The handkerchief dress trend is one I’m still not 100% sure I love. Sometimes, I think it’s just absolutely the cutest, and other times, I feel like Tinker Bell. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I just prefer to dress like a grown-up vs. a child-like fairy (lol). But when I saw this dress (it’s under $30!), I decided to… View Post
Do you remember Rainbow Bright? I do. I had a doll and I even had a Rainbow Bright costume one Halloween. Rainbow striped things have been my thing ever since then. In college, I even rocked a rainbow striped bed spread that was from deliA*s (do you remember that brand? I was obsessed in late HS and early college). Rainbow… View Post
Getting to travel for my day job is a major perk. I love getting to experience new places and cultures. This wasn’t my first time in Detroit, but I hadn’t been back since I was 8 or 9 years old. I forgot there there are a lot of cool things to do in Detroit. Detroit holds a little extra specialness… View Post
I can distinctly remember my parents warning me about becoming a parent. They told me how hard it was and how much it would change my life. They didn’t really talk about any of the positives. I remember thinking at the time – wow, my parents regret ever having me. I don’t actually think that’s the case, I think they… View Post
Spring has finally arrived in Boston. I am almost ready to put away my boots and coats, and I even broke out a dress last week. Even though it’s not quite warm enough for summery clothes, I’m ready to update my spring makeup. If you’re ready to try some new products for spring, I’ve pulled some of the ones I’m… View Post
This post is sponsored by Hotter Shoes for the PRIMP Network. All opinions are my own. What’s your go-to weekend outfit or, if you’re a mama, what’s your ‘momiform’? Mine varies depending on the season, but most of the year, it’s jeans, and a t-shirt with a layer on top. I personally love wearing blazers and jackets because I think… View Post
If you follow my blog or instagram, you know. Scratch that. I loooooovvveeee street art. Seriously, I’m obsessed. Everywhere I travel, I make an effort to find street art. I personally love the juxtaposition of a city and the art, out there for everyone to see, and hopefully, appreciate. I’ve been to a lot of cities and written about a… View Post
Do you clean your house every week? I spot-clean when I notice things aren’t as clean as I’d like, but I definitely don’t do a thorough clean as often as I’d like. Now that spring has finally arrived in Boston, spring cleaning is on my mind. But here’s the thing, there are a lot of places I have not cleaned… View Post
New York is one of my favorite cities. So much so, that we almost moved there in 2011. I was this close to accepting a job in the city. Often, I wonder what my life would have been like had I made that decision. I try not to dwell on the past too much, but New York remains one of… View Post

Honestly, I wasn’t sure it was a trend I wanted to get behind, but then I found these gold mules and knew I had to give them a try. If you ever wondered how to wear mules, this post is for you. The great… View Post

This post has been sponsored by Clorox®. All thoughts and opinions are my own. We are all busy. When I tell people I work full-time as an Assistant Dean at a university and I also have a blog and two kids under 6, they don’t know how I do it. Well, I honestly fail quite a bit. What I’ve found… View Post
This post is sponsored by Trunk Club. All opinions are my own. I consider myself a pretty savvy shopper, even a bit of a fashionista. I didn’t really think of myself as someone who needed style advice, but that all changed when I met my Trunk Club stylist, Katelyn. When I first learned about Trunk Club, I wasn’t sure it… View Post
After a workout, I often enjoy a simple protein shake. Usually, I’ll just use almond milk (light, unsweetened vanilla flavor, btw), and a scoop of whey. If I’m feeling extra hungry, I might throw in a tablespoon of peanut butter. Most of the time, this protein shake just serves to tide me over until it’s meal time. However, there’s no… View Post
After a long day at work, I hurriedly rush into my kids’ preschool, only to find them covered in slime. I’m tired. It’s been a long day. Now I get to help peel slime off their hands, clothes, arms, so they won’t taint my car with that sticky messy stuff. Don’t get me wrong, I loved playing with slime when… View Post
