Everyday eyeshadow
I thought it would be fun to showcase some of my favorite beauty products and easy how-tos on the Fashion page, starting with my favorite eyeshadow technique. I want to preface this by saying I don’t know a ton about makeup, and have a pretty easy routine. But, there are two things I (think I?)…

How’s your day going? Ours has been relaxing and lovely. Livi slept until 9am! I was dressed and waiting for her to wake up, and she snoozed away. I almost went to wake her up, but remembered the wise advice to never wake a sleeping baby. 😉 So I made us both some pancakes for us…

Hi friends! Happy Monday! Anything exciting going on this week? Anyone recovering from a weekend race? The Pilot ran 18 miles yesterday. 18!! That’s 5 more than I will ever run, and I can say that with full confidence. Even though I have to admit I had a little bit of running jealousy, I’m still…

For the half marathon I didn’t run. I’m supposed to be finishing the race as this post goes up, but instead, I’m at home drinking coffee after a nice night of sleep. I’ll never know if I would have crossed the finish line triumphantly, because in my mind, I pictured myself hobbling to a medical…

An amazing Halloween with the fam. I can’t believe how much our little sushi roll has grown in the past year! Last year: This year: My heart <3 After work, I met up with a couple of girlfriends for a quick sangria and planning for a huge Soli Beat event, and then came home to…

Wishing you and your family a happy Halloween! May it be filled with your pumpkin desires (which could be none at all or give.me.all.the.pumpkin– there’s no in between, right?), something chocolate-y and a feeling in your heart like the one this adorable fairy gives me every day <3 And dear Bell, please forgive me for…

Livi and I got a little stir crazy the other day. It’s a teething week, but the kind where you can’t help but wonder if a little cold is along with it -runny nose, a little crank- so we stayed home from our Tuesday playdates. I was trying to think of something fun but low-key…

Hi friends! Thank you so much for the kind words about our move. While it’s a little overwhelming, as all moves can be, I’m excited for the new experience and opportunities 🙂 Dinner last night had to be quick and easy, since I taught an evening drum/Zumba class with Sasha. I’d seen this on one…

Hi friends! How’s your morning going? It’s a cozy one over here and I’m excited to see what adventures we get into today. Fall brings the excitement of many things, but I have to say that the return of Wildcat basketball is pretty high on the list. It was the first “real” game of the…

For yesterday’s recovery day, I took a complimentary yoga class at lululemon with my friend Ashley. When we go, we never really check who is teaching or what we’re doing, because it’s guaranteed to be good. I walked into class just before it started, and Ashley looked over at me and said, “We’re doing acro…
