It’s Sunday morning. Matt’s been away for the last 2 nights. Basically that means I haven’t showered since Friday morning. My hair? Oh, man… it’s not pretty. It’s sporting an “ugly” kind of wave right now, only a wave that can be made from sleeping on it with a ponytail. I didn’t have time to shower this morning (again) or [...]

Would you or Wouldn’t you ROCK Camo Jeans? I saw a pair of these last night… … and I’m not so sure. I have to admit, I love camo. I think it’s very cool and very chic when it’s worn properly. More something like this… But it seems camo jeans for women are making quite the splash! So tell me… [...]

On Monday I spent about 2 hours on the phone with one of my blogging friend’s Danielle Smith from Extraordinary Mommy. She recently wrote a post, “You want Honest? I’ll give you honest” that just really hit home with me and so many other moms. Well, Danielle… you inspired me! As I’ve gotten to be older (ahem… the wise age [...]

It’s THAT time! It’s BEACH TIME! For me, there’s nothing like it… the beach is the place I go to unwind, relax and watch my sons have a blast in the water and in the sand. So what’s a mama need for the BEACH? zulily has an incredible A Day at the Beach Boutique LIVE right now through June 23rd. [...]

So far… here’s been my PINK month of October: We’re having fun with this… really seeing [...]

When I was a little girl, my mother would buy my sister and I a Fisherman’s sweater every Fall. That sort of marked the whole back-to-school and fall-is-officially-here thing for me. It’s funny, even at 5 years old my mother said I would sit and try and make as many outfits as I could using my Fisherman’s sweater as the [...]

There are a few things in life I’m cool with knowing: 1.  I will never have art hanging on the walls in an art gallery. 2.  I will never star on broadway. 3.  I will never work in a science lab. 4.  I will never be on Project Runway (or so I thought…) Believe me… I will never be on [...]

Trend Alert: Bejeweled Sandals Every season there are some must-have sandals. Last year it was all about the gladiators… and believe me, they’re everywhere again this summer, too. BUT! There’s another style/trend out there right now – BEJEWELED SANDALS. Jeweled sandals are a hit right now. What I love about them is that they almost act as an accessory. You [...]

There are days when you’re running late. You were supposed to have the kids to school or to practice or to the game 10 minutes ago! What do you do if you just look… well, like you rolled out of bed? Have that EMERGENCY GO-TO OUTFIT.

I’m a high heel wearer. I love wearing heels with jeans. My mother? Oh, brother… ask anyone who knows her. I swear, if you ever see her without some sort of heel, I will owe you a $1.
