Fashion Friday: Edition apparently the focus is on comfort

Diary

Here's what I've been doing this week. Working on some chapters for my next book and sitting out in the cold at soccer games. I think this explains why this week tends to be focused on clothes that are warm and cozy and could potentially double as pajamas, although there are a few exceptions. Here are some cute things I found this week: 1. clayton sweater I ran in Anthropologie Read More

Fashion Friday: Edition it’s a three day weekend

Fashion

Happy Friday! I'm currently in a hotel room in Austin and it's actually Thursday afternoon, but I've been looking forward to Friday since Monday so I'm going to go ahead and wish us all a happy Friday. And this isn't any kind of transition at all, but I have been meaning to mention that I find myself posting a lot more often on Instagram these days because it's just easy. In many ways, Read More

This and that on a Tuesday

Another day

I haven't done one of these posts in forever, but I had a few things I wanted to share that I thought you may or may not be interested in. 1. A new dinner recipe I don't know why this has been such a challenge for me lately, but I think it's a combination of being tired of all my usual meals and trying to get back in the swing of real life after the holidays. On Sunday night, P asked me Read More

Fashion Friday: Edition as I sit in Starbucks between soccer games

Diary, Fashion

I woke up at the crack of dawn on Thursday morning because Caroline had to be at school at 5:50 a.m. to catch a bus for school soccer. For those of you unfamiliar (myself included) this means it was still dark outside. Even Piper and Mabel were looking at us like "Why are we up in the middle of the night?" P dropped her off and then I poured an extra strength cup of coffee before I finally Read More

Fashion Friday: Edition Welcome to 2019

Diary, Fashion

Well. Here we are in 2019. It's not quite the way I thought it would look based on watching The Jetsons when I was younger, but I can get groceries delivered right to my door so there's that. I hope you've all had a good first three days of 2019. Ours has involved a lot of Netflix, a 1000 piece puzzle and sweatpants. I'll miss you, Christmas vacation, you've been good to us. Here are Read More

Fashion Friday: Edition this doubles as a Christmas recap

Another day, Diary, Fashion

Well. I hope you all had a delightful Christmas and that Santa brought you some things you wanted and/or you got gift cards to go buy those things for yourself. We had a good one at our house and I decided I should probably go ahead and recap it for posterity's sake before it's 2019. Also, if I don't document it, I may forget everything as soon as I come down from the carb/sugar/wine/cheese Read More

Fashion Friday: Edition the last one before Christmas

Diary, Fashion

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you are essentially just about out of shopping days left until Christmas. So if you still have gifts left to buy, I would suggest that you throw yourself on either the mercy of Amazon Prime or prepare yourself to face the hell that is your local mall. Also, I was in Walgreens earlier this week and they had a nice selection of "As Seen On TV" items that Read More
