School will look a little different this year for most of us but like Alix said in her back to school post for Quinn, we can still get our kids excited for a new school year whether that be in the classroom or at home. My boys and I went to Nordstrom a couple of weeks ago to get sized for new shoes and we ended up leaving with new backpacks, clothes, water bottles, AND shoes. Not intentional at … [Read more...]

Last year she was a tadpole and this year she's a frog! Summer is winding down and fall is right around the corner. Before you know it pumpkin spice everything will be taking over your Instagram feed. However, the transition back to school this year is not so simple. Hardly! But, whether or not your child is heading back into the classroom (not having that debate here ;)), I feel like … [Read more...]

We can't say certain words in our blog posts anymore but what we can say are things like save versus splurge. So today's post is about recent Amazon "saves" I found that could be mistaken for their … [Read more...]

In the past I've loaded up on all.the.things. every blogger told me "I had to have". I would get all the trendy pieces and spent way too much money. This sale gets a lot of buzz every year and for good reason. It's a fun sale and there are things that go on sale that never would otherwise.

I won't be sharing every single item from the #Nsale like a lot of others out there who insist how #perfect every item is and how much you need it. This is just a sale.. not the end of the world and no, you don't need every basic tee from Nordstrom just … [Read more...]

| bodysuit | shorts | sandals |sunnies | similar hat | I love this article about the lifestyle changes this blogger made to help her get pregnant naturally. Even if you're not trying to conceive this article really breaks where you can make changes to improve your exposure to hormone disrupting toxins and how to clean up your lifestyle. I've already made a lot of similar changes with the … [Read more...]

If you've been living under a rock, then you wouldn't know that the #NSALE was postponed and coming up.. like TOMORROW for Icon Status members (more on that later). I wrote this post last year gearing up for the sale. It contains pertinent information about becoming a cardholder and why that might be fairly important if you want to snag some of the best deals. While the dates are a bit different … [Read more...]

Hey babes! Hope you all had a great weekend.. ours was full of sunshine and lots of play but I always love getting back into the groove of a new week! Today I decided to do another roundup of deals and steals I've seen lately. I swear, stores are GIVING stuff away right now so thought I'd share some favorite finds for a great price! This lounge set is so soft.. the Honeydew brand has always … [Read more...]

Tomorrow is my 34th birthday and I can honestly say this year went by faster than any other.. even in quarantine! And while this year has had its set of challenges, it was one of growth and learning for which I am grateful.
