LOVING LATELY
It’s going up to 90 degrees today, so naturally, my mind is on all the summer things. I’m not quite ready for it to be this warm, but since I’m knee-deep in pollen and 98% humidity, I’m thinking of all the burl wood, polished nickel, lots of texture and a fresh pop of greenery. I…

The change in seasons always brings about a burst of color, which is always a welcome change from the doldrums of winter, but for me, crisp whites and lots of texture will always reign supreme when ushering in warmer weather and longer days. Rattan, bamboo, polished nickel and ironstone are fresh and classic and go…

Coming off of another weekend of glorious weather; it’s been so amazing to be outside in the fresh air before the temps skyrocket.

I mentioned in this post that for the last few years, I’ve really made a conscious effort to swap workout and athleisurewear for, at the very least, jeans and a sweater to elevate my look when running errands or volunteering at my kiddos’ school. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love nothing more than easy,…

The weather has been so glorious this entire week, it’s felt more like full-on spring than February!
