There are dresses for different occasions. I wear one to church. I wear one to a nice dinner. But I always feel like I'm willing to spend the least on a nice dress. I'd rather spend it on a good pair of jeans because I'll wear them all the time. Or shoes. But I think […]
It's warming up here in North Carolina, and I'm already pining after some new sandals to pair with my jeans and — hopefully soon — my favorite swimsuits. Anine Bing Lizzie Slides For me, comfort is key. My feet hurt without shoes, so I love wearing sandals around the house. A comfy pair of slides […]

I love a good pattern and color for swimwear, but if I'm going to have only one piece in my collection, it's going to be a black swimsuit. It's universally flattering. It commands attention. You can dress it up and dress it down. A black swimsuit is a classic for a reason! Hunza G Black […]

We recently painted the trim and hallway doors the most dramatic shade of red, and I find myself making excuses to pass through this part of our house. It's so rich and romantic and glossy and inspiring. It's like the hallway is wearing lipstick. She's feeling herself :) I can barely remember what it looked […]

January was the longest month, maybe ever!!! There were a lot of days--so many days--that just blend together, but I love to take a minute at the ended of every month to pull out a few highlights of the month. We just got back from a wonderful work trip to Las Vegas where we shared […]
No company paid to be part of this review. All reviews are honest and based on our tests, conducted. Between my wife and I, we'll use six to eight shaker bottles a day. We'll use a shaker for daily greens and probiotics in the morning, a shaker bottle for preworkout, blender bottles for BCAAs and […]
Loafers: A Love Story. That was the alternate title for this blog post :) As much as I love my sneaks and have been known to throw on a heel or two for something fancy — I am hard-pressed to find an occasion for which I cannot wear loafers. Workday meetings: loafers, jeans, blazer. Church […]
There's been a lot of talk about resolutions this month, and I'm here for it. One of my sisters has a goal this year to "romanticize her life at home," and I love this. She's all about unlocking new ways to love where she lives and how she lives there. We had some girl talk […]
When I was growing up, we'd visit my Grandma, who kept a cowbell in the kitchen. Whenever dinner was ready, she'd ring the bell, and it would clang loud enough to let those in her third floor bedrooms know that there was food on the table. The sound became Pavlovian for me, and now when […]
We're a couple weeks into 2024, and it's usually about now when the motivation to keep our New Year's resolutions begins to fizzle out. Did you know that there is something called National Quitter's Day? It's a different day every year (always within the 2nd or 3rd week of January) when most people quit their […]
I'm a crewneck sweater girlie. I'm not big on v-necks or hoods (they're not absent from my wardrobe, I just don't gravitate toward them), and there's something so classic about a crewneck — like you could leave any moment on a nautical voyage or get tagged in for a game of touch football. I've been […]
For Chris's birthday, I got him a cold plunge tub. We've both been reading up on all of the health benefits of cold water immersion, and Chris has even been dabbling in some cryotherapy (my personal form of torture). So, after knowing it's been on his wishlist, I took the plunge and surprised him with […]
