The Micro Bag + a Gorj Giveaway

Have you seen how cute, and little bags are getting now? They are all about being micro’d and structured these days. So, bags are getting smaller…. phones are getting bigger. Makes no sense, but fashion bear don’t care! I already have a few micros I wear on pretty heavy rotation, but just added a new, black

The Wednesday Waltz

Gooood morning! Wednesdays always feel a bit like a fast-paced dance to me – a lot has to happen, and it takes quick mama thinking, COFFEE, and practiced, precisely-executed, choreographed, dance moves to get everything done, and little people where they need to be on time. And COFFEE. It’s a lot o’ wurrrk, and I

A Little Undone

I follow J.Crew’s style motto of “leave something just a little bit undone” to the letter, most days – mostly by accident (I’m a mom of 4 young things! Something is always undone!). Like an un-ironed, travel-rumpled shirt? Nailed it. Honestly though, I love my clothes to feel, and be, lived in – makes me

Spring Boots

I get asked about boots a lot, and for good reason! Boots go with everything, and are the type of shoe you can wear pretty much year ’round (maybe just not July – feet need some breathing room that month). So, I thought I’d share with you two of my current go-to pairs (also seen and

Catch of the Day

Oooh, it feels like spring, and Mama has brand new stripes + flares. Life is good. We took our little ducklings to a small harbor with a park recently, and it was so nice to be outside in the mild, sunny weather, just watching boats, and running around on the grass. When life is simple,

Sporty Spice

Come on, youuu remember the Spice Girls, right?? Sooo, tell me whatcha want, whatcha really, really want… I jammed OUT to that many a time back in the day. My favorite was Sporty Spice, because I was kind of a jock/tomboy, and was way more interested in sports than fashion at the time. I thought wearing

White About Now

Time to bust out the white denim! For no reason really, other than it’s been a while, and I’ve missed them. The new, improved, fashion rules that you can live by are: there are no rules. So, throw out whatever nonsense you’ve heard about wearing/not-wearing white before/after/during Easter or Labor Day, and wear what ya

Olive + Lilac

So, hi, I’m a mom. Never felt more like one than this morning. A little thing like a fever and bronchitis-from-death never stops us moms from doing our thang (thang translates to 1.8 million daily tasks), right? Totally right. Sooo weird that this never seems to apply to dads….?;) Anyway, I don’t always prance around

Girlfriends + Boyfriends

Happpppy Friiiiiiday!! I had the best time last night with some dear gal pals of mine. I don’t think I’ve laughed so much, or so hard, in years. Good for the soul, I tell ya! So grateful for old friendships re-kindled, and brand-new ones set alight. So. If you’re good on the girlfriend front, but
