The Denim Styles You Need to Know About for Fall 2021

Fall denim is here and y'all, I couldn't be more excited! I was pregnant with Charlie during the spring so even though I was wanting to shop all the spring denim, I was obviously limited to maternity options (find my favorites here). Now that fall is coming soon, I'm over-ordering probably way too many pairs to find what works for my postpartum body. Although I'm in between sizes and definitely not in my pre-baby jeans, I'm accepting it and recently ordered a few new pairs to fit my body as is. ...

Tips for Balancing Work + Life

I posted a question box about 'work/life balance' a couple of weeks ago on IGS and it got such a huge response that I knew I needed to compile things into a blog post. First up, it seems like most people agree that it's nearly impossible, and also that there's just never going to be a perfect balance - which is fine. I've noticed more this year than ever before, with two boys, a full-time job, family stuff, working on some big projects, and just life, that my balance was suffering, and so was my mental health because of it. ...

What’s Still in Stock from the Nordstrom Sale

This Sunday 8/8 marks the final day of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale so I wanted to pull together what's still in stock. To be honest, there are actually a decent amount of sizes/inventory left in some of my top picks which I'm excited about and isn't always the case. Also, it's good to keep in mind that a lot of returns and size swaps will happen over the next couple weeks (or have already) and that Nordstrom will restock certain items when they can. So if you were eyeing something from my initial try-on haul, keep checking. ...

What’s In My Cart

Back with my monthly 'What's in My Cart' series and lots of good stuff right now. So much so that I wasn't able to fit this $50 Linen Blazer, Plaid Pajama Set or this Matching Knit Set...can you tell I'm feeling sets right now? Other than the sets, I think I'm most excited about this Graphic Club Sweatshirt. Anyways, hope you ladies enjoy my picks! Have a great week! ...

5 Airport Outfits That Are Easy + Stylish

Travel is back, at least in some capacity, so I thought I'd round up 5 of my favorite looks from previous trips. When it comes to flying (or travel in general) I keep comfort in mind, but I also like to feel somewhat pulled together - especially if I'm hitting the ground running for meetings or plans once I land. ...
