Dirty Diaper

Zach to his daughter: Did you poop again? I knew I should’ve waited. Nat: I’m loving every minute of this. Zach: Come over here and help. Nat: No! You know how many mornings I’ve done 3 in a row? Zach (changing the diaper) Oh, it’s small. Nat: You sound disappointed. Zach: If I’m gonna get in here, it…

Montauk Getaway

 I consider time away with kids: a trip, something more than a few days without them: a vacation and anything shorter: a getaway. Our trip to Montauk was most definitely a getaway and in the best way. Zach and I were both feeling the need for a little break, my parents were itching to watch Lilly…

Cinco de Mayo

There’s not many holidays we love more around here than the good old 5th of May. Any excuse to drink a marg, scoop some guac and shout olé seems good enough to us. But Mexican restaurants are always packed so, much like Valentine’s Day, I prefer to go out pre or post and leave the…

Speed Dial with Jeff & Kelly Mindell

If you’re on Instagram, you know these faces. They’re legends in their respective fields and, together, taking the world one giant balloon and colorful wall at a time. Kelly, founder of Studio DIY, and, her husband and photographer, Jeff Mindell are sought after visionaries being hired by companies like Coca-Cola, Tic Tac and Fox for Grease Live. Kelly’s…

Birthday Party

Nat, Zach and Lilly are on the birthday party circuit. Almost every weekend, there’s one or two. It’s nap time and Nat is wrapping presents on the living room floor. Zach is trying to watch some Harrison Ford movie.  Nat: Oh no, we’re out of Scotch tape? Nat: These scissors suck. Nat: This masking tape is killing…

Kickin’ It, Monday Style

Love a flowing maxi skirt with sneaks this season. Really loving kicks with anything. It may be the mom in me. I prefer to think it’s the New Yorker; I walk way too much for heels. Good thing tennies are on-trend! I paired it with a gray turtleneck sweater but it would look equally great…

Joules

I’m a sucker for a good pair of rain boots. I won’t tell you how many I own because you might judge me but, suffice it to say, I could live in London. Or Seattle. Or send some to people in each location and still be covered here. My daughter has inherited her mother’s obsession and…

Favorite Flats for Spring

Spring is here! Hallelujah! The thing I’m most excited about? No socks, no boots. Free feet. When my friend asked me over a group text for suggestions for some new flats and everyone else weighed in, “me too!” I knew there was a post there. That and I spent hours finding the perfect shoes for…

Disney World

Zach and I debated when to take Lilly to Disney for the first time. I was anxious to get there and begin her lifelong love affair. He was… not. We’ve established that it’s an extremely special place for me, warranting all new attire but he didn’t grow up going, isn’t really a ride person, abhors waiting in lines, crowds.…

Floral Bomber Jackets

She’s Hollywood’s “It Girl”, a new Oscar winner and a fashion maven? Brie Larson can do no wrong. Which is why I wasn’t surprised when she showed up on Live with Kelly and Michael the morning after the Academy Awards, having not yet gone to sleep and still looking fabulous. Floral bomber, black skinnies and heels.…

In-Depth with Bobbie Thomas

You know her from The Today Show where, as Style Editor, she dishes about fashion and beauty but “professional girlfriend” Bobbie Thomas shares more than just the latest trends. We followed her journey to marriage and motherhood including a very public struggle to conceive via IVF. Now, with the same candor, vulnerability and kindness, Bobbie bravely opens…

Wild Bowl

I’m obsessed with Sweet Green. If you don’t know about this “salad place” yet, it’s locally sourced, healthy, seasonal fare that’s always inspired. None more so than their latest “Harvest Bowl”, a mix of kale, sweet potatoes, chicken, goat cheese, apples, almonds and wild rice tossed in a balsamic vinaigrette. After days of Disney debauchery, it’s necessary…
