It’s that lovely time of year. If you live above the Mason-Dixon line, you know what I’m talking about: warm days that tease us and give hope of spring, then snow showers and below-freezing temperatures the next. It’s like I have amnesia every year; I always think it will be warm in March…yet, it’s not. […]
Topshop does a great job of bringing runway trends to consumers at a great price. But one of my favorite things about the brands is the classic staples they carry. Take this oversized jean jacket for instance: Topshop puts their fashion-forward spin on a wardrobe essential–it’s oversized and just plain cool. (Just for reference, I […]
I’ve got new home on the brain. As you know from last week, we closed (yay) but we aren’t moving until April. Why? I’m skim-coating the walls (it’s currently bumpy plaster), repainting the whole house (Benjamin Moore ‘White Dove’), painting the moldings/trim (Benjamin Moore ‘White Dove’ in semi-gloss) and re-staining the hardwood floors (the ‘Provincial’ […]
It’s another rendition of ‘you ask, I answer.’ Spring break is upon us and sadly, I have no plans with the impending move (I’m pretty sure we’re moving on Easter) BUT for you lucky folks who are heading down south, I’ve rounded up some very cute swim cover ups that you can easily transition […]

And sometimes, just sometimes, I hear the birds singing. Yes, my friends, spring is near. It’s so close […]
Quite a week I’ve had! We closed on our house in the suburbs, I took a quick NYC trip and that was only three days of it. I can’t wait to share some of our house with you all. We’re doing some painting before we move in (along with skim coating, which smooths out the […]
So many pre-spring sales happening and it’s kind of funny because spring hasn’t even happened yet! Nevertheless, I love buying stuff on sale so I’m here to tell you what I bought from the Shopbop pre-spring sale, because it’s ALL on sale. Yes, I ordered all six of these items and I can’t wait to […]
I’m feeling the polka dots this spring. There’s something so fun and punchy about them that makes me just think warm weather thoughts. Speaking of warm weather, it’s not happening for us here in Chicago. It’s cold out there (just look at the background of my photos–not a green leaf in sight) and this may […]
