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.

Well fam, we made it. We're finally here! The mudroom is officially done. I looked back at the very first post about transforming this space, and it was one year ago, almost to the day. On the one hand, I feel a little deflated that it took us a year. And on the other hand, […]
I love ordering crab cakes out—they're such a treat. But if I want to make crab cakes at home, they need to cater to our food restrictions. That means they have to be delicious AND have no eggs, dairy, wheat, gluten or grains. Well these knock it out of the park, thanks to some secret […]
August is my unofficial start of autumn — I don't believe in separating seasons, or holidays, for that matter. I prefer to squeeze every ounce of joy I feel from the day, whether that is a sunny beach day (which is how we started the month!) or a cool early fall walk with Cricket and […]
I love fall faux stems. It's funny how it feels a lot more acceptable for stems to be faux in the fall! I guess in the summer you can grow your flowers and cut things from the yard or buy some at the market. In the fall — at least in North Carolina — we’re […]

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