The kids are back in school after 2 weeks of winter break and it was one of my favorite times with my family and friends. I say it often but it just gets better and better with the boys, especially when it comes to traveling. We had a jam packed Christmas and then jetted off to Wisconsin to visit family and show our friends our second home and why we love it so much. I hope my boys remember it … [Read more...]

H E A T H E R Lumi Glotion - I have shared the Lumi glotion before as I use it as a skin primer before I apply my foundation to achieve that glowy, dewy look but I recently discovered that putting it on your body is another fun hack. I apply it with a brush on my neck, chest and arms if I am going to an event and it makes any imperfections go away and gives you that shimmery, moisturized look … [Read more...]

Happy New Year! While I’m not a big fan of the whole ”new year new me” thing, I do like to reflect on the previous year and see what worked and what needs to be adjusted. If something went well, but there is room to continue to progress then I like to build on to the previous year’s intention. To help you brainstorm some intentions for 2025 I thought I would put together a list of healthy … [Read more...]

These pajamas.. I wish they weren’t $200 but keeping an eye on them and hoping they go on sale at some point. Also love these pajamas for a chic, classic look. The white may be a bit dangerous but I think they’re so luxe at a great price point. Nancy Meyers meets Ralph Lauren home aesthetic. I love that a traditional look and feel to the home is becoming more and more popular. I want to walk … [Read more...]

H E A T H E R Bringing really similar energy into 2025 that I did this past year because it was a good one. Taking care of my mind and body is first and foremost.. self care, walks, weights, lots of water and some pickleball when time allows. Traveling with my family on ski trips, back to Wisconsin as often as we can, and hopefully another Hawaii trip is in the cards. Lastly, girls … [Read more...]

Reading is one of my favorite hobbies and I set the goal to read (and listen) to 45 books in 2024. I’ve currently finished 57 books and hope to finish a few more in the next 2 weeks, but I wanted to round up my top 10 books this year. A few favorites are series that I lumped into one. I get through so many books because I’m typically listening to a book and reading a book at the same time. I … [Read more...]

NARS Concealer It’s always been difficult for me to find a concealer that doesn’t crease in my under eye until I discovered NARS concealer (I am shade Vanilla). I always apply this after my foundation (the IT cc cream + the concealer is a winning combo) and before my powder. I think I finally found the perfect formula for smooth under eyes but also provides full coverage without caking or … [Read more...]
