Diary

So Fashion Friday is today since Friday is Caroline's birthday and I always write a birthday letter on that day. But it just means you can shop that much sooner. You may also want to keep in mind that the Nordstrom Anniversary sale ends on Sunday so if there's something you want, you need to go ahead and get it. Plus, some things that were out of stock are back in stock. Personally, I'd been Read More

All I can say is thank goodness we have almost reached the end of July. It has been insanely hot and I am, quite frankly, over it.

I knew it wasn't necessarily my best outfit, but I had neglected to pack a better casual option and it was rainy and gross and we were going Read More

But here are some cute things I found this week while I sat in the air-conditioning and searched the internet. 1. adidas original muscle tank I've been working out with Caroline twice a week this summer (Disclaimer: When I Read More

All last week the weather forecasters kept talking about a "rain event" that was going to bring anywhere from "zero to six inches of rain". Way to hedge your bets, meteorologists. There's somewhere between a zero and one hundred percent chance that you might win the lottery. Congratulations. Anyway, I was really hoping for some good rainy days this week because it's been so hot, but it turns Read More
