6 Things You Should Never Say to a Mom Who’s Miscarried
I heard it all after I miscarried– the assumptions, the inappropriate questions, the WebMD–worthy diagnoses. And I get it. People don’t know what to do. Many, for the fear of saying the wrong thing simply say nothing at all and I understand that too. They don’t know how or when to bring it up, don’t want…

Despite doing the best with what I had (and two makeovers: a winter and a spring look), I’m so excited to finally get my own office! Working from home, it’s kind of a necessity. I can’t wait to have space, organization and inspiration instead of being crammed into the corner of my kitchen- and right next…
Read MoreMy Top 8 Takeaways from the Alt Summit 2017 Conference
So we’ve established the fact that Alt Summit 2017 was seriously fun. But what did I learn? Because despite what my husband, friends and family thought (Brooke and I ditched our responsibilities and the cold for three days and ran around the desert snapping 4,000 photos when not sitting poolside sipping cocktails and mocktails.), we…
Read MoreAlt Summit 2017
You know when things are just meant to be? The universe is trying to tell you something? I’d been eyeing the Alt Summit conference ever since I started blogging two years ago. It looked like so much fun and and I knew I needed to attend one day. Then, last year I was in Palm…
Read MoreDesign Board
Back at it again! We just put the finishing touches on Lilly’s room and now it’s time for her baby brother’s! And about six or seven more rooms! In case you missed it, we’re moving. To a house. From a two-bedroom, small NYC apartment so there’s many more spaces that need furnishing. It’s a dream come…
Read MoreArt Basel
I don’t know about you, but I know nothing about art. In fact, Art History was the subject I struggled with most in college (meanwhile my sister majored in it). That could be due to the fact the professor was a major biatch though. Anyway, I still know nothing, just what I like and don’t.…
Read MoreBumpin’ It in Blue
By this point, we know I’m obsessed with polka dots, off-the-shoulder and blue. So when I saw this maternity dress, I knew I had to have it. And, at $34, it was totally possible! I refuse to spend a lot of money on maternity wear since (even though it doesn’t seem like it) I’ll be out of…
Read MoreLilly’s Room Reveal
Well, you chose it all and we did it! It’s just taken me quite awhile (after a few backordered items finally arrived) to put the finishing touches together, photograph and share it. But, without further ado, may I present to you: Lilly’s Big Girl Room Reveal! (Above pillows: stripe, bunny, knit apple, dream) It went from this to this… Bye bye crib, hello…
Read MoreBumpdate, 18 Weeks
I’m officially 18 weeks although it feels like 1,800. Since there wasn’t much time between my last pregnancy and this one, I didn’t lose all the new weight I’d put on and the emotional recovery lasted longer than I’d like, I truly feel as if it’s been one, long, bad pregnancy. Don’t get me wrong,…
Read MoreA Day in Venice
I’ve been to LA a lot. Even lived there. (Although that part of my life kind of feels like a dream.) So to do a travel piece on a place you know so well and have explored a ton is challenging as there’s so much to include. With that in mind, I decided to focus…
Read MoreMy Favorite Skillet Dishes
Ok, the first one is a total cheat because they’re canned cinnamon rolls. But doesn’t the skillet make them look so much more fun and appetizing than on just a plain old cookie sheet? Your guests will be impressed. More one-dish, skillet meals below including dessert! Egg Scrambles Cheater Donuts Feta Shrimp Skillet Mini Skillet…
Read MoreThe Greenbrier
My sister and her family, who live in Virginia, have been going to The Greenbrier for years but we’d never been so when it came time to meet my family somewhere for MLK weekend and she suggested it, I was all in; I love checking out new places. I just didn’t realize how far it was and…
