For me, nothing is more thrilling than a total-space transformation. But you don't have to break the bank to get a jump-start on great design. I've chunked out a dreamy $3000 outdoor space below, in $1,000 increments, with mood boards that build on one another (though, honestly, I would love any of these boards a […]
In the past I've done a few posts called "Good Looking Ugly Stuff" because your toilet brushes and cleaning tools shouldn't have to be ugly. I'm the kind of person who is genuinely happier when every thing in our home, down to the dish rag, is in harmony with one another aesthetically. It might sound […]
After reviewing and ranking duvet inserts and pillow inserts you all spoke up and asked that we test some bed pillows! Here's the thing though, everybody has different pillow preferences when it comes to sleep so it's hard to rank. BUT, we couldn't let you down so we ordered a bunch of highly rated bed […]
I've never been much of a "ceiling fan in the bedroom" type. I find white noise very irritating and since I wouldn't use the fan function, I don't usually hang them! That being said, a fan in a home gym is something I find to be totally necessary! When I was searching for a fan […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Something I'm working on this year (besides having more fun), is dialing in on my routines! I've learned that any time I want to start implementing a new habit or resolution in my life, it's most likely to succeed if I attach it to my already successful routine! Routines over resolutions! Years ago, I started […]
If I'm being honest, one thing I was dreading with moving was finding a new hair person... Little did I know that I would quickly fall in love with the first hair person I went to (found her on Instagramthe first hair person I went to (found her on Instagram)! Combine that with the humidity […]
I get asked almost every day about an item of makeup I'm wearing. I'm definitely a creature of habit and wear the same thing nearly EVERY DAY, day or night. It's shifted a little bit since the last time I shared back in 2019, so I figured it was time for an update. Here's what […]
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 […]
The majority of July we spent in sweats or swimming in hotels, but those sweats (and swimsuit!) happen to have made the list of my favorites in July so I think we're calling it a win all around! Keep reading to see what else made this list! 1. Hera Chain Necklace $68 My bff, […]
At the end of every month, we love to look back and see what resonated with YOU the most. So today, I'm excited to share THE BEST OF MAY. These are the things you saw me talk about and share this month that you loved the most. You asked about them over and over and […]
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 […]
I still haven't sent our Christmas cards out--partly, okay mostly, because they haven't arrived yet--and half of our house is currently covered in plastic because the painters showed up YESTERDAY to paint the entry and Faye's room and the hallway and Polly's room and our ceilings, finally. We're still short a shower door and even […]
Art | Art light | Area Rug | Shearling Bench | Music cabinet | record player | music room light | sconces Remember the art that I was thinking of for the living room?? Well it got here, and is incredible (and currently 25% off!) and fit turns out, it's so much better in the front […]
This month we shared our favorite fall candles, and shared Andi's budget kitchen makeover, and finally made the list of our favorite house-warming gifts. We gave the family room a dramatic makeover and now we hang out down there ALL the time. We laid peel and stick floor tile, and ogled over our finished stone […]
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 […]
