carolina. We had an amazing trip together, just soaking up the much-needed beach time, but it's good to be home. While we were there, we had a fun little photoshoot featuring the best swimsuits and coverups […]

Best of July

With the end of summer quickly approaching, this month there were two major themes around here. Namely, the backyard finally wrapping up and the upstairs bathroom slowly getting pulled together. Just so we're on the same page - lets get all caught up on the most recent updates this month. Tile on Tile: An Upstairs […]

20 Summer Sandals I Love!

When we lived in Idaho, I could get away with wearing boots through May because, honestly, there was still a chance that it was going to snow at any moment. But here in NC, I swear the sun came out in February and the weather has been so sunny and warm ever since. I was […]

My Favorite One Piece Swimsuits

You may have seen on Instagram that we took our team on a trip last week and had the best time. Along with sandy toes and salty hair, I found myself sporting a couple of bathing suits a day!–a necessity when vacationing in the Caribbean. Between snorkeling, mud-bathing and zip-lining, I managed to snap a few photos […]

10 AMAZING Sunglasses Under $40

To me, sunglasses are not unlike chapstick–you need a pair handy wherever you go! I like to have a pair in my car, Chris's truck, my purse, my other purse... One thing I just bought from Amazon was this sunglasses clip for the visor in my car. So handy to have! I do have a […]

My 8 Favorite Jeans

When I'm getting ready for the day I tend to choose my jeans before choosing the rest of my outfit! I've been collecting jeans for years and I have always loved the ease and durability and classic look of denim (and denim on denim for that matter). And to be honest, I'm more comfortable in […]

My Capsule Workout Wardrobe

You know what motivates me to work out--besides the knowledge I'll be in a better mental state after?–Workout clothes. I know it's silly but I just love pulling on my favorite pair of leggings and immediately feeling a pulse of energy run through me. It's just how I am! I'm also the kind of person […]

Casual Friday: Our Favorite Fall Boots

Fall is on the cusp, and consequently I'm now sporting boots on the regular. (Yes, already! I can't help myself!) In addition to my favorite Chelsea boot styles, I did a bit of shopping around because I wanted some knee-high boots. For me it's the ripped denim with the loose knee-length boots together. I have […]

My Workout Leggings, Ranked from Favorite to least!

I came to the stark realization the other day that I own more workout leggings than any other pants in my closet. I've been collecting them, almost without purge for yeeeaaarsss. And with that realization, came the other very clear epiphany that I wear the same ones over and over--bypassing sometimes entire brands, for my tried […]

Casual Friday: A dining nook, propertee, burgundy fall shoes, home type by enneagram and more!

Last week I mentioned that in some rooms, I'm getting to the layering phase. Where I hang things, and tweak things, and add textiles and elements that make it feel comfortable and home-like. Our dining room REALLY needs this touch and yesterday, it was fun to take a few minutes to shop our house and […]

Casual Friday : A Kitchen hardware lesson, Greta is 10, My Travel Outfit, The Weird Thing I want for our House & More

This kitchen from Neal Beckstedt stopped me in my tracks this week. The warm peachy cabinets mixed with two different countertops (!!!) and the black and brass touches all made me weak in my knees. And then I started looking at the cabinet hardware--so striking! You know what it's not, but kind of looks like? […]

My 5 Closet Rules + Spring Wardrobe Favorites

When we finished our closet renovation last year, and many times since, I get asked, "But are these all of your clothes and shoes?" And I give an enthusiastic YES! There's no hidden dresser or extra clothes stashed anywhere. It's not a little bit of clothes by any means but I'm also not a fashion guru (I […]

The Best Diaper/Lifestyle Bag Ever + Giveaway

We never used a diaper bag before. An actual diaper bag, I guess. I've just never loved the look of them truthfully. My sister sent me a large red purse that I used as a diaper bag when Greta was younger and it worked well. It was simple (which I liked), but things did get […]
