I Listened to Your Podcast Suggestions (..And Am Ready For More)

Once I listen to a podcast, I can’t stop.  I’m insatiable and digest the content quickly–while I’m in the car, doing housework, writing emails–it’s all free podcast time.  Last fall I talked about some podcasts that I LOVED (check them out here); About half are about fashion start-ups, entrepreneurs, or best friends gabbing, but other […]

I Tried Beautycounter Skincare (+ Incorporated Them Into My Nighttime Routine!)

For me, the clean beauty movement started with deodorant.  My mom always avoided antiperspirants and as I did my own research, I realized how harmful it was to let your skin absorb these toxic ingredients.  As I became more and more interested in skincare (that wasn’t until my late 20s), I was drawn towards effective […]

Meet Fin

I’m busy, you’re busy, we’re all busy–especially this time of year.  In this past year, I left my 9-5 (I mean, it wasn’t 9-5 at all, but you all get what I’m saying) job to work for myself.  With that, I thought, great!  I’m going to have so much time and freedom…um wrong.  I’m hustling […]

Need New Bedding? A Brooklinen Review

So, we’re currently living in our guest bedroom while our master bath/bedroom is being renovated (see our renovation priorities here).  It’s temporary but it’s really tight in there. I haven’t done anything to the room and after living here for the past six weeks, I realized the sheets from 2007 need to go.  We received […]
