Call me late to the party, but I’ve recently become obsessed with high-low dresses. I love that they’re as effortless as a maxi dress, while still adding a bit of glam and chicness to an ensemble. Dress them up with a pair of high heeled, strappy sandals, and some bling, or keep it casual with […]

RIP Grama
{Editor’s Note: For those of you who don’t know, my dad’s mother – my Grama – passed away on July 13, 2014. She had been battling cancer for a few years, and unfortunately she lost that fight. On Sunday, July 20 I gave the eulogy at her funeral service. Below is the eulogy in its […]
Sometimes Things…
{… I apologize in advance for this post. It’s kind of just a bit of a pity party, but it’s one of the benefits of owning your own little piece of the Internet.} Sometimes things are weird. Life has this funny way of knocking you down and building you right back up again. Honestly, […]
Good Karma.
There are some days when I sit back and think what did I do to deserve this? Sometimes I think it in a good way, and sometimes I think it in a bad way. Yesterday, I thought it in both ways. I got some news that, while not particularly devastating, was certainly not what I wanted – […]
The Duchess of Cambridge Pulls Double Duty
The Duchess of Cambridge (nee Kate Middleton) was out and about yesterday at two official royal engagements.

Wedding Wednesday | Engagement Photos, Part 1
Our engagement photos are coming up this weekend, and all I can say is… how random. On the one hand, it feels kind of like being back in school for picture day (What will I wear? What if my hair doesn’t cooperate?!), and on the other it’s one of these wedding moments that make the […]
Desk Perfection
So this whole working from home thing is amazing… except for all the times that it isn’t. It’s not that I don’t love being my own boss and setting my own schedule (I do!), it’s just that – well – sometimes I get a little sick of being inside my apartment. And that’s the thing – […]
Lusting After | Sunglasses
You guys, I have an addiction. It isn’t drugs, or booze, or even caffeine (okay, maybe a little caffeine). It’s sunglasses. (… and purses.) I don’t know why, but I feel like sunglasses are the accessory that perfectly completes any ensemble. Ray-Ban Aviator Flash Lenses, $170.00 I mean seriously, how cute are those?! I adore the […]
